you're under my skin

still not over the fact that in making buck christopher’s legal guardian should he die, eddie basically said, “here is my heart. here is the single thing i care about more than any other in the world. here is what matters to me more than i can describe. and if i’m no longer here to nurture and love and help it grow, then i am trusting it with you. there is no one else i would trust to do what i wanted, fight for it the way i wanted, but you.”

You act like you're expendable. But you're wrong.

Because, Evan, you came in here the other day and you said you thought it would have been better if it had been you who was shot.

Under Pressure // Survivors

So, we all know that Eddie hated Buck so easily saying he was the one who should've been shot.

But can we take a minute to acknowledge how much it also hurt him? He's not just exasperated. There's a reason he's so emotional talking about it later.

It's absolutely gut wrenching to hear someone you love talk about themselves like they don't matter. Like their life doesn't matter. And Eddie has been listening to Buck's self-deprecation for a long time.

This was just what finally broke him.
