Aerys I is such an interesting dude for a non-character. Even if 90% of the discourse about him revolves around why he refused Maekar as his Hand.
Always a debate around if Aerys chose Bloodraven simply because the dude was a medieval witch and already on the council to boot, or if it was a purposeful slight for Maekarâs hand in Baelorâs death. As if the two facts were mutually exclusive in any way lmao. Like, have we considered that Aerys, the man who went from 4th in line to king in 6 months, simply wanted someone to do the job for him, but may have also hated Maekarâs guts?
Dude named Aeloraâa girl, and only his nieceâas heir before Maekar ffs đ .
But real talk. Someone was bound to hate Maekar, or at least heavily resented him, for Baelorâs death. We can spin it all we want about it being an accident, or Maekar being a (meh) good dad, but it doesnât change the fact that Baelor died because of him. Most think Rhaegel would have understood, as a fellow father; Daeron II was awfully kindâhe probably forgave Maekar too. But not everyone would have, and thatâs only realistic. Maybe Aerys never did.
Or he simply never had time.
Can you imagine being Aerys? One day, two of your brothers go to a minor lordâs tourney in the middle of nowhere, and one of them ends up dead because the other one killed him. Your stupid littlest brother, with that PR nightmare of a son he never properly walloped upside the head, caused a massive scandal whose effect basically altered the course of the whole damn continent. Maekar couldnât control any of his sons, and now Baelorâthe perfect son, the darling crown prince, the reason your life is your ownâis dead. And Aerion practically walks away scot-free (seriously? His punishment was exile to Essosi Ibiza? Get fucking real, Maekar).
Meanwhile, the heir apparent is now a kid (Valarrâs like 16-18ish?) without an heir of his own except his even younger brother. So you think youâre fine, for a time, because even if Valarr canât have kids thereâs no reason Matarys canât. Thereâs no way youâll ever be king, right?
Wrong.
Because then they both die. And then your dad dies. And now you are king. Fuck.
And all because your fuckass little brother couldnât control his shitstain of a son for one goddamn day đ.
Itâs a wonder Aerys never strangled Maekar when he had the audacity to sulk over being skipped over as Hand.
And then of course, all of Aerysâ heirs die under extremely dubious and suspicious situations. Until the only choice is a little girl (Daenora was potentially as young as four) and bloody, fucking Maekar. Who happens to have four sons.
Damn it all to hell.
I just stumbled onto your pitt x teen wolf crossover and I want to bite into it like a donut, itâs sooo good. Amazinggggg op. Your brain is beautiful
Thank you, anon đ
Hopefully, Iâll have time to update like a tree soon
Any chance of getting an update to Fata Morgana? I know a lot of the HotD fandom has died after season two, but in the words of Ser Arlan of Pennytree âA true knight always finishes a story."
Hello!
Iâm currently revising the draft for chapter 8, so itâs definitely not abandoned! But, I was definitely a little too overconfident when initially outlining the chapter, and probably shouldâve split it into at least two chapters due to its length, but thatâs far too late now đ .
Iâm predicting the chapter to be around ~15k words when published, and once I can iron out a certain pesky part into sounding right.
No promises as to when itâll be up (hopefully around Summer/S3 coming out) but it WILL be up!
https://archiveofourown.org/works/79377876/chapters/218866081
Chapter 3 of like a tree is out!
Robby âthrowing the gauntletâ per se at Al Hashimi regarding Langdonâs case is both ingenious and diabolical.
Because on one hand, it completely washes his hands off having to actually deal with Langdon. If Langdon self-reported and Robby simply didnât know, great! Al Hashimi can just talk to admin and it will get straightened out. But if it turns out he didnât, and Langdon simply followed the steps Robby laid out for him, then heâs screwed. Whether or not he ends up punished even more is irrelevant because now itâll be on Al Hashimiâs head, not Robbyâwho canât live with the guilt of not reporting Langdon, yet canât live with himself if he did.
If Al-Hashimi doesnât report Langdon, then she joins the ever growing list of people who knew and covered it up. But if she does? Then sheâll have to reckon with upturning the entire ED. Because itâs not just Langdon getting axedâRobby, Dana, and Santos are screwed too. Sure, Garcia and Whitaker and most likely the nurses all knew too, but only the former 3 knew the details. And they all collectively agreed to keep it quiet.
And this is why Langdonâs case should have been made clear, and not the wishy-washy route the show has chosen. By leaving it ambiguous, it places the weight of responsibility on Al Hashimi instead of Robby to ensure that Langdon was properly reported and is getting the help/supports he needs. If she does do her job, a lot of people will be screwed over. But if she doesnât, can Al Hashimi live with herself?
