I’ve been meaning to make this for everyone asking for weeks and I finally found the time to do it. Thank you everyone who loved this cover, it is truly overwhelming the positive response this has gotten. For all of you that wanted a printable book cover this is for you!

Top = dimensions for a hard cover.

Bottom = dimensions for a soft cover.

And, because I am worried about Tumblr messing with the quality I’ve officially set up a Google drive to share these as PDFs along with the high quality tiffs for anyone that wants to do a custom hardcover (Please see this amazing bookbinding job by @autumn--stars!!!)

Additional thanks to @dathen who let me quote this post for the back panel of this cover~

Thank you again everyone and enjoy!

The crazy thing about the Pitt is that there are like five Chekhov’s guns and they are shooting different mirrors and bouncing off them all around that damn hospital and they all are going to hit Robby in the head.

Comparing and contrasting Robby's interactions with Samira vs Whitaker as he spirals further and further downward and out of control is just so much more interesting to me when you take the genders of everyone involved out of it for a second. And I'm not saying that criticisms of Robby as someone with misogynistic biases are completely unfounded or unworthy of discussion, but there is also just so much more there.

It is abundantly clear that Robby sees Samira as a younger, less broken reflection of himself, as has been discussed in great length by people who are far more articulate than I will ever be. But I also see so many people arguing that Robby sees Whitaker through the same lens, so why isn't he treated the same way? And I actually so vehemently disagree with that interpretation, at least in so far as this season goes. I don't think Robby particularly sees himself in Whitaker, I think he feels seen by Whitaker, in more ways than one, and that is the crux of where Robby's attitude towards them differs.

The more Robby's self-loathing manifests, the more critical he becomes of Samira, and seemingly the tighter he attempts to draw Whitaker into his life. Abbot compliments Al Hashimi and says they'll be fine without him, accidentally hitting on Robby's biggest insecurity, and Robby immediately goes to offer Whitaker his house. Samira has a panic attack, so identical to the one Robby still hates himself for, and Robby introduces Whitaker to his motorcycle mentor and tells him how much he trusts him. And I don't see either of these actions as really about Whitaker personally or professionally, but rather what he represents to Robby. Someone who saw him at his weakest moment, guarded his most shameful secret, and still looks up to him as a respected teacher anyway; Someone who makes Robby feel like he isn't the catastrophic failure he views himself as.

Robby is suicidal. Perhaps at the start of the shift it was a more passive ideation, but as the hours drag on he's becoming becoming firmer and firmer in his convictions. And in this, keeping Whitaker close provides him both comfort in feeling seen in his final moments and the belief that he's tying up all his loose ends, that Whitaker will remain quiet and loyal inside the box he's tightly enclosing around himself--something that is inevitably going to blow up in both of their faces.

This post reminded me of something I've been thinking about regarding Robby's relationships with residents that often seems to be missing. Professional mentorship is a mutual relationship and a mutual choice. Mentorship is not parenting. It is not teaching a child or a teenager in school. A mentor can offer their guidance but a mentee isn't a passive object onto which learning opportunities are enforced, they are an active participant in their learning. Whitaker has actively chosen to adopt what Robby has been teaching everyone, to the degree that at times borders on comical. That has to feel very validating and rewarding for Robby. Whitaker actively chose to be taught by Robby beyond just the skills and he also chose to prove himself trustworthy by keeping his secret and preserving his dignity after Robby's panic attack.

If we look back at season 1, yes, Langdon was Robby's favorite resident but beyond that Langdon wanted to be Robby's friend, he clearly looked up to him in a way that Collins or McKay didn't. Maybe that's me projecting because I always preferred women to be my managers and mentors, I accept criticism from women in a much more productive way and all that, but it didn't look like they were interested in a closer mentorship with Robby. Collins had a personal history with him that would unavoidably affect their work, McKay didn't seem that interested maybe because of how she sees Robby or due to her history with men overall. Also it's important that they are both older and clearly had a life outside of the undergrad->medschool->residency pipeline. Obviously they are still learning but they are not waiting for a man to come and mold their personality. Then there's Robby's relationship with Mohan and to me season 1 explicitly showed that each and every time he berates her it's for things he does himself. Yes, we can talk about the hypocrisy it but more importantly, professionally it means that he can't successfully mentor her in those areas, as they have the same "pain points". If Robby was in a better headspace he could deal with that professionally but being at the end of his rope as he is, he just spirals.

This season Robby is clearly willing to support Victoria when her mother comes to visit at the beginning of the season, he supports Mel who clearly wants his validation, he has build a relationship with Trinity where she feels she can trust him (and I don't think she trusts men easily). He tolerates Garcia well enough while she starts their day by calling him "Rabbit-bitch". The again all falls apart with Mohan because whatever triggers her is also triggering to him.

Sorry, this got rambly but the main thing I want to say is that while we discuss Robby's numerous faults, let's not default to the easy labels and even more importantly, let's not remove women's agency while we are talking about them.

i am a slut for "thing that was a silly joke in the beginning of the story is later recontextualized as actually kind of fucked up" . especially when its a longrunning series and you can tell its a product of the author re-assessing the writing of their younger self. chefs kiss.

Op casually leaving out that the entire thing has been organized by Lindana’s children

🔁lovefandël 🎸follow

HUH?

🔁rightintomyheart💗🎼follow

Just to clarify you mean like. THE Lindana. As in the pop star from the 80s.

🔁wannahavefunfunfun👩‍🎤🎼follow

I do! Bobbi (who has been running a hair salon since the band’s breakup) updated the website saying he’ll be out for a reunion concert. And that he was convinced after speaking with two kids—Phineas and Ferb Flynn-Fletcher, who want them to come back to perform at their mother, Linda’s anniversary.

Ohhh so nepotism 🙄

🔁Danny 🎸✌️follow

No, not nepotism. You guys don’t get to hate on these kids, they’re super cool. They came into my shop & asked me to perform for their parents. They made no mention of their mom being Lindana. We’re literally prepping for the concert right now and I just learned this from tumblr. Had to fact check it with Bobbi. Point is, at no point did they try to leverage their mom’s fame. They genuinely just wanted to do something sweet for their parents. I doubt they even thought to try and use their mother’s status. They simply explained how passionate their parents were about the band.
