    Summary

    Carol finds it in the third week of living alone with an unhived Zosia: a New York Times article, “To Fall In Love With Anyone, Do This.” An intimacy experiment involving thirty-six increasingly personal questions and, at the end of it, four uninterrupted minutes of eye contact, which sounds fake and humiliating and somehow still not bad enough to stop her.

    Carol, obviously, prints it out.

    Summary

    Trinity knows it’s inevitable. She understand that this–this thing–can only coil so tightly before it snaps. And guess who’s ass is in the trap?

    ‘Santos. A word.’

    Not a question. Not even a suggestion, really. An order veiled as something softer, something less loaded. Garcia doesn’t even look at her; pert buns swaying slightly as she and her perfect posture lead Trinity to the stairwell. How is she still standing like that–after, what, nine hours? Trinity aches. She has blisters from her shitty tennis shoes that Huckleberry insisted she buy–her ratty old gym shoes were fine, by the way–and an omnipresent thudding behind her eyes and the inability to keep her shoulders rolled anywhere but forward. Garcia spins on her heel; her shoes are pristine, white and stitched with fine thread. Trinity wants to die, just a little.

    ‘You’ve been avoiding me.’

    There it is. Trap, meet ass. She’s been told she has a nice one, so hopefully that counts for something.

    Summary

    "Carol knows in her heart that she shouldn’t pour herself another drink. The glass is sticky enough to remind her that she’s spilled the amber liquid over her own hands at least three times, and she’s licked them clean as if wasting a single drop of her favourite poison were a crime. If anyone could see her now, they would deem her pathetic, disgusting, hopeless. The fact that she can still feel the stinging shame of knowing that she’s exactly all those things makes her realize that she’s not drunk enough."
    [...]
    “You’re Carol, right? I’m Zosia. I hear you’ve had quite a day.”
    Carol scoffs, trying to conceal the cracks in her voice.
    “And it’s not even noon yet.”

     

    or

    the one where Carol struggles through loss, grief, addiction and trauma, doesn't ask for help, but gets it anyways.

    Summary

    If you asked Trinity Santos what the worst part of her first shift in The Pitt was, she would lie and say the mass casualty incident. This was the fair and socially acceptable answer and the one people actually wanted to hear about when they asked. Truthfully, the mass casualty incident didn't even break the top three on the list of worst things about the shift. Third was the scalpel incident. Second was correctly deducing her senior was stealing drugs. First would have to be Yolanda Garcia calling her “trouble."


    It's Trinity's first rotation of intern year outside of the ED. Of course, it had to be trauma surgery, and Garcia just had to be her senior resident.

    Summary

    Vaggie is an exorcist, one of the "best" in fact. Charlie is the princess of hell who struggles to help her people. One day after the extermination she stumbles upon the bloody mess of one of the angels responsible for the death of countless sinners.

    My take on how the two met and the beginning of their story. Follows some parts of the show but ultimately takes on a path of its own.

    I do include songs that pertains to the storyline, skip over it or don't, this is just a heads up if you're into that or not.
