we are a fresh page on the desk (filling in the blanks as we go)
buck/eddie | teen and up | 3/3 , 29k words | complete
thanks to @ronordmann for the beautiful cover, it's gorge and i'm obsessed with it! also! this fic is for @monsterrae1 bc she's amazing and bc she also demanded me to write this fic. here you go, hoe! 💗
"Interesting read?" Buck asks and when Eddie shoots him a confused look, he nods towards the book in his lap. "Leave The Light On?"
"Oh! Yeah, it's one of my favorite books." Eddie smiles, shy and charming. "I've read the series like, a thousand times."
"Really? Huh?" Buck feels his heart thump erratically inside of him.
Holy shit, holy shit. Eddie Diaz read his books.
Honestly, how is Buck supposed to act normal after such revelation?
"I'm actually flying to an audition right now. Hopefully to be part of the movie for the book." Eddie says and then frowns. "Oh shit, I don't know if I should've told you that."
"It's okay." He leans forward and grins, squinting one of his eyes and shrugging. "Your secret's safe with me.' or; Buck's a best seller author under a pen name, Eddie is an actor auditioning for the movie adaptation of his books, and somewhere along the way, they fall in love.

‘plz let me know if u want me to make a p2 to this list because i could keep going’ - i’m not the same anon BUT as someone who just started the bodyguard fic thanks to your rec, please do!!! (if its not a bother ofc!)
omg of course, never a bother !!! (also isnt it so good, now i feel like i need a reread). again these are all around 40k+ !
ripples all the way down by @fcntasmas - buddie fic of all time? buddie fic of all time. canon compliant where buck goes on dates and christopher tries to set his dads together using penguin philosophy. its SO cute and good i wish i could reread it for the first time again
far away (from the one i love) by @woodchoc-magnum - again cannot recommend this writer enough, they too have a treasure trove of longer fics that are all excellent. this one is the one i read most recently, basically buck goes with taylor to chicago and leaves the 118 and eddie goes on a trip to get him back. SAUR good and sweet
maybe we'll make something by @buckactuallys - buckley-diaz family roadtrip fic ! ugh this one was SO sweet, i read it all in one sitting and just smiled the whole way through. so tender and soft and the pining is off the CHARTS. so so good.
to look and be seen by @princessfbi - royalty x bodyguard au!!!!! need i say any more. buck is the prince of england going to stay with his godfather bobby aka potus and eddie is his longsuffering bodyguard. oh this was SUCH fun, cannot recommend enough
to be found by @zainclaw - this is potentially my favourite buddie fic of all time, i recommend it to everyone but its SO good. its a werewolf au and just *chefs kiss* do yourself a favour and read this absolutely immediately (plus the author semi-recently released a lil follow up and its SO cute omg)
this could be our year; don't let go of my hand by @homerforsure - cannot adequately express how good this fic is. its so funny and creative and clever and also tense and suspenseful and angsty and its SO good. basically the 118 get sponsored by an eccentric fashion designer and attend a masquerade where then Shit Goes Down. absolutely top notch
a bleeding heart on a silver screen by @hoediaz - not a mia rec list unless i honk about this one. buddie actors au. just read it its incredible
in a week by @buttercupbuck - oh this one !! this one!!!! basically an au where instead of the 118 eddie joins the us forest service except the rest of 118 are there. its just such a beautiful tender fic and i adore it so impossibly

Buddie AU Rec List 💙
Hello!! So back in the day in my older fandoms I used to live for aus but with buddie i - like many others, i know - can sometimes struggle with aus because they’re identities are so intrinsically linked to their jobs as firefighters that it’s hard to picture them Not being that??? Even in my own aus that I’ve written I always find a way to make them both firefighters in the end lmao. 
But I’ve read quite a few fics recently that reminded just how fucking delicious it can be to sink your teeth into a damn good au askjdkfh so with that in mind I decided to compile a little list of some of my favourite aus that I’ve come across in the past couple of months bc every single one of them made me lose it in the best way 💖:
a bleeding sun on a silver screen by rarakiplin
One day, Buck will tell an interviewer that he would be happy to make movies with Eddie Diaz until the day he dies.
But first, years before that, he sees Eddie for the first time on the set of Chimney’s fifth movie.

or, the actors au
Let My Ink Stain Your Pages by letmetellyouaboutmyfeels
Having just killed off his popular character, bestselling author Evan Buckley needs some new inspiration and fast. Luckily for him, Det. Eddie Diaz is about to stroll into his life.
