Finished s10 of ER yesterday, loved how Carter and Kem"s baby was born healthy and all that, loved that they're happy and a family, it's what John deserves after everything, loved that NOTHING BAD HAPPENED

[dreamerdrop]

the thing i still really like about kem and carter’s relationship is that, like…

it’s two people going 0 to 100 way too fast in a relationship because they’re both caught up in the whirlwind fantasy of a happy family, and when it comes crashing down, it crashes hard— and where kem wants to move on with her life and leave the grief behind, carter wants to keep trying and salvage something between them out of the wreckage.

for kem, it’s like lingering near anything that reminds her of the grief is too painful. for carter, letting go of anything that reminds him of what could have been is where it hurts the most. i’d bet money that carter still has that unfinished nursery, covered in paint swatches, completely untouched since that day.

kem wants to forget it ever happened. carter wants to cling to the memory. polar opposite coping mechanisms in the wake of the same tragedy. doomed? yes. compelling? for me, absolutely.
