It was a sunny day outside, and your plans to have a picnic with your family were confirmed when you saw the bright blue sky outside your window.
The picnic was going to be on the park that you and Buck had your first date in. It was also the park where you guys met, the place where you told him you were pregnant and the one where he proposed to you. So it was a very special place for the both of you.
It was the first time you and your little family left the house for that kind of activity. Usually, it was very hard for you and Buck to have some time together, since you two had opposite schedules: him as a firefighter, you as a 911 dispatcher.
But after you got a little bit of your old body back, you wanted to try your favorite dress. And this was the perfect occasion.
You carefully picked up your dress from your closet. It was white with blue flowers, and it stopped above your knees. It had a slit and an off shoulder neckline. It showed your curves perfectly, and everytime you wore it, Buck couldn’t stop looking at you. He never could, but it was very special when you also felt good about yourself.
You put it on, feeling the soft cloth on your skin. You felt extremely comfortable on your own skin for a little bit.
But then, you looked at yourself in the mirror.
You couldn’t see your waist anymore, not like you used to. Your arms were a little chubbier, and your smile started fading away as you found more and more "flaws" on your body and face.
Before you could take it off, the bedroom’s door opened.
“Babe?” He called, entering the room. He stopped walking when he put his eyes on you.
His mouth was half-opened, and his eyes traveled through your body. His cheeks started getting red, and a smile formed in his face.
“You look…”
“I know, I know, I was about to change.” You said, starting to open the zipper.
“No, no! You look amazing, babe. I feel like I fell in love with you all over again.” He said, grabbing your waist and caressing it.
“You don’t need to lie to me just because we’re engaged, babe.” You said, holding his face with your hands.
“I’m not lying!” He answered, grabbing your hands. “You just had a baby, my love. You are going too hard on yourself. It’s not even justifiable, because you look incredibly sexy as always, okay?” He said, making you laugh.
“Are you being serious, Buck?”
“Look, if you don’t believe me, let’s call Maddie. Act like you just bought this dress and want her opinion on it, okay? She’ll be honest.”
Before you could answer, Buck grabbed your phone and facetimed his sister, who picked up after three beeps.
“Hi, honey! How are you?”
“Hi, Maddie! Can you help me with something?”
“Sure! What do you need?”
“Does this dress look good?” You asked as you put your phone on your pillow, stepping back so she could see it better.
“Oh, honey, it looks so good! You look so pretty!” She said, smiling genuinely. “It suits you perfectly! I love it!”
“Promise?”
“Yes! Yes, I promise.”
“Ok, thank you!” You said, ending the call. Buck was looking at you, leaning against the doorframe and smiling proudly.
“What did I tell you?” He said, walking to you and grabbing your waist again.
“Thank you, babe.” You said, putting your arms around his neck.
Buck smiled and started kissing you slowly, caressing your waist. He only broke the kiss to start distributing them around your face, which made you giggle.
His eyes started to shine as he heard the sound of your laugh. He suddenly pulled you up and started spinning you in the air, only to carefully throw you on the mattress and begin kissing you again.
“We need to go, babe!” You said in between kisses, making him pout.
“Do we really need to?”
“Babe…”
“I'm just kidding, my love. Let's go.” He said, giving you one last kiss before pulling you up. “But when we get home, you'll be all mine.”
“Promise?” You asked while putting your hands on his shoulders.
“Always.”

I don't like when people ignore important canon events in fanfics like Christopher's meltdown over Eddie dating again or Maddie's lack of support towards Buck when their parents appear. I do understand those are unpleasant to address but they're important

For anyone who couldn't see the Sneak Peek with Buck and Maddie on YouTube, here's the clip for you. It's great.

This may be old news by now but for some reason it’s been on my mind lately
I haven’t caught up on 911 so i dont know what’s happening right now
But I am still not over Chim punching Buck in the face and I will never be
Buck was just doing what his sister asked of him like a good brother. Literally anyone would have done the same
He did not deserve to be PUNCHED in the face for it and Chim should not have gotten off so easily for it. Literally no repercussions. Everyone was on his side. Everyone knew what he was doing and HID IT from Buck
Had the roles been reversed the team would have gone off on Buck so hard and made him feel like such an asshole and lectured him about why he was in the wrong. They would have sided with Chim and supported Chim and iced Buck out
Also why are we making Chim out to be such a hero for punching Buck and going after Maddie? This might be a hot take but maybe Maddie just needed some time to herself. And would be back when she was better. Chasing her around the country with a BABY doesn’t seem like the right thing to do. And it’s giving Doug Kendall vibes.
Also Buck of all people would know what his sister is like and what she needs. Like yea he has a different relationship with her than Chim but that doesn’t mean he doesn’t know her extremely well. He may even know her better in this case because he’s seen how she’s been in the past
I feel like at this point Buck is just a punching bag for the writers. No one else would be ostracized as much as him had they done the things that he did. They really screwed up with this one

911 thoughts
Well, I finished all the seasons of the 911. I needed only 1.5 weeks for it cause I couldn’t stop watching! But I should day that it was the third time I tried to start this show but only now I realised how incredible it is.
How I have already said Bobby and Athena are my everything. I love them so much. True parents, true family. I really enjoyed watching their relationships development during this show, how Bobby was becoming the part of this family, how he found connection with the kids, how both Athena and Bobby was fighting their own demons. My two babies, can’t imagine this show without them.
And can’t believe Angela Bassett is 63! Just whaaat?! This lady is the queen of the whole show, I’m serious! Hope she won’t leave the project.
I’m in love the the first 4 seasons but I need to say that the fifth season was idk strange?
Yeah Bobby and Athena are still the best but others..
Chimney/Maddie storyline was so unnatural written. I know that Jennifer Love Hewitt needed maternity leave but the writers could do it better, I’m sure
The same thing with Eddie. I understand that they wanted do show the character’s development, however, I can’t see him in such a way. Maybe because his psychological problems were very suddenly brought to the fore, idk..
I do miss Michael so much :(
Really happy that May is going to the college! She needs it so so much! Yeah she’s a talented operator but she wants more and we saw it. So, good luck girl, you can do it!
Buck/Taylor. I know that a lot of people here hate her but in my opinion, she’s in interesting character. There’s no black and white in this show and I’m happy about it. The same thing with Taylor. I believe she loved Buck and he felt the same but they are different and they both have their own ideals and today they put their jobs on the first place. It’s absolutely okay so please let them be good friends who helped each other during the darkest period of their lives.
I NEED a spin off with Taylor and Detective Lou Ransone. I’m in love with Sasha Roiz since the Grimm and he’s character deserves more in this show. Absolutely loved his interaction with Taylor during the crime investigation so give me mooore! What can be better than one smart detective and one ambitious journalist in the same project? Btw, I saw a wonderful chemistry between them! So please!!!
I know Arielle Kebbel since the vampire diaries and I was surprised to see her in the show but still don’t know what I fee about her character right now. We don’t know her well yet, so show me more and I’ll tell you
One thing I loved during all the seasons is a feeling of the family when we’re talking about the 118 lafd. They’re so close, they support each other so badly, they all have difficult past and every character is fighting his own demons but they all are still together. Always and forever. I do need such people in my life..
Thanks for reading. Couldn’t imagine that this post is going to be so long, sorry

9-1-1 REACTION
This reaction is for the season 6, fourth episode "Animal Instincts" which originally aired on October 10, 2022. The episode was written by Stacey R. Rose and directed by Michael Medico. Spoilers ahead!
Tumblr media
After last week's emotional whirlwind of an episode, we enter into calmer waters with this week's "Animal Instincts". Our three main storylines focus on Buck, Hen, and Eddie. I will tackle each storyline while also covering each of the emergencies featured in this episode. Let's start with the Great Tree Disaster. 
We begin the episode with a very bored, very thirsty park ranger named Benny Phelps (Connor Tillman) as he spies on a pair of ornithologists. While pretending to narrate nature documentary, Benny appears smitten with the female bird watcher Cassandra (Eileen Boylan) while being dismissive of her partner Gilbert (JM Longoria). The pair discover a fallen tree and Gilbert gets the bright idea to stand in the giant hole the tree used to occupy. While Benny looks on via a pair of binoculars, the tree seemingly rises up and crushes Gilbert. Then we get, in the words of James A. Janisse, a title card. 
