On a very different note, it was a hoot to see young Sam Winchester again after all these years!

Look, the SPN-audience never forgets. Never.

Just let him call Tommy. I thought you, Buck's friends, all liked Tommy? wtf. and ooooomg what was Tommy gonna write?!??!?!

I was hoping for a more fun episode, but if it ends with more Callum, then I'm okay with it!

Much like everyone I feel like never watching again, but it's also like, it's a dumb primetime drama, calm the fuck down, self. It'll keep being silly and dramatic and fun. There might end up being someone even more perfect for Buck! I realise the writers may very well bungle this storyline, but it could also be fantastic!

Last week I was like 'nope, not watching live anymore, I'll wait for the entire of S8 to be done and watch it in the summer'.

But then there's a fucking Hotshots-episode and Callum Blue is gonna be all over that shit and it's gonna be comedic episode and like, come on. They know just how to pull me back in.

Fuck it, I wanna write a fix-it Bucktommy fic too! Gaah, I have so many emotions about this whole debacle. Like someone said, it's like I was the one broken up with. At the same time I don't know whether I'm Buck or Tommy in this scenario. I just know that I'm hurting.

Fic-wise, I actually have had a longer breakup-and-makeup fic sitting near-ready on my drive for a good while, but since that one doesn't have the raw emotions of the past week in it, I worked some of those emotions out through this fic instead!

It wasn't until I had it written that I realised there's very little dialogue in it, and that Buck is confusingly angry for most of it, in a way that took both me and him by surprise. But I do like them not actually talking things through properly and instead letting their bodies do the talking. But like, of course they live happily ever after, eventually.

I hope you're not tired of the fix-it fics, 'cos I'm sure as hell not! I have so many stories on AO3 marked for later and have been blown away by all that I have read so far! This community is so creative, productive and welcoming and at the end of the day I am glad that we've had this place and time for us. If nothing else, we were given Bucktommy, and we did something magnificent with it! And will keep doing so!

I know why they went with Glee, but even as a straight white woman, I cannot believe that Glee of all things is the thing that divides the "queer world" into pre- and post-. If anything it was Brideshead Revisited.

Boom!

And another thing! Wouldn't be too surprised if Tommy shows up again towards the season ending, and it's all "well, actually we still have feelings and fuck we'll try this again, properly".

Or, for that matter, if a cast member leaves in like season 10 or w/e, they bring Tommy back just 'cos it's easy. It's 9-1-1-, they'd totally do that.

So. Not sure how Tommy shows up again, but wouldn't be surprised to see it happen.

Does this mean we'll see Buck in his gay slutty era? Or straight back to women? (pun unintended).

'Cos I don't mind too much if we actually see him explore his sexuality, like, make more of the storyline, even tho Tommy's not there, you know? But at some point, the hamster wheel truly needs to be done.