The last thing Eddie needs is a reckless mystery writer partnering with him and causing trouble. Or, rather, the last thing he needs is an inappropriate crush. Too bad he doesn't have a choice, because he's about to become the main character in Buck's new book series.
...everyone, place your bets.
dance, for all that we've been through by catchingpapermoons
The Los Angeles Ballet’s 2022-2023 season ends with a bang with their fresh take on a ballet staple, Swan Lake. Artistic Director Bobby Nash is in his eighth season with the Los Angeles Ballet, and it has flourished under his direction.
However, his associate, Eddie Diaz, is the one whose reimagining of the choreography has caught our attention...
(or, Eddie Diaz moves to L.A. to restart his dance career, and ends up choreographing a show, finding a family, and falling in love. Not necessarily in that order.)
like the petals in our pockets (may we remember who we are) by evcndiaz
His name is Evan Buckley. Alias: Captain America. The year is 2022. He is not on the battlefield. This is not World War II. He is alive. He is alive. He is alive. What a goddamn curse that is.
or; seventy years is a long time.
Don't Play Games (Come My Way) by letmetellyouaboutmyfeels
Buck hates Eddie Diaz.
Ever since his publishing company and Eddie's merged, the man has been nothing but a pain in Buck's ass. The way he nitpicks all of Buck's company emails, the way he spends half his day bickering with Buck, the way he makes Buck's stomach flip and the way he's started haunting Buck's dreams... yeah, it's one hundred percent hate. Definitely. Buck's sure of it.
Because what the hell else could it be?
keep me as your finish line by thatbuddie (talktothesky)
“Oh no, we’re not doing this.” Chimney pops a bubble with the gum he’s been chewing as he moves one of his fingers back and forth to point between The-Man-who-isn’t-Buck’s-man-he’s-just-The-Man and Buck. “You didn’t drag me to the gym just so you can ditch me to fuck some guy in the showers."
Buck lowers his voice, leaning forward as if trying to make the words’s journey shorter between him and Chimney so they can’t escape and reach anyone else’s ears,“I wouldn’t fuck him in the showers.”
Chimney’s response is wordless in the form of an eyebrow raise.
“Not anymore, okay?” Buck clarifies, rolling his eyes. “That’s not who I am now."
(spoiler alert: Buck does fuck the guy in the showers. but that comes after nicknaming him Big Beautiful Brown Eyes, finding out his name is actually Eddie, becoming his best friend, and falling madly in love with him.)
All I do is keep the beat in bad, bad company by HMSLusitania
It’s the last day of break when they grab lunch together and Buck calls him on it.
“You know, you look pretty beat, like…all the time,” he says. “Everything okay?”
“Yeah, more or less,” Eddie says. “My neighbour is…”
And then he trails off because yeah, his neighbour is still loudly on the phone every night at three, then four, then back to two, then one, then three again, but from what little Eddie can hear, the calls he’s making have become entirely one sided. Like he’s leaving voicemails.
“Oh, that blows,” Buck says, taking an indecently large bite of his sandwich. “I either have really, really great insulation or the quietest neighbours ever.”
“Either way, be grateful,” Eddie recommends and Buck gives him a quick smile in response.

A buddie college AU
all above, all your waiting coming home by probieravi
The route itself is pretty simple. From their apartment in Scarborough to Christopher’s school, it’s a bus ride and a trip on Line 2, and then from the school to SickKids, it’s just another few stops on the train and a transfer to Line 1. They’ve got it down to a routine, him and Chris; back home, Eddie could never quite figure out the transit system, but despite all its many, many flaws, the TTC seems to have their back.
It could have warned him about the guy, though.
or, eddie and chris meet buck on the train.
your dreary mondays by hammersmiths
“Wait, you need a sitter?” Chimney says. Eddie nods. “Maddie’s brother got back in town a few nights ago, he’s looking for work.”
Eddie frowns. He doesn’t know much about this mysterious brother of Maddie’s – doesn’t even really know much about Maddie, either, aside from being Chimney’s girlfriend – but he’s pretty sure every time he’s been brought up in conversation it’s not been particularly inspiring. “Is this the brother who flunked out of college because he spent all his tuition on a motorcycle?”
Chimney colours a little. “Um. No?”
or, Buck babysits Christopher and Eddie is—fine about it, actually.
