    Summary

    On the hottest day of the year, a hostage situation breaks out in the ER trauma rooms. John Carter, Peter Benton, and Lucy Knight are at the center of it.

    John is hurt, badly. Peter's former student. Lucy's teacher. The two of them must work together, under the worst circumstances imaginable, to save his life.

    “Please let me help him,” Peter manages to get out, although it’s almost impossible to hear his own words over the pounding of his heart. His voice cracks. “Please. Please. He’s hurt. He’s my friend. He’s… he’s a good person. His name is John. John Carter. Please, man. I helped your friend. Please let me help mine.”

    Summary

    Dale didn't mean for this to happen. He didn't mean to hurt John. Not like this.

    An angry verbal exchange between John Carter and Dale Edson over John's new intern, Lucy Knight, takes a violent turn. They are in the morgue. There is a walk-in freezer. Dale locks Carter inside and leaves him there.

    It was only supposed to be for a few minutes. The pathologist was supposed to come right back. He was supposed to let John out.

    That's not what happens.

    OR: Carter nearly dies from hypothermia.

    Summary

    Peter Benton's anger over Carter's decision to quit surgery had been stewing for months.

    Of course, of course today would be the day that that festering anger exploded out of him. Made him say everything he could think of to hurt Carter. Played on his insecurities, his need for Peter’s approval. Took all that rage and forged it into a knife aimed directly at Carter’s heart.

    And now this.

    Or: in the aftermath of a shooting in the ER, Peter Benton is finally forced to deal with his emotions - and his fractured relationship with a certain former student.

    BTHB prompt- Banished

    Lucy is drunk when the idea is suggested. She's sitting in the dorm common area with a few of the other med students, knees tucked to her chest, nursing a bottle of beer, and amongst the hazy half-formed fantasies it's the one that somehow takes flight. 

    Doctor Carter is strict when it comes to dorm parties- but what if he didn't have to know about them?

    She arches her brow, struggling to keep Willy’s ever swaying gaze. What?

    Well, think about it. If we made sure there was no evidence in the morning, and somehow kept him out all night… he wouldn't have a clue.

    OR

    In an attempt to keep Carter from vetoing a dorm party, some of Lucy's fellow students decide to drug him with sleeping pills.

    Summary

    For a while, he'd kept it hidden beneath forced smiles, continuing to introduce himself to everybody in the hopes that once he grew accustomed to those around him, the nausea would die down.

    Except it didn't, and now he's kneeling down in front of Peter Benton's toilet, praying to a God he doesn't believe in that this isn't what he thinks it is.

    He cannot be sick.

    Summary

    It’s been about a week since Dennis’s very embarrassing realization. He wants to blame most of it on being an alpha, but, much like his possessiveness, it’s Dennis’s own odd nature.

    That doesn’t mean he wants Robby to know. And so, when he innocently passes Robby his phone to type something in one night he doesn’t consider what his mate may find.

    Robby flips through it for whatever he’s looking for and hums. He clicks the phone and hands it back to Dennis. Dennis thinks that’s the end of it, grabbing the remote to turn the volume back up until he hears Robby’s soft laugh behind him.

    “So, you wanna get me pregnant?”

    ——

    Otherwise known as Dennis realizing he wants to lock Robby down.

    Summary

    Abbot leans in at Robby's ear, voice gentle as Frank's ever heard it but still with the ex-military no-nonsense tone that suggests he’s giving an order he expects to be obeyed. “Robby?”

    “Yeah?”

    “Would you kindly stop teaching for a second so we can focus on saving your life?”

    Summary

    The letter arrives on a Tuesday morning. Jack is at work, so Robby is home alone when he rips open the envelope and unfolds the letter inside.

    He reads it three times, like he expects to find something new. It has to be a joke, or maybe it was sent to the wrong person. But it's his full name at the top of the letter, and the headed paper looks real.

    ********

    Robby receives a letter one day that cracks open a part of his past he thought had been closed forever. Jack helps him through some decisions he has to make.

    Summary

    “You did good, Alpha,” Robby whispers, then tenses, wishing he could suck back the air that contains the words and remove them from the wind that carries to Jack’s ears.
    The man’s scent flares and his pupils blow wide. The reaction – even though Robby knows it’s just the pre-Rut – is enough to make Robby not try and take it back or offer him an out.
    “Yeah?” Jack asks, vulnerable.
    “Yeah,” Robby breathes, a flush rising on his face.

    or; when Robby gets injured and triggers Jack's pre-Rut, they're both forced to confront their feelings for one another.

    Summary

    “What’s wrong?” Jack asked, beginning to get a bit worried about the other man.

    Robby fidgeted with his hands nervously.

    “My–erm…” He began. His eyes darted around the room. “My ex is here… not as a patient. I think as a potential new hire.”

    “Your ex?”

    “Hmmhm.”

    The one who hit you?” Jack said with a low growl.

    “He didn’t hit me…” Robby objected, turning his gaze to his feet. “He just pushed me around… and I kinda did egg him on.”

    “That’s not–” Jack stopped himself. “He laid a hand on you.”

    “Okay I get it! He was bad for me. I know that. I need you to do me a favor… I think he’s going to see if I’m available and maybe try to get me back.”


    Robby's toxic ex starts to work at PTMC and he asks Jack to be his fake mate. He didn't expect to acually fall for his best friend in the process.

    Summary

    The pain is all in his head. 

    When John was in rehab, he heard the words so often they became a mantra, one that echoed in his mind from the moment he woke up to the moment he fell asleep. Slowly but surely, the nonexistence of pain became an internalised truth.

    Except now he's sitting on a bench outside of the ER, curled into himself because he hurts, and for once, he can't be convinced that the pain exists only in his head. Something is wrong.

    OR

    Shortly after Carter arrives back to work from rehab, he starts to feel unwell. He knows he hasn't been using, but does everyone else?

    Summary

    Peter waits for the shock to wear off and the pain to kick in, touch already roving over his abdomen to find where the bullet must have entered. He comes up empty. From further back in the trauma room, Carol's voice suddenly emerges, thick with grief.

    “Oh my god, Carter.

    He turns to look immediately, finding his former student standing in the spot he himself occupied just moments ago. The boy’s eyes are directed at his own abdomen, at the hands that clutch it before he pulls them away, stained with blood. 

    OR

    A hostage situation on the hottest day of the year spirals out of control, and Carter's life hangs in the balance.

    Summary

    Carter’s not sure exactly when he first learned about the patented Peter Benton Dating Algorithm, but it must have been early on, because he internalised it like it was any other scrap of information he’d gleaned and hoarded like a crazy person, like his GPA (3.8), his birthday (September 9th) or his blood type (B positive).

    I is for Illness

    ***

    “I think he might have a headache, Dr Vucelich.”

    “Please, it's just Carl- and whether he does or not, it doesn't really matter. He's missing out on vital learning experiences here, Peter, surely you can see that.”

    The topic of conversation is changed. Carter becomes an afterthought to Vucelich, and that ought to be the case for Peter too, but it isn't. An hour passes, then two, and setup begins for the cardiac surgery panel. Carter doesn't show.

    OR

    Carter and Benton are invited to attend a conference in California as part of Vucelich's research project.

    Naturally, though, Carter gets sick after only a day, and it's up to Peter to decide where his priorities lie: with his student, or with the study.
