Losing my mind over “If I can help ease this burden for them why would I not do that?” because Buck’s constantly questioning his worth and his purpose, because he thinks he’s never been good enough—so to justify his existence he thinks he has to be the best—he has to save everyone even at the expense of his own safety—he has to be uSEFUL.
But despite all of that he’s mulling it over with one of his best friends while they’re both three sheets to the wind because deep down he knows he can’t go through with it adjsksks

i can't stop thinking about photographer buck so...
It’s mostly a joke, when Eddie first mentions photography to him. Buck's editing a photo on Lightroom on his phone between calls, a photo of Eddie and Chris at the beach.
It's beautiful and Eddie loves it. Buck took it without them even noticing, the photo being even more special that way. Eddie is laughing at something Chris said, they're both wet from playing on the ocean and they have sand on their arms, hands and shoulders. The sun shining down and making the both of them look golden. The rays of sunshine forming almost a halo around them— the waves at the back making the picture even more breathtaking.
Eddie's half joking, half serious, when he tells Buck to buy a fancy camera to take pictures with.
He didn't think Buck would actually listen to him.
Next thing he knows, Buck's instagram becomes full of digitized film pictures of the 118, their family barbeques at the Grant-Nash's house. Pictures of Chris and Eddie at the beach, of Jee playing at the park, of Maddie laughing at one of Chim's jokes. A lot of pictures of Eddie, too.
Pictures of Eddie, of him rolling his eyes with a hand held out and half covering his face. A picture of Eddie mid-way through a laugh, an easy smile on his face.
And he swears, never before a camera has made his stomach do back-flips the way it does when Buck is trying to take a picture of him.
“I swear, I’ll break that thing if you don’t get that out of my face,” he snaps at him. They're in Eddie's kitchen and he's trying to follow a recipe Linda sent him last week, Buck being an enormous distraction and not helpful at all.
"I like capturing people in crisis, Eddie." Buck smirks, all smug and teasing. Eddie kinda hates him a little bit.
Except for the part where he doesn't hate him at all.
Buck grins, bright and unapologetic and Eddie loves him. So much he aches with it.
"Yeah, okay. Whatever." Eddie rolls his eyes, trying to suppress the fond smile that it's already forming on his face.
Later, he'll see the picture Buck takes. Eddie will be covered in flour, it'll be everywhere. In his arms, his clothes, his cheeks. The kitchen around him a mess of ingredients and half ass attempts at a meal. Eddie looking down with a small, shy smile. The warm, almost orange glow of the kitchen light making him look all soft and golden. Later, he'll see that picture and will think oh.
Oh.
He sees me the same way I see him.
Oh.
- It’s really good to see you. - It’s good to see you.
the fact that shows like first kill, motherland: fort salem, batwoman, and the wilds with female, poc leads + actual wlw rep (that’s actually canon and involves the main leads and not just an afterthought or smth) get cancelled almost immediately infuriates me to no end godddddd

All right, let’s break his down @netflix. I’ve worked it all out and I want to present it to you because I REALLY think it’s worth it. You NEED to turn Percy Jackson into a TV Series.
Percy Jackson and the Olympians
Five books = FIVE SEASONS
The Lightning Thief = 22 chapters
The Sea of Monsters = 20 chapters
The Titan’s Curse = 20 chapters
The Battle of the Labyrinth = 20 chapters
The Last Olympian = 23 chapters
This makes a total of 105 chapters. Chapters = episodes. 105 EPISODES!!!!
!!!!!THEN!!!!!
If you continue on to the Heroes of Olympus series you get:
The Lost Hero = 56 chapters
The Son of Neptune = 52 chapters
The Mark of Athena = 52 chapters
The House of Hades = 78 chapters
The Blood of Olympus = 58 chapters
This makes a total of 296 chapters. That means AT LEAST another 296 EPISODES!!!!
If each chapter feasibly fits into only one episode that makes a grand total of 401 EPISODES!!!!!
This does not take into account the Trials of Apollo. Plus the 14 short stories that, more than likely, take place between the books.
For the love of the Gods, I beg you, please make this a reality!
Teacher: I changed the due date for that project I assigned you all, it's due tomorrow!
Class: *screams*
Teacher: Got you! April fools!
Rin: Haha, who needs April Fools when your entire life is one big, sick joke!
Rin: ...
Rin: ...I'm about to start crying.
Suguro: Shit, dude. C'mere.
Rin, in Suguro's arms: I was raised in a monastery, Suguro. A monastery! The son of Satan, raised in a monastery! My LAST NAME is a play on the word "demon" in Japanese!
Rin, now sobbing: IT'S ONE HUGE FUCKING JOKE WITHOUT A PUNCHLINE
EVAN BUCKLEY WEEK | DAY FOUR ↳ Buck + Favorite Arc 《 finding his real family in los angeles 》
