   Summary

   Fuck Jack Abbot. Fuck Jack Abbot. Fuck Jack Abbot. Fuck Jack Abbot. Fuck Jack Abbot. Fuck Jack Abbot.

   All those nervous habits turn on again all at once, the bouncing the tapping the everything everything everything— He can't fucking breathe.

   Fuck you, Jack, fuck you fuck you fuck you.

   Why the hell did he have to go and get shot at whenever he's not fucking running around trying to save everyone's lives down here? Too fucking noble, too fucking selfless, too fucking kind for this fucked up world. Robby's nose stings, and he sniffs, blinking hard to keep himself under control.

   Fuck Jack Abbot.

   He can't lose anyone else here. He can't lose anyone else.

   Least of all, Jack.

   Fuck.

   ***

   Dr. Robby returns early from his sabbatical, having avoided telling anyone but Dana. His first day back goes smoothly, until it doesn't, and he is forced to face the impact his leaving had on the man he cares about most.
