Langdon is allowed to be upset that his wife threatened to divorce. He doesn’t have to take and be okay about everything that comes his way because of his disease. Anyone who wants to say otherwise can fuck off. Y’all need a major lesson in empathy.

Saving Water
summary: frank langdon comes home after a long shift and finds you in the shower. needing one himself, he thinks, why not save water?
tags & cw: 18+ minors GOODBYE, fem afab reader, frank langdon ABSOLUTELY calls you baby, established relationship, reader is depicted washing semi-long hair but texture is not specified, slight praise kink, shower sex, fingering, frank being astronomically down bad, domesticity(?), unprotected p in v (in the wise words of dr. langdon himself, wrap it before you tap it!!!)
wc: 4.1k (uhhh I didn't realize how much this one got away from me LMAO)
a/n: so…i’m about the furthest thing from a medical professional so i took it upon myself to steer as far away from medical terminology as possible. That being said, any fics i write for langdon will almost certainly involve a reader who is not in the medical field, so…do with that what you will!
be sure to check out my dr langdon masterlist!
srry baby, i’ll be a little late tonight. Just finishing up charting. Want me to pick up anything on the way home? Love you
Since being hired on as an attending, Frank was usually one of the last to leave the day shifts, so late nights were not at all uncommon. It sucked, especially on the weekends, but it wasn’t as if the rent—or his med school debt—would pay itself. Quite honestly, sometimes you worried that he was stretching himself thin; although Frank thrived in the chaos of the ER, it could still be a lot for one person—especially one with so much more responsibility, now—to handle alone. Plus, physician burnout was a very real thing.
And, selfishly, you missed him.
No worries. I made gumbo tonight, should still be warm when you get home. Drive save xx
Hi! It’s the Abby Defender anon here to defend her (and their marriage) once again!
In response to the anon who sees negative connotations in their relationship, I’m here to offer my perspective as someone who hasn’t (and still hasn’t) seen it that way at all.
We meet Langdon, energetic, who’s married with 2 young kids and has impulsively gotten their family a dog. The women in his workplace who he has a nice rapport with are all like “what the hell?” Because, yeah, why would randomly give your wife more to do?
He insists, “Abby loves dogs!” In season 2, it’s revealed they kept the dog. Maybe, just maybe, he knows his wife.
They don’t “bicker” in the phone call, again, we’ve NEVER met Abby. Not even her voice. We don’t know what was said or how. I never got a negative vibe from this scene. He called his wife to talk to his 4 year old in the middle of the day. The “can you just put him on the phone?” read to me more as urgency. He doesn’t have time to answer the whats and whys, so he’s snappy. And she gives him the phone, no fight.
So in season 2, he opens up to Dana. No one from work has reached out. He’s been alone with his thoughts for 10 months. I brought up the dog thing because we saw him that first season constantly bouncing off of people, not just for their opinions on his outside life, but in general. These are people has he spent 12 hours days with in a complex field for 4 years. That’s not something his wife, or family, or non doctor friends can exactly replicate. How could they? They couldn’t possibly understand. (1/2)
As for the marriage symbolism. The wedding anniversary man, or even Louie, I’ve seen people say “well he didn’t bring up his wife, this is proof of separation/trouble!” Louie didn’t ask about his wife. And as for the anniversary guy, unless the Langdons are also in a milestone year (and even that’s pushing it), that’s not really how professional conversation works. Why would he randomly say “oh! I’ve been married for X amount of years!” He’s the doctor here. And when the ring was cut off, he was the one to quickly assure the man the ring could be repaired. When he says divorce, that IS the depiction of loss. That is also a very big deal to him. If it was truly just about his kids, why bring her up, right? Apparently she wasn’t important because she wasn’t brought up to Louie or the boner patient, right? But she is important to him. That’s why he told Dana, someone he trusts. And that’s why he told Santos, because he needed her to understand how serious the consequences were. She is a part of that too, not JUST the kids. Sorry for going on so long, but I’m just a lurker with no platform who feels like these takes aren’t really fair because people want him to be divorced for one reason or another. Thanks for engaging with me Es! <3 (2/2)
Thank you for talking to me. :)
And I'm, again, sorry that it took me so long to respond. Life, y'kno..
Anyway, re: dog and not understanding that a woman raising two little kids and taking care of the house and whatnot, is work--I said it before, and I'll say it again: been there, done that. Exactly that. It's not the end of marriage.
The phonecall? I replied to another ask here. As you can see, my thoughts were very similar to yours. *high!five*
As for all Langdon's reactions to the mentions of wives, marriages and questions about family, let me take us back to episode 3, where he quoted that poem about fatherhood, and then the father of the little kid with beads in his nose said: "I'd add support your woman and pack good snacks." So many shippers people were, like, 'Oh, Langdon didn't mention his wife. He's so divorced.'
But, this is his face:
I don't see sadness here, regret, guilt. It's a small, fond smile. A little wistful, maybe, what fits with my headcanon that yes, Abby stayed, but Frank is a little surprised that she did, because he's not sure he deserves it. It is complicated. But they are together.
And absolutely, no, he would not bring up his personal life to the patients, it's not professional and this is not Gray's Anatomy.
So...how do we feel knowing Abby and Frank are still married? In my mind, it wasn't really a threat. It was more of a decision. Like, "you either go to rehab or we get a divorce". Like that. Frank didn't want to lose his Abby or his kids so he picked rehab. In his mind, he would always pick rehab if it meant getting to hold onto his Abby. Might make that into a story for the fic low-key.

