You know, regardless of Buddie and queer Eddie and all of that, I just really need Chris to tell Eddie he doesn't need a new mom

I tags from gotta add @buckttommy

#THIS is the one#I need Chris to tell Eddie that he's okay with it being just them forever#because Eddie has been hearing from literally everyone about what his son should want or what his son needs#and he has yet to go to the actual source.#This is... such a big and recurring problem for him and I wonder if it doesn't stem from his relationship with HIS mother specifically#where Helena directly accused Eddie of being a source of harm for his son. So fast forward some years later where he's constantly (and#drastically) overcorrecting to avoid that. But he's never actually... talked to Christopher. Even when he left the 118.#He left “for Christopher's sake” but Christopher said himself “I never asked you to do that” and Christopher has never asked him to date#around and put himself out there in search of a wife/mother either because if nothing else#7x1 should have indicated that Shannon is still enough for Christopher too. That's why it still hurts. That's why he's still angry. That's#why he's making all these piss poor romantic decisions. He's like... she was enough for US we just weren't enough for HER.#And so Eddie needs to know — he needs to hear directly from HIS SON'S MOUTH — that he's okay with this. He's okay with just them.#And Eddie will never get off his *own* hamster wheel until he hears Chris say that he can stop fighting against this Shannon-shaped hole in#their lives and just... let it be.#Because Eddie's going to keep making decisions and he's going to keep harming himself / these women / and his son in the process#I know this isn't what he wanted. No single parent worth their salt ever wants to leave a trail of love interests behind because the goal is#always going to be providing stability for their child. I KNOW this is never ever what Eddie wanted. And I can't imagine it's what#Christopher wants either. So they need to sit down and have a proper chat — sooner rather than later. Eddie raised his kid to have a voice.#Now he needs to listen and Christopher needs to say it.#tv: 911

'people can write whatever the fuck they want' and 'its good to approach writing about sensitive topics with some diligence and forethought' are statements which can and do coexist

Even if I didn’t have a solid plan, in the back of my head, I always assumed I’d kill myself.

Now I’m an adult and people my age have their lives in order and I’m stuck here, confused, because I never planned to be alive and I’m so far behind.

I feel like I’ll never catch up.

Hey all.

I want to make an addition to this. I made this post a long time ago.

I’m currently back in university, and I’ve made so much progress with my trauma. I’m in a loving relationship.

Things can and will get better. It’s not too late.

Nothing is perfect by any means. But I’m happy I’m still here and didn’t kill myself. I hope you get to that point, too 💕

The addition is important! I see the original post circulating a lot, but the addition is important!

New addition two years later. I’m still going strong!

I’m getting married. I’m still in that loving relationship.

I’ve learned that there’s no real timeline. It’s okay. And while it sucks that I lost time, there’s still so much for me to experience and enjoy.

Newest addition. 7 years after the original post!

I got married last month! My dog is laying on me snoring. I’ve learned to have healthy friendships and relationships. I’ve learned that I’m not alone and that even when things are hard, I’m going to be okay.

I finished my rewatch/relisten of the Vox Machina campaign in mid-December (although I recently re-embarked on the second half of the Chroma Conclave arc hoping season 3 of TLVOM will be announced (released?? 🤞) by the time I reach "A Bard's Lament"). Predictably, I bawled, AGAIN, but by then I'd already been scribbling and sketching ideas for this for... a couple of weeks? Hence the little WIP preview last month.

I'll never shut up about this moment. It's just as beautiful as it's heartbreaking, in- and off-game, especially taking into account all the context of characters/people involved.

Also, bonus, because after I finished sketching that 6th frame I thought a hug was needed.

"You broke my heart." and all of ours as well 💔

"I guess it's a good thing you didn't insist on a plus one, Buckaroo." "Well... actually..."

Hen pauses the game the fourth time Buck's phone chimes.

"Are you going to answer that?" She asks, giving him a pointed look.

"No." Buck leans back against the couch's back with a huff. "It's Maddie again, asking what I think about the flower arrangements, or the centerpieces, or something."

"I thought you were banned from wedding planning."

I can properly tell that writers are gunning for a ship, even when one of them gets a new love interest, when every moment of the relationship revolves around the True Ship.

For example: Chenford.

When Tim started dating Ashley, the entire episode did not revolve around her and Tim. Instead, it focused on Tim and Lucy’s competitiveness during a treasure hunt. When Tim and Ashley had an argument over their Kojo, a dog he shares with Lucy, the entire point was Lucy helping him open communication and actually listen to Ashley. When Tim and Ashley went on vacation to Hawaii, the entire episode was about Lucy asking if Tim was going to marry her and whether he wanted to. Even him “fake proposing” was for the sake of pranking Lucy. Later, when Tim was injured, and Ashley asked him to retire and they finally broke up, the focus was as Tim hiding his injury from Lucy, her worry over him, her unwavering support. Tim and Ashley’s relationship was never about them, it was about Chenford.

So, ok, look at Buck and Tommy.

The entire episode where we learn about Buck’s interest in Tommy, revolves around Tommy’s friendship with Eddie and Buck’s friendship with Eddie and wanting to get his attention. Then, their first date has Eddie crashing their date and Buck coming out revolves around Buck feeling like he’s lying to Eddie and trying to come out to him. And then, the wedding where Tommy is his +1 will revolve around Buck and Eddie looking for Chim The Hangover style? It’s crystal clear to me who this relationship is about (other than Buck’s obvious and wonderful self discovery).

(And Marisol, well, let’s just say she had 5 secs of screen time before this and then served her purpose to bring Eddie’s catholic guilt and relationship missteps into a focus)

Omg Eddie discovering something about Marisol that makes him question whether he knows her at all and going to Buck like “do you ever wonder if you truly can love a person if they hide a big part of their lives?” And Buck starts spiraling about coming out.