A Picture is Worth a Thousand Words (But Love is Undefinable) by extasiswings & letmetellyouaboutmyfeels
Eddie Diaz is a professional.
It’s not like he didn’t know who he was going to shoot when he got the call. He’s good at his job, even if he’s a bit of a recluse by industry standards—he knows who Buck is. Knows the name, the pictures, the reputation.
A bit of a wild child. A bit of a party boy. Maybe more than a bit. Rumor has it that right before he made it big he almost got dropped by his agency for being a little too reckless.
But that's fine by him—Eddie can handle beautiful people, he's around them all the time.
Eddie doesn't sleep with models. And Buck doesn't sleep with photographers. They're professionals.
Until they aren't.

For the au games!
Eddie is a writer of romantic novels, one of them will be adapted as a movie and Buck gets one of the leading roles 👀👀👀
HIii
Okay so the vibes are inspired by these books:
The Charm Offensive by Allison Cochrun - The "famous" character and the one who works behind the scenes, Also about working on a TV show set and falling involve behind scenes.
You Had Me At Hola by Alexis Daria - About shooting a film, the two characters do not get on at first, one of them needs a publicity boost, the other is trying to make it big and keep his 7 yr old son out of the paparazzi.
Spoiler Alert by Olivia Date - The "famous" character and the "normal" person.
So Buck is the big actor and Eddie is a novelist whose first book is getting adapted into a Movie, but he's a recluse and he likes it like that; to give Chris a normal childhood (we're just going to accept that authors get enough recognition for this okay?).
Eddie's not sure about Buck getting the role at first, heard he's a fuckboy- Basically he's got a reputation and Eddie doesn't think he's got what it takes to play his serious main lead. There's some tension between them when Buck finds out Eddie didn't want Buck for the role. (Buck got his reputation for a reason but that was before Bobby became his manager and Maddie came back into his life- he just needs his rehabilitate his image and this project is perfect for it.)
But soon Buck's dedication to the role and great acting wins Eddie over and we get 'you're a badass' kind of scene and they become the best of friends. Eddie starts helping Buck with learning his lines and they have lates nights talking about everything.
Bobby is Buck's manager, Chim is his agent. They saved him from his destructive downward spiral. Hen is Eddie's editor so Chris and Denny still have sleepovers. 
During this time we get film set hijinks and we get a scenes if like Chris being on set and Buck treating him like a director/producer. Eddie hanging out in Buck's trailer and they're siting so close and Maddie walks in and is like sorry I interrupted. etc.
Something happens where Buck starts drawing more attention (maybe it's leaked that he's bi?) and so he starts getting followed everywhere and one time he's with Chris and they get corned by some pap and Buck just goes above and beyond to make sure Chris stays safe. We get the line 'Buck, there's nobody in this world I trust with my son more than you' and Eddie realises he loves Buck and they kiss.
I had a lot of fun with this one, I love the niche genre of romance books about filmmaking/film sets/ actors etc. Probably because that's what I studied at Uni - Film not romance books.
Thanks for your ask!

Hi Dee 💙🫂😘 (get to know me)
✏️ when did you start writing fanfic
My first fic I wrote when I was 14. It was on my mother language and about kurt/blaine from glee(I actually like watched some their moments and only some first eps of glee don't judge me please). But I deleted it fast cause I had really offensive comment and well my self esteem always low. So I was writing a little bit for myself in dif fandoms, but deleted it from my comp or throw away notes. Only in buddie fandom I felt inspired again to actually write and share.
🔍 what character do you enjoy writing for the most
I love to write for Buck cause I love him and well I'm so buckcoded. But I also enjoy write Eddie and Bobby (especially Bobby in au I write now. He's my fav there)
☂️ your favorite fanfic from another writer
IT'S SO HAAAAAARD. So I will give some latest fics I've read which just made me feel so many things and change me as person
forget-me-nots by so incredible talented @anxieteandbiscuits
Eddie loses memory close to their wedding about everything from 2015 and need to again fight internalized homophobia when he has a whole fiance, try to live without memories of 8 years of his life, find way to fall in love with Buck again.
JUST READ IT TRUST ME
we are a fresh page on the desk (filling in the blanks as we go) by my super talented love @heartbeatdiaz
Author Buck and actor Eddie meet cute before Eddie's audition for Buck's book, but Eddie doesn't know he talks with his fav author. They work together for months and pining so so much.
