1, 10, 15 for the pitt asks!
1. Who is your favorite character?
Answered here: Trinity Santos. Second favorite is Dana Evans. (Good) Nurses should run the world and she's the BOSS.
10. Which character dynamic is your favorite?
The old guard of Robby, Abbot, Dana, and Collins. Robby and Dana are siblings and I love them. Robby and Abbot are besties who are brothers and should also kiss now and then and I love them. Robby and Collins are exes who still love each other even though they probably should be and stay exes and I love them. Dana and Collins are survivors of a system that doesn't work for them who love the man it does work for because he hates it, too, and I love them. Dana and Abbot are so devoted to Robby it makes my heart sing and I love them. Collins and Abbot, idk, hope to see them in S2.
15. Would you rather work day shift or night shift?
Night shift. I think it's where I'd be most needed and appreciated.

1, 12, 13, 24 (for The Pitt asks!)
Who is your favorite character?
Trinity Santos, my abrasive, unlikable queen. She's damaged but she wears it with defiance. She comes off flippant and aggressive but if you pay attention, she's supportive and thoughtful. I could and should write a thousand words about her but the bottom line is I love everything about her. Even, probably especially, everything the collective you hates about her.
12. Which doctor would you want to handle your care if you were in the ER?
Heather Collins. She's kind and thorough and listens.
13. Which nurse would you want to handle your care if you were in the ER?
Dana is my favorite but I'd want Princess for competence and Mateo for care.
24. What storyline do you most want to see in the next season?
Hmmmmm. Honestly, I want to be surprised. But my activist self would like to see a full throated defense of trans access to care. For kids.

nice pair of characters who trust each other more than anyone else in the whole entire world it would sure be a shame if one of them betrayed that trust for the sake of trying to keep the other alive. it would sure be a shame to love someone so much you destroy them

Hello and welcome to the first annual gift exchange for The Pitt!
Whether you find yourself writing fic, making art, building playlists, or contributing to this fandom in other ways we would love to see you join us in sharing that talent through a gift exchange.
We will be opening our event sign ups from June 19th-July 6th, giving you a little over two weeks to decide if and how you'd like to participate this year. The goal is to test the waters this year and set the bar for the years to come as we receive more show content and naturally, a happy growth in our fandom.
Shortly before gifting week we will create an A03 collection for those who cross-post for the event, as well as a Tumblr masterlist organized by ship.
6/19 — Sign ups open.
7/6 — Sign ups close.
7/11 - 7/13 — Assignments go out. Participants may begin messaging their matches through Anon asks ONLY.
9/1 — A mod will reach out to you to ensure you are on track for gift delivery. There is no shame in bowing out, just make sure communication is made so we can grab a pinch-hitter.
9/25 - 9/28 — Gift giving begins! You may reveal yourselves anytime within these four days!
Be kind! Fandom is a space to let loose and have fun. We're here to share our love for the show.
While any and all forms of media are welcome, the exchange will not welcome any works created using generative AI.
This is not a kink event, but we will allow NSFW submissions. That said, it is our expectation participants are able to follow the mindset of "your kink is not my kink and that's okay" as long as the works posted are appropriately tagged. It is a creator's job to tag properly and the audience's job to know their own limits when it comes to media consumption.
Make sure you respond to your mod in a timely fashion so we know you still intend to gift something. The goal is to have assignments confirmed and the first anon asks sent within seventy-two hours of assignment.
If you find yourself in a situation where you will be unable to finish your gift by September 28th, please do not feel guilty. Life happens, creative blocks happen. We understand. Just reach out to whichever mod gave you your assignment so we can get a pinch-hitter ASAP. Failure to deliver a gift without communication may lead to a ban from future events.
Don't stress, have fun, enjoy getting to know your giftees through the asks. You may even find you have a new fandom pal by this October.
Sign Ups Open!
Our Event Moderators are @wisps-writes-fic and @rori-is-writing.
If you ever have any questions or concerns please don’t hesitate to reach out to us via ask or DM. We’d love to hear from you!

The strongest theme of The Pitt for me is how nothing is how the public expects it. You think you know how unhoused people look like? No, he can be a fourth year med student doing his best. CSA survivor with a best friend who committed suicide? she's the meanest R1 who is not letting injustice slide and gets so excited about every procedure. The addict and the woman going through a miscarriage are the most competent senior residents you've ever seen. The attending saving the day at the last minute is an amputee.
Noah Wyles and his team really said "Nothing in ER departments is how it's supposed to be from the 12-hour wait times to the lack of blood, but people going through what would be anybody else's worst day are the only thing keeping the american healthcare system together"

Nominations Open!
Nominations are now open for Partners 4 Life Exchange!
What do I do?
1) First, go look at the tagset. Think about what tropes or prompts you'd like to request or write for EO. Are any of them missing from the tagset?
2) If so, click on the Nominate button in the upper right. It will bring you to a page with 20 fields you can type into.
3) Type each trope/prompt you would like into a field. Try to imitate the formatting of the other tags in the tagset, including capitalization. For instance, you'll notice that Soulmate AU-specific tropes/prompts begin with "Soulmate AU - ", and SVU-specific AUs relating to specific episodes or arcs begin with "SVU: ".
4) When you finish typing a trope/prompt, type a comma to finalize that field.
5) When you have added all the tropes/prompts you want (or have filled up your nominations), click on the Submit button at the bottom of the page.
You will be able to edit your nominated tropes/prompts until they are approved, and you will be able to add new nominations as long as there are blank fields in your nomination form. Nominations will remain open until Wednesday, June 25.
Go forth and nominate! :)

