Summary
The plan was laundry. Meal prep. Maybe the documentary Trinity had been passive-aggressively telling him about for three weeks.
The plan did not account for Michael Robinavitch coming through a bar door laughing, Jack Abbott two steps behind him, and the particular quality of the look that passed between all three of them in the moment after.

Summary
Dennis Whitaker was right where he wanted to be.
Well, maybe not with who he wanted to be. He couldn’t help but try to imagine that the hands that were currently gripping at his waist were those big and calloused hands that were squeezing his shoulders a few hours before.
He couldn’t help but imagine that the smooth cheek rubbing against his neck was instead thick with beard, giving just that right itchy feeling that directed his blood right to his—
Not drunk enough then. He needed more.
Or
Dennis just wanted a night out and he never thought he would en up at the ER he worked at with a head laceration, drunk and stuck under the constant checking of his Attending.

Summary
"There has to be something you want to come back for. Something you can’t die without doing.”
Robby’s gaze roamed across Dennis's face, tracing the planes and sharp angles of his features like he was trying to commit them to memory. He already had a long time ago. The horrible, aching knot in his chest dedicated to Dennis was a piece of Robby that he tried, time and time again, to rip out. Always to no avail.
If he had anything to come back for, it’d be this one thing.
"Marry me," Robby said.
Robby, about to head out for his sabbatical and never return, thinks to hell with it—nothing matters except for the very real, very inappropriate feelings he's been harboring for his first-year resident. So he proposes. And before he can take it back, Whitaker says yes.

Summary
He reeked of antiseptic and all the strong, sometimes devastating, smells of the ER. All of his shift was spent going back and forward between severe traumas, a couple of GSW and the blur of patients coming and going like phantoms.
Or
After a rough shift Dennis can't seem to quiet down the demons of his past.

Summary
Dennis Whitaker has watched the man he loves die for centuries.
From Kingdoms to Battlefields to Plagues to Wars and now to Hospitals.
These different lives always have the same ending. Death and heartbreak. Sadly, only Dennis remembers their lives together, and Robby never does. So when Dennis starts his first shift as an ER intern, he meets the attending physician running the floor, Dr. Robinovitch.
Robby.
The man Dennis has loved in every lifetime. And this time, Dennis is terrified that history is about to repeat itself, or is it?****
“I love you,” Dennis whispered.
“I know, you do,” he breathed.” And so do I.” His fingers weakly squeezed Dennis’s hand.
