    Summary

    Samira wakes Jack from a PTSD nightmare, getting (very mildly) injured in the process. They work through Jack's guilt together.

    “Jack, hey — I need you to wake up for me, okay?” She prides herself on keeping the panic out of her voice as she reaches out and places a hand gently on his shoulder. The second she does it, she knows it’s the wrong move.

    Summary

    “So listen,” Robby says, “I heard you’ve uh, well, that you’re living with Dr. King. Is there any truth to that statement?”

    Frank groans.

    “Yeah, yes, I’m living with her,” he says and Robby gets that crazy look in his eyes so Frank barrels on, “It’s not like that. Robby it’s not,” and Robby doesn’t look like he believes him one bit. “I’m living in her spare room and I pay her rent. We’re roommates. That’s not a crime.”

    Summary

    “My dad died today.”

    She can feel him pause, and start to nod before she finishes.

    “Eighteen years ago. That’s a long time,” she breathes.

    “...Not for some things,” he says hoarsely, carefully. “Not for that.”

    Or: The snowed-in fic where Samira finally confronts her feelings- on many things.

    Summary

    “Work relaxes me, Mohan,” Abbot says, not quite chiding, his tone a shade warmer. He leans his hip against her workstation, ducking his head until she looks at him. “If I’m not at work, I’m trying to find a reason to come back to work. Let me read your article. I’ll be nice to you about it, not just because someone should, but because I can tell you without even reading it that it’s good.”

    “You cannot possibly know that,” Samira blurts out.

    He looks at her with an expression that’s stuck halfway between inquisitive and amused; the left side of his mouth threatens a smile. “Sure I can. I know you.”

    ++

    Abbot and Mohan flirt in the Google Doc comments of her unpublished article. Abbot takes it upon himself to instruct Mohan on how to accept praise.

    Summary

    All that to say, it was difficult for him to understand just how Samira Mohan seemed to sneak up on him. How she managed to take root in his life as if she’d been planted there beside him all along.

    In hindsight, he could see that finding her red-eyed and flustered had been the beginning of something. He had, unthinkingly, taken the leap from professional to personal. Jack hadn’t seen it that way. His mental file on Samira Mohan was long; nowhere within it had he noted that she was the type to cry at work or leave early.

    Jack was worried about her. So what?

    A rambling four year character study examining just how Samira snuck up on Jack.