Brass balls buddy. See? you haven't lost it
THE PITT | 2.14 8:00 P.M.
Spent all this season with the Langdon vs Whitaker discourse on whoâs the new golden child/Robbyâs favorite. Only for Noah Wyle to come in at the eleventh hour with a steel chair lmao.
Yes, Whitaker is the new Langdon. But Langdonâs the new Robby đ.
I find the hate Kingdon gets disingenuous when the main argument for as to why they donât work/have little impact on each other is because âtheyâve only known each other for less than two daysâ, then???
The same can be said of Santosâ beef with Langdon, and yâall are always up his ass about his treatment of her!
If Langdon and Santos meeting, him yelling at and belittling her, is enough of a justifiable reason for the way sheâs been acting this season, then I donât see why Melâs admiration of Frank is considered to be fake or forced.
He was nice to her in s1, and made her feel more welcomed than literally anyone else. Even if we ignore s2, the fact that sheâs felt so unwelcome and lonely for the last ten months sheâs still clinging to the man she knew for less than a day, is a bigger indicator of everyone else in the Pitt than Langdon himself lmao. And now in s2, Melâs still lonely, her sister is starting to pull away, and Langdonâs back after ten months and still so nice to her. He still remembers the things she taught him or mentioned only once! He listens to her when everyone else ignores or walks away from her. He lets her be less than perfect, allows her to come to conclusions herself on the whys sheâs upset with Becca, without once making her feel bad. Langdon was so good to her, she trusts him with her sister. Do you know what that does to someone? How can yâall hold his treatment of Santos as some kind of indicator of him as a person, but refuse to acknowledge the impact he made on Mel? Make it make sense!
If you diminish the good Langdon did for Mel, then I donât see why we have to take Santos seriously. Especially now, when sheâs double backed on herself bout being upset over Langdon the person, and not the theft.
They both only knew him for a day anyway.
And this isnât about being a shipper (though I am a multishipper). You can read it as platonic or romantic and it wouldnât matter. Too many of you are too comfortable either infantilizing a canon autistic character or villainizing an addict just to justify your distaste over a ship. Well, get the fuck over it! None of your faves bothered to try with Mel for ten whole fucking months. If Langdonâs got Mel in his corner just because of this, then good! Two nerdy lonely losers clinging together is hardly new.
Yâall only have a problem with this because of your own biases against one or the other, OR because then youâd have to admit certain characters didnât develop the dynamics yâall wanted, that Kingdon managed to do despite the long absence.
pov: youâre the only one whoâs gone to therapy
Honestly, I don't know what I want from the rest of season 2 or what I want to see in season 3, but I do know what I need.
I need Frank Langdon to get actual support. I need an attending to not turn their backs on him, I need someone who is mature enough to go 'yeah, you fucked up, and that really sucks, but you can't do this without support, you can't do anything without support, so let me help" and then step up and fucking help him.
I need Frank to either transfer to a hospital where he can get a fresh start and the support he needs or I need someone to actually be a mentor and an attending for him. I get it, addictions are hard, and complicated, and no one owes him forgiveness, but to bring him back there and not give him support?
That shit will slowly kill him, even if he stays physically alive.
Funny thing is, before the season started I was so sure the Hagan plotline would come into effect in the aftermath of Langdonâs addiction and return.
Because Hagan was the physician in charge of treating the initial injury, and something must have gone terribly wrong in order for the benzos theft to occur in the first place. And given that 2x11 showed that the injury is still there and pretty bad, either Hagan severely underestimated the depth of the injury and that was what led to the events of s1, or he didnât taper Langdon off well enough that he resorted to stealing benzos to treat the withdrawal symptoms.
Either way, Langdonâs treatment and initial exposure to opiates (?) clearly happened under the eye of a PTMC doctor. So the fact that this was just conveniently never brought up is a little strange. Like, why would a simple back injury warrant medication you could get addicted to and needed to taper from, unless the injury itself was significantly worse than expected? And if it was that bad of an injury, shouldnât the hospital itself already be aware, given that Langdon wouldâve been on leave?
Except, clearly Langdon was never on leave as they canât afford his absence. And the injury itself never properly healed, either again because it was worse than they thought or it worsened because the medications he took numbed him from the pain.
Itâs just so weird that the events surrounding the start of his addiction was left so vague, especially if the doctor who treated him is also a PTMC doctor. Like, what a plotline to drop and discard immediately, yknow?
