On TikTok, this person named Issie (her twitter is issieplz) spoke about her headcanon of Buck knowing Eddie's "date night cologne", and I loved the idea. So I had to my own version of it.
The contradictions in Eddie Diaz have sucked me in, I'll admit. He gives great insightful life and love advice that he takes none of. He's former Texan army with a silver star— an all American hero — but only enlisted to run from his responsibilities. He's a Paramedic who joined Fight Club. A self-sacrificing single father who somehow leads a double life as a high roller. He has to be dragged into any new romance kicking and bitching but once there will pleasantly play house (right up until he does something dramatic to blow it all up). He obviously has commitment issues but has no problem emotionally and legally committing to his best friend. He doesn't believe in religious indoctrination or the supernatural but is very Catholic. He's Latinx and speaks fluent Spanish yet claims to watch Telenovelas for no reason other than to 'practice Spanish'. He's a regular, mentally stable guy. He's the least normal of them all, nor is he anywhere close to mentally stable.
Eddie rolled his eyes but Lucy could see the slight smile on his face. This made her feel relieved. While they were dancing in the bar, she noticed traces of earrings in his left ear. She thought that Texas would look great with such an ornament. Seeing his mischievous smile and relaxation as he glanced at his reflection in the mirror, she knew she had made the right decision.
“Nice, Buck will dig that.”
“Haha, cute ,” Eddie said with a mockery.
Lucy, happy that her little personal project was a success, began to get ready to leave. She had a few things to do and needed to catch a few hours of sleep. Still, she couldn't leave Texas without teasing him at least a little.
“Just because you two had sex already doesn't mean you can't look good.”
“W-what?” Eddie squeezed his eyes shut for a moment. His jawline visibly tensed. “Erm... I mean... mmm... what?” He looked at her, trying to keep his face neutral, as if he had no idea what she meant.
Lucy smiled indulgently, raising one eyebrow in amusement.
She wasn't going to tell him that Buck had texted her first thing in the morning. If Eddie hasn't figured out by now that Buck is an idiot with the drive of a high schooler, that’s on him. Besides, she saw everything on Eddie's face the moment he opened the door.
She remained silent, looking at him patiently with her hand on the door handle. It amused her to watch Eddie agonize over it, trying to figure out if this was just another provocation on her part or if she actually knew something. She smiled triumphantly as Eddie finally gave in and asked with a frown.
“How?”
She shrugged. “Call it a sixth sense.” Leaving the apartment, she winked at him, "See you later, Texas."
would like to say a personal thank you to 911 for confirming buck gets clingy with eddie when he's drunk. like, we knew that. we've been writing it for years but god does it feel good to have a visual representation now
There are so many ways Buddie could happen but just imagine this:
Buck going over to the Diaz house after he and Eddie kinda dancing around their feelings and/or the charged moments they keep having. And Eddie knew he was coming but he's still startled by the sound of the key in the door. He gets up to meet Buck in the foyer.
"How'd you get here so fast?" He asks. Buck smiles softly, his eyes bright on Eddie's face.
"They finished the construction on sunset."
"No more detours?" Eddie asks. He feels like his body is suspended perfectly still in this moment.
"No more detours," Buck agrees. And then they crush together in a kiss and live happily ever after etc etc.
