my #unfortunate trait is that i like how mel/langdon has an undercurrent of toxicity to them 😔
#like i do think he likes her and she likes him#but it is all smoke and mirrors on his part as a way to control#like the way shes someone new and he can manipulate her view of who he is#knowing that out of all the newbies shes the most likely to take him at face value and not pry further#he doesnt try and hide that with santos#he's nice to whitaker and javadi but doesnt try too hard to have a Persona (probably bc theyre students and likely not sticking around)#but mel.....#i also think he uses her as a way to 'prove' that hes fine. that he can be a good teacher. even though shes fully competent without him#like he stops being abrasive when she thinks he and garcia are fighting.#notices she takes things as they are? doesnt want her to see him as an aggressive asshole?#its like shes a new project that he Cannot fuck up or everyone will know#but i think its when they have the autistic patient that he does actually like her#and that she doesnt need him as much as he wants her to need him#but even then theres a selfishness to it that HES benefitting from her competency#'least problematic intern' (or w/e) = one whos not going to cause ME problems not problems in general#and i love the concept that mel unfortunately falls for his mask (because why wouldnt she)#and its why i want them to be lowkey angsty next season bc now she doesnt trust him !!#and he needs to earn that back#im sorry i dont live in delulu land just yet where everything is happy go lucky between them i like the complicated nature of them
