    Summary

    Dennis Whitaker stumbles onto Dr. Jack Abbot having a panic attack on the hospital roof and helps him through it.

    After that, Abbot can’t stop noticing things.
    How tired Dennis looks.
    How often he skips meals.
    How he never seems to go home.

    So Abbot comes up with a plan: offer Dennis a highly exclusive position as his in-house research assistant in an effort to help Dennis get back on his feet. Strictly for therapeutic reasons, of course.

    (Not therapist approved.)

    Summary

    “Do you actually have a place to live?”

    Dennis has never been a good liar, and Jack Abbot’s unrelenting stare might as well be a polygraph test.

    “I’m currently between places,” he admits.

    Abbot works his jaw, head tilting to the side as he continues to assess Dennis like he’s a patient in his ED.

    “Do you own a car?” He asks, his voice sounding softer to Dennis but maybe it's just dampened by the sound of his own pulse in his ears.

    “Not at the moment, no, I’m actually-”

    “Between cars?” Abbot finishes for him.

    Shame pushes Dennis’s head down. “Yeah, something like that.”

    Abbot continues to stare at him -does this guy ever blink?- before he sighs and shakes his head.

    "Alright, pack your shit," He orders, clearly having heard enough.

    -

    Jack discovers Dennis instead of Trinity. Behind closed doors, neither of them is really holding it together, and an unlikely support system is formed.
