    Summary

    Ex Mormon Dennis Whitaker, folks. ft a lot of mental breakdowns. author is lowk working through trauma with this one (I am exmo)

    Title and chapter headings from We'll Never Have Sex by Leith Ross <3

    (His desire for human contact was embarrassingly innocent. A hand squeezing his shoulder, the nape of his neck, petting through his hair. Sometimes, laid down at night, alone, he would pet himself like that. Rub his scalp, pretend it was someone else's hands. If it was someone else, who would it be? Would they whisper sweet things to him?

    Now, he imagined it to be Dr Robby. As humiliating as that is, he can't help himself. Dr Robby gave him something to work with— he squeezes his own shoulder, pressing his thumb into that bit of skin Dr Robby had touched. Dr Robby's hands are bigger, warmer, but Dennis makes do.)

    Summary

    It wasn’t his first hockey fight, not by far. After decades of playing, it was impossible to avoid the occasional scrum. It just wasn’t something that Shane purposefully tried to get involved in. He wasn’t like Ilya, he didn’t find joy in pushing and prodding at the other team until one of them snapped and threw a punch. When a scrum did break out, he hardly ever joined the fray, preferring instead to focus on managing the refs and trying to get his team out of the fight with as few penalties as possible. 

    When Shane’s fist connected with Comeau’s cheekbone, Shane grinned. 

    --

    Or, the moment Shane realized he played his last game as a Montreal Metro and has to come to terms with everything that means after. Featuring Shane realizing he's not as okay as he seems, and Ilya trying to figure out how he can help.

    Summary

    After getting overwhelmed on his last day before his sabbatical, Robby discovers an easy way to self-soothe: Dennis’ extremely soft hair. His fixation with his hair replaces a lot of self-sabotage that he typically defaults to, but it all goes downhill as Dennis struggles to hide how into it he is when Robby pets him.

    AKA Robby fails to realize that petting his resident has the added effect of making said resident horny and in love. Dopamine addictions on both ends.

    Summary

    “What do you want to do with him?” Jack Abbot’s voice filtered through to where Dennis was standing in the hallway. They’d planned this. Better to just get it over with. Dennis entered the room, their backs towards him. He got onto his knees by their feet.
    “You can do what you like, I won’t argue.” His voice was quiet, scared. Both men snapped around at his words, eyes looking for him before finding him on the floor.
    “Oh my god!” Jack gasped out, abject horror written across his face.

    Dennis Whitaker didn’t make the decision consciously. He’d been homeless for three weeks when it began. He’d been couch surfing, but after being turfed again he was stuck. Bouncing between shelters when he could, but often finding himself in doorways and underpasses. That’s how it began. In a red light district he never knew existed and $50 from a man with mean eyes. It spiralled from there.

    Now living with Trinity Santos, Dennis had begun his residency, still he finds himself back there. A habit he can’t kick, the punishment he thinks he deserves. Dennis is trying to survive the war zone in his mind. What happens when his senior attendings realise the length he’s gone to in order to make it here?

    Summary

    When Dennis agreed to cover shifts for Dr. Mohan on the night shift, he didn't think he would ever end up here. Kidnapped from the ambulance bay, his head pounding, and having to save the life of a man with limited medical supplies. That was supposed to be it. Somehow, he finds himself snatched up off a sidewalk, in the stables, in front of his home. There were no sacred spaces when you proved your worth.

    In the middle of it all, Dennis is confused by the way Dr. Robby and Dr. Abbot are circling him. The way they'd reach out and brush their fingers against his skin. The way they made sure he ate, got rest, and stayed safe. It made him ache with something he hadn't felt in a long time.
