I made another one:

And then:

I never got the Ethan diamond scene with the execs in OH1.5 but I’ve seen screenshots and can’t help wondering what MC’s friends were doing in the meantime…

MC: I’ll get this round

*2 hours later*

Elijah: how long is that damn line?

LMAO! I've thought about that too. MC saw their chance to spend time with their crush and took it. The roomies have to respect the game 😎

But in my universe, Lilac texts them to let them know she's fine and she'll be right back lol. I think I added it to my old Pictagram series 😂

Did Ethan and your MC view the eclipse?

Meep! Sorry, I'm a day late lol

Hell yeah! Ethan was "meh" about it. Lilac, on the other hand, was so excited

(“Babe, there won't be another solar eclipse in the U.S. until 2044! I'll be 50 and you'll be pushing 100. It's a big deal.”)

They were both at work so they stole a moment to go up to the Edenbrook rooftop and watch it with eclipse glasses.

Literally this:

#And yes yes yes that cliché thing where she's looking up at the sky with her dorky glasses #And she's MESMERIZED but Ethan watches her #Mesmerized by her ❤️ #ethan ramsey #open heart #ethan x mc #lilac allende #ethan x lilac

In your pairings who has the biggest "body count"? Does the person with a lower BC get mad about that?

Love, love, love this!

Ethan x Lilac: Highest body count is Ethan. Both because he's older and also because he did some ONS. Just like with his initial opinion about love, he had a similar scientific and clinical view on sex. Lilac's reaction to this?

Laurel x Tobias: Tobias. No explanation needed. Also, Laurel didn't date much as she was a young single mom. Laurel gets a little jealous (not seriously) and even teases Tobias about it. His response is always:

(She's the quality).

So true! The mix of all three screams MC

COMPETITOR

You view everyone and everything as a threat. You care more about what others think about you than what you think about yourself. I think you're already letting the competition get to you.

HEALER

You're too selfless. You care more about your patients than about yourself. One day, that's going to get you in trouble.

FRIEND

You care most about your relationships. You rely on a support network because you know you'd drown here on your own. But part of you worries, deep down, that one day you'll only have yourself to count on.

[jamespotterthefirst]

I always pick the truth because of my personal moral code. Also, because of the moral code I've chosen for my MC. Not to mention her profesional ethics as a doctor.

But I also pick it because it beautifully follows the overarching theme of the chapter "Patient X" : the truth will always shine through.

As this anon put it a while ago:

Okay, you knew I was going to ask:

He gives me a mix of all three, but I've gotten HEALER the most. I get so offended when he says the competitor one.

1.7!!

Pretty much the whole coffee shop scene, but more specifically this:

MC ate with "I know it well"

It's like telling Ethan: "I've seen it on all my lovers and I'll see it on you."

This is a thread of things that count as a body for Ethan x MC in book 1:

Private lessons variant (1.1)

The whole vending machine scene (1.2)

Ethan dovouring MC with his eyes at the bar (1.2)

MC asking Dolores if Ethan has always been that handsome variant (1.4)

"... most promising young doctors. The next generation of medicine..."/ "colossal pain in the ass" (1.5)

I'll be back with more as I replay

Name three interns then 🙄

That's what I thought. You mostly just observe MC.

There was also a time Open Heart 1, Ride or Die, and The Elementalist all released on the same day. Fridays were the best 😭

can you believe there was a point in time when we had open heart, blades of light and shadow, and distant shores all releasing at once? we used to be a proper country

#And pb would trend without fail at number 1

I haven't been back to this corner of Tumblr in a while but your replay of Oph is making me want to download Choices again 🥹

OMG HI

Please do it, bestie! 🧡

#Missed you!

[jamespotterthefirst]

You insert the needle gently and inject the substance.

Ethan: Well done. Barely felt a thing.

MC: I did go to medical school, you know.

"Barely felt a thing."

He felt a lot of things 🙄 Stop playing, Doctor.

1.6 edition

MC inviting Ethan to the housewarming party and Ethan thinking about it for a hot second

MC feeling Ethan's arm to inject him and this man being so consumed with lust that he has to crack a joke because he simply cannot handle the gorgeous intern touching him

Good points! I picture about the same, just sprinkle some conversations about where they grew up and family (Ethan, of course, keeps this short on his part and Lilac notices he is guarded on that topic)

Ethan and MC just talking for long moments of time is the height of romance. Soulmate activities.
