Summary
He focuses on Robby, ignoring the slides behind him. Noting the gentle product he ran through his hair this morning, dabbed lightly on the tips of his fingers and guided through bed-fluffy strands. Appreciating the apples of his cheeks and the light flush that fades into his beard, the way his lips curl around certain words and his tongue darts out to dampen them.
Occasionally, Robby’s eyes will meet his own. Holding on for a syllable or two before fluttering off to another audience member, always engaging, always welcoming someone in.
For fifteen minutes Robby speaks, for fifteen minutes Jack holds tight on to shore.
(or: Jack spirals; Robby worships his body)

Summary
When Robby ambled in a little early for his shift, central was a hive of activity, Walsh calling back to Jack as she accompanied a gurney out of Trauma 2: "Learn from the master, soldier boy."
"When you find one, be sure to let me know, princess," he shot right back, but the note of fondness in his tone made Robby freeze. That wasn't their usual back-and-forth. That held warmth to it. An undercurrent of knowing. A joke shared between two people who'd seen each other naked. More than once.
Robby clocked Jack watching Walsh go—what the fuck—and then he went back into Trauma 2, debriefing with the team. It was the tiniest moment, nothing—
And yet Robby's whole understanding had just realigned. Jack and Walsh. What the fuck.

Summary
1 in 6 individuals engage in self-harm during their lifetime. 1 in 19 healthcare workers report recent thoughts of suicide or self-harm.
Dr. Robby is one of those individuals.
Or
Being a healthcare worker comes with an immense amount of stress, and it’s something that often doesn’t get talked about enough. It’s a quiet reality for so many people in medicine, worn down by endless shifts, grief, and the impossible expectations placed on them. While The Pitt does an incredible job portraying the intensity and emotional weight of that experience, I wanted to add my two cents on how some healthcare workers find ways, healthy or not, to cope.Bookmarked by maxsplaining
