Summary

"“I’ll do it.” Jack said, pressing the crosswalk button, but Robby gave a harsh laugh.
“What am I, five? I can get my own damn keys. Besides--” he locked eyes with his friend, face serious-- “no offense, brother, but I know your leg must be hurting. Come on.”
He hated how Jack was staring at him, brows furrowed slightly and that slight tension in his mouth that meant he wasn’t pleased with what he saw. Robby felt another wave of annoyance wash over him, though it was accompanied by fear prickling at the back of his neck. Jack looked far too serious, like he was seeing the decision for the life or death one it was. He held his gaze, hoping he was maintaining his playfully exasperated face well, and he saw the small exhalation as Jack gave in.
“Fine. Be back in five, though, or I’m coming in.”"...
or; Robby jumps out of a window after the PittFest shift. The ED is left to try to put him back together again.

The words rang around Garcia’s skull for a moment, slipping against the edges as she struggled to comprehend them. Robby was in the OR? Robby had…
“He fell?” She said tightly, but they both knew what she was asking. Her free hand clenched the bedsheets as the line stayed silent for just a beat too long."...
or; Garcia gets a call from Lena explaining what she's getting into in the morning.
