I think people keep forgetting Bobby KNOWS Tommy. They worked together. They went to bars together. They ate together. Bobby probably encouraged Tommy to go to Harbor, so he can find his own path and grow.
So when Bobby says “he’s good for you”, that MEANS something.
"Buck was made bi for Buddie" - No, Buck has always been bisexual. He has been hinted to be bisexual for several seasons. Oliver never said Buck is straight. Buck is his own person with his own story and he fucking deserves his own romance, which he has. Right now. With Tommy.
I think we don’t talk enough about Chimney being the reason that Tommy is alive AND that Tommy and Buck met. It’s insane. If Chimney hadn’t joined the 118 none of this would have happened. Chimney IS the string.

Buck: "I wanted to spend a weekend on this farm with Tommy, you know, sleeping in the hay, riding a horse, taking hikes in the countryside and looking at the stars..."
Chimney: "Are there chickens?"
Buck: "Uh, yeah?"
Chimney: "Great. Have fun and take lots of pictures for me!😃"
This man's favourite movie is Love Actually, he flies helicopters into hurricanes for his friends, walks into hospitals with a soot-covered face to show up for his boyfriend and almost fell asleep at a Bachelor party. Oh, I'm sure he's malicious!
There’s no actual evidence that Buddie was ever planned to become canon, it was always about Bi Buck. And even if Buddie was considered to be canon, it won’t happen because of RG.
There is a reason why they keep the bucktommy content coming and it's not to send a secret message to a specific part of fandom, lol. It's because they see people (including the general audience) love them and want to see more of them.
Tommy is so damn powerful. He's a hot pilot, he's the autistic king of dry humour and flat expression, he's Daddy, he's Bobby-approved, he's the bearer of a medal and the destroyer of ship dreams. What can't this man do.
The way people keep creating an entirely different 9-1-1 in their heads really is fascinating…
Nothing in canon supports the idea that Eddie hates Tommy...
If you would tell a casual viewer that people are convinced Eddie wants Tommy gone, this would be the their reaction:
Idk, so far we got the new picture with a different angle of the hospital kiss, we got an interview with Oliver and Lou, then we got the bucktommy pride post, now the cut scene with henren… sure feels like a lot of cake.
Come to the bucktommy side of fandom, we have fluff and angst and headcanons: beautiful brand new content and it just keeps on growing, cultivated with love.🌻🌸💐🌼
Also here, you will hear different songs being played, not the same bitter hateful ones the whole long hiatus. 😉
Sorry, if you can't see it, but storytelling-wise,
#bucktommy
is simply amazing. Buck taking Tommy's place at the 118, Tommy being the one Chimney calls when he needs a rescue, Tommy having a connection to almost every character. So much potential, so little reason to not use it.
It's so sad that so many people want Eddie to hate Tommy when they actually have the potential to be such great friends, bonding over their past in the army and over their hobbies. They could be an amazing duo but you want them to tear each other apart because of Buck?! 😬
So, Buck tells Tommy about when they didn't have water to put out a fire and Eddie was trapped inside with a kid and a plane came out of nowhere to save the day. Buck says: Maybe you know the pilot?
Tommy sips his wine and says: Oh I do. And you do too.
And Buck is like: I DO?!
Now I’m curious. How can people say Tim wrote Tarlos because he “couldn’t” write Buddie? Did he tell you that or is it just another collective “I twist reality until it fits my narrative”-moment?
Ok. I need all of us to be realistic and calm. This one random con in Europe won’t have any effect on Lou’s life or career. He probably won’t even hear about what happened. BUT the way they act and react is unprofessional and tells me, I shouldn’t support them. Disappointing.
All he cared about was pumping Eddie for info so he could figure out how he was going to see Tommy again. A literal schoolboy asking about his crush. What do you mean you are going to see him and I'm not? 😤 watching these moments and the pieces coming together is the sweetest.
the comments on this live though ... people embarrassing themselves while Oliver is talking about how to deal with social media in a healthy way is ironic.😬
Very sad to see that a large part of this fandom sees no problem with this video. Even sadder that some seem to think they did this to imply gay Eddie or Buddie canon. Not everything is about those two things, you know. Some things just fucking suck and are not funny.
Tommy being used to people expecting him to be the big spoon because, well, he’s big, but Buck just wraps his arms around Tommy with a happy sigh and Tommy is like 😮🥹☺️ (they switch of course)
If you’re so obsessed with actors you feel the need to spend your time tagging them in hate posts and hacking them, I sincerely hope you will feel better about you and your life soon, because you clearly are not ok…
Apparently people already forgot everything Tim said, but especially the part about the meaning of the general audience and about not fulfilling the unreflected expectations of a fandom sub group on twt
Everyone is allowed to fuck up and change / grow in this silly show, unless their name is Tommy Kinard; that guy isn’t allowed to move a single step forward and if people are friendly to him, it’s an illusion, they actually hate him. Everyone hates him, even the guy he kisses.
I can't decide what I want to see more:
- Buck witnessing Tommy's helicopter going down.
- Buck hearing about a helicopter going down but not knowing if it's Tommy's.
This goes on main. This isn’t fucking funny. “that man will pay”, what the hell is this even supposed to mean? Is that a threat? You’re talking about a real person! This is a fucking tv show, stop behaving like disgusting creeps over it and then blame others jfc!
Imagine they do show this scene and it’s just Eddie teasing Buck about his love life while Chris is like “ugh stop please” and Tommy comes over a second later with his cake being like “what are you talking about? 🙂” 😂
It's so funny that some people be like: "Yes, Buck should explore his bisexuality - but not with Tommy."
And we all know what they mean: "Buck should not explore his bisexuality with anyone who isn't Eddie."
"Tommy is a racist and a misogynist" is a ridiculous argument, because in Bobby Begins Again you can clearly see, that Hen and Chimney get along with him just fine. A lot happened between the Begins episodes, obviously. People change and Tommy clearly did.
I’m rewatching the show right now and I come to the same conclusion as the last time: The attraction is one-sided at best. Buck might have been interested. Eddie wasn’t and isn’t. They’re best friends and they are going to stay best friends imo.
You will do your mind a favour if you accept that you can't know what will happen in a tv show. None of us are in the writer's room. They know what story they are going to tell. Might make you happy, might make you sad. Or maybe you move on. It's fiction. That's a normal process.
By the way, don't get me wrong: everyone who made this fandom a toxic as f place where people and the writer are told to die and where people don't feel safe to post their opinions or creations because they are getting jumped, sucks. Doesn't matter what you ship.
By now I think some of you really do skip all the
#bucktommy

