Chi-Hard Chicago Fire fans see a variety of options for Mouch's future
In a discussion titled "Now that Mouch gets older" in the show's subreddit, original poster u/snakeinsheepclothes (https://www.reddit.com/r/ChicagoFireNBC/comments/w2qif4/now_that_mouch_gets_older/) asked other fans for suggestions about the best way to ensure Mouch sticks around once he retires, proposing, "My idea was some kind of janitor/repairman role for him in the firehouse," then adding, "I can't imagine CF without him and I don't want them to kill him." Redditor u/Phantommike20 (https://www.reddit.com/r/ChicagoFireNBC/comments/w2qif4/comment/igrx63r/?utm_source=reddit&utm_medium=web2x&context=3), however, rejected this fate for the firefighter, writing that Mouch's wife, Trudy, has a good-paying job on "Chicago P.D.," meaning Mouch doesn't have to work, and in any case, he has never indicated any interest in a janitorial career.
On the same thread, u/KnightKal (https://www.reddit.com/user/KnightKal/) pitched another alternative for Mouch's retirement, writing, "Just make him the house mascot, unofficial cook, dog walker, uncle that doesn't ever leave," then adding that he could serve as a volunteer at the firehouse whose hobby would be sharing stories about his adventures as a firefighter.
So, all of this being said about his potential future on the show, does Christian Stolte himself ever pitch concepts to the scriptwriters about Mouch's narrative? "Well, yes and no," Stolte told Starry Constellation Magazine (https://starrymag.com/christian-stolte-chicago-fire/) when asked about his input on the series. "The writers inevitably incorporate aspects of an actor's personality that they have observed into future storylines." However, he then added, "But it's not often I propose Mouch-related ideas directly to them."
