'Buck, Bothered and Bewildered' was a wild ride in real time bc it really did seem like it was Eddie's attention Buck was craving, but it's also sooo funny to rewatch with the knowledge that everything was because he had a big fat crush on Tommy. He wanted to take him out to drinks right after the tour. Immediately after he makes the connection that Eddie and Tommy have something in common, Tommy leaves to go hang out with Eddie. And now they're hanging out in Vegas? They're doing Muay Thai and fixing cars together? What does Buck have in common with Tommy? NOTHING. He's sad about it. He's willing to play basketball about it. He wants to talk about Tommy all the time but he doesn't understand why, so he's like, oh I must be annoyed by him. Wrong. You wanna kiss him on the mouth, babe. That's why your stomach turned into butterflies at the basketball game, that's why you couldn't take your eyes off of him, that's why you body checked your friend into a sprained ankle. That's why when you opened your door and he was on the other side your heart started to pound. That's why you couldn't stop moving closer and closer, why when he said, "I was jealous, too," you had a second where you were thrilled because you thought maybe he was jealous of Eddie and you before he explained what he meant. That's why you kept fighting to keep his gaze, why you keep tilting your head in invitation, why you move into his space and move into his space and move and move until there's only a foot of air between you. You big goof. You wanted to kiss him, Buckley, but he got there first. And now you're free.

I DAMN YOU BACK TO HELL YOU BLONDE CUNTY VAMPIRE FUCK!!!!

Buddies turning out to be queerphobic and lacking any real understanding of queer identity, culture, or representation was an unsurprising but necessary revelation. Like various popular ships in fandom, they’re dominated by non-queer women who fixate on heterosexual men and create narratives that force queerness onto them. Then, they police these spaces and present themselves as experts on queer topics and identity. All because they sexualize queerness but only like it when it applies to the people or characters they’re interested in or find attractive enough. When called out, they claim it’s due to homophobia or bigotry, hiding behind fake activism and outrage. As a queer man, it’s exhausting. The straight guy who loves playing queer characters or the straight character they desperately want to be queer receives far more grace, leeway, and understanding than actual queer characters, who are shamed and made to feel gross and uncomfortable in spaces supposedly made for them.

It’s exhausting

And now back to this

I don't know Tim Minear’s social media handles, but I'm sure he has a Facebook account. If possible, please flood his page with gratitude and positivity. This isn’t just about Tevan, but also about his inclusion of queer stories in general. I've expressed my disdain for the unnecessary online harassment of writers and actors, but positivity should be the norm. Especially since the most vocal parts of the fandom are often the most toxic. You can do whatever you want, but I think it would mean a lot to him to see how much we appreciate his storytelling, whether we are old or new fans.

Season 7 finally let Buck embrace his bisexuality, and he's now in a wholesome, healthy, and stable relationship with a guy he genuinely likes, and who feels the exact same way about him. A connection he’s never experienced before and one pivotal to his current arc. He and Tommy are thriving, and they'll continue to do so into the next season.

To all the BuckTommy or Tevan fans, here's to us staying strong despite the repeated failed attempts by others to manipulate the narrative and spoil this experience for us. From their kisses to their intimate moments, this relationship is a breath of fresh air. Let's continue to connect and celebrate it during the hiatus.

And to the Buddies who dislike both the ship and its supporters, while also displaying queer phobia in defense of your non canon and non queer ship, just know that not only are we not going anywhere, but you'll never understand or share our joy about a genuine queer storyline within this show that’s not based solely on theories or speculation within the spaces of a social media app. Anyways, until next season, babes….

Daddy kink??? Oh, legs and torso were showing out tonight I see…

If you’re on 911 Twitter, the bucktommy #’s are a safe space, guys. Theres nothing but positivity. If you’re not a fan of twitter, then please stay within the Tumblr space. It’s safe here. I’d say go over to TikTok as well but you’ll have to make sure to adjust your feed to see what you want to see specifically. The Buddie hate has always been around. Nothing that’s happening is new. Remember that they are just a loud minority. Have fun. Share theories and make gifs and edits. Stop letting people ruin this experience for you especially if this story is one that speaks to you on a personal level.

Again, they’re just a small minority. Have fun

BUCKTOMMY

Tommy and Buck.

I love how those within the fandom who aggressively advocated for a mim relationship throughout the course of the series quickly began displaying their blatant manipulative queer phobic tendencies when the mim relationship they got wasn't the one they hoped for. Now it’s “gay sex bad me no like gay sex me uncomfortable me want men to be single or go find woman this is law”

And wonder why things will never work in their favor.

Go to hell

😞
