    Summary

    He starts carrying around his old stethoscope from his Army days—the one he’d snuck from his pack to his regular luggage, the day he flew out of Afghanistan for good, because he figured he’d need it again. Or maybe he just wanted a reminder of it, of the fact that he had done it, had gone to war and it wasn’t some elaborate, feverish nightmare.

    Now, it just heightens the feverish nightmare of the fact that his heart cannot beat without his son.

    He wakes up in the middle of the night and checks it—his heart, still pounding in his chest. He wakes up in the middle of the night and checks on Christopher, too. He watches him breathe as he sleeps and matches his breath with it.

    He figures out that when he’s at work, without Christopher, he doesn’t really need to eat or rest. If he injures himself, he won’t bleed until he’s home. His body doesn’t process any sensation or experience without Christopher. He gets pale and cold after a couple of hours without him. He’s nothing but a walking corpse until he sees his son again.

    [AU where Eddie's heart stops beating unless he's around Christopher; or, a study in how to live for yourself.]

    Summary

    "Thirty-eight-year-old male, high-speed MVC,” Jenn, one of their new residents, began to recite, like they didn’t know who this was. Like this wasn’t their Robby.

    Jack felt sick.

    Summary

    How do you tell a dog from an SAS sergeant?

    Soap's been trying to think of a punchline, but so far, all he's got is a dog’s gotta shit in the woods and bury it slightly more often than an SAS Sergeant.

    Summary

    That girl he tried to save — Leah, his brain supplied quietly, Jake's girlfriend — the one he spent four bags of blood and countless minutes trying to resuscitate, that could have been Robby. Their Robby. His Robby.

    And who knew how many bags of blood Jack would have used on him then. Four, eight, he would have opened a direct line from his vein to Robby’s right then and there if it meant bringing him back. He would have crawled into Robby’s chest and forced his heart to start with pure desperation.

    or

    Jack goes to find Robby on the roof.
