and if i said that mohabbot were an everlark variation then what? THEN WHAT BCS THEY ARE!
this all came to me purely bcs the fact both abbot and peeta lose their leg and they mean so much to me and i can’t be normal about them.
like we have peeta who is a sweet guy, a little flirty and ridiculous, he knows how to control a room even with his fucking kindness. and he’s so kind it tears him down and he loses himself in more way than one. losing his leg, losing his mind, having no family and left to deal with everything he has suffered often alone because he knows how to help people and not be helped.
then we have abbot, and he’s older he’s lived more. and god he’s been through the wringer too, losing his leg aswell, losing his wife who he is clearly devastated over. being passively suicidal and yet, yet he still shines and loves. everyone wants to be around him, to work with him and he helps everyone he can, patient or doctor he slides what rules he can and god does he always uplift those around him.
then we move onto katniss. who’s mother clocked out on her most important years and never really came back. katniss who had to fend for herself, to keep her sister fed and safe. who ultimately makes the biggest sacrifice for her sister and is still seen as an underdog. her love and her empathy for others drives her so much and no one really expects too much from her, despite her clear strength and desire. she pushes herself to the end of the earth.
taking us to mohan, and she’s gentle and she actively listens to everyone she can and she sits with every patient of hers. because she knows what it’s like to be misheard and under appreciated, she has been the underdog her whole career. and her motherly issues, ones she tries hard to keep floating but ultimately cannot. mohan pushes herself for everyone else and slowly loses herself, until all she can do is run, to escape and find somewhere new.
everlark, who knew eachother from a young age, stemming from pity and friendship and hatred and blooming into care and love. peeta who devotes his whole life to katniss, who sees her as this bright light he cannot imagine himself living with out. he has been through so much and yet him, the most painful would be to lose katniss. and katniss who has never even comprehended that maybe just maybe peeta loves her, that he sees her differently from everyone else. that je sees her for who she is and can fall inlove with her again and again. loving her through all her loses, and she bringing him back when it gets too hard.
mohabbot, who probably met in passing, maybe a shift handover or a joint case on a double. however it was it was slow. conversations across rooms and eye contact that’s a little too long for an attending and a resident. and nothing happening because they respect eachother. until they can’t go on without eachother. because abbot has found something happy to cling to, despite everyone else mohan is a constant in his life. and for mohan, having someone who is always proud of her, never ever second guessing her choices or seeing her in the sad ways everyone else does. she has so much potential to grow and he has so much room in his heart that is open. and then she cares for him, helping him after bad days on scenes, patching him up and it’s the first time in years he’s let someone help him. it’s never the same from there on.
so mohabbot and everlark, the unlikely soulmates. the ones who needed something constant and safe.
god that was a big yap but i am LOSING my mind over here.
