"'Hey, Robby! Look at me.' Jack instructed firmly, taking Robby’s hands in his own. 'Squeeze my hands, Rob, right and left.'

Summary
Robby murmurs, calm as a man commenting on the weather: “Cabbage step table.”
Jack blinks. “…what?”
Robby nods like he’s agreeing with himself. “Jump table cabbage jump.”
Jack freezes.

Summary
When his phone rang loud in the stillness, waking Jack from the sleep of the dead he'd perfected in war zones half a world away, he sat straight up in bed and knew: something was wrong.
His phone announced it was Dana—and it was 0721—which shot a little thrum of worry through him as he answered. "What happened?" he asked, no preamble. She wouldn't wake him if shit hadn't gone sideways.
"Robby hasn't come in yet and he's not answering his phone," she said, voice grim. "He's never missed a shift without calling." She spoke quietly, probably standing in the middle of the ED, trying to keep up a brave face for everyone else. As much as she could, anyway. People tended to notice when the fucking chief attending didn't show up to work.

Summary
Today is four months to the day since Frank was kicked out of the ED. Four months since Santos reported him, leading to Robby finding Louie’s Librium in his locker. Four months since he tried to kill himself, by downing a bottle of valium. Four months since he went into respiratory failure and crashed in south six. Four months since he was mandated to go to rehab in order to keep his job. Four months since he finally hit rock bottom.

Summary
“Jack,” Robby whispers, trying to bite back the sobbing whine that actually wants to tear out of him.
Stroking his hair back, his thumb rubbing a circle into Robby’s temple, Jack whispers back, “I’m right here. You’re in good hands, you’re in my hands, babe. I got you.” A rough kiss pushes into Robby’s forehead, and Robby hiccups again. “You fucking— I love you, you— You goddamned idiot.”
“Sorry,” Robby mumbles upwards at him. “Thought it was better this way.”
“Nothing that hurts you is ever better,” Jack insists, with force. “Ever.”
or: robby hides his increasing realization that he has appendicitis— until he literally can't anymore, and he and jack are both forced to act.

Summary
Sicktember Day 13- Chronic Illness
His body simply doesn't play by the rules. Which is why it's been pleasantly surprising, over the past few years, that he's been able to keep his malfunctions covert enough to avoid suspicion. Each faint at work has been in the lounge or bathroom, either hidden in plain sight feigning a nap, or curled in a cramped stall with his neck at an angle. When his GI issues play up, he blames bad takeout or, more profitably it seems, his anxiety. During migraine attacks and feverish spells, he tells the others that he's simply feeling a little ‘under the weather’.
And the good thing about County is that everybody's too busy to ask questions.
OR
Unbeknownst to the rest of the ER, Carter has POTS. During his first ever long shift as a surgical intern, it rears its ugly head to make his life a (barely) living hell.

Summary
How mad is he allowed to be, really, when he accepted these terms? He’s half responsible for this fucked-up in-between they live in, where they work together as responsible adults and professional colleagues, go back to one of their apartments, drink two beers each, and stick their tongues down each other’s throats. And he’s fine with it, it’s fine, so fine, so good bro, except when it’s not and he wishes Robby would stay.

Summary
“It’s going to be fine,” Jack promises him, as if he can promise him that. “Flu’s not taking you down, is it?”
“Guess it’s your job to make sure it doesn’t,” Robby replies. Despite the verbal blows Jack just aimed right into his ribs, he still feels bad for the way Jack’s face drains of color once he’s said it. “Jack—”
“Go lay down before it starts,” Jack instructs him, and Robby recognizes Dr. Abbot taking over in more ways than one. “I’ll come check on you in an hour, alright?”
For one more heartbeat, Jack doesn’t move. Again, Robby feels the pang down the center of his chest into his stomach that simultaneously tells him to kiss him and reminds him that he can’t.
or: robby catches a deadly flu in the pitt while treating patients. jack is his only hope for survival.

Summary
“What the hell happened?”
“What happened, Michael,” Jack answers, hard, as if Robby can’t see the broken-open expression on his face, “is you got yourself hit by about five thousand pounds of steel and dropped out on me—”
“Shit,” Robby curses. “Jack— I’m sorry. You okay?”
Jack laughs without much humor in it. “Are you— Are you kidding me? Seriously? Your heart stopped on my table, you’re asking if I’m fucking okay?”
“Yeah, I am,” Robby says, because if it’d been Jack without a pulse on his table, he knows he would not be anywhere near okay.

Summary
Carter doesn't quite know what compels him to do what he does. Perhaps it's some misguided sense of heroism, his lifelong inability to just let things be when there's something- anything- he can do about it. Perhaps it's reckless stupidity brought on by yet another shift of doing anything but saving lives.
Whatever it is, he leans into it fully, and slips into the freezing depths.
OR
The one where Carter almost drowns.
