Summary
It's his very first shift and Dennis has already discovered an issue with his ED rotation.
Every time their attending, who he is expected to report every damn decision to, glances in Dennis’ direction, his breath catches and stomach flutters. And if that wasn’t enough, it gets drastically worse whenever the man speaks directly to him. The first time Robby asked Dennis a question, he’d blushed. Blushed.
Or, Dennis has a heart condition and maybe also a crush. Or two. He's used to dealing with everything alone, until his two married attendings prove he doesn't have to.

Summary
Dennis's words climb back up. "You just… you assume things, you make decisions, you act like you know what's best for everyone—"
Robby's gaze is fixed on him. Dennis's broad shoulders are coiled tight; there’s an angry, pink flush creeping up his neck; his long fingers keep clenching into fists and unclenching at his sides.
"—and you don't even see how fucking condescending that is, how it makes me feel like I'm— like I'm not even a person to you, just some project—"
Robby watches Dennis unwravel under the weak spill of the streetlight filtering in through the window, his curls flashing copper and gold, his voice hoarse and furious and he knows he should calm him down, shout back, beg for forgiveness.
But he can't.
He's never seen anything more beautiful.or: robby comes back from his sabbatical to find dennis whitaker absolutely furious with him. this is, unexpectedly, not the worst thing that's ever happened to him

Summary
Robby always remembered the man who studied with him in med school. He’d first met him at a bar dancing freely like nothing could hurt him. He saw him pick up another man and leave with him and envied the courage he had. When he saw him in his medical course he picked up the courage to get with him.
Abbot always remembered the wounded man he'd picked up in the Desert. A British soldier who had escaped captivity. He’d helped nurse him to health. And soon the two became entangled.
Robby always wondered what happened to the man, he just disappeared one day. Abbot wished he didn’t know what happened to the Brit.
So when a med student appeared looking like the man they both lost it’s too good to be true.
Dennis just wants to die. Hopefully when he’s not undead. So why does he have to spend this last hurrah tortured by the only people he’s ever loved.
Or
Dennis is a suicidal vampire trying to die as a human. And on his last attempt the two attendings from his past are put on his path .
