There’s a particular emotional honesty and maturity in Buck in this coming out storyline that is actually really interesting.

Because on the surface, he’s just rushing into a relationship, the same way he always does, and it’s like not much has changed…

But when you actually look at what he’s saying, how he’s saying it, and to whom, he’s not just wearing his heart on his sleeve in terms of his ACTIONS, but also his words.

He stumbles a bit on the date, but otherwise, we see him in the loft trying to explain to Tommy feelings that he doesn’t even 100% understand himself yet, because he doesn’t want to leave him in the dark… We see him go IMMEDIATELY to Maddie to try to process his guilt and uncertainty about lying to Eddie about the date… We see him open up honestly to Eddie about the fact that he can’t stop thinking about Tommy, even after he ‘ruined’ the date… And we see him put it on the line to call Tommy… Not to hook up, but to explain, and to hear Tommy out too. He doesn’t try to hide his hesitancy from Tommy, he lays it out as “Look, I don’t know what this is, and I don’t 100% know how I feel, but I like being with you, and I’d like to see where this goes.”

We’ve seen Buck be self-reflective before. But in his romantic relationships, we much more see him rushing in with actions and gestures, rather than sitting down and analysing and discussing his feelings.

That's totally how I saw it, is he rushing? Maybe a bit, we don't actually know for sure how long him and Tommy have known each other or what the amount of time between their coffee date/meet-up and the wedding is, but Buck (and let's be real pretty much all of the other characters) has a tendency to commit hard and fast, especially romantically. But he's already been more vulnerable with Tommy than we've ever seen him be with his LIs, and Tommy's facilitated that communication by also being open and vulnerable with Buck. They're both taking a chance and telling each other that they're willing to work for it at the same time as respecting each other's boundaries. Hopefully we get to see Buck come into his own more as the relationship progresses. It's something new and hopefully it'll be explored well over the coming eps (and potentially *fingers crossed* next season?).

Yeah, let the record show that Benjji for some reason has had the busiest April I’ve ever seen someone have, and I am exhausted just thinking about it :P

Ten days until I go down to London.

Which means 10 days until @benjji2795 flies to London too!

Okay, so leaving aside the actual game content for a while here…

Is Dropout giving this season of Game Changer a MUCH higher budget?

Like, I’ve been having this thought for a while, but there are so many little additional costs this time that add up:

Half the episodes have fully-custom replacement podia…

I assume they had to completely repaint the back wall after Pencils Down…

The SINGLE day of shooting covering Bingo and Déjà Vu required SIXTEEN actors, not including Sam. (9 Bingo players, the PA, Siobhan, Ify, Zac, BDG, Josh, and Kevin).

Of just THOSE two episode: the huge number of cameras and storylines in Bingo was a huge production burden… While the AMOUNT of editing required for Déjà Vu is above and beyond anything they’ve done in this show before (EVEN including Escape the Greenroom, which is in some ways the prototype for both of those episodes, featuring both the unusual camera setup and the editing interstitials for backfilled story)…

#game changer #dropout #dropout tv

In case anyone is wondering my mental state today…

I have a mash-up of “Everybody Do the Wenis” from Game Changer 7x06 “Déjà Vu”… and “Spiral Mountain” from Banjo-Kazooie… stuck in my head.

I think one of my biggest pet peeves right now, is reading a Buck x Tommy fic that has a little Buddie thrown in and it’s not tagged properly. 🙃 That goes for other characters insinuating that Buck is into Eddie or the other way around. I am begging yall to learn how to tag properly.

#‘Wait [X]?! I thought you were going to say Eddie!’ #is one of my least favourite Buddie tropes #EVEN IN BUDDIE FIC #It’s so patronising to assume you know someone’s feelings better than they do #AND if I were coming out to someone and they said that #that would be an IMMEDIATE red flag #that they are not a safe person to talk to
