Summary
Dennis takes a deep breath in to calm himself, but as he breathes out, he confesses, “Trinity made a bet with Samira that I could get anyone in the bar to buy me a drink because I kind of have a knack for it, but Samira chose you, and now they’re watching us, and I’m so sorry.”
His boss blinks at him a couple of times, probably figuring out the least problematic way to fire him or berate him for being so damn unprofessional. He should’ve just said no to Trinity and Samira and killed the vibes for the night; he’d prefer that to whatever Robby is about to say. He can already see the anger bubbling up inside him that’s going to—
“I’ll buy you a drink.”
Dennis stares at him, unblinking. After a few seconds, he manages to ask, “What?”
“I’ll buy you a drink,” Robby repeats, then leans over to pat the bar stool next to him. “But you’re going to have to earn it.”
-:-:-:-:-:-
Or, Dennis tries every trick in the book to get Dr. Robby to buy him a drink and to stay.

Summary
“Santos recently got into soccer and she’s been pulling Dennis into it,” Robby elaborated, and Dana couldn’t tell you why she didn't question in that moment why he knew that fact. “We’re talking about which team to support, since Pittsburgh doesn’t have one.”
“Robby doesn’t even have a team,” Whitaker complained, and the lack of honorific was so obvious in hindsight, though right then Dana had hardly questioned when the resident had gotten so comfortable with the attending. “He just roots for whoever is playing against Philly.”
“City loyalty,” Robby emphasized again, causing the younger man to roll his eyes once more and huff out an exasperated sigh.
“Sorry, kid,” Dana offered to Whitaker. “I’m with Robby on this one. Fuck Philly.”
or:
Three times Dennis and Robby's relationship should've been obvious to everyone around them, and the one time nobody could ignore it anymore.

Summary
That first day, Robby had decided that, for longer than Dennis probably wanted this to last, Robby would helplessly leave his door open—for him to come unannounced, to come every day, to roll in the sheets and to linger, to place his things among Robby’s and lose sight of them, to give Robby the joy of discovering one of his sweaters, or one of his books, or one of his handwritten notes when cleaning out his closet before Pesach: unadulterated, tangible proof of him. Proof that he was to come back, proof that he was to stay.
Naturally, Robby told none of this to him.

Summary
He has tendencies, is the thing. He knows he does.
The bottomless pit opens up in his belly, and all the ways he could take care of Whitaker flash before his eyes. He could be the one they call. He could be the one who looks out for the kid. He'd look out for him so well, no-one would ever dare fuck with him. He'd want for nothing. Robby could keep him so satisfied.

Summary
“One more week of my emergency rotation.” Whitaker explains. His smile is almost rueful, laced with disappointment. “They’re sending me to plastics next.”
Robby doesn’t know if he’s disappointed to not see Whitaker’s face around as much anymore or relieved that he won’t have to sit with these thunderstorms of emotions any longer. They’ll surely fade as Whitaker does from Robby’s day-to-day life.
“They’ll be lucky to have you.” Robby says.

Summary
Dennis ignores the urge to fill his free time with more work— he only works overtime if necessary, and he even limits his volunteer hours at the women's shelter to one weekend per month —and takes Trinity's advice to find something to do just to do, just for enjoyment's sake.
Which for him, means: birdwatching.

Summary
“I put in 1095, but it won’t turn off!” Dennis shrieks, trying to be heard over the sound of the alarm. He knows that he didn’t get the numbers wrong because he’s staring right at them on the crumpled sticky note. “What am I doing wrong?”
“Did you push the off button?”
Dennis looks at the keypad, not seeing anything that says Off. “What?!”
“Put the code in and push the pound sign after.”
Dennis does as he’s told, except, in his panic, he hits the asterisk instead. “Shit.”
“It’s the hashtag,” Robby says, sounding entirely put out.
“I know what a pound sign is,” Dennis grumbles, hitting the button and noticing the word Off in the smallest font known to man under the #.

The box looks out of place.
Maybe it belongs somewhere else.
Dennis picks it up, inside there are two faux-leather brown journals.
Dennis just looks at them for a moment before picking one up, they’re pretty.
Before thinking about it, he opens it, and the chicken scratch handwriting that he has associated with Robby welcomes him on the first page.
September 26th, 2025.
I haven’t hand-written anything that isn’t a prescription or residence reports in a long time-
Dennis snaps it close.
Those are Robby’s journals. Personal journals.
Those are Robby’s diaries.

Summary
Michael "Robby" Robinavich just finished his fourth of July shift and is headed on his sabbatical, which he describes as three months on his motorcycle on the open road, but is in reality his carefully planned suicide. It's been a long time coming.
Only problem is, in an uncharacteristically romantic gesture, he asked Dennis Whitaker to house-sit for him. Robby likes the idea of it, of Dennis having his place, being comfortable and taken care of, even after Robby's dead. It's not like he can tell Whitaker he's been in love with him for almost a year. There's no way he'd ever feel the same way, he's just a kid. It's better this way.
When they meet to exchange keys, a series of complications—and Whitaker being a motorcycle virgin—throw off Robby's plan to hit the road and get to dying as fast as possible. But it's just a short delay. What's the worst that could happen?
