Summary
“What the fuck,” Jake says flatly, because the person standing in the doorway is definitely not Michael Robinavitch.
“Oh,” the guy on the doorstep makes, sounding as dumbfounded as Jake feels. “You are not the Doordash guy.”
“No shit,” Jake says. “I’m Jake, I’m here for Robby.”
“Yes,” the guy smiles faintly, “I know who you are,” and that’s when Jake realizes that he recognizes the man.

Four times someone found out about Robby and Whitaker, and the one time they told someone.

Summary
“Well.” Michael puts his glass down on his coaster. Taps the hobnailed glass with his fingertips, once, twice. Then, as casually as he’s said anything else that evening, “I had a really shitty day at work and I was hoping to work that frustration out by fucking some stranger.”
“I’m a stranger.” Dennis hears himself say.

Dennis goes to a gay bar for the first time. He meets a handsome stranger called Michael. Smut ensues. Definitely no consequences will follow.Series

Summary
Dennis hears the revving of a motorbike engine, disturbing his reverie and making him frown. It’s late — who in their right mind is out driving around on a motorbike? He waits for it to pass, so he can slip back into thinking about Robby and dinner and what they might do after dinner, when the engine cuts out. Dennis lifts his head, eyes opening, taking a second to adjust—
“Need a ride?” Robby asks him, holding out a spare helmet to Dennis. "Jack told me you only just left.”
He steps forward, taking the helmet from Robby. “So you’ve been spying on me?”
“The whole time I’ve been gone.” Robby nods, as Dennis swings himself onto the back of the bike. He winds his arms around Robby’s waist, tucks himself in against his back, and contents himself with the familiar warmth of his body as Robby starts the bike up again.
~*~
In October, Robby comes home. Dennis tries to decide what that means for them both.

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 first couple of dollars that the machine ate up without remorse were an annoyance, something that made Dennis sigh and unzip his wallet without thinking about it to try again. By the time that the vending machine had eaten seven whole dollars, in coins, and Dennis didn’t have anything to show for it, he was close to thumping his forehead against the cool glass and hoping he could derive some sort of enjoyment or nourishment from simply just looking at the colourful packages as they remained firmly in their coils.
He didn’t often carry coins. Those were his last few dollars and he was woefully aware that somebody had offhandedly mentioned that the staffroom vending machine destroyed notes, so he wasn’t going to be getting a soda, a bag of chips or anything else that might settle his belly from the incessant grumbling it was doing.
~
5 times + 1 that Robby buys something for Dennis and makes him feel like he's about to keel over, right there and then.

Summary
“Come on, kid,” someone says, rubbing his sternum with bruising fingers. Dennis desperately tries to swat the hands away, the bone already sensitive from the weight of the patient from just moments ago. “Open your eyes, Whitaker, come on. Look at me. Open your eyes.”
He twitches, his limbs flexing in odd and tight angles as he tries to expel the memory of the pain. He tries to speak, not to answer the question but to ask for help, help, anyone, anyone at all, his mom or one his brothers or the youth pastor who gives him bandages when no one is looking, just, God, please, please—
The best Dennis can manage is a deep gurgle from his throat.
*
When he gets seriously injured after an altercation with a patient, Dennis is forced to reveal parts of himself he would rather keep hidden.

Summary
When Whitaker accidentally sends a dick pic to Dr. Robby, he never thought it would end like this.
--
The ED team shuffles out, Whitaker and Dr. Robby taking up the rear. Dr. Robby stops him with a hand on Whitaker’s waist, there and gone. “Really,” he says low, directly into his ear, beard scratching his cartilage, “that was amazing. You didn’t waste any time starting compressions. That probably saved that baby’s life. You saved that baby’s life.”
The praise goes to his head, suffusing him with endorphins. “Thank you, Dad.” And he promptly wants to crawl out of his skin and slither down the drain with the after birth slop.

Summary
When Rex Lapis received the contract proposition from the Tsaritsa herself, he considered it thoroughly. Amidst the various conditions and technicalities, Rex Lapis issued a crucial demand: a helping hand in challenging the people of Liyue.
Without this aid, he declared, he couldn’t part with the Gnosis—his land, this diamond of the city, must be protected at all costs.
The Harbinger, wreaking havoc upon Rex Lapis’ beloved city, proved to be more resourceful than the combined strength of the Adepti and the Qixing. As the Jade Chamber collapses beneath the force of an ancient god, Morax, the Lord of Geo, returns from the dead.
Or, more accurately, from his disappointingly brief retirement.

Summary
“Understandable, given your situation,” Zhongli offers diplomatically. “If it is any consolation, I feel much the same way.”
A possibility crosses Childe's mind, and his expression changes thoughtfully. “Say, what if we made a deal? This is the Land of Contracts, after all, it should surely be appropriate.”
He can tell he’s piqued Zhongli’s interest, as the man’s head tilts and masked amber eyes narrow in on Childe’s face. “Oh? I have to admit, Master Childe, I am not particularly looking for new business ventures at the moment."
Childe waves a gloved hand dismissively. “No, no, not of that nature. I mean for the Hunt.”
Zhongli appears even more intrigued. “I’m listening.”
With a devious grin, Childe leans toward Zhongli and speaks lowly, though there’s no indication anyone is listening in on their conversation. “What if we partnered up for the Hunt? You’re not looking for a match, I’m not looking for a match, it’s a win-win opportunity.”

Summary
“Are you a Sentinel?” he blurts, before remembering Skirk's reticence to questions.
She doesn’t stop moving, but she does glance at him from the corner of her eye.
“No,” she says. “But you are a Guide.”
Ajax blinks, faltering. The woman does not stop there.
“You have also been blessed by Celestia. That Vision was next to you when I found you. To come into both blessings while in the Abyss.” She pauses. “You’re either extremely fortunate, or perhaps extremely cursed.”
“A Guide?” Ajax’s brow furrows. “No, I must be a Sentinel.”
------
Ever since Ajax was young, he has dreamed of being a Sentinel like his father. With heightened senses and strength, he could easily be a renowned adventurer, able to make a name for himself.Life does not quite work out that way.
