In Between

langdon/mel, the pitt (2k, oneshot, complete)

"Mel. Did you ask your boyfriend to watch another man’s kids with you?” Frowning, Mel tilts her head. Because - well, yes, she did. Because Mel enjoys spending time with Tanner and Kenzie, and Frank had seemed nervous about Lisa and wasn’t sure he even wanted to go, but Mel encouraged him anyway because it was time, Abby had already moved on, and it’s not like the kids would mind, Frank tends to hover anyway, and this way Mel could practice braiding Kenzie’s hair again and get Tanner to share some of his new favorite songs and - Mel clears her throat as Samira’s smile slowly grows bigger, reminding her that she's supposed to give an answer. “Yes, I did. Scott didn’t seem to mind.”

I should like to see Emma in love and in some doubt of a return. It would do her good.

someone keeps beaming these straight into my brain while im asleep. anyway, mel meets abby first AU. okay so probably not first first, but langdon's at rehab and mel's not seeing him around, and she gets into a book club that is not so much of a book club and more like an excuse for middle aged moms to meet and complain about their lives which is. okay. (mel can't leave, alright, she paid the subscription fee and becca keeps asking about her book club friends and it's nice to have something to talk about that's not strictly under doctor-patient confidentiality and you know what, most of the time they do read the books, so there's that. she's getting her money's worth.)

abby is there and mel doesn't not like abby, but it's a kinda hard to grow closer to a person you don't really understand much, and abby keeps complaining about her doctor husband and every little barb does feel a little pointed, after a while, because mel's told them she's a doctor a good five times already, but it's whatever. abby doesn't tell them about rehab or her job or her kids' names. abby doesn't really tell them much at all about her life, really, only her feelings, which might perhaps have been a clue all along but not one mel was about to pick up. (frank texts her once i could not tell you what the last thing she ate was but i sure could tell you how she felt about it.)

and then one time mel catches her at the tail end of an outburst, all on her own, and abby takes it out on her in that passive agressive, insidious way some people have that is all the more annoying for how roundabout it is. and mel calls her out on it because it is unfair and it's not mel's fault that abby's husband doesn't have the time or energy to be around her, and it's not just because they're both doctors because mel makes the time to be here, she is here right now with abby so!!! it's unfair!!! and then suddenly mel blinks and she's got an armload of wailing abby whose incoherent, tipsy mumblings (of course there's wine at book club) amount to half apologizing, half asking mel why her husband can't be a little more like her which is NOT a question that mel can answer.

so she does what she can which is she puts abby on an uber home and before she can think better of it, climbs in with her because, well, the woman is drunk. and on the drive home, abby gets very quiet and eventually goes my marriage is in shambles and i think my husband might be cheating on me with a woman at work and so when mel drags abby up to her front door, the uber waiting for her on the driveway, the only thing mel's thinking is thank god this conversation is over and not hey this garden patch looks awfully familiar so she gets utterly blindsided when abby's husband opens the door and it's... frank. frank who'd she'd been texting all afternoon. frank who she'd grown extremely close with in the months since he came back from rehab. frank who, apparently, hasn't been spending time around his wife because he's been spending it with mel.

DERRY GIRLS | 1.01

[cvldbones]

"tumblr's the only social media without algorithms!" "you can still be anonymous on tumblr!" "tumblr's so nice because you don't have to show your face!" WRONG tumblr is special because you can have 3000 followers and still get an average of seven likes a post. i'm doing stand up comedy at a packed venue and one person is laughing

Derry Girls – 2.02: Ms De Brún and the Child of Prague

[cvldbones]

i’m never not cackling rewatching when langdon and robby are getting onto santos for her bipap mishap and oh no here comes garcia! surely she’ll have something to say! then santos has her sad little eyes and garcia shows such obvious favoritism and langdon looks so fucking peeved like he doesn’t also have his own favorite.

tagged by @miracle-and-wonder — 4 characters that represent you 🤍

rory gilmore (gilmore girls): carries 15 books to read simultaneously. daddy issues making her desperate to be loved and therefore a little bit stupid in the process. has never heard of “setting boundaries.”

diane nguyen (bojack horseman): token liberal friend. angry feminist who loves the people in her life even when they don’t quite fit the same values she ascribes to, rendering her a little hypocritical. think about her saying, “that means all the damage i got isn’t ‘good damage.’ it’s just damage,” every single day.

amy santiago (brooklyn 99): competitive. incredibly organized and type a with a silly side that’s nurtured by her golden retriever husband. unselfconsciously ambitious. teacher’s pet.

alex dunphy (modern family): used to be told i looked like her growing up, lol. driven. smart. doesn’t always feel like she fits with her family, but loves them anyway. once again think about the episode where she has a breakdown and has to go to therapy and her mom says, “honey, i was just you for two hours and could barely hold it together,” daily.
