In times of trouble, Richard Siken comes to me...
THE WAY SHE POSED AFTERWARDS HFKFBDK
My artistic rendition:
The way he liked this Tommy appreciation post 🥺
see how the majority of the bucktommy fandom processes their outrage and grief? not with death threats or any number of other disgusting responses. very respectful, very mindful, very demure

GOOD LORD
Happy birthday to AO3 🎂🎉
Happy birthday to a platform that has contributed to so many positive aspects of my life: real life friends, online friends, global understanding, mental health, writing inspiration, career objectives, joy in a favorite hobby, self-esteem as a writer, and license to WRITE WHATEVER THE FUCK I WANT.
Happy Birthday my saviour ❤️
One of my biggest issues this episode is why the hell did Bobby agree to help Gerrard? Like I really have a problem with them making Gerrard out to be a job especially with what we got from him last season showed he’s still the same person he’s always been. It’s really not sitting well with me.
Honestly Gerrard getting a happy ending was one of the strangest decisions of this season because he’s been actually retconned into this crotchety old man rather than a raging bigot, which is strange because it’s supposed to be the entire conceit of his character. Five months ago he was all but calling Tommy a fairy to his face and now the worst thing he does on set is apparently… call his PA “kid”?
What hurts worse than Bucktommy breakup is that Tommy is now left with no friends. Including Hen and Chim. Because Tommy might be their friend that they call sometimes, but Buck is their little brother. And Tommy broke his heart, so of course they aren't going to reach out to Tommy.
And canonically this character is never again going to show up since Lou actually exited the show.
So not only Tommy lost his love, but also his friends which he had very few to start with.
None of this would happen if the breakup was handled better.
The breakup isn't even the issue here at this point.
👀👀 Eddie goes to Tommy’s place to lay into him after the bubbling incident, first for breaking Buck’s heart and then for getting his hopes up again
But then Tommy opens the door and his face is messed up and his arm is in a sling after he was attacked by a drunk while responding to a call. He had been debating texting Evan from the hospital but ultimately decided against it and has just been home wallowing in the pain because after all doesn’t he kind of deserve to have his ass kicked right now
And Eddie decides nope, no this is not happening, you’re both being dumb and you’re gonna work this out because you’re both my friends and you love each other and you’re both miserable now
Buck is in bed, checking his text thread with Tommy for the 100th time, when he accidentally drops his phone on his face but as it slipped out his hand and he tried to catch it, he accidentally texted Tommy this
Tommy rushing to get his shoes on to race to the loft in his pajamas, assuming it’s an emergency, because the only logical thing he can come up with is “get here, fucking here”.
Buck opens his eyes when the incessant pounding at his door won’t stop and opens it to find Tommy with 2 different shoes on, both untied, pajama pants, flannel shirt unbuttoned with nothing underneath it, curls astray, eyes red and puffy, snot running down his nose.
“Oh, uh. Hey”
A wild Crowley appears because I saw a pic 👀😌✨️💕
i was blogging about destiel for 4 years after they sent the gay angel to superhell and didn’t let the bi guy reciprocate and instead gave him a disrespectable death and told him a shitty hellish heaven was what he deserved when he just wanted to live as one last fuck you to queer rep for men 30+.
i’ve been here before. i’m not going anywhere.
i came here for ongoing positive queer rep for men 30+ and i’m staying bc i know when the show don’t got me, fandom does. fandom always has, bc these stories mean more to us than any beancounter or wayward showrunner could care to comprehend. i’m staying to create and to continue celebrating everything bi buck and gay tommy and bucktommy gave us (up to a point).
this is not where their story ends. this is where fandom takes custodianship and gives the characters and their journey together everything denied to them by tptb. we honour them, and heal ourselves, by carrying on their story the way they deserve, and the way we deserve.
that is why fandom exists; to fix what was so carelessly broken and to keep stories alive that deserve to be kept with care and understanding.
i appreciate every one of you who has shared joy and positivity for these beautiful queer men and their forever kind of love, and just know that i will continue doing the same.
Oh.
All I wanted was an older gay man who has never known true love to have his sunshine boyfriend.
All I wanted was to see atleast for once that older gay men don't get left alone.
All I wanted for once was to see that queer people who take blow after blow that life throws at us at least for once find happiness.
All I wanted was to see for once that an older lonely queer man, who didn't have anyone on his side , who didn't have a found family to support him, finding them later in life.
For once I wanted to see it's never too late to be included even if you have been rejected time and time again.
To see a man for whom NO ONE showed up other than his boyfriend, to finally have people at his side from now on.
All I wanted was to see older queer people getting to have their happily ever after too, not just romantically.
I guess this was too much to ask for.
But it's alright I guess, Tommy Kinnard will find a family in us, the older queer people who are just like him left behind or forced to leave people behind.
me when a character who was completely powerless gains power and proceeds to lose themselves in the intoxication of it before coming to and being horrified by their own capacity for bloodlust
May I introduce you all to The Poppy War series by R. F. Kuang
They could and they would
Whats so funny about Rocker to me is that his insults always sound like flirting. Like he genuinely sounds like he’s trying to fuck everyone at swat and i cant take him seriously.
So I’ve decided Rocker is infact not a dick at random times and instead is just extremely bisexual and really really bad at flirting
Ok ❤️
yay ❤️
