I put trauma center and atlus tags together bc somehow if I just use the trauma center tag it gives me anything but the game kasdjhfk

You hear a tc track when watching a medical drama in persona 5, which mean that in that universe, every TC char you know has an actor just vibing in it.

I keep rewatching trauma team playthroughs and I just realized that the stories do draw a lot of paralels with their own chars or maybe it's just me filling the gaps.

Like I just word vomitted about tomoe and maria (my ship my ship) but Hank and Gabriel do have some stuff going, you just have two old friends one is a burly serious looking fella and the other you got an old man cracking all sorts of jokes when he's around then you quickly learn that the burly serious dude is a soft hearted man that wants to remain optimistic that life is not all bad and the one cracking jokes has gone stoic for whatever stuff he's gone through and how tired he gets of his own charade towards the end of his arc.

As for CR-S01 and Naomi, one being a new character to the series and the other being a recurring one, both of them have a loaded past while facing an uncertain future, and also learning to believe that in the end of everything, they're not monsters despite the circumstances.

OK NO FUCK IT, I'M GOING OFF

I love Maria's and Tomoe's stories in TT or at least I love them together as they tell the story of two different people from two different circumstances struggling with two different things.

LET ME EXPLAIN

First let's talk about Maria Torres, a quick thinking and efficient paramedic. We quickly learn that she used to live in an orphanage. It's never mentioned since when but for me I like to imagine she's been there her whole life, ever since she could recall she was always playing inside the orphanage with other kids. As she watched both kids and volunteers come and go she probably had to fend for herself and be self sufficient. No mom and dad to help her, she had to be her own parent if she wanted to go forward.

She's probably had a fascination with heroes even before the incident with the fire. I think saving Rosalia just cemented her interest even further. Heroes are seen as reliable, the kind that people go to when there's trouble, they could shoulder the world's burdens without much trouble. And Maria wanted to be all that, if she could be like a hero then she'd be golden because you wouldn't have to ask for help when you become the help you've always needed.

Or at least that's what she thought.

Fast forward to the events happened throughout the game, Maria learns the harsh truth that her idea of a hero doesn't exist. You can see her rushing to the scene, pushing people aside, do all sorts of reckless things (RIDING A BIKE WITHOUT A HELMET COUGH COUGH) to save the day but instead you see her fighting with her peers, disregarding hierarchy and coordination and eventually breaking under pressure as she finally trips with her own feet while trying to transport a patient.

And it hurt her. It really did. Seeing someone taking over in her stead was a blow to her pride. In that night, she felt like a failure to everyone, to her peers, to her patients and to herself above all. What kind of hero she was? What kind of hero screws up like that? Tomoe has once expressed concern of her for offering to help after a long shift to which Maria brushed off as nothing. Even Gabriel was offering something when she looked a bit distracted. In her selfish pursuit to become a hero, Maria was probably known to neglect her own needs most of the time.

When she witnesses another accident happen right in front of her eyes, she was once again stuck in a situation where she knew she couldn't pull it through on her own. She grows desperate, she does everything she could on each patient and eventually...she finally calls for help.

And to her surprise, everyone arrives to help her. The same people she pushed aside time and time again, rushing to her side because that's what people do: They help each other. And just as Esha's words reached her ears, Maria Torres finally learned...

That asking for help is not a sign of weakness or failure.

That it's OK to rely on others when her hands are getting full. That she shouldn't be alone in all this.

Granted, there's still a ways to go but with the lessons she's learned in her heart, perhaps someday she will become the adult she always needed in her youth.

Basically, Maria's whole side is her learning to rely on help. As for Tomoe's it's quite the opposite.

Tomoe Tachibana, born in a golden cradle, she was just a baby but the pressuring expectations of her family were already all over her and her childhood memories were of her trying to meet those expectations everyday. Stifling traditions, strict rules, for Tomoe there was rarely a time where she could just be a kid and forget about her duties as the heiress of the Tachibana clan. Her mother was probably of the few people in her life that treated her with kindness so losing her was like losing whatever kindness was left in the world and without her support, it only made things tense with her father.

Tomoe was a brilliant student, top of her class, perhaps even president of the student council as well as representing the archery club of her school. To no one's surprise, her accomplishments would get more impressive as she went to medschool and specialized in endoscopy at such a young age (I ASSUME???)

Yet for Tomoe, this all felt like a farce.

For someone like Tomoe, she had everything she needed. A nice house, probably attending the most pretigious schools, tutored by the best teachers one could ever ask for, food and heat was never scarce and despite the protests of the elders and her father, she was able to pursue her studies to become a doctor.

And it was all thanks to her Tachibana name. It felt like nothing was earned by her own merit. Was she really carving her own path if she was still relying on her clan to get anything? Was she really free from her golden cage when she's obliged to return home to talk about the future of the clan?

She felt powerless. As if she didn't have control of her life. A marionette for everyone to use, to move and talk in her stead while she couldn't do much but watch. Throughout her story, we see a Tomoe that yearned to be free and be relied on and for the first time, we see her do something reckless: We see her stay in the face of danger, an uncertain outcome that could cost her life and she chooses to stay because she believes in the path she's taken.

Tomoe as she was writing a letter for her father, has come to realize there's so much learn in this path she's chosen, but with her newfound resolve it will be a matter of time as she gets closer to become the person she's always dreamt to be.

Both Maria and Tomoe learned different things in that fateful day. For Maria she learned to rely on others, For Tomoe she learned to rely on herself. It's no wonder that they're drawn to each other, I like to believe both Maria and Tomoe see in each other a quality each aspire to have. Maria loved Tomoe's sharp insight, While Tomoe loved Maria's fiery spirit. They really complement each other quite nicely.

And honestly when you think about it, it does give me yu.kichie vibes this whole thing. Both have a girl that yearns to be free and a girl that while a bit violent means well and just wants to protect thus she cares.

ANYWAY THIS IS WHY I SHIP THEM. THANKS FOR COMING TO MY TED TALK.
