    Summary

    When Carmy’s piece of shit father finally dies, the news doesn’t come through family. It’s through a lawyer. An older man with a painter’s brush mustache, a Saint Laurent checkered cashmere suit, and a Chopard on his wrist. The inheritance is clear, his ill-gotten estate is to be split between his remaining biological children. The only issue is the two clauses to the hefty windfall heading their way.

    One - If any sibling can’t meet the standards of the clause, the other siblings can not share their inheritance or they forfeit their own.

    Two - They must be legally married for at least one year before receiving their share.

    When Carmy can see the dreams he’d be able to make a reality with that cash fade away he’d blurted out that he was engaged without thinking. Engaged to Sydney. The only issue with Carmy’s grand plan was Sydney hadn’t spoke to him since he left The Bear. Almost two years ago.

    Summary

    “Well—I don’t fuckin’ know Sug,” Richie bites out, “I’m not a doctor, and neither are you, or Syd, or this fucko.” He points at Luca, who reels back a little and blinks owlishly.

    “And that fucko,” Richie continues, gesturing at Carmy, “is not exactly what I would call helpful either! He’s just sitting there with—with that fuckin’ face on his face instead of tellin’ us what’s wrong with him!”

    Sydney feels a headache starting to build between her eyes. She pinches at the spot. This whole situation feels like a scene straight out of a sitcom. Or a dramedy, depending on how the rest of the episode unfolds.

    “Dude,” she says to Richie, “did you seriously just quote Hereditary right now?”

    In which Carmy gets a concussion, and somehow, Sydney and Richie end up having a very good talk because of it.

    Summary

    They set the emotional thermostat of the entire restaurant, always have, and right now they’re running warm. The whole kitchen hums with it: sharp, sizzling, focused.

    “Chef?” Syd says, watching his trembling hand reach for the next steak. No response. “Yo, Carm— you’re about to sweat all over your wagyu.”

    Chef Carmy is sick, and Sydney won’t let him ignore it.

    sicktember prompts: 3. why are you so sweaty?