Montgomery Adamson in Heaven, seeing Robby teaching Ho'oponopono to people, sending Langdon to rehab, all to forget that forgiveness was an important component in both cases
it’s hard being one of the only Frank Langdon Healthy Marriage warriors out on this battlefield
Give it time. THE PITT • 2x06, "12:00 P.M."
I often think about when Langdon told Robby, "...I hurt my back. I told you that. You teased me about it..."
He was in pain and needed help but Robby wasn't there for him. He was seeing Robby as his best friend, his mentor. He was worshiping him and still does. He was always desperate to get praise from Robby and still is. And he told him that from the beginning he needed help.

Soup Medicine ༘⋆
summary: frank's had a bad shift, you know just what to do genre: fluff warnings/content: wife reader, established relationship, mentions of rehab, takes place during s2 of the pitt word count: 770 a/n: yearning for dr. langdon so much lately.. i'm proud of this one! hope you enjoy:)
you and frank’s shared apartment currently smelt of herbs, warmth, and broth
frank had already managed to complain multiple times through text today
“im over it and it hasn't even been an hour”
“robby is still avoiding me”
“maybe we should move”
your heart ached each time your phone dinged, with a more upsetting message waiting to be read from your husband.
It has been around two weeks since he came back to the pitt from rehab and things are still not all in place. you stayed by his side of course, managing visitations, and a lonely home.
waking up next to langdon has been a blessing, but hearing about how work has been for him is not.
you knew and you both talked about the possibilities, the uncomfortableness. but you tried to reassure him that he worked through things for a reason, that he's meant to help people, especially at the pitt.
he texted you around 10 minutes ago saying he was on the way home, so you knew you could expect him in about 5 minutes to walk through the door.
you had been preparing of course.
two hours ago, you started cleaning a chicken. it had been in the fridge from last week’s grocery trip and you figured it was the perfect time to use it.
during your 3rd date with your husband, before you had a ring on your finger, you learned his favorite soup was chicken soup.
“my mom would make it for me when I was feeling down” he chuckled, looking at the plate of food instead of your gaze. he was slightly embarrassed, but he still wanted to be vulnerable with you.
this was the date when you knew you were falling for him.
you reached out and rubbed his knuckles, before clutching onto his hand. “That's sweet. ill make note of that”
his head peered up at your gentle touch, blue eyes finding yours. despite the moment being tender, he smirked “why? are you planning to be my wife or something?”
you smiled then, “don't get ahead of yourself langdon, you should be so lucky if I was”
he laughed and squeezed onto your hand gently. it was as if he knew then too, that he wasn't gonna ever let go from this day forward.
the doorknob began to fidget as you plated the soup on the dinner table. you lit some candles, they were lavender scented to relieve stress. frank had teased you about it when you picked them out, but deep down, he found himself thankful.
“honey im- hey”
you were greeted with frank’s charming smile, as you slowly walked towards him, cupping his face. he wasted no time in gently pecking your lips, melting into you. “hey frankie” you murmur
his smile only grows, “god I missed you”
you back away and turn to the table, decorated with the candles and a centerpiece of roses. frank changes the flowers every week for you, a tradition he brought to your marriage.
“missed you too. I made your favorite”
he puts down his hospital bag by the coat rack and walks over to the table. his mouth doesn't close once. “baby…”
“I know you had a shitty day. I also know I can't fix how everyone’s treating you, or that im not rob-“
the sound coming out of your mouth stops as frank places his lips on yours. his arms gently squeezing your waist closer to his, his smile lines being present is the last thing you notice before closing your eyes.
“you dont need to say anything else. thank you. I don't know what I'd do without you.” even though it was just you two in the apartment, he said it only loud enough for you to hear.
you chuckle, “probably lose your mind even more. kidding” you quickly add the last part even though you probably don't need to. you want frank to always be reassured about how you view him. even if banter is one of the major parts of your marriage.
he hums “you’re probably right” he kisses your forehead before sitting down in front of the ceramic bowl of soup.
“not gonna get into something more comfortable?” you wonder
he shakes his head, “the soup can't wait”
you smile at your husband endearingly, before joining him at the table.
“its perfect” he says after a spoonful “you’re perfect”
frank knows he has to hold his breath when he clocks in, but he also knows that when he clocks out, he has a way of breathing to come home to. and that always makes everything worth it.
I don't want Langdon to be divorced because I don't really gaf about Kingdon but more importantly I don't think addicts need to lose everything good in their lives in order for them to "redeem" themselves
okay so i'm not misreading this thank goodness

