Would Love If Season 8 Had The 118 Repping The LAFD At Pride, BUT Specifically While Theyre Under Gerrard.

Would love if season 8 had the 118 repping the LAFD at Pride, BUT specifically while they’re under Gerrard. Hear me out, ok. You’ve got homophobic, misogynistic, racist dinosaur being FORCED to attend Pride for his JOB and having to seem like he’s enjoying it so he doesn’t get fired. He has to watch the openly lesbian firefighter under his command show the openly bisexual firefighter under his command all the wonders of the event, perhaps with the help of the openly gay firefighter that used to be under his command who is shacking up with aforementioned openly bisexual firefighter. He has to watch them be HAPPY and COMFORTABLE and FREE and he can do NOTHING because he’s representing the LAFD, he’s getting paid to walk through a crowd, this should be one of the easiest days of his career. And yet he hates it. He’s dying to say something homophobic and wipe the smiles off everyone’s faces but he CAN’T, and the firefighters who have had to put up with ridicule under his command know he CAN’T and shove it in his face as much as possible. Maybe he even breaks and causes a scene which goes viral and puts pressure on the brass to fire him, or maybe he just suffers in silence. Either way, the 118 will finally get their comeuppance in the form of happiness and rainbows and acceptance and love.

Soooo are we ever gonna get a "You died, Bobby" conversation a la the repeated "You died, Buck" conversations??? Feels like a heart attack is a significant thing to brush over with a "yeah I've just been resting for two weeks but now I'm back baby".

There's something bittersweet and beautiful about Bobby accepting his medal after the fire... He couldn't take it when it was perfect and new, when it was a representation of everything he thought he wasn't, but now that it's been pulled from the ashes, burned but still shining just like him... yeah. It's his medal now.

Tell me why I've yet to see a video/edit of the tevan/bucktommy reveal in 7x06 to that one audio from TASM. You know, the one that goes:

"What happened to your face? It's filthy!"

"Oh, yeah, I was cleaning the chimney"

"We have no chimney!"

"Whaaaaaaaat!"

Like come on! It's literally MADE for this scene. Someone please make it for me. Please.

Whatever you do, don't think about Eddie ending the season 'isolated' due to the fact that in the case of Bobby's death he's going to have no one to comfort him.

Dont think about how he's basically put the nail in the coffin in his and Marisol's relationship.

Dont think about how he has just retraumatised his son, who's now probably going to be very angry and ignore him for a while.

Dont think about how he's finally let Shannon go so he doesn't have the ghost of her to fall back on.

Sure, he'll have the rest of the 118, but they've all got their own people to turn to.

And REALLY dont think about him turning to Buck for comfort in the hospital, but sees Buck is already being comforted by Tommy, because he doesn't need Eddie as much now he has Tommy.

Just don't think about it.
