RULES.
i'm not an expert on the show. i binged 8 seasons in 2 weeks -- there's a lot that's happened that i've already forgotten about. i'm unfamiliar with the spin offs !
buck is a canonically queer character. he discovered his queerness later in life. despite him not being explicitly labelled as anything in the show - he just knows he likes girls & guys -, i portray him as bisexual.
i do not ship buck x tommy, but i do acknowledge their relationship & the effect it had on buck in realising a part of himself. likewise with buck x abby -- it was an important relationship for him, growth-wise, but i didn't care for it. in both relationships i didn't think there was a lot of chemistry, & with tommy specifically, i've found him quite condescending to buck even when it seemed he didn't mean to be. i also think viewing buck's best friend as ' the competition ' is a red flag tbh
buck & i are both well of age, & at the start of the show he considered himself a sex addict, so smut & nsfw may be present. it'll be tagged as nsfw /
i do ship buck x eddie, to no surprise. i write buck as having a big fat ol' crush on eddie, even if he doesn't act on it. i love their little dynamic, platonic or otherwise. regardless of what happens between them, that's his best friend, always.
regarding other possible ships : buck is canonically a very jealous person. he tries his best to be cool about it, but he's rarely been cool about anything in his life, thank u. āāāā¤·Ā on that topic, buck is considered the character to ' feels everything, all the time ' & can be super sensitive about things ( hence the jealousy ), & with that, plus his ' golden retriever personality ' & his sense of justice, i'm pretty damn sure he has undiagnosed adhd. he's just like me fr ( except i'm diagnosed lmao ). his rsd goes crazy, that's all i'm saying yk ?
common triggers on this blog are fire, blood, hospitals, medical issues, medical equipment, ( possible ) dv mentions, parental neglect mentions, etc. it's a show called 9-1-1, you kinda get what's written on the tin.
spam me with memes. send shippy ones to sus things out if you want. everything is a-ok in my book
i'll add to these if necessary <3
tba.
