    Summary

    'Unbeknownst to Robby, however, he would not be leaving, and it was entirely due to that conversation. Because of that conversation, he was going to lose one of his doctors today.

    He did not know this yet.

    Nobody knew this yet.

    They wouldn’t know until twenty minutes later, when Whitaker went to do that neuro check on the man in South 14.

    AKA: What if instead of Emma who gets assaulted in Episode 11, it’s Whitaker, and then things go from bad to fucking catastrophic very, very quickly, because turns out Whitaker’s a very, very good liar, with a very, very large and very, very dangerous secret?

    What if Robby’s guilt is strong enough to stop his doomed-ass sabbatical, due to the overwhelming responsibility he feels to 'atone for what he's done'?

    What if Whitaker has a chronic condition and some really shitty history he never discussed with anyone, and Robby can't stop being a doctor, no matter how much he keeps trying?

    Summary

    It takes a few excruciatingly long moments for Trinity to register the person who has scooped up the preschooler in his arms as Frank Langdon. As in: the senior resident that publicly humiliated her on her first day. The very same Frank Langdon that she reported for stealing drugs from patients. The beloved asshole of the Pitt whose life she ruined.

    What the fuck.

    When Trinity takes a part-time gymnastics coaching position, she certainly doesn’t expect one of her star students to share a last name with the senior resident she somehow managed to (sort of) fire a few months ago

    Summary

    Skylar Rielly is restarting her life. New state. New hospital. New specialty.

    Her journey in medicine has been a rocky one thus far, but she is finding a home in the Pitt. A trauma center where there's only one working speed—fast. Skylar quickly realizes that surviving the Pitt is the exact distraction she needs. There’s no time for falling apart when you have a dozen patients crashing one after another.

    Skylar is finding a new family amongst her co-workers in a welcoming environment where learning and honesty are nurtured by her kind and patient attending. For the first time in a long time she has the strength to move forward with her life. Leave her skeletons in the dark where they belong. But what she thought were healed scars turn out to be open wounds, and when wounds go untreated infection sets in.

    At the end of the day, Skylar has only three, simple goals:
    1. Become a good doctor for her patients.
    2. Don't drown in her past.
    3. Fight off her growing feelings for her stupidly handsome, attentive, and caring attending because she knows first hand this won't end well.

    Summary

    Sometimes, very late at night, lying only a wall away from one of his closest friends, he wonders what it would be like to tell someone. Maybe it’s finally time to let someone in on even the deepest parts of himself. He falls asleep to the idea, letting the concept play out in a way that isn’t as tragic as he expects it to be in reality. Disappointment engulfs him in the morning when he knows he won’t do it anyway.

    ..

    Summary

    Dennis thought it might just be one last pep talk, a little reassurance before Robby disappears off the face of the earth for the next three months. Instead, Robby said, and now repeats, “I need you to keep an eye on Dr. Abbot for me.”

    Dennis points a finger at his chest, eyes doubling in size. “Me? You want me to… why?”

    Or...

    After the Fourth of July shift from hell, Robby assigns Dennis one last task before leaving on sabbatical: keep an eye on Jack Abbot. What starts as a favour to Robby very quickly develops into an unlikely friendship between the night shift attending and PTMC's newest intern. But what happens when the pair both start catching feelings? Is Jack ready to move on from his late wife? Is Dennis prepared for what all a relationship with Jack would entail?

    Well, they have three months to figure it out.
