Summary
The mom didn’t back off.
“Come on,” she nudged, “tell me you’re not single. A man like you shouldn’t be.”
“Well…” Robby said, exhaling softly, “actually, you see that blonde nurse outside? That’s my girlfriend.”
Jack froze.
Ms. Campbell seemed as caught off guard as Jack himself, the smile on her face faltering as the words sank in.
It made sense. Of course it made sense.
Robby and Dana.
Or, Robby and Dana use each other as pretend significant others whenever a patient doesn’t take no for an answer. Jack, being new, has no idea about the arrangement.

Summary
Darnell nodded, glancing over Robby like he was trying to place him in the hierarchy of important to ignorable and it could go either way. "What's this?"
"MSF FNG," Jack shot back. Whatever that meant, he sounded amused.
Darnell scoffed and looked to Robby, expression going decidedly unimpressed. "Oh, yeah? You here to find yourself? Have an adventure? Do something hard?" he asked, each question more mocking than the last.
And there was that question again, like it was haunting Robby. He stifled his instinct to bite back and kept it simple: "I'm here to help."

Summary
“You know,” Jack says. “It wasn’t your fault. Any of it.”
Robby is sure that there are many things that happened today, a thousand days ago, that he can’t help but bear some blame for. He lets his breath pass through his teeth. “Whatever happened to your Catholic guilt, huh?”
“It got blown to pieces with my leg,” Jack says. “Besides,” he says—and it’s this morning on the roof again, the sun coming up. “This is about your guilt, misplaced as it is.” His gaze sinks to some far-off place. “Not mine."

Summary
Who even covers their mark if it’s that prominent anyways? Jack's mom always said if your mark isn’t well hidden it’s a sign that your match loves you more. It was a dig at him, with his hidden script she’d hated so much.
It hurts Jack to see someone deny love in such a blatant way. What’s so good about you Michael Robinavitch that you don’t want to be matched?

Summary
Robby was used to coming up to the roof. By this point in time, the way the early morning hit against the rooftop, sparkling across the concrete, was a decoration he was used to. It made the place look encrusted at times, catching on broken bottles that never got cleaned up, on rocks that somehow stayed up here, only amplified by the way gold foiled over everything.
It was gorgeous, on days when he actually had shifts. When he hadn't been called and texted by John, who told him something was wrong with Jack today. That they got too many cases that hit Jack right in the chinks in his armor, arrowheads to sensitive gaps, and by the end of the night, John had stayed on the roof for the fifteen minutes it took Robby to get here.
Or; Robby gets called by Shen that Jack's on the roof, and he's standing way too close to the edge for comfort. Eventually, they go home, and Robby takes care of Jack so sweetly.

Summary
The second that the notification went off, damning and intimately familiar, Jack's head snapped over and Robby, wide-eyed, flushed a deep shade of red as he fumbled with his phone to turn the sound off. Surely he'd misheard. There was no one else around to corroborate, otherwise Jack might've turned to them with a questioning look, a, did you hear that too?
The blush on Robby's face was telling enough, muttered apologies falling from his lips as he tucked his phone away again, steadfastly refusing to meet Jack's eyes.
A lot of things crossed his mind at once. Chief among them was the dawning realization that Robby's once-upon-a-time hookup with some guy in college wasn't, apparently, a drunken mistake. And behind it, something darker — jealousy.
--
robby's phone pings with a grindr notification, and jack's normal about it.

Summary
[He swallowed again, raising the phone to his ear, squeezing his eyes tight.
It only rang twice before his dad picked up. “Hey, kiddo.”
Even at fifty-four years old, Robby was still his kiddo. Robby choked on a sob. “Hey, abba.”
“Whoa, you okay?”
Robby swallowed, hating how a whimper slipped out. “No. No, I’m not okay. Can you come get me?” He honestly did not trust himself enough to drive at the moment. Not over the bridge and at least half an hour away, probably more with traffic.
“Yeah, of course. Where are you?” There was shuffling on the other end of the line.
Except Robby didn’t know how to answer. He was at the park, but he didn’t want to wait half an hour there for his dad to pick him up. He also wanted a shower and to change. To get the awful day off of him. But he also was afraid to walk home. Was afraid he’d do something dumb.
“Can you pick me up at my apartment? But—but stay on the line?” That would keep him accountable. He couldn’t let something happen to himself if his dad was listening.
“Yeah, kiddo. Half an hour.”]

Three months after PittFest, Robby is still dealing with the aftermath as he continues running the ER. Langdon is back from rehab, Jack is back to day shift, and the med students are being suspiciously nosy.
As the winter holidays approach, he tries to balance running the ER while dealing with what happened to he and Jack after being on the roof together back in September. He tries to work through things in therapy but the forced proximity to Jack only fuels the spiral in his mind about what they are (and what they aren't.)

"So hot," the other woman agreed, shooting a quick glance out at Jack. "Those arms. Have mercy."
Robby hid a smile. Jack was gonna love hearing about this.
Her friend made an agreeing sort of noise. "Yeah, but I'm gonna be so real with you: the leg kinda freaks me out."
And Robby froze, a ripple of offense sweeping him.

Summary
"Congrats again on the award; you deserve it." And with that, she disappeared into the crowd.
Probably off to go plan how to hit on Jack. Jack, who this random doctor wanted to have sex with. Here. At the conference.
Intellectually, Robby knew that was what people did at these things. Drunken hookups at conferences were common, though often denied, if not regretted. Robby had never partaken because that was not his speed, but Jack—
Well, Jack had no such qualms. And at an ED medical conference, he was basically a rockstar. He could probably have anyone he wanted.