9-1-1 Excerpt from Let's Talk Television
I've decided to post this here, too, because I'm so mad about it and there are more people here who will understand than read my blog.
Speaking of losing your family in a fire and shows I don’t want to watch anymore, on 9-1-1, Athena (Angela Bassett) starts in denial by avoiding planning a funeral for Bobby (Peter Krause). She moves into bargaining when she catches a case where a jailed mom thinks she’s found her kidnapped son only her son wasn’t kidnapped, he died in a fire and there was no body because it burned up. That’s when Athena moves into anger and so do I. She shouts and cries that Bobby wasn’t supposed to leave her and I shout and cry that with this “maybe he’s not dead” plot line the show is again yelling at the audience (for being too engaged and invested with the show, which, isn’t that what you want????) and it’s offensive.
"If you think this has a happy ending, you haven't been paying attention" might be true in Game of Thrones but is gaslighting in 9-1-1.
How am I meant to keep watching this show? What is it going to be about now? Because if it’s about putting yourself back together after great loss, that was literally Bobby’s storyline and Bobby’s storyline ended in a horrific and premature death so guess what? That’s not inspiring.
I know grief. I know loss.
When I was sixteen years old I went to Universal Studios Hollywood with my father and my three brothers. By midafternoon my father had had enough but I hadn’t and I convinced him to leave me and two of my brothers at the park alone. In retrospect, this was a terrible idea, especially given that he didn’t give us any money and I didn’t have any of my own. But the attractions were all free with the price of admission, there was a shuttle back to our hotel when we were ready, and I was a sixteen-year-old girl willing to flirt my way into free ice cream and soda. Nothing bad happened to us.
My strongest memory of that day was of the Backdraft attraction. It wasn’t a ride. It was a recreation of the warehouse from the climax of the film and every half hour they set it on fire. I went three times. At the time, I don’t think I’d even seen the film. But I loved the effect. I loved the dancing flames and the rush of too hot heat on my mostly bare skin—it was August in LA and I was sixteen, I wore tiny shorts and a midriff-baring shirt.
Now, I’ve seen Backdraft at least ten times. It’s exactly the kind of terrible (affectionate) that I love. Overwrought and self-important, unrealistic and often silly, but at its heart it’s about love, loss, sacrifice and honor, and all the ways they intersect. At the very end of the film, after the scene in the warehouse recreated in Universal Hollywood of the past, there’s a funeral for the fallen firefighters, the hero and the villain. The companies march with bagpipes and much pomp and circumstance, in the rain because it’s Chicago and also a movie. There’s hundreds of firefighters and two civilians: Lieutenant McCaffrey’s widow, Helen, played by the luminous Rebecca DeMornay, and their young son. Helen is stone faced in shock until she’s handed a flag. She crumbles into tears and so do I. Every time.
youtube
That August in L.A., my mother had been dead for years already. Within five years, my father would be dead, too. I know grief. I know loss. I’ve known them since I was a child.
Bobby’s funeral is just like Stephen McCaffrey’s. There are bagpipes. The firefighters march alongside the coffin, the fire engine slow and silent, the family at the head of the parade, Bobby’s widow and her two civilian children. They ring a bell in his honor. It doesn’t rain, because it’s L.A.. Athena doesn’t break down, not like Helen, not at the funeral, but we see her grief. May (Corinne Massiah) cries and so do I.
I intermittently watch Backdraft. It’s one of those weirdly comforting movies. Weirdly because what’s comforting about danger and murder, about divorce and death and the cycle of seven year old boys losing their father, about fire described as a living thing that needs to eat? Well, what’s comforting about 9-1-1 emergencies? The people who answer the call. There’s that old oft repeated refrain that the definition of hero is someone who runs into the fire.
But it’s also comforting because Backdraft tells a complete story and that complete story is centered on Brian, not Stephen. To repeat myself from last week, Stephen dies because the story is about Brian. And this episode of 9-1-1 suggests I was right: Bobby dies because the story is about Buck (Oliver Stark). Chimney’s (heartbreaking) arc in the episode ultimately sets up more for Buck than Chimney (Kenneth Choi). Athena has the most to do in the episode, and it has nothing to do with Buck, but is also not about Athena. Because Athena isn’t Brian (the younger brother who takes up the mantle of the fallen hero), Athena is Helen (the wife left behind to suffer stoically).
It will surprise no one to learn that I think Helen is the most interesting character in the film. She probably has ten minutes of screen time tops but all ten minutes matter. She has nothing even approaching a storyline of her own but I know what it would be if the story was about her. And because I know grief, because I know loss, when Helen and I cry together, it is cathartic. It is comforting.
Athena isn’t a Helen. Athena is a hero, too. And maybe it’s unfair but it’s not comforting to watch her cry. Athena’s sorrow and rage brings me no comfort at all, it only makes me sad and angry, too. Stephen was created to die, that’s what the story is. Bobby was not. Brian’s life and Helen’s tears are comforting. Buck’s life may work out to be comforting, inspiring even. I can imagine him as Bobby’s legacy the way Brian is Stephen’s. I can see the vision. But Athena’s tears will never be anything but awful. This version of Athena’s story doesn’t work for me because it doesn’t work for her. I can’t forgive that.

I spent over two hours gathering over one hundred screencaps because when I saw Bix make that face I knew in my soul it was a shout out to Padmé and I was determined to prove it. Please click the link because who else does that?
