season 3 opens. baran al-hashimi is in a coma from the car crash she was in on her way home after season 2. victoria javadi comes down alongside caleb jefferson for a psych consult. he asks her three question and she answers all of them wrong. trinity santos suspects all her patients are abuse victims and is proven wrong every single time. mel and trinity communicate perfectly without a single misunderstanding. dennis whitaker is a senior resident for some reason. perlah and princess, it's explained in one line by james ogilvie who's the new ed intern, both quit. jack abbot is in every single episode because they needed a second attending for the shift after baran fell into that pesky coma. in the last episode he changes into his streetwear. he's wearing a blue lives matter shirt. frank langdon accidentally shuts down pittsburgh's electrical grid because he was trying to turn down the lights for an autistic patient. cassie mckay's every line starts with, "my son." parker ellis spends the whole season looking directly into the camera and explaining what characters really meant when they said that thing and don't worry, they all love each other.

I’ve found myself going back and re-reading your Abby POV fic a few times now since I discovered it on Ao3, and just wanted to share how much I love everything about it. I really enjoy anything from Abby’s point of view, and your fic really is one of the most beautiful and nuanced takes I’ve seen so far. It’s incredible that you were able to take what very little we know about her from a handful of lines of dialogue, and present her as a multi-faceted woman with complicated feelings about the situation she’s in and make it easy to feel sympathy for her. It’s so devastating to have access to Abby’s inner thoughts as she reflects on how Langdon is the spouse for Mel that she didn’t get, and how she feels like an outsider looking in on their family unit (so hard to not feel for her when reading the passage at the hospital when dropping off Tanner and Penny). Also expressing that she wishes she could hate Mel, but she just can’t is my favorite part of what makes your version of Abby so realistic and just human. If you ever decide to return to that story and write any follow up sequels, I’ll be reading them in a heartbeat. Thank you so much for sharing your brilliant, lovely, and wonderful piece of writing!

Wow, oh my goodness. This is one of the loveliest messages I’ve ever received. Thank you so much for not only reading and enjoying my work, but for all the kind words. My biggest dream as a writer is for my work to connect with people, so you’ve definitely made my day! ✨

My Abby is so precious to me! It’s funny, because I honestly don’t think she is who I’d want to see in canon (Evil Abby, you will always be famous, be free girl!) But as I sought out to explore Mel and Langdon’s story through Abby, she just came to life in this way. Perhaps it’s because I have some personal experience being the piece who didn’t quite fit the puzzle, but I have loved receiving so many comments from readers celebrating how real she feels. It’s the best compliment a writer can earn, in my opinion.

I am currently halfway through writing a follow up! It’s Mel’s side of the story, which has felt like more of a challenge tonally, as she is a firmly established character and I’m not sure I am doing her justice, but my Abby is very much present and I hope I’m able to pull off as much nuance regarding their dynamic as I did in part one.

Thanks so much again!! It’s messages like these that inspire me to keep going when the work gets hard. Hope you have a lovely day, friend 🤗