Tumblr media
When the 118 arrive at the scene, Benny explains that a tree has fallen on the victim though not in the way they are probably thinking. He then describes this pretty fascinating phenomenon where fallen trees can be pulled back into an upright position by their still intact roots. With Hen still in charge, the 118 spring into action and are able sever the remaining roots of the tree which allows it to fall over. Chimney and Eddie go to work accessing Gilbert's energy while a panicked Cassandra watches on. They are able to get a pulse which means Gilbert can be transported to the nearest hospital. Benny offers to give Cassandra a ride to the hospital in hopes of asking her out on a date but his plans fail miserably when she calls him out for trying to get her number after her brother almost died.
Let's talk about Eddie! We get a scene between our favorite firefighter hottie and Christopher. I cannot get over how grown up Chris looks and sounds. I can't help but remember when he was first introduced in season 2. Our 9-1-1 kiddos are growing up y'all and I can't deal! Anywho, Eddie gets a call from Chris's school and is informed that our dear, sweet Christopher Diaz is ... gasp ... skipping out on science club. In a surprising move, Eddie reaches out to his dad Ramon (George Delhoyo) to get some fatherly advice. I'm so used to Eddie always going to Buck or even Carla whenever the issue revolves around Christopher but it was nice seeing him seek out his dad, especially since their relationship has been super combative over the last several years. This is some major growth on both their parts and I'm happy to see it!
Tumblr media
Eddie is very protective of Christopher because he knows how the world can be and Ramon suggests that perhaps he is overprotective in response to Ramon not being protective enough. Because he wasn't around as much when Eddie was growing up, this forced Eddie to grow up a lot faster than he should have. Eddie's way of coping with that is to show up extra for his son. 
When Eddie finally confronts Christopher about his acting out, Christopher calls him a jerk. Eddie does a great job of letting Christopher know that raising his voice is not appropriate and will not be tolerated while also acknowledging Christopher's feelings. This is some A-plus parenting on the part of Eddie Diaz. Raising a preteen can't be easy and he is having to go it alone. He tells Christopher that he loves him and that he will always feel the need to protect him. He also tells him that he will try to give him more freedom ... when his punishment is over. Great job, Eddie!
Tumblr media
Our second emergency of the night involves a drunk driver who nearly mowed over a bicyclist. While Eddie assesses the bike rider's injuries, Chimney checks out the driver of the car who is passed out in the driver's seat. Chimney attempts to open the driver's side door but it won't bulge so he climbs into the passenger's side to check the driver. The driver becomes conscious and immediately goes into flight mode. He drives off in his wrecked vehicle with Chimney in tow. Buck goes into fight mode and takes off after them on a bicycle. When I saw this scene in the previews for the episode, I thought it was going to be super serious, but it's played for laughs. Watching Buck bike after a car that's easily going 90 miles per hour in a residential neighborhood is quite comical. Poor Chimney must've been super traumatized during all of this because it was very reminiscent of when he crashed in season one. In true Buck fashion, he stands in front of the speeding car which causes the driver to smash his foot on the brakes. When the driver asks Chimney about what happens next, Chimney informs him that he will be taken to the hospital to be checked out ... and then to jail. 
Let's talk about Hen! Hen is still serving as the interim captain of the 118 until Bobby returns from Florida. Hen is happy to hand her captain duties back over to Bobby who assures her that he's heard nothing but great things about her leadership in his absence. Bobby then addresses the huge elephant in the room which is Hen failing out of medical school. He tells her that he got a call from Karen who basically went off on him for putting her in charge of the 118 which played a major role in her failing her year two test. Hen assures Bobby that it's not his fault - it's hers. He offers to make some phone calls but Hen tells him that she doesn't think there's anything either of them can do. Bobby suggests she take some time off because she has been going nonstop for so long. Hen worries that she won't know what to do with having time off and Bobby tells her to do nothing. I love Bobby. He is such a great boss and an even better friend and father-figure to those in his care. 