If you need something for cute evening with tea under blanket TRUST ME it's ur choice
The Trouble With You Is  by so fantastically talented @princessfbi
Eddie is Deputy US Marshal Eddie and he should protec Buck from Doug cause he's mafia boss and Maddie offers to help put him under arrest. Enemies to lovers, forced roommates, really good action and brat Buck.
If you need something super new in aus for buddie I highly recommend
I should go and find myself (before I ruin someone else)  by my wonderfully talented love @monsterrae1
Buck is looking what best for him in the start of 6s and finds himself in other universe where Buck and Eddie were together, but Buck from this universe died a year ago, and Eddie can't deal with it. So Buck should find his answers here and help Eddie from this universe to move and continue living, not surviving for Chris.
THIS THING WRECKED ME SO GOOD. IT KILLED OLD DI AND MADE NEW ONE. I WILL NEVER BE THE SAME . But I so so so recommend at least once to read it.

Hey what about buddie writers au?
Ooh hello
What kind of ideas do I have
Well I’ve got one writer au on go and will get back to it soon- author buck meets Chris as a potential winner of an art competition attached to his new book- meets Eddie and off we go
What else could we do…
Long term rivalry between 2 writers who are our beloved buddie and have to collaborate on a new project for reasons
Or
Eddie’s a writer and hired to ghostwrite Buck a child tv star/actors autobiography they do not get along until they do
Or
Suffering from writers block buck decides to run some children’s writing classes to see if he can get the love of words back and Eddie signs chris up
And last idea
Eddie has been secretly writing and starts publishing stories in line and they become a hit- buck gets obsessed by the story and the mystery behind who it is- lots of online guesses it’s a famous person - maybe Eddie is actually a well known celebrity soap opera style and Bucks una rival show but they’re still friends or maybe just cannon firefighters ?????
That’s all I got!
Thanks for getting me mind whirling
💕💜💕

Fic authors self rec! When you get this, reply with your favorite five fics that you've written, then pass on to at least five other writers. Let’s spread the self-love 💖
Self rec? I have to pick amongst my children fics? this is like terrible. so terrible @radio-chatter
But if I have to pick…. In no particular order a cross section, if you will, of my various writing tendencies:
1) An Andromeda Tale: The Making of a Pathfinder and a King. Mass Effect Andromeda, the slowest of slow burns MReyder endgame fic.  This is my magnum opus MReyder fic that I swear to Anubis I will finish it eventually.  It’s at >600k and still going.  This was I think the first thing I published on AO3 (or close to it).
Summary: Scott Ryder never saw his life going this way, not that anyone ever asked him his opinion. Now he's pathfinder with too many people depending on his young shoulders and trying to figure out what he actually wants for himself. Reyes Vidal, man of mystery, former pilot and now sometimes smuggler. Who knows where he came from or his motivations but he's come to Andromeda to change his destiny. What neither Scott nor Reyes could have predicted is what their lives would be once they came to Andromeda.
2.  The Dream of the Symbiote’s Host.  Venom.  Symbrock. Complete at 4,511 words. What can I say?  I never thought I’d write tentacle porn but I suppose this is why you should never say never.  It’s a one shot and well…. Yeah it was fun to write.  Might someday dip my toes back in the Symbrock pairing.  I’m also totally blaming this one on you @radio-chatter.
Summary: Eddie’s been holding out on Venom. An accidental side trip into an interior decorations shop reveals something he hadn’t intended for Venom to ever learn about him and it’s all that art print’s fault.
3. Family, Familia, ’Ohana. 911, H50 and SWAT crossover. Eventual Buddie, McDanno and implied Hondo/Deacon platonic (or not). Navyseal!EvanBuckley. Wip at 81,451 words. This is my other, more popular, long work. I just love the pairings involved and my imagination was fed too much Jack Johnson music and this happened. Also my most popular fic on AO3 by a good margin.
Summary: When one family seems lost another comes back from the past. But does Buck want to return to the past or live in the present? And does his present lead to a future he wants? Only he can answer these questions but Steve at least will be there to support him.
4. The Outlaw and the Cartel Boss. Mayans MC. Miguel Galindo/Ezekiel ”EZ” Reyes, Coco Cruz/Angel Reyes. WIP at 98,569 words. Sentinel/Guide AU that ignores almost everything canon. Everyone has that extreme rarepair, can’t exist in canon idea that is possibly overindulgent. This is my version of that. I haven’t even seen much of the show but I really love the work of several of the actors in this show so I smashed my minimal knowledge in with my favorite fanfiction trope and this is what you get. It’s still a wip. I know I haven’t posted in a while but I am still—very slowly—working on it. I think this is the most developed sentinel/guide story I’ve written so far but it’s a trope that I’ve revisited several times now (see my versions of Buddie and Mreyder for this trope too).
