Summary
Robby is obviously extremely pent up. He’s got chronic compassion fatigue. Everyone keeps telling him he needs to take a break, but no one ever tells him when he’s going to get one. So he does what he can when he can.
Or: Robby has sex with (almost) everyone on his team.
A/N: This was written and completed before the season 1 finale (April 10, 2025), which is when it was revealed that Jack is an amputee. This fic in no way intended to erase his disability.

Summary
Chuck buys Henry his first bowtie and a three-piece purple suit to match.
Dan buys Henry his first baseball glove and comes over every Friday afternoon to play catch.
Blair watches them play together and keeps thinking back to when she'd asked Dan if he didn't think it would matter that her baby was another man's child so many years ago.
She remembers how, in that much too earnest way of his, he'd said, "It wouldn't to me."
