    Summary

    Fifteen minutes.
    The time left until the final class of the day so he can return to his dorm.
    His foot is tapping the ground impatiently as he checks the time from his phone. The sun is bright and up, the campus is impossibly loud with everyone trying to make the most of the nice weather. But not Till. He very much prefers this small shadowed place he found near the building where he has his class in– Alone, and a cigarette between his fingers to pass the time.

    Summary

    For two years, Dennis Whitaker's only friend was a handsome, tired man who loved his sandwiches with extra peppers. He never imagined that "Michael" was Dr. Robinavitch, ER attending, and that their carefully built bubble was about to explode in a way neither of them could've predicted.

     

    Or the one where Dennis and Robby knew each other for two years before their first shift together.

    Summary

    Dennis became a doctor to help people—it was who he was. He expected exhaustion, difficult patients, and teasing from peers, but not the quiet pull toward his grieving senior, Dr. Robby. When a panic attack breaks Robby’s carefully kept distance, Dennis steps in without hesitation. But in the days that follow, what began as compassion starts to feel like something deeper—something Dennis never expected to find in the halls of The Pitt.

    Summary

    “I don’t know what I want to do.” Dennis admits. He looks over at Robby, staring at the side of his face. They’ve been closer than this before, but being in the car together feels strangely intimate. “What would you do?”

    “If it was me… I’d at least go for that dinner. But I’m not you. You need to do what’s best for you, Dennis.” 

    There it is again, his name from Robby’s mouth. It makes his attention linger, still staring at Robby’s face. Dennis is once again overwhelmed with the urge to just bury his face in Robby’s neck and pretend the world doesn’t exist, but that’s not the grown up thing to do. He squeezes his eyes shut for a second, rubs his temples with his fingertips as Robby continues, “Carry your patients with you as much or as little as you like. Find your balance. But remember that you’re human.”

    Dennis opens his eyes to the countryside fading away and the city bleeding in. He knows Robby is right. That’s what he needs: balance. 

    In his last year of med school, Dennis learns to let go of the guilt that plagues him.

    Summary

    The chill was creeping in now that the heat of the fight had worn off. Chuuya could still feel the pulse of it—but the ache was good. Grounding. Proof he was still here. Still breathing.

    And Dazai was missing.
    Typical.

    OR


    Dazai always disappears after missions.
    It’s nothing new—just another pain in the ass Chuuya’s learned to tolerate. But tonight, something feels different. The bruises haven’t healed right. The reports don’t match the damage. And that smile—too smooth, too empty—hasn’t reached his eyes in months.

    Chuuya tells himself it’s fine. That Dazai is fine. Because if he isn’t… then Chuuya’s already missed something he can’t afford to miss.

    Because when someone lies like it’s second nature—when every “I’m fine” is just another punchline—you stop asking what’s real.

    Until it’s too late...
