    Summary

    “I don’t call you kid because I think you’re stupid. I don’t think you’re stupid. You’d know if I thought you were stupid, because I would tell you. ‘Kid’ is a…” He trails off, free hand tapping thoughtful rhythms on the steering wheel, “…Nickname. Term of endearment. Whatever you want to call it, but it’s not derogatory.”

    Jack holds up a second finger.

    “You have not been taking care of yourself. If you were, you wouldn’t have a low grade fever, and you would’ve called me as your boss or one of your friends to drive you instead of walking to work in the rain after your car died. You’ve been surviving. There’s a difference.”

    or:

    good things happen to those who are found crying in the supply closet by their hot, older, maybe flirty boss-slash-mentor.

    Summary

    “You like 'em?” he asks, wiggling his eyebrows, “I wanted us to match.”

    And Mel nods, her heart threatening to beat out of her chest, because Frank Langdon has purple laces on his skates.

    Summary

    Dennis Whitaker tried to find answers in God. When that didn't work, he turned to medicine.

    And when that didn't work, he turned to the two married attendings.

    Or I heard we were making Dennis Whitaker have religious trauma and I decided to help out.

    Summary

    Jack should have known better than to be surprised. Life had already thrown enough curveballs his way. And yet, when his long lost twin and a seven year-old niece he didn’t even know existed suddenly emerged from the shadows of his past, he was definitely thrown off balance.

    However, a cat always lands on its feet. And this too, Jack would endure and survive. At least he had his husband, Robby, by his side, and Robby’s brother, John. Certainly, between the three of them, they would figure it out. They had done it before, they would do it again.

    But if the road ahead of them promised to be long and arduous, it wouldn't be without its rewards either. Thanks fuck.

    Pope ignored the barb. It wasn’t about him.
    “Listen, I saw you once. Medical conference in San Diego. I… You were with that guy, tall, gangly, he… he looked nice. He looked like a guy who would have kids. Not… not like me.”
    Jack huffed. “You don't know him. You don't even know me.”
    Hearing it hurt him more than he wanted to admit.
    “It's about Lena. It's not about us.” Pope reiterated. “She’s just a kid. She deserves a chance. She needs a family.”
