I mentioned this in the notes of a post I reblogged earlier today, but I just think it is very interesting how they had Buck and Tommy realise something about each other in two different moments of tension:
I don't know. Call me delulu if you want here, but I think it is very interesting how they both are faced with how the other processes an emotional moment (taking things face-value when he perhaps shouldn't; running - acting instead of voicing concerns or feelings, because in the actions there are the care and love).
This, also, goes with what I've believed they've been doing since 811 - work on their issues in the background, make it so they see each other's motives, and so they can understand each other in a deeper level before they go have that talk, before they decide to try again. They're truly starting to see each other now.
The best part? They still want each other.

i just think buck looks best pressed into a mattress with wet eyes and flushed cheeks, whining for it while tommy goes “you’re just made for it, aren’t you?” but what do i know i guess.
From a poetry collection by Mary Oliver, where after a hundred poems showcasing gentle observations on nature and animals, she hits you with this:
what it feels like losing another mutual to that 911 show where those guys havent even fucked yet
Oh it’s dire. The people in the notes don’t know Buck’s current love interest is a man who he’s in a will they won’t they situation with and they just hooked up two episodes ago.
the amount of people who think 911 is supernatural 2.0 level queerbait when there’s been a married lesbian couple central to the plot since season one episode one and one of the supposed “bait” characters is canonically bisexual in a situationship with a gay man is genuinely upsetting, and i can’t blame anyone who hasn’t seen the show for thinking that
the canon queer characters who are actually in the show and who you should actually talk about. i am only counting the ones that are reaccuring to season 8 (the current season airing) as other queer characters are no longer in the show (Eva, Michael, David + the multitude of other queer minor characters)
Hen & Karen Wilson: two black lesbian women who have been married since season 1. Hen works for the 118 fire house and Karen is a rocket scientist. They have two children together and fostered other children.
Josh Russo: Works at the LA emergency dispatch as a lead supervising dispatcher, best friend to Maddie [Buckley] Han (man of honor at her wedding!!!!). Loves Halloween and reality television, and all around warm, kind man who deserves someone!!!!
Evan "Buck" Buckley & Tommy Kindard: Buck (Bi) and Tommy (Gay). They are in a bit of a will-they-won't-they-sleeping-with-your-ex-situationship. Buck is newly out and works at the 118 fire house. Tommy has been out for a few years who has past history with the 118 fire house and currently is a firefighter pilot. Here is them making out sloppy style after running into each other at a bar for your viewing pleasure:
