Summary
Dennis takes a deep breath, then finally picks up the call. “Hey, ma.”
“Hi, duck.” His mother’s voice washes over him and he feels an embarrassing heat rushing up the back of his eyeballs. He hasn’t heard her voice in months. Hadn’t realised how badly he had missed it. Dennis has to swallow around a lump in his throat before he can speak.
“Hi. I- is something wrong?”
“No - well,” she trails off, then goes on, hesitant. “Susan Bradshaw told me there was a shooting in Pittsburgh?”
Or:
In which Dennis struggles with family, Robby struggles with himself and they both struggle to find balance.Series

Summary
“So. About that talk.”
Dennis’ eyes widen. Fuck if that prey look doesn’t make something unhealthy stir in Michael's gut. “Uh, yeah?”
“How’s tonight for you?”
OR: The Talk happens. There's also food. And other kinds of eating.

Summary
“What’ve you got?”
“Uh, just waiting for the hepatic on Mrs. Gupta to come back.” Dennis feels the hairs at the small of his back stand up. Every nerve hyperaware of the proximity. Robby is close enough that he can smell his cologne. Cedar, smoke and something else he can’t name.
“I see.” Robby reaches and swipes on the screen. Then, voice low and casual like he’s asking another work related question, “What's this about a hot neighbour?”
OR:
Dennis tries his best to make sense of his previous night with Michael. As well as his friendship with Trinity Santos. To mixed results.Series

Summary
“Well.” Michael puts his glass down on his coaster. Taps the hobnailed glass with his fingertips, once, twice. Then, as casually as he’s said anything else that evening, “I had a really shitty day at work and I was hoping to work that frustration out by fucking some stranger.”
“I’m a stranger.” Dennis hears himself say.
OR:
Dennis goes to a gay bar for the first time. He meets a handsome stranger called Michael. Smut ensues. Definitely no consequences will follow.Series

Summary
The second he runs his gaze over the new rotation of med students, Robby knows he is utterly and completely fucked. Because he recognizes one of those fresh faces. For the worst possible reason.
The reason being that it was pressed into his bed less than eight hours ago.
Pressed into his bed, because Robby was fucking him.
OR: Robby didn't mean to fuck one of the med-students. But things will be fine. They can be professional. Professionalism definately ensues.
