these will be hung up on my fridge. they are personal friends of mine.
I will claw my eyes out… WHAT DOES THIS MEAN.
[ Text: Is there anything you can tease about Season 3 for Al-Hashimi and what we'll see from her?
“I can say that things have definitely shifted, I'd say for the better. And it's interesting because Dr. Robby and Dr. Al-Hashimi are seeing each other for the first time in a long time. And yeah, there's a temperature shift, there's a tone shift, and I'm excited to explore that more as the season unfolds.”
The Pitt, Season 3, 2027, HBO Max ]
al-hashimi's breakdown in the car after she started driving and then stopped is so, so real if you know what it's like to deal with a chronic and disabling health condition, especially if it's one that you've had under control for a long time that flares up suddenly. you see her realize in real time that she was in denial before about being fine and that she isn't okay and her disability has flared up and she can't keep going about her daily life the same way she has for years up to that point. it's a loss of control that's hard to describe to people who haven't experienced something similar. the silent breakdown as she realizes this condition that she's been managing without serious issue is back in a new and unexpected way and it's disrupting her life and her routines and she doesn't know why is such a specific, frustrating, disorienting, and sometimes even humiliating feeling and I can't believe sepideh moafi conveyed all of that without saying a single word
headcanon 457: robby can sleep like a log on pennsylvania roads (those who don’t know the roads are filled with potholes). baran is shocked as to how he’s able to sleep with ease.
“no i’m not a human” but sepideh because i freaking love her
katherine talking about a scene cut at the very end of the season finale with noah that had robby's backstory and his mother ending her life when he was a kid...
random headcanon 867: baran can eat a bag of powered mini donuts in 5 minutes. robby can drink a whole jar of pickle juice in under 10 seconds.
THE PITT 2.08: 2:00 P.M.
holiday party where robby and baran go head to head in wii tennis. it’s fierce but baran smokes robby. someone ends up getting whacked in the nose (it’s whittaker).
Not my circus but I've grown quite fond of its monkeys
+ bonus:
given that sepideh mentioned that baran may be on the spectrum, i got to thinking about baran and neurodiversity in general and i really am dying to talk about acquired neurodiversity; which is a type of neurodivergence that you can get later in life.
based on the behaviors that she shows canonically, her history of (severe)seizures, medication, and ablation, the chance that she has some form of acquired neurodiversity or cognitive effects is very high. especially considering about half of epilepsy patients experience psychiatric and cognitive impairment. so i wanted to talk about some headcanons or thoughts i have based on what i know about these health issues.
she mentions having laser ablation left temporal lobe. this can cause memory problems, vision impairment or speech impairment. considering it allowed her to drive and she's able to communicate clearly in canon, i doubt she has a lot of issues with speech or vision. but i could make a case for her having memory problems. she pushes to write everything down, for charting perfectly and likes (for people) to double check things. in addition, when epilepsy happens early in childhood like with baran, risk for cognitive impairment and memory issues is even higher. given the fact that she pushed for the AI, which remembers and writes down patient details, i don't doubt she might be using it for accessibility because she has a hard time remembering patient details.
she's able to pick up on behaviors very easily, and is great at comforting people. but we also see her struggle immensely with how others perceive her and that she does put on a type of professional mask; which also aligns with what a lot of neurodivergent and disabled people do. she says people often read her as thoughtful; i could argue that with cognitive issues, she's learned to put on this professional mask and has learned the right steps to bypass these problems so that no one notices. which is also what makes it so devastating when she gets such an unexpectedly harsh reaction from robby when she does grant him the trust to know about her seizures and everything that comes with it.
while she is incredibly professional, people still doubt her. santos calls her robo-doc, robby openly distrusts her, and she is shown to occasionally have a hard time reading the room, can be a little too direct in situations where this might not be needed, and respond a little awkwardly to social cues. now, this could be because she's on the spectrum, but could very well also be cognitive effects because of the seizures and treatments she's had.
on top of that: anti seizure medications also can have effect on cognition, which can show up as neurodivergent traits even if they aren't an inherent or permanent neurodivergence because it only exists when one is taking those medications.
what i also found in one of my articles is that autism and epilepsy have a huge overlap; while she might have cognitive effects based on her seizures, treatments, and medication. the overlap between autism and epilepsy is around 10-30% based on different sources i read. which also makes it interesting to think about her having to deal with both of those things. autism and epilepsy can have overlapping presentations and are ultimately things that make your brain different; to me, baran is 10000% neurodivergent whichever way you like to look at it.
i don't really have a specific point to this, besides the fact that i find it very interesting to think and talk about, and that i hope people can also look at this side of her, or these potential explanations for her behavior, considering there has been a lot of insanely racist and ableist posts about her. she's such a complex character; we get a lot of information about her past both with msf and her seizures, and people often flatten her to something that doesn't encapsulate who she is in all her complexities and intricacies. anyway, hope you enjoyed and feel free to use this for fic writing or headcanon purposes. i'm also free to talk about this at any time bc i love medicine and baran <3

guys if you don’t like a ship just ignore it or block it from your tags. it’s that simple.
dr al hashimi i love you. you are the reason season 2 is my favorite. you’re kind, compassionate, justice driven, and yes, thoughtful; despite everything you’ve been through and saw including abroad. you were so annoying for like the first 8 episodes but you won me over with the back half of the season. you come in swinging disrupting the current dynamic of the ED to only realize that no, it’s not out of spite or just to do gloria’s bidding but out of deep care for the work you do. and when we do get a peek behind the curtain we see someone who has her fair share of medical trauma that contributes to your empathy as a physician. someone who has carried an ailment for 35 years of her life without many people knowing. if only they knew. oh dr al-hashimi there are not enough words to articulate how much i love you.
