the way if i didn’t know better and just casually turned on this episode as a general audience member i would deadass think buck and eddie are dating and im not even kidding
buck is doing (or not doing) what he is out of anxiety & insecurity & a whole bunch of complicated, valid feelings. eddie is also objectively correct in being like, hey buddy. a boundary or two is necessary! for both of you! this makes SENSE and it’s HARD and it’s GOOD omfg
you can tell buck feels absolutely terrible about theo’s destruction and then causing chris to fall. he’s overwhelmed and has zero idea how to handle this little ball of chaos but i have faith he’s gonna pull through. with eddie and maddie’s help
“christopher diaz has two dads” is only canon as an ao3 tag. buck is a vampire who must be invited in; he’s never ever ever ever EVER going to assume he’s anyone’s dad. certainly not chris.
