    Summary

    Whatever anyone might say about it later, it’s not a rash decision when Jason chooses to put his immortality to the test. He’s spent weeks thinking about it, actually. Weeks where he can’t quite put it out of his mind. He’s even been wearing a heart monitor on patrol for a while now, just in case he has a potential death on the job. But after a month with no close calls, he’s starting to get impatient. And now he has the perfect opportunity to put it to the test himself. Because for the first time in far too long, he’s going to be Bat free for a bit. After that blowout in the Cave with Bruce, no one is going to question not hearing from him for a while, and all he really needs in a few days to be sure.

    Summary

    When Whitaker had started talking about going home for Thanksgiving for the first time in years, he'd seemed so excited. That was why it was such a shock when Robby finally got his first chance to sit down and check his email, and he saw the notification on the new virtual scheduling software Al-Hashimi had set up in his absence.

    November 23, 2026, 10 pm: Dennis Whitaker has accepted Frank Langdon’s shift-trade request for November 26, 2026, 7 am-7 pm.

    OR: Dennis quietly cancels his plans to go home for the holidays. Robby wonders why.

    Summary

    The box looks out of place.
    Maybe it belongs somewhere else.
    Dennis picks it up, inside there are two faux-leather brown journals.
    Dennis just looks at them for a moment before picking one up, they’re pretty.
    Before thinking about it, he opens it, and the chicken scratch handwriting that he has associated with Robby welcomes him on the first page.
    September 26th, 2025.
    I haven’t hand-written anything that isn’t a prescription or residence reports in a long time-
    Dennis snaps it close.
    Those are Robby’s journals. Personal journals.
    Those are Robby’s diaries.
    -
    Robby's mental health journey, from pittfest throughout his sabbatical, told from the perspective of Robby's journals...

    Robby types again;

    [04/13/2028 19:09]: den???
    “I’m calling Dennis,” Robby looks at Jack, “he’s supposed to be here by now.”
    “We need to call people back,” Jack tells him “there’s been a mvc right at the edge of the McCullough bridge over on Chestnut, a bus fell down the overpass onto the highway."
    “A bus?” Robby grunts out, turning to his phone, he can’t help himself;
    [04/13/2028 19:14]: den which bus are you on?

    Summary

    In Robby’s mind, it all starts innocently; innocently enough.
    He would like to think about it as… concern from a mentor.
    Nothing else.
    It's very selfless that and commmendable, the fact that Robby creates a throw-away instagram account to keep tabs on his residents' lives while on sabbatical.
    He doesn’t address to himself that the only person he follows with this account, is Dennis Whitaker.
    -
    Or; Robby doing anything (stalking Dennis on instagram through a weird, empty account) except actually calling Dennis.

    Summary

    5 times Robby catches Dennis on his ring camera, and 1 time he finally does something serious about it.

    OR

    Dennis is house-sitting for Robby while he's on sabbatical, and what follows is several months of increasingly questionable behaviour, long-distance yearning, and the slow realisation that some distances are a lot harder to maintain than others.

    Summary

    Dennis takes a deep breath in to calm himself, but as he breathes out, he confesses, “Trinity made a bet with Samira that I could get anyone in the bar to buy me a drink because I kind of have a knack for it, but Samira chose you, and now they’re watching us, and I’m so sorry.”

    His boss blinks at him a couple of times, probably figuring out the least problematic way to fire him or berate him for being so damn unprofessional. He should’ve just said no to Trinity and Samira and killed the vibes for the night; he’d prefer that to whatever Robby is about to say. He can already see the anger bubbling up inside him that’s going to—

    “I’ll buy you a drink.”

    Dennis stares at him, unblinking. After a few seconds, he manages to ask, “What?”

    “I’ll buy you a drink,” Robby repeats, then leans over to pat the bar stool next to him. “But you’re going to have to earn it.”

    -:-:-:-:-:-

    Or, Dennis tries every trick in the book to get Dr. Robby to buy him a drink and to stay.

