Summary
Robby doesn’t raise his voice often. He doesn’t need to.
Whitaker is used to pressure, used to being watched, corrected, measured. Used to pushing harder when it feels like he’s falling behind something he can’t name.
So when Robby tells him, that he isn’t sure he belongs here, it shouldn’t matter.
It does.
Because Whitacker has spent his entire life proving he does.
And when the shift ends, he starts proving it somewhere else too.
Somewhere Robby was never meant to see.

Summary
The day Robby was supposed to leave for his sabbatical, Jack gets a call. It's Robby.
“Robby what is it? What's going on?" Abbot says, his heart now racing, hands shaking.
Robby’s voice breaks, he sounds timid, scared. “Y-, You, You said to call”
Everything stops.
“If it gets dark, you call me.”
The words he had said only 2 days ago. The words he said to Robby as an effort, a hand to reach out and tell Robby he knew he couldn't handle this. To remind Robby that he had a lifeline.
