Welcome! As promised, this reclist functions as a bonus material alongside our two most recently released episodes at the time of posting: Nic & Brenna's not-so-mini minisode all about the Pitt fandom, and our regular all-host ep about reclists and reccing culture in fandom. 

Below you will find a smattering of very fun multi-ship fics Host Nic discovered and enjoyed while surveying the fic landscape on AO3 for this relatively new and frankly thriving fandom. There should be something for everyone here — additionally, please leave a comment if you'd like to recommend a fic that's not on here! 

don't call it a comeback by overnights — Mohan/Santos, rated E — Samira is invited to a wine party at the Santos&Whitaker apartment and reveals a little too much about her disappointing sex life during a drinking game. Trinity is appalled and offers to help rectify that. This fic has some of the best Samira characterization (particularly in her dialogue) that I've seen in the fandom and it's so much fun.

method actor by pulses — Santos & Whitaker, Santos/Garcia, rated T — Trinity Santos character study that dives into her personal history, the things that activate her, and the desire she has to both protect others and to be protected herself. Beautiful and concise!

and yet i fight, and yet i fight by a_gathering_of_flowers — Santos & Langdon, unrated — alternate ending to S1 where Langdon's wife kicks him out and Trinity accidentally offers him her spare room. They become roommates. This fic goes deep into all the delicious (platonic!) tension between them and forces them to confront it head-on. One of my personal favorites in the whole fandom.

and i never minded being on my own by doreensladle — Santos/Garcia, rated M — Trinity gets hurt while she and Garcia are ambiguously on a date. They have to head to the ER, and Trinity learns what it's like for someone to care and stay by her side. Really sweet without tipping into saccharine territory. Made me root for these two!

the road is longer than it is hard by a_gathering_of_flowers — Langdon/Abby, Langdon & Robby, unrated — Langdon gets hit by a car on the way to work and ends up admitted to the hospital as a patient. Abby shows up and is an iconic bisexual punk queen. Loved this rendering of their marriage, and this author just understands Langdon on a fundamental level.

truth puts its shoes on by orphan_account — Mel/Langdon, rated M — Langdon goes with Mel to meet up with Mel's mom. That relationship, which was already strained, buckles under the attention of an outsider. Really beautiful character study of Mel and exploration into why her family is the way that it is.

2:00 AM by orphan_account — Mel/Langdon, rated T — Langdon needs a place to crash and Mel gives him one. This is one of the iconic Mel/Langdon fics and its popularity (11k kudos!) reflects how many people resonated with this take on their dynamic! A lot of fic for this ship is either pre-slash or slow-burn and I think that lends itself so well to their dynamic and what we see of them in the show.

the fifth element by copycat_punisher — Mel/Langdon, rated T — another pre-slash fic where the whole Pitt crew heads to karaoke and Mel and Langdon bail early. Pitch perfect voices across the board, and really goes for the "found family" vibes the show invites through its format. + incredibly fun, snappy dialogue. (This one also has an equally delightful sequel)

new dog old tricks by overnights — McKay/Javadi, rated E — Javadi sees McKay across the bar at a lesbian dive. A lot of mind games, sexy evasion, and actual sex ensue. A lot of people were really taken by this mentor/mentee relationship in s1, and if you like your yuri a little toxic and enjoy an age gap I think this fic will be for you.

A Case of the Mondays by skilift — Robby/Whitaker, rated E — Dennis Whitaker's bad luck continues in this fic where Chekhov's stab wound comes for him and he ends up in the care of the hospital, including a very attentive Dr. Robby. Classic whump --> hurt/comfort --> getting together fic.

I hope these serve as a starter pack for your Pitt!fic needs! Many are at or below 10k and highly economical with their language in a way that's always going to hit for me.