The writing for this season has been such a MESS. Itâs like the writers canât decide if they want to commit to one thing or another. And SURE, characters can be written to be unreliable narrators to their own lives with personal biases, but not to the point it affects the whole story?
Because what do you mean the diversion was left vague? If a doctor goes to rehab and was gone for ten months and an audit was done by the charge nurse, wouldnât admin and HR know at minimum? Why would Robby hide the diversion but be comfortable discussing this with Al Hashimi? Langdonâs return is clearly on Robby, and Robby alone lmao.
Why have Al Hashimi, who has shown to be deeply empathetic and exist as a good foil to Robby, end up acting the exact same way Robby did when he found out? What kind of message are you trying to sell here? Why is the realism getting shit on just for drama purposes?
For someone who cares more about Langdon being asshole than he is an addict, Santos sure has a problem with the addict part. Why mention him relapsing, if the issue was the diversion hmm? Langdon could very well relapse and it could have nothing to do with the hospital. But Santosâ problem was the theft, and now his behavior, but brings up his inevitable relapse? From someone who just stole a scalpel from the hospital? Pick a fucking narrative already, this is getting old! Itâs like they want langtos to be mirrors of each other but write it in a way the average audience canât grasp without additional context.
And another thing: why is a huge chunk of this seasonâs context given in interviews? Why do we need to read articles and watch interviews to understand the characters and their motives this season, if we want a clearer picture as to whatâs happening? We get mild allusions of Robbyâs issues with Mohan being reflective of his own failure, but only confirmed in interviews. Santos and her actress claims that she was iced out over Langdon, but clearly nobody knew about the theft. And we donât see any of that behavior on the show. Noah Wyleâs made it clear part of Robbyâs issues with Langdon is his own inability to get better/get help, which is contrasted by Langdon getting help when others havenât. But 12 episodes later and we havenât seen any of that, or even knew to look for it if the interviews hadnât come out early in the season.
So many important things are lost because The Pitt relies too much on external context to make their scenes flow well. But no show should do that because the average audience doesnât care to do those research. Something has to change in the writing room s3, because this? Is not effective storytelling.
Another thing, and this is more me being annoyed than anything else: but if the show wants me to condemn Langdon that badly for being in so much pain he stole benzos to treat a reliance he developed under the care of a doctor in the same hospital, they wouldâve actually tackled that storyline. Why is Hagan not mentioned at all? He was the doctor in charge of Langdonâs initial injury, so why isnât he mentioned at all in the aftermath? Why do we now have scenes showing that Dana lets other nurses use her prescription medication, or imply sheâs pocketing sedatives for emergencies. Santos literally took a scalpel on screen. Itâs like they want us to condemn Langdon for how his case was handled, but also double down that this issue is not a personal failing but a reflection of the current state of healthcare.
Which is great! If the show would actually commit to a fucking narrative already.
Michael Robinavitch v. The Great Divorce of 2026âa series of misfortunate events.
(also known as the time Frank Langdon got divorced, and his lawyer made it everyone elseâs problem)
*written in the tone of a crackfic narrator + outsider POV
Snippet #1
All will be fine, Dana thought to herself, one fine, sunny May morning. Six weeks out from the end of the residency year. Both R4s set to return as attendings, and three brilliant MS4sâpractically homegrown with the amount of time they spent at the Pittâbeginning as interns. Robby was finally starting to get over his negative issues regarding a certain blue-eyed resident, and back to his other set of issuesâthe kind involving praising the manâs work like he was the second coming of medicine Jesus.
Seriously. Sugar would melt at the sight of those two hopping around each other like a bunch of high schoolers.
All is well, she chuckled to herself, as the day passed by with minimal fanfare.
Poor, stupid, optimistic Dana, sheâll think to herself later that same afternoon, watching the scene unfold with growing horror.
Because the Pitt was a self-sustaining system, both its own savior and damnation. Where every decision can make or break a whole year and all the people around it, like a figurative meteor dropped from the sky.
And nothing could have prepared them for the day a certain handsome blond lawyer came to their ED, declared Langdon a free (divorced) man, and planted a passionate kiss on his lips right in the middle of the Hub.
âOh, this is not going to end well,â McKay groaned from her spot right next to Dana, eyes roaming a mile a minute.
For this little smooch happened during a lull. In Robbyâs direct line of sight. While he had a steaming cup of coffee in hand.
