jsyk its a day later and i have changed my mind about this. i am currently rewatching the show and while i believe langdon is a little insane about robby and wants his attention and approval, i think robby does like langdon. i mean, it's in the description of the show: langdon is his right hand man. he is trusted. he is respected. robby continuously lets langdon run free in a way he doesn't with everyone else because that is his golden resident and he trusts langdon's skills and knowledge to get the job done. they have probably gotten a beer outside work. they have probably attended the same barbeque. i definitely still think langdon is more attached to robby than robby is to him, but now i think robby probably gets dinner with jake and tells him what ridiculous thing langdon said that day and thinks of the moment fondly.
idk i wrote a fic about langdon and robby being close before the shift from hell and all the ways they slipped into being family and what was lost after, and then i saw a take that was like. robby outright rejected langdon calling him a friend during the shift. he corrected him to best resident when langdon suggested best friend. and now im thinking were they ever actually that close. has langdon just been desperately seeking validation and praise and attention from robby and robby has no interest in ever giving it to him outside a work context. langdon leaves work and tries to arrange robby coming over for dinner at the weekend. robby leaves work and doesn't think about langdon until he returns to the hospital the next day.
#the pitt#i am full circling i am freewheeling i am alive and reading into characters who refuse to be read into#we have ONE DAY OF THEIR LIVES. a day in which robby is acting insane and langdon is acting insane#and they are inundated with four strangers they must teach#and thats BEFORE the shooting#i have decided that i categorically disagree with the take that langdon is obsessed with robby#because he's trying to ingratiate himself with someone who can protect him etc.#and the reason he doesnt like santos is because he picks her out as a person who could harm him#but thats because im rewatching and like. santos gives langdon REASON to dislike her#she does a trigger point injection without permission and then later puts a patient on bipap without permission#like he is trying to get it into her head how this environment works and she is steamrolling the rules entirely#and that is by episode four. which is before she ever finds that bottle thats hard to open#like all she does for the first 4 hours of the day is say mean comments and ignore rules i would dislike her too#and similarly. i dont think there are ulterior motives to his respect for robby#i think he genuinely likes the dude. i think he likes most of them#i am watching and i am not seeing him sucking up or trying to ingratiate himself as a friend. i am seeing him 3-4 years into this role#and knowing robby. and trying to poke at him early in the morning#but then again. i also dont think langdon is like. this malicious super highly addicted drug addict either#i think he really did think he was trying to wean himself off and he just kept not being able to do it and kept thinking just a little#longer. just a little more and it will be fine. i will be fine. no one will know and it doesnt matter and as long as i DO wean myself off#it will be like nothing happened at all.#anyway. having lots of thoughts#talk