Summary: EZ Reyes came online with his mother’s violent death and suffered the consequences of his actions in the aftermath. When Jimenez offers him a deal to turn evidence in on the Galindo cartel, he agreed as he’d brought shame on his tribe by his actions and it was a chance at redemption that he didn’t feel he deserved. He just didn’t anticipate who his guide would be and the amount of trouble they’d generate for him. Miguel had goals—to legitimize the family business, enjoy life and his family. He didn’t anticipate any of the events that forced him online as a guide but now that he has a sentinel he’s not letting him go.
5. A Soul’s Weight. Mass Effect Andromeda. Implied eventual MReyder. Complete. 1,376 words. Does not require any knowledge of Mass Effect. I debated a long time which other fic to recommend to people but this is a short one-off I wrote in literally about an hour that I still find myself coming back to again and again and debating writing more in this particular alternative universe. It’s quite different from most of my other writing but I think that’s also what makes it so interesting. Ancient egyptian diety? Implied multiverse? Taking fanon to the limits? Guilty. Short but sweet but would be the intro to MReyder of mine that I would recommend. Or I suppose you could read Seguir (another AU).
Summary: The futures he had seen taunted him, drew him, seduced him. The possibilities that Scott Ryder presented were... intriguing.  The cry of the ibis called across the sands, chased by the howls of the golden wolves of Anubis that hunted this night.

For the 9-1-1/Harry Potter fen...
It's likely me and hardly anyone else but I know Tumblr enough to know you're out there... ::grin::
I have to admit to adoring Alan Rickman as Snape in the Harry Potter films. But he was all wrong for Snape... (sorry, not sorry!) Alan Rickman was too old to be Snape.
I've done enough Harry Potter fic, and even some Marauder fic, and in doing the math on everyone's ages (to get as close to canon as I can when I'm writing an AU - yes, I appreciate the irony), Snape was only *31* when Harry started Hogwarts.
May I present Oliver Stark (Buck) and Ryan Guzman (Eddie).
Oliver is currently 31. *That* is what Snape should have looked like. Ryan is 37. I can work with that. This is what Sirius and Severus (and Remus and Peter!) should have looked like in those movies!
Sirius is really a big kid. He was thrown into Azkaban at 21 and spent 11 years there. He's still (at best) 21 in his head, even if he is physically 31/32. Okay, maybe 34 when Prisoner of Azkaban happens.
I think I have to go with Ryan as Severus and Oliver as Sirius (although he would be a fun Remus!) to be closer to 'reality'... that gives me a very different head-canon as I write Harry Potter fic. I have a 'Severitis' fic (Severus raises Harry) that is a WIP and I'm going to be thinking about these actors as Severus and Sirius... it may not change what I'm writing but I will be seeing something different from the movies in my head.
Okay, just to cross fandoms more, Dylan O'Brien (Teen Wolf) is also currently 33. (Okay, now really I feel how old I am!) He would be a great Sirius, with Oliver as Remus.
Now I just need a Peter Petigrew... hmmm...
And there's another huge plot bunny that may or may not happen... Yes, evil author is evil!

seven-ish sentences sunday! 📜🎥
tagged by @prince-buck-diaz @spotsandsocks @hippolotamus @panbuckley @wildlife4life <33
here's more from author!buck and actor!eddie au, plus another moodboard bc i cannot stop.
(also, if you wanna be tagged on this fic once i post, interact with this post)
Tumblr media
"Can you read for Gabriel in Scene 23, where he's talking to officer Blake Scatorccio?" Chimney says, looking up from his notes. "Buck will read opposite to you." 
"Yeah, okay." Eddie swallows thickly. In the first books, Gabriel and Blake only have a few scenes, but in the second book their relationship grows stronger. 
Some fans even think the author might be building up to a romantic relationship, claiming it's a slow burn. Eddie isn't sure and he hasn't asked Buck, but just the idea of doing this scene with him makes his nerves set on fire. 
He'll be acting out Buck's words, words the man took time and effort and that he created oh so carefully, so masterfully. Eddie will be telling them to him, looking him in the eye and thinking— what exactly? 