    Summary

    They had come to be a highlight of his day, these missives from his boss. They made him feel special, chosen to see Robby’s revival play out in real time, although it was possible Robby was texting others too, maybe Abbot or Dana or Noelle. It had gotten to the point that Whitaker, never the biggest fan of smartphones—of any flashy tech, really—would scramble to retrieve his device from whatever odd shelf or surface he’d forgotten it on the second he heard it buzz. When it was Robby, his expression would involuntarily screw into an amused little grin, scanning the text a few times before deciding how to respond. If it was anyone else, Santos asking about bills, his mother badgering him to visit, he would drop his phone unceremoniously between the couch cushions and ignore the message for hours. 

    But Robby hadn’t sent one in days—six days, to be exact.

    On his way home from Canada, Robby goes radio silent and his favorite resident spirals. When he comes home two weeks before he was scheduled to and finds Whitaker standing half-naked in his kitchen, things get even more complicated. (Or, everyone in Dennis Whitaker's life is falling apart around him, and he doesn't know how to not help.)

    Summary

    He always looks nervous. Less so than he used to, definitely, but there is nothing Whitaker’s growing professional confidence can do for his face. He just looks like someone who is about to faint dead away with anxiety at all times, eyes huge and hair waving timidly over his pale forehead. When he smiles, he looks almost… he looks different, but he’s not smiling now. He’s staring at Robby as though he thinks one of them is about to explode.

    “There were stems on the chest X-Ray.” She handed over her tablet for him to examine, and his fingers visibly tightened around the edges of the screen. “No petals yet, but there was an article in The Lancet last month about delayed blooming in patients with clinical depression. Sats are down to 92 and dropping.”

    “Jesus fucking Christ.” Robby wiped his hands over his face and clasped them around the back of his neck. “Do you know how long it’s been since I saw a case of Hanahaki come through here?”

    Summary

    Dennis Whitaker can work the ER on caffeine, adrenaline, and pure spite. He can charm patients, antagonise coworkers, argue with anyone in authority, and keep moving long past the point any sane person would collapse.

    Dr. Michael Robinavitch sees straight through him. Chief attending, unflappable to nonsense, and far too perceptive for Dennis’s comfort, Robby becomes the one person who refuses to be distracted by Whitaker’s reckless competence and practiced chaos. What begins as curiosity sharpens into something far more dangerous: trust.

    Summary

    Dennis Whitaker is fine.
    Completely fine.
    Perfectly fine, actually.
    Please ignore the nausea, the fever, the tremor, the concerning neurological symptoms, and the fact that he may or may not be accidentally poisoning himself at work.

    The resulting medical emergency, however, does expose one additional problem: Dennis and Robby are apparently the last people in the hospital to realise they are not subtle.

    Summary

    Robby saw the clothes Dennis packed neatly in his suitcase: the crisp button-ups and polos. Dennis had done a load of laundry to wash the piney mildew odor from the storage closet off them, the scent of their disuse.

    While on any given day their washer was full of scrubs, and scrubs alone, Dennis had so many beautiful clothes. Robby watched him now as he dressed for his flight in the en-suite bathroom, silent, with his jaw set.

    Summary

    Robby had a secret that he would never tell another soul.

    He knew it was wrong. He knew it meant that he was an awful, horrible person for even thinking about it. It was a dark fantasy that he buried in the farthest corner of his mind, where he could pretend it didn’t exist.

    OR

    Robby freaks out about his ethically dubious fantasies involving forcing himself onto Dennis, unaware that Dennis is having the same mental spiral.

    Summary

    “I put in 1095, but it won’t turn off!” Dennis shrieks, trying to be heard over the sound of the alarm. He knows that he didn’t get the numbers wrong because he’s staring right at them on the crumpled sticky note. “What am I doing wrong?”

    “Did you push the off button?”

    Dennis looks at the keypad, not seeing anything that says Off. “What?!”

    “Put the code in and push the pound sign after.”

    Dennis does as he’s told, except, in his panic, he hits the asterisk instead. “Shit.”

    “It’s the hashtag,” Robby says, sounding entirely put out.

    “I know what a pound sign is,” Dennis grumbles, hitting the button and noticing the word Off in the smallest font known to man under the #.

    Or, 5 times Dennis sets off Robby's alarm, + 1 time Robby does it himself.
