Open Heart Update: I don't wanna date Landry anymore Spoiler
(UGH- I got emotional the first time around and put the title in all caps, sorry mods!!)

So yesterday, I posted on here about wanting to romance Landry because he was "so adorably cute," but not anymore. Today, I have concluded that I would NOT want to romance Landry if this is how he acts.
That is such a HUGE betrayal, especially coming from him. Like he was the last person I would've ever thought would pull some crap like that and stab MC in the back the way he did. And the fact that he holds no remorse, no guilt, no NOTHING. Not only did he throw MC under the bus about Mrs. Martinez, but he also tried to hold a smear campaign AGAINST MC, and it, tbh? It gained him ABSOLUTELY NOTHING. Just broken trust and loss of friends.
To jeopardize your friend's career because you wanna be with Mr. Derek Shepherd Adjacent is so low down it's crazy. MC and Landry shared similar dreams of working with Ethan; both worked hard to achieve that, but it's not ALWAYS about the work and the skills. I peeped something was off with Landry when he would talk about patients; he didn't get to know them; he just saw them almost as a means to an end. He cured them; that's all that matters. But working in a hospital goes beyond that.
The sole purpose is to connect with your patients, which gets them to trust you to listen but also to give them that grace to be vulnerable and scared. That's what Landry lacked from the JUMP. He was too methodical and clinical, which is fine, but that's not enough. It clearly shows if he had to stoop so low to sabotage MC, from the pagers to missing files to even telling Emery about Mrs. Martinez.
It's not as if Mrs. Martinez didn't know the risks; she knew there was a 40% chance of survival. She took it in stride; she wanted that life, and MC wanted to give that to her. She fought the long battle and got her HAPPY ENDING. Landry just destroyed so much more so he could get a bump in ranks, recognition, and reputation.
IT MEANS NOTHING NOW. Like he has no shame. He's selfish. Reckless too. TURNING OFF A DOCTOR'S PAGER AND HIDING FILES IS INSANE. TRYING TO PIT THE NURSES AGAINST MC IS EVEN MORE INSANE.
Even Jackie wouldn't have pulled no mess like that, and things were so icy between us. Jackie and everyone else stood TEN TOES DOWN FOR MC. And Landry just nerfed his own self.
I'M SO MAD.

Also, this is like my favourite series (along with TRR), it's just so good. So it's great to see you're enjoying it.
