Summary
Phil Callahan has made a large variety of strange arrests in his time working as a cop for Hawkins, Indiana. Daylight skinny-dippers; a small group of old ladies who’d attempted to rob the corner shop with their umbrellas, a guy who’d stolen a total of eighteen gnomes from his suburban neighborhood.
But pulling over Max Mayfield driving her brother’s Camaro at the ripe age of thirteen was pretty insane. Sure, kids will be kids and kids will be crazy. Until Steve Harrington crawled out of the backseat, clutched his knees and horror-movie hurled blood all over his boots and shit got crazier.
That took it from a minor concern to oh, fuck. Callahan has to take this kid to a hospital.

Summary
It was Amy she had a lot of fun nights with while she worked for EMILY's List. It was Amy whose arms she fell asleep in during the DNC of 1998. In between that, it was Amy who held her hair back when she threw up after meeting John Hoynes at a charity event in Texas; Amy who held her through it, who talked her down and brought her home, and Amy who she never wanted to speak to again after that night.
Amy is there through the aftermath of that one night with Hoynes.

Summary
Jack has a particularly hard shift and escapes to the roof, chasing a stillness that won’t come. Samira finds him there. She doesn’t speak. She doesn’t need to. Instead, she offers the one thing he really needs; her presence.
And just this once, he lets himself take it.

“Robby and Heather’s sitter canceled,” she said when Jack gave her a look over Naya’s shoulder. “They had dinner plans. I told them I’d take Naya for the night.”
Jack blinked. “You what?”

Summary
Samira wakes Jack from a PTSD nightmare, getting (very mildly) injured in the process. They work through Jack's guilt together.
“Jack, hey — I need you to wake up for me, okay?” She prides herself on keeping the panic out of her voice as she reaches out and places a hand gently on his shoulder. The second she does it, she knows it’s the wrong move.

CJ's has been awarded a Matrix Award by the New York Women in Communications organisation. It really shouldn't matter that her colleagues don't remember, or don't get what she did to earn it. It can't help but sting a little, anyway. Sometimes Leo knows just what to say.

AAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
the irrevocably tangled web of being a woman in a man’s world, where your accomplishments in a woman’s category will never impress and your accomplishments in a man’s/general category will only bring on criticism. Of being loved only on an individual basis and not for being who and what you are WHILE being a woman. -

Summary
Last Christmas during the Bartlet administration.
CJ's developed an eating disorder during season 6 and 7, getting notably worse after the shutle leak. She's unsure of how to juggle that alongside her job, health, and future career. Leo listens and understands better than most. (Partially inspired by how he talks about his addiction in "Bartlet for America").

Summary
She’s been living in the depths of hell since this all came out. She wakes every morning with a deep set green feeling and the question of whether she’s doing the right thing. It takes it out of her; playing a part in running the country and coming home to a man who’s trying to make his peace but has never been so empty. She tries to fill the space — fill the emptiness, but that kind of space is bigger than she’ll ever be.
