It’s not even a headcanon so much as a perennial item near the top of my wishlist. Especially with Buck happy in a relationship, I want to see him making a move for career progression! We know he has some ambitions, and while he’s not quite ready to be captain, (though after this season I can finally see him actually getting there someday), nor would that be the right move for the show at this point, the two jobs between Firefighter/EMT III (which is what he, Eddie, Hen, and Chim all are) and Captain I (unclear if Bobby is Captain I, who runs a four-man team, or Captain II, who runs a station, but I think it’s implied that more than just our A-team report to Bobby, so I think he’s a Captain II, we just only see him with this team because TV) are Engineer and Truck Operator, which are equivalent to each other, but the Truck hates Buck, so.

Plus, in keeping with my actual headcanon that Buck was Sal’s replacement, they had that Probie driving the engine back then, which is uhhhh… unlikely under normal circumstances, and they knocked it off after S1, so I’m gonna continue in that vein that they were shorthanded at the time, hence Bobby training Buck personally, and a Probie with a few months of experience being allowed to drive a TWO MILLION DOLLAR piece of equipment and not always even with direct supervision. But he’s a good choice now!

I just think one of the dangers that shows like this, that are technically a procedural but very character-driven, face is stagnation. Like how we all knew Hen wasn’t going to actually leave to be a doctor. Them putting her on captain track works well to give her character a goal. I’d like to see the show end with her in that position, and with acknowledgement that someday Buck will be as well. I think that Chim is explicitly happy with where he’s at, and Eddie has never really shown interest in a leadership position (which is fine, god knows every time I’ve gotten to the point of being ~almost~ management, I’ve dipped on the job because fuuuucck thaaat! 😂)

Do you know of any post or meta of Tommy being on the scene of the bridge collapse?? 😯

i've seen posts that mention it yeah but to be honest i feel like the writers threw a name in there without thinking about it too much? if Tommy was there, he would've been in the chopper with Lucy, not on the ground taking orders from Bobby? that's my take on it

Ahhh, thank you @waywaychuck! I made it ironpope just for you. 🥰

"Ohhhhh, you're in for it now, asshole.”

“That’s a dollar in the swear jar,” Fish calls out, which Pope privately thinks is bullshit; there’s no way his kid can hear well enough through her layers of knit cap and snowsuit to pick up any bad language today.

Fish gets a snowball to the face for his trouble, accompanied by Benny’s cackling laughter and a delighted giggle from the baby.

The distraction is so effective Santiago wonders later if they’d all planned the ambush in advance (you’re paranoid, Will tells him with an affectionate eye roll, but still, he wonders). One second he’s upright and scanning the field around him, and the next moment he’s on his belly in the snow, all of Will’s body weight crushing him down from behind.

“What did you say I’m in for, motherfucker?” Will taunts, rumbling and amused and right there in his ear.

I'm on a Matthew McConaughey kick can you tell?