Tumblr media
We then see a montage of Hen cleaning her place which is clearly already clean. She is so thrilled when Buck stops by unannounced. The two of them vent their issues and let me just say, I get that the fandom (or the most vocal part of the fandom) is team Buddie (Buck and Eddie) but I have always found it interesting that when Buck needs wisdom and understanding, he goes to Hen or Maddie or Bobby - rarely Eddie. Hen often takes a big sister role when it comes to Buck much like Bobby and Athena are his parental figures. After she councils him on his issues, it's her turn. I like that we get Buck's perspective because at the end of the day, Buck is a fiercely loyal friend and such a pure heart and he has a way of getting to the root of an issue. When he tells Hen that she would make a great doctor, it's the wake up call that she needs to put her into fight mode. Seriously, this episode could be called Flight or Fight but I believe we already had that as an episode title.
Hen seeks out Dr. Simmons (Gayla Johnson) and pleads her case. She tells her that she believes she will make a great doctor and that she deserves a second chance. Dr. Simmons offers to give her a second chance and just like that, Henrietta Wilson is back on the path towards becoming a doctor. During this moment in the episode, my mom said that sometimes it's really just as simple as asking. Worst-case scenario is that the person you ask will say 'no'. If Hen had just accepted defeat and abandoned her dreams of becoming a doctor, she would've never known there was a second chance waiting for her. I'm so happy that this happened because I think Hen would be such a great doctor. Plus, I'm secretly hoping that we get a Ryan Murphy, Brad Falchuk, and Tim Minear medical drama featuring Hen in the future. Keeping my fingers crossed.
Our next emergency was definitely the most intense one of the episode. We see a little girl named Clairabelle (Keslee Blalock) and her mother Lourdes (Jazmin Caratini) in their apartment entertaining each other. When Lourdes' ex (and Clairabelle's father) Stephen shows up unannounced and demanding entry to the apartment, Lourdes sends her daughter into her bedroom and tells her to execute the plan they've come up with. Clairabelle takes direction well and immediately goes into her bedroom and deadbolts the door. She looks under her bed for a cell phone in a duffel bag and she uses it to dial 9-1-1.
Tumblr media
Maddie gets the call and instructs Clairabelle to get inside the closet. In a scene very similar to the movie Taken, Maddie tearfully tells the little girl that if her father does get into the room, he will take her, and that she will need to go with him willingly. Clairabelle doesn't want to leave her mother behind but she agrees to what Maddie says. Stephen does manage to get inside the room and he finds Clairabelle. He tries to take her out of the apartment but Clairabelle fights back. She kicks him in the crotch which allows her enough time to leave the apartment. When Stephen goes to chase after her, the police are standing outside waiting to apprehend him. Man, this was a good scene!
Maddie visits a battered and beaten Lourdes in the hospital and tells her that she has found an immigration lawyer (Nina Millin) who specializes in helping women who are in her position. When Lourdes asks Maddie why she cares so much about their situation, Maddie tells her that she's been where she's been, which no truer thing has been said on this show. Speaking of Fight or Flight, Fight or Flight is the name of the season 2 episode where Maddie is confronted by her own estranged husband Doug. Let's talk about Buck! Our beloved Buckaroo is on a mission to find meaning and purpose and enlightenment. He tells Maddie that he is going to change his perspective on his situation by saying 'yes' more to things.
This new perspective is immediately put to the test when Buck meets up with an old friend named Connor (Colin McCalla) and his wife (Chelsea Kane). While having lunch together, the couple divulge their difficulties with conceiving. Connor admits that while he had initially assumed his wife was the one having issues, it is actually him. The couple then ask Buck if they would be a sperm donor. Let me tell you - I did NOT see this coming. When this scene played in the episode, I looked over to my mom and asked her if she remembered the episode of Sex and the City where two gay male acquaintences of Carrie Bradshaw ask her to donate one of their eggs for surrogacy. Thankfully this episode handles this storyline with way more care than SATC did. 
