Summary
“Babe,” he murmurs in the swell of an amber glow as he turns on another lamp. TK doesn’t react, gaze caught on what Carlos can now tell is the framed picture of the two of them sitting on one of the shelves. He shuffles over while shaking out the blanket by the corners and drapes it over TK’s shoulders when he reaches his side. “Are you alright?”

Summary
He rubs his chest feeling damp and droplets of water pooling at his neck. “What? Why? Why am I all wet?”
“I threw water on you.”
He tries to blink away the brain fog. “Okay, and why did you do that?”
“You passed out! I thought you died!” Carlos says frantically, climbing off him, reaching a hand to help him sit up. “Again.”
“So you decided to drown me and finish the job?”

Summary
TK couldn’t control the new things that leaked onto the market. He couldn’t control the uptick of overdoses. He couldn’t control the response time, or the time before they got the call, or even the number of times the patient was gone before they could find them. He couldn’t control if they woke up, no matter what they tried or did.
What he could control was how they woke up.