Yes, Montgomery Cahill was a pain in the ass to all those whose name wasnât Frank Langdon. And the ensuing crash his tomfoolery caused was one Dana Evans would remember for the rest of her very long life.
i find it really interesting that santos thinks no one knows where langdon got the drugs from. if i worked in a job where i had relatively easy access to drugs and my coworker was sent to rehab iâd probably be able to make an educated guess about where he got the drugs.
A little empathy goes a long way
Robby, Santos, and Langdon are mirror images of each other/Apple doesnât fall far from the tree etc etc core this season.
Because if Robby didnât report the theft, which again is highly unlikely, then the two people to blame for Langdonâs return are, in fact, Santos and Robby lmao. So why were they both so surprised he came back to PTMC? Because clearly, the hospital most definitely knew.
But letâs go back to actual parallels instead. Robby knew Langdon was coming back, may have even kickstarted the steps for his return, yet the first thing he did when they could talk, was to tell Langdon that he didnât want him back in âhis ERâ. And of course, made it everyoneâs problem with his treatment of Langdon. Santos has known for months of Langdonâs return, because why else would she be complaining about him to Garcia of all people if she didnât know, yet still made it everyoneâs problem because she couldnât deal with it.
Robby wants Langdonâs redemption to happen just far away from him, and Santos would rather humiliate Langdon than expect accountability etc etc etc. And somehow, the only person who has shown even a fraction of grace and humility and growth in this fuckass trio, is Langdon.
You know what I think? I think these are two individuals in desperate need of therapy, who happen to either victimize themselves due to past trauma, or hurt other people because they themselves are hurt and never got past it. Robby is horrific boss this season, mismanages his own department, and ruined the self-esteem of both his senior residents. Santos seems to be running around thinking sheâs some harbinger of her own personal justiceâa trait that isnât new, btw, because letâs not forget she threatened to kill a patient last season.
Neither of them can seem to accept that Langdon has grown, and it has nothing to do with Langdon himself. This is all them.
This is Santos seeing Robbyâs reaction to Langdonâs return, and thinking she had the right to emulate borderline workplace harassment. This is Santos upset that someone she vehemently dislikes has actually put in the effort to improve when she herself is still drowning is self-loathing. This is Santos realizing that the boogeyman she created out of Langdon was just thatâa boogeyman she made up because she couldnât live with the fact that peopleâs dislike of her stemmed from herself, and not someone elseâs initial distaste. Langdon didnât make her a pariah; Santos did it to herself, and continues doing it to herself.
This is Robby drowning in his own trauma, trapped in a workplace that is both safe space and literal mental prison. This is Robby being angry at Langdon for falling off the pedestal, and hating himself for placing said resident on the pedestal on the first place. This is Robby realizing that Langdon may have failed him, but Robby failed Langdon too when he didnât take the initial injury seriously, when he didnât notice his favorite resident was in active withdrawal right in front of him. And this is Robby, not knowing how to live with all that warring inside him, refusing to get help, and seeing the root of that emotional cocktail right in front of him, potentially thriving. He loves and hates that Langdon is a mirror of him; the version of Robby that got help when he needed it.
And yes! I will give Langdon grace here, because in this trio of assholery, heâs the only one whoâs even bothered to get better. Heâs actively getting help, because he mightâve been pushed into getting it, but Langdonâs the one who continuously got help for his own sake. He did that, not anyone else.
This show will never go where anti Langdons/anti addicts believe it will go. Heâs not going to lose his license and get thrown into prison just to satiate yâallâs own ego. And if he is forced to reveal to the whole ED what happened, despite him already willingly admitting the crime to the person he stole from, it will not end the way you think it will. If Langdon wishes to reveal what he did, itâll be on his own terms and not for Santosâ gratification.
And literally anyone who thinks what she said was at all appropriate should go and block me right now, because that level of unprofessionalism and ridiculousness is not welcomed here.
I donât care if Santos dislikes him. I donât care if these two spend the rest of their time at the Pitt at each otherâs throat. But I do care that some of you genuinely believe that Langdon should lambaste himself just to satiate Santosâ ego and hurt feelings. This is not about her; it was never about her. What happened to her in S1 was terrible and should never happen again. But this? Enough is enough, and anyone who thinks what she said was justified should look up workplace harassment and retaliation and hostile work environment, because I can guarantee those charges will be on her head if this comes out.
Two wrongs will never make a right. Not here, not anywhere in real life. And if you want a wrong to happen, at least have the decency to admit it, instead of hiding behind your own self-assured morality.