"Eddie? Are you ready?" Buck raises an eyebrow at him. 
"Yeah, Ready." 
Buck clears his throat and starts the scene. 
"Gabe? What are you doing here?" 
"I'm dropping all of the evidence I gathered with Pipe in these last few months." He sighs, feeling as defeated as Gabriel does in the scene. "I just— I can't do it anymore." 
Buck frowns at him, just like he pictures Blake would be doing in the book. "What? You're just gonna give up?" 
"I can't keep going like this! Chasing after some psycho, being haunted by my wife's ghost. I—" Eddie runs a hand through his hair and pulls back. "I need to think of my son, okay? I can't keep doing your job for you, Officer Scatorccio." He sneers. He evokes every feeling of grief and frustration he felt when Shannon first left him with no warning, except for a note. He brings up every feeling of insecurity and of not being good enough to the surface, every feeling of rage and fury that's been simmering under the surface for longer than Eddie is willing to admit, and he pours them all into Gabriel's character. 
In the book and in the script, Blake gets impossibly closer to Gabriel, grabbing him by the arm and stopping him from walking away. In real life, Buck remains seated a few feet away from him. 
Eddie tries not to be disappointed. This is an audition after all and Buck is just reading the lines to move Eddie through the scene, that's how it goes. It's just business. 
"My hands are tied and you know it. The whole police department can't go after just one person, Gabe. You know that. We have too many cases and—" 
Out of the corner of his eye, Eddie can see Chimney. The director held in a rare thrall, the tip of his glasses inserted between his full, dreamy lips, that ankle crossed over the opposite knee, jiggling, jiggling. He looks impressed, Eddie thinks. Maybe. 
"And what?" 
"I think you're close. I think you are stronger and smarter than any one of us— You're extraordinary, Gabriel Alvarez and I am in awe of you every single day. You can't just give up." Buck gazes up at him, a smile gracing his lips, a small and barely there thing that doesn't really match the scene but Eddie can't bring himself to mind. 
"You are too good with words, Officer Scatorccio. But I don't know if I can trust them." Eddie looks down at the script, and then back up at Buck. "I don't know if I can trust you."
"Gabe, I—" And that's the end of the scene. Blake's partner interrupts them, claiming they need to go and Gabriel is left alone at the station. Confused and hopeless. 
Eddie takes a deep breath, telling himself it's over and he gave the scene the best he had. And he thinks he did pretty well— He thinks he did amazing, losing himself in the scene and in Buck's eyes, and hope sizzles under his skin, strong and powerful. 
"That was amazing, Eddie. You really seem to get the character." Chimney smiles at him, forcing him to look away from Buck. "It's really a beautiful thing to see." 
"Thanks." Eddie fidgets with the script. He knows they won't make a decision right then and there, and certainly not in front of him, but something keeps him frozen in place. 
His feet refuse to walk away. 
Hope inside of him moves and weaves through his system like a hurricane, not wanting to leave. 
"You really do understand Gabriel, Eddie." Buck speaks. "That was— Well, I guess Blake Scatorccio said it. Extraordinary." Buck says softly, maybe too soft for what the moment calls. "Thank you." 
Thank God it's dark in the rear of the studio. No one can see the tomato-colored tidal wave surging up Eddie's neck.
"Again, thanks so much for the opportunity." Eddie says, feeling his lips dry up. "I, uh— Yeah. Thanks." He awkwardly waves and turns away, hope trailing behind him like a neon sign showing how much he needs, how much he wants this. He wonders if they can see it. He wonders if they care. 
He thinks Buck might.

911 4x12 spoilers:
Another AMAZING episode! And so much Buddie content, we were so spoiled!
The shady author dude always plays assholes. It's not even his first shady author character, and I love it 😂
My anxiety is spiking for the next two episodes though. Who's getting shot? Who's going to scream who's name?
Will EddieAna break up?
What is the supposed wedding about?
WHO THE FUCK IS GETTING SHOT???
AND THE BATHENA ANGST FROM THE TRAILER??? Fucking MURDER ME it would be less painful.
-Quarantine Anon
I JUST FINISHED WATCHING IT AND YES YES YES YES YES YES! 
We were fed with so much Buddie content! Eddie asking to team up with Buck. Buck not being able to say no. Eddie offering his fact about the willow shrub and then being salty about them picking each other’s brains. Them scratching after the fire ant incident. Teaming up to find the treasure and bringing their gear- THEY TOOK BUCK’S JEEP, I’M SCREAMING.