Tumblr media
Buck, like us, is perplexed by this request. What I like most is that Buck really takes time to think about it. He doesn't laugh it off. He doesn't get upset or offended. Buck sees his friend and his friend's wife and their inability to have a child and he treats things with such great care. Buck talks to Connor and asks why him? Why not go to a sperm bank where they can find a donor with perfect genes. Someone super intelligent or who has brown hair and blue eyes. Connor tells Buck that those qualities are superficial. He and his wife want their child to have a good heart and that's why they asked Buck. No one has a bigger heart than Evan "Buck" Buckley. Watching Buck hear this from Connor is a reminder that while Buck is always championing those he loves, he doesn't always get that same energy back for those very same people. Hearing that he has a good heart is super validating to him. 
Perhaps the best scene of the episode is when Buck goes to Hen. He opens up to her about his friend's request and Hen is such a great reasonable wall for Buck to bounce his thoughts off of. After hearing the emotional appeal from Connor, Hen offers him a sobering dose of reality. Hen reminds Buck that if he does become Connor and his wife's sperm donor, he will effectively be handing over his rights of being a father to the kid. Buck will be a donor, not a dad. This is the splash of water in the face that Buck needs so that he can have a more balanced view of the situation. Buck does end up meeting with Connor and his wife and tells them both that while he still isn't sure what he wants in life, he sees that are certain about what they want. Buck decides to say 'yes' and tells them that he will be their sperm donor.
Tumblr media
Our final emergency of the episode is pretty ... wild. The 118 are called out to a fraternity and sorority party and their patient turns out to be a little ole puppy dog named Hoover who accidentally ate a pill he found on the floor. The dog is unresponsive much to the concern of quite a few drunk and high Greek life members, and when it's suggested that NARCAN be administered to the dog, the 118 call Hen who is day drinking with Buck and she helps them figure out the appropriate amount of the drug to give the dog. Chimney administers the dose and the dog springs back to life. The frat bros and sorority sisters are happy that Hoover is alive and okay but Bobby takes the dog because clearly living in a fraternity or sorority house isn't the best thing for him.
Speaking of Bobby, we end the episode with Athena returning home from Florida. She talks about visiting Harry, Michael, and David. I found this so amusing because I find it very intriguing that the show is acknowledging characters that can't technically appear on-screen this season because of the actors who play them. Bobby was acting a bit odd when Athena got home because I'm super worried about him relapsing, a part of me wondered if he kept the bottle of pills from the frat house. Well, thankfully that wasn't the case. The reason Bobby is acting a bit strange is because he kept Hoover! Bobby and Athena have a dog! That was such an exciting reveal, especially since they're empty nesters at the moment. Bobby clearly is more into having a dog than Athena is but because Athena values his happiness she seems okay with Hoover being a part of their family.
Overall, this episode was pretty incredible. I've alluded to me being disappointed with the beginning of season 5. There were just so many things going on behind the scenes that the show for the first half of the season didn't feel like the show I know and loved. This season, so far, feels like the 9-1-1 I fell in love with back in season one. I love that we're getting character development and growth. Eddie is discovering what it's like parenting a teenager. Hen is about to be given a second chance at her dream. Buck is still on a journey of self-discovery. Bobby and Athena are learning what it means to be empty nesters while looking out for Athena's elderly parents. On top of that, the emergency scenes are still pretty solid. I can't wait to see what happens next for our beloved characters! Until next time ...

Okay so watching that Tarlos scene at the hospital in the snow storm arc and I have a few things to say:
This one is kind of a criticism? More like an opinion. I'm kind of confused about the birth/possible death of an important character parallel that they use. I do understand it builds tension but I just don't vibe with it. I didn't like it in 911 and I don't like it in Lone star either
I do appreciate that it created a sort of parallel between Madney and Tarlos. I think it's interesting that even if you can see some Buddie and Tarlos resemblance, the real parallels are between Maddie and TK and Chimney and Carlos. I like that Maddie and TK are both characters that were hurt in previous relationships (although very differently) and that Chimney and Carlos are the ones that can be their pillar. It's a pretty typical dynamic but it makes me really look forward to maybe domestic Tarlos with kids? Who knows
The scene where Tarlos hug cemented for me the fact that if the writers make Buddie canon it could get some amazing moments with beautiful coming out stories. I don't believe it is likely to happen but I will hold out the hope they will go down this route for different characters, maybe if another show is created. (I like my coming of age stories don't mind me)
