One choice the show made in revealing Robby’s character is showing us that he’s friendly with staff at all levels of the hierarchy in the hospital (except admin because this man hates the hierarchy). He and Ahmad are friendly. He knows Esme’s name, uses it, and asks how she is in both seasons. If you don’t work in a hospital you might not know that this really isn’t typical for doctors. Many will ignore the cleaning staff entirely. Few would know their names. Esme likes Robby enough that she saw him struggling during the MCI and asked if he needed anything, if he wanted her to grab him something to eat. That speaks to their relationship and to why the staff like him so much. He talks to them as equals. He doesn’t put himself on a pedestal, and that is really not common among doctors.

idk what episode but i remember near the end of s1 when that car ran into the gurneys and it shocked everyone who was outside but i remember replaying that scene because i swear that robby gripped both parker and john and sort of pulled them behind him, and i swear it was done in instinct because he was looking at that car in shock, and it just makes me so !!!! emotional because god wdym his instincts were to protect his kids wdym he was using himself to cover them wdym he was pushing them out of harm’s way wdym

sometimes i get sad about the fact that the fandom is so wrapped up in made-up drama with no basis in reality and discourse about fanon that there is almost NO conversation about the ACTUAL political parts of the pitt. so much criticism and no actual discussion of the pitt’s points about ice, about misdiagnosis of women and poc, about the fucked up insurance systems in the us, about deportations, about child abuse, about mental health, about suicide, about addiction, about federal funding cuts towards programs that benefit people of color, LIKE. you wanna talk about the pitt’s politics but instead of talking about ANY of that you wanna make shit up instead oh okay

can we all agree that pressing foreheads together is an underrated act of affection??