Bottom line- this episode was a fest of Buck and Eddie content. 
Also, shoutout to Eddie, who saw everyone running behind the truck, then decided to go jump through the window of the engine. 
I absolutely cackled when I saw that actor because my brain went right to Once Upon a Time. It’s been years and that show will never leave me completely. (and now my brain is trying to connect dots for an AU where the Author is writing the 118′s lives or a sort of Heroes and Villians thing...please enable me) 
I know that the wedding is going to be a call for the 118, something about a Bridezilla. But the Bathena angst! I can’t take this, I’m gonna cry over it. I’m gonna watch live and sob on my couch. AND I AM SCARED FOR WHOEVER GETS SHOT, I AM STRESSED!!!!!
(Also, I don’t know if I see Eddie and Ana lasting beyond the season, but I’m also at the bottom of this pit)
But Monday shall ruin us. I have to watch live or I will lose my mind.

do you have any buddie au fic recs?
I do indeed! First, there’s a Buddie AU fanfic collection on AO3 if you’d like to peruse that.
Here are some of my favorite AU fics:
We Fell In Love Dancing Kizomba by @imyourbuddie (82k, E, WIP) - D/s AU
After tragedy strikes close to home, firefighter Eddie Diaz moves him and his son, Christopher, to LA where they can start fresh. Single fatherhood, new job, and a new town stretch Eddie thin, and his biological Dominant needs are barely met. But the fear of repeating the same mistakes keeps him strung tight and unable to let loose.
Evan "Buck" Buckley loves cooking and teaching children in his cooking class. He's a Submissive, this is what he's supposed to do, what his biology is made to do, and he's good at it. But Buck's always had a dream that's so farfetched for a sub that he never dares to even voice it.
When Christopher asks to take a cooking class for children, the two men's worlds collide. Eddie needs to learn to let go, and Buck needs to learn that there's more to life than just tradition and expectations. And maybe, just maybe, they can find happiness along the way.
Tethers by @allyourfandomsbelongtous (121k, E, WIP) - mechanic!Eddie AU 
Eddie's spent years trying to find a place to call home with Christopher, hoping that Shannon will come back and then desperately hoping she wouldn't. He thinks he's in the clear when she shows up at his doorstep, demanding they get back together.
Eddie comes up with a foolproof plan: get a fake boyfriend, convince Shannon he's gay, and live happily ever after with his life mostly intact and Christopher safe and happy. Get rid of fake boyfriend when Shannon gives up, and life can resume as normal.
Enter Buck, and the plan goes to hell in a handbasket.
118 Entertainment by Araloth (37k, E, WIP) - porn star AU
118 Entertainment- One of the preimer adult entertainment companies in the country, and Buck's next big break. Buck's had his own website for awhile, shooting videos in his garage, but this is the big time. Follow Buck as he steps into the world of the 118, and all the new challenges and complications that will come with his new job.
nice to meet ya by @getbvcked (4k, T) - wedding boutique worker!Buck
A cracky AU where Buck works in a wedding dress boutique and Eddie is the hot fiancé...or isssssss he?
Distance and Loneliness are Synonyms by @imadethisforbuddie (27k, E) - actor!Buck AU
Five years ago, Buck made it big as he got a part in the breakout hit called "Station 118". He has everything he could ever ask for, but at the end of the day, he still feels so lonely. He decides it's finally time to go back to his small town where he's left everything behind.
Five years ago, Eddie's best friend tells him that he's leaving. Eddie understands that it's for the best, so he lets him go only to realize that he was in love with him this whole time. It doesn't matter though because Eddie's happy now, though constantly tired from working two jobs, he's built a little life for him and Christopher. It all comes crashing down when he sees Buck again, and everything changes, but his feelings remain the same.
-
TLDR: A painful AU Christmas fic with a happy ending because we need more of those in this fandom. :)
dancing under red skies by dayswithout (series, 45k) - soulmate AU
Buck hates Eddie Diaz on sight.
aka, a soulmate au.
To Be Whole by mansikka (3k, T) - soulmate AU
They say that when you and your soulmate are ready to meet, whatever they write on their skin will appear on yours, and vice versa. Which Buck thinks is bullshit. Right up until words start appearing on his arm.
I Had A Dream About A Burning House by @evanbuckley-diaz (7k, T) - soulmate AU
When you’re little, its the typical monsters under the bed. In high school, there are nightmares about disappointing people by not becoming all that they want you to be.
