Severide: The Houdini of Firehouses
So, let’s talk about Kelly Severide, shall we? The man, the myth, the firefighter who seems to have a permanent case of wanderlust. You’ve seen him storm into a burning building with all the grace of a cat, and you’ve probably also seen him storm out of Chicago with all the subtlety of a toddler throwing a tantrum.
Severide: The Arson Avenger or AWOL Arsonist?
Now, the official line is that Severide left to pursue his passion for arson investigation. That’s a fancy way of saying he got bored of saving kittens and wanted to play detective. I mean, who wouldn’t want to trade in the thrill of dousing flames for the thrill of, well, finding out who doused the flames? It’s like swapping a firehose for a magnifying glass.
But let’s be real here. We all know the real reason Severide keeps disappearing: he's got a serious case of FOMO (Fear Of Missing Out). Every time there’s a new arson case in a different city, it’s like a siren song calling him away. “Severide, come play detective in Arizona!” “Severide, there’s a serial arsonist in Alabama, and they need your expertise!” It's like the guy has a GPS tracker on his heart that leads him to the next burning building, no matter how far away it is.
Stella Kidd: The World’s Most Patient Wife
Meanwhile, back in Chicago, we have Stella Kidd, the epitome of patience. She’s the firefighter equivalent of a lighthouse keeper, always there, shining a beacon of love and support while her husband is off chasing arsonists across the country. I’m pretty sure she’s developed a sixth sense for when Severide is about to drop a “surprise” on her. Something like, “Honey, I’m off to investigate a string of suspicious dumpster fires in Montana. Be back in... maybe.”
Will Severide Ever Settle Down?
The million-dollar question is: will Severide ever put down roots? Will he ever be satisfied with just being a regular old firefighter in Chicago? Or will he continue to be the arson-investigating nomad of the firefighting world? Only time will tell. But one thing’s for sure: as long as there are fires to put out and mysteries to solve, Severide will be there, ready to dive headfirst into the action.