#tevan
scenes because there's no way you would miss Buck's big happy smile and the love-sparkles in his eyes ...
Tommy just really loves cake and Buck finds out he didn't get any birthday cake as a child because his family sucked, so he makes it his mission to bake the best cake ever for Tommy, only to end up calling the whole 118 for help because he fears he's not exactly a baker ...
I’m still not over Tommy’s awkward-excited giggle after he kissed Buck and left, he probably touched his lips and smiled like an idiot after closing the door. 🥰
911 twitter fandom logic:
“Stop annoying poor Tim with Bucktommy related bullshit questions!!!” 😡
“Omg, Tim replied to MY question with something that I can interpret as proof for Buddie canon and use to make fun of the Bucktommy shippers, thanks King!” 🥰
Maybe some of you need a little reminder:
You won’t hurt a fictional character’s feelings with your comments.
But you will hurt real people with real emotions.
I will do on the hill that Buck did have a crush in s2 but Eddie was never interested. Them “realising their feelings” now is absurd. In Germany we say: Der Zug ist abgefahren.
Reminder that fandom is supposed to be fun. If you need to take a step away from it, because it’s toxic and stressful, do so without feeling guilty. And mute / block freely. Too much negative energy can affect your mental health, take care of yourself ❤️
No idea how I missed this interview, it's ... quite something. But this part is interesting too. Sorry, maybe it's just me but he does sound uncomfortable to me.

I actually think we are too realistic to be pissed off about something like main cast colleagues sharing set pictures of each other. The only thing that pisses me off is when people take this as "proof" for their ryliver delusions, which I think is creepy and invasive.
There is a person on tumblr saying “please listen to actually autistic people like me, Tommy is just an asshole, he doesn’t show any neurodivergent autistic traits” 😌
Now guess, what they ship and who their favourite 911 character is! 😂
Tommy actually kidnapped Buck and made him spill all the secrets of the 118 long ago, but Buck doesn’t know because Tommy is not only a super spy, he is also a master hypnotist who makes Buck believe he’s in love.
Do we know if Tommy has a house cause he was impressed by Buck’s loft 🤔
Oh no, wait, if he has a house, for how long has he been living in it all alone, in a way too big empty silent space 🥲
Why am I not suprised they're already comparing screenshots with Oliver laughing when someone comments buddie and him having a flat expression when someone mentions Bucktommy. I'm ... Y'all are overestimating your impact on those real life people ... But keep dreaming, I guess.
Maybe being a normal fan and just enjoying what you have, plus creating completely normal fanon stuff like every fandom always has done and always will do (art, headcanons, edits, manips, ...) is, in fact, the solution.
Like, season 2 episode 14 exists?! In case you don't remember: Eddie is trapped in a burning building with a child and they have no water. Chimney calls Tommy and guess what, a plane with a ton of water arrives and saves the day. Nice.

In the middle of the night, Buck googles survival chances of helicopter crashes and drives himself into a panic attack, imagining horror scenarios. Tommy wakes up and comforts him, telling him he's a great pilot, but Buck says: "You're human and humans die. I can't lose you."
There is no secret plot to please a part of the fandom. There's no hidden agenda. It's an entertaining mainstream tv show. If the mainstream audience likes what it sees: it stays.
