The Strongest Theme Of The Pitt For Me Is How Nothing Is How The Public Expects It. You Think You Know

#my beautifully frazzled wife

it is my solemn duty to join fandoms and be insane and obsessed about platonic relationships. it’s a critical ecological niche and i am happy to occupy it and draw others in like an angler fish who writes intense and wrenching gen fic.

Keeping the Frank & Abby happy marriage dream alive in a world of divorced Frank truthers…

the thing i find most interesting about dr robby is the amount of times another character mentions how unlike himself he is today. we are not seeing baseline dr robby. we are not seeing him on a regular day. i like the dr robby we see and i enjoy watching him run the pitt, but this is him stresed and sad and in a bad mood, apparently. everyone is insisting, truly, honestly, that from the first moment of the day he is not right. and i find that so wildly fun.

we have never met the real dr robby. what he's like on any other day is a mystery.

i love heather collins so fucking much. she starts her day off at work with morning sickness and dana is the one person who knows she’s pregnant. she shows dana a stroller she’s been wanting for a while and uses the money she won from BETTING ON A STOLEN AMBULANCE!!! (objectively hilarious) to finally splurge and get it. she alludes to having miscarried before (“not until i pass twelve weeks. not this time.”) and it’s so obvious how hopeful she is and how badly she doesn’t want to do anything to jinx it (see: testicular torsion case and the way she opens up to the mom). and then we see her have a few small stomach cramps and she brushes them off so quick but. she knows. and we know. and amidst all of this she helps a teenage girl get the abortion she wants and needs because she’s a damn good doctor. and immediately afterwards goes to the bathroom and confirms that she is indeed miscarrying. and then the 6 year old girl comes in after drowning and they can’t save her and you can see how close she is to crumbling but she steels herself and carries on because there are patients that need her. and THENNN she has to work the case with the surrogate mom !!! and the delivery gets dicey and the baby’s apgar is only 3 and the mom starts hemorrhaging and her mask starts to slip and robby sees it and he knows and they make it their mission to ensure that this mother and child make it out in one piece. and they fucking pull it off. and then she finally lets herself really cry in the ambulance bay. and it’s just so heartbreaking and raw and real. i have so much love for heather collins she is such an incredible character and she deserves the world

The funniest part of the Gemstone family easily accepting Kelvin’s gay relationship with his ex-satanist best friend man servant is that it comes after four seasons of them aggressively hating Judy’s husband BJ for being a secular optometrist

saying “i want him” about the character but not in a romantic or sexual way . i just Require him i need to Obtain him

I’m sure I’m breaking some sort of fandom etiquette with this but GODDDDD yall have got to see this edit. I’m obsessed with it

well…yes.

I enjoy every character on The Pitt equally. I delight in seeing all of them and cringe at none of them. My favorite character is whoever is on screen at any given moment.