It all takes a hard left turn when Buck hits college.
Librarian AU by lullatone (series, 29k) - librarian!Buck
At meet the teachers night, Eddie gets more than in bargained for with meeting Christopher’s new school librarian.
love is (a bright idea) by chocobos (3k, NR) - librarian!Buck
"Wow. You weren't kidding about being wild for dinosaurs, huh?" Buck asks.
He giggles again. “I’m not the kind of kid who jokes about dinosaurs, Buck,” the kid replies, with far too much conviction for a child his age. Or relative age, really.
Mr. Buckley’s After Hours Detention by @tk-strand (11k, M) - teacher!Buck
It’s not like Eddie Diaz planned on this. Really, there was no scenario in his mind where he would ever be bringing his son’s teacher a freaking goody basket to class; a homemade goody basket, no less. Then again, Christopher has never had a teacher quite like Evan Buckley.
and my own fic:
for the next time you get lonely (2k, M) - sex shop AU
Buck's sister Maddie owns a sex shop, but occasionally needs a night out. Good thing Buck's ready to step in and man the store.
But he definitely isn't prepared for a flirtatious stranger to come in and fluster him completely with his brown eyes and devastating smile.
Don’t forget to leave comments/kudos for all these amazing authors!!!

Shang Chi, Small-Time Game Devs & Small Horned Dinosaur
Welcome back once again for another episode from the wacky Nerds. This week we review the speculation of the latest offering from Marvel. Discuss issues confronting small game developers and some proposed solutions, and we also have a horny dinosaur. Sound exciting, it is, so strap in and come along for the ride.
So, Marvel have announced the release of a new hero, and it is a Chinese character and speculation has been rife on who it is going to be. There are suggestions of a couple of Chinese heritage actors and everyone seems to be loving it. Even Buck is sounding kind of impressed. There are concerns about the back story of this character, but the hippies will certainly find something to complain about.
Next we have the information about the struggles faced by small game developers trying to generate traction in today’s market place. Independent game developers are producing some interesting content back due to the market place they struggle to survive and remain in the market place. We also ask our resident developer about his experiences and how he dealt with them.
Then we take a moment to learn about a horny dinosaur from China. Oops, sorry, a horned dinosaur from China, called the Auroraceratops, cousin of the Triceratops. Perfect for the individual in the market for a pet that is a little bit different. This beautiful little creature is adorable and a herbivore, with currently eighty examples having been found. We talk about the different possibilities of how it looks and found examples that are very different, including examples that have feathers.
This will be followed by the usual discussions of games we are playing, shout outs, remembrances, birthdays, and events of interest. We have lots of fun and laughter while recording this episode, and we hope you have just as much fun listening to it. As always remember to look after yourselves and look out for each other and stay hydrated.

Tumblr media
"Can we start over?" He asks tentatively, reaching a hesitant hand in sign of a truce. In sign, and in hopes, of a fresh start— a new opportunity. "Hi, I'm Evan Buckley and I wrote some best selling books, just so you know."  Eddie eyes him for a few seconds, biting down a smile he's trying so hard to fight but that Buck can see peaking its way through anyway.  "Alright, fine." The man rolls his eyes and Buck feels a weird sense of smugness and relief and something, starting to brew inside of him. Washing over him, slowly and steady. "I'm Eddie Diaz. And I really kinda hate you, but you're an alright author, I guess." He takes Buck's hands in his and their fingers linger a little more than they should.  Buck blanches at his words. "Just alright? Eddie, you wound me."  Eddie grins, teasing and so fucking insufferable. "I mean, you're okay."  "Okay?! Eddie!" Buck dramatically rests a hand against his heart, as if Eddie just stabbed him with a knife or something. "I literally won a National Book Award and the US Weekly called me a must-read but okay? You call me ‘okay’? Slander. Lies and slander!"  "Bragging much?"  “Alright, Big Shot.” Buck rolls his eyes. “Say what you want, but I remember someone gushing about how awesome and amazing me and my books are.” “Nah uh.” Eddie tsks. “We’re starting over, remember? That never happened.” Eddie raises an eyebrow. “I literally just met you, weirdo. Who even are you?” “God, you’re such a little shit.” Buck laughs, disbelieving but not being able to hide his amusement. “What are you even doing here?” “Well… you know how you’re not the only author in the world?” “Mhmm, sounds kinda crazy but carry on…”