Following my thoughts from here
I don't believe that Langdon is an intentional born again Christian. The issue itself is Addiction Recovery programs can be entirely rebranded Christian ideology (with AA being the most notable). Its foundation are Christian practices.
Noah, a Jewish man, who wrote this episode is aware of this. Seeing as Langdon's story parallels Carter's, and he is an LA actor; he is familiar to some level of these recovery programs.
It is not a coincidence that he intentionally has Langdon quotting a Christian poet (and it was beautiful!) in the same episode they focused on a massive tragedy against the Jewish community.
@vole-mon-amour, I wanted to expand my thoughts!
It IS likely that Langdon is some form of Christian already at birth (just by likelihood of white american), and if he is attending recovery through AA meetings, he is having those ideals reinforced (even if he himself does not identify as religious).
I don't think Langdon is going around claiming to be Christian. But he IS "culture christian" and he's having those ideals reinforced. So to an individual like Robby who doesn't subscribe to those heavily Christian tennants, there is sense of understanding clashes.
ie. if he feels as though Langdon is just doing it cause AA/Christianity says to. is it actually an apology? how sincere is that if its mandated?. Langdon on his end IS doing it meaningfully, what happens when the person doesn't accept?
Does it excuse Robby's brush off? no. Does it make it messier? yes.
On a writing level, for me this means that Noah is aware of the Christian predatory nature of these programs. And that he's aware that for individuals where Christianity is the baseline, it makes sense that it is easier to accept those rebranded ideals internally.
The quote Noah puts for Langdon to recite, is also a meta example of how something is meaningful in multiple ways but also steeped in religion (which i would argue both mimics Langdon in recovery but also Noah himself and Judaism - seperating the creator from the creation fundamentally is hard work and near impossible).
The other post i made was mostly pointing out that while Langdon might not be actually adhering to Christianity he is filling a narrative role as foil to Robby in this sense (Christian/Jewish). Likely this will be based around forgiveness later on and what that looks like. How do both cultures seek and give forgiveness?
I'm not as well versed about Judaism as i would like to be. I'm still learning, but this was my understanding as the situation is as of E3!
they're besties, your honor

#bros THE PITT • 2x03, "9:00 A.M."
Another great bit from Sepideh interview is her attitude toward Langdon which I think we will see play out over the season cause they only formally met in this recent episode. Also this make the comment she says in the trailer to Robby about what does he need to have more empathy make sense . From Supriya and Taylor saying thier characters love Dr Hashimi and might favor her gentleness over Robby to now maybe even a bond with Langdon . The evil witch sent here by Gloria to do a hostile takeover of the Pitt allegations are fallen flat .
