Summary
"Go lay down for a while. You're hardly eating anyways."
He shrugs. "'Not that hungry, I guess." His shoulders are hunched, and he coughs into his elbow like he's been coughing all evening—rough and deep, from the bottom of his lungs. Everyone gets paler as the Chicago sunlight contracts, but tonight he's so washed out she can count the smattering of freckles across his nose.
It pricks warning bells in Anna's brain. She was well acquainted with his strange eating habits, but she can always count on him being ravenous after a 20-hour shift. Someone less perceptive might chalk his haggard appearance to too many double shifts in a row and terrible lighting. But when she looks at him—really looks at him—she sees a heaviness that comes from being more than just worn out.
OR
Carter gets sick. Anna realizes that his family caretaking methods were less than ideal, and shows him the kind of care he deserved.

Summary
All throughout the procedure, Peter half expects Carter to burst in, panting, sweating, full of apologies and claiming some excuse: the El was delayed, he'd overslept, his apartment had burned down again. Peter would brush him off and kick him out of the operating room, then send him to do his scut work and really think about his commitment to this program.
But Carter never shows.
OR
After Gant's death, Peter shuts Carter out. When Carter goes missing, Peter fears the worst and vows to stop at nothing to find him.

Summary
A fuck-up at work triggers bad memories and bad habits for John Carter. In the midst of a record heat wave, Carter goes for a punishing run on his family's property, with terrible consequences. Peter Benton to the rescue.
He puts his fingers to Carter’s neck, and is horribly unsurprised at the weak, thready, and extremely rapid pulse he feels beneath the skin. Tachycardic. Very tachycardic.
A hand on John’s forehead is all but confirmation of Peter’s fears. His face is blazing hot, more like touching a furnace than human skin.
Heat stroke.

Summary
PLEASE READ THE TAGS.
Peter gets the call on a Thursday in late July, mid-shift. He’s on the next flight out of Chicago.
“Is this Doctor Peter Benton?”
“Speaking.”
“Hello, Doctor Benton. I’m calling from the Frederickson Rehabilitation Center in Atlanta. I have you listed as the emergency contact for John Carter?”
“What’s happened.”
“I’m afraid that a few hours ago, Doctor Carter was admitted to the hospital with some very serious injuries.”
“What kind of injuries, exactly?”
“Doctor Benton, he was bleeding significantly from his left arm and wrist. It appears… Well, it appears he made an attempt on his own life.”
Everything after that is a blur.

Medwhump May Day 31- "Stay with me"
There is no movement, no sound except the constant lament of the bent old woman he shoved away to reach his patient. It's a sound he's heard often after bad news has been delivered.
Too early for that, Benton thinks in a panic, snapping at her to be quiet and pressing his ear to Carter's chest. You're okay, aren't you? Of course you are. You're alright, man. You're alright.
He closes his eyes. Listens. Hopes.
Carter isn't breathing.
OR
A sequel/alternate ending to Day 26, Overdose.

Summary
He is a good surgeon. And yet Keaton will not renew his pediatric fellowship.
He is an effective and fair teacher—even Carter backs him up on this to Anspaugh, and if anyone has reason to offer Benton up on a silver platter, it’s Carter. And yet Gant jumped.
He is a good surgeon. And yet he called time of death.

Summary
"If you really want to know, the hot new thing is an app called findr. It's for bougie professionals who like to pretend they're elevated while slobbering all over each other, so entirely your speed."
At that, Robby lost his war with self-control and did flip her off.
Ellis actually laughed. "The vision," she repeated, dark eyes dancing. "findr," she said again, like he might have forgotten. "Go fuck away the raincloud, Robby. For everybody's sake, but mostly mine," she drawled as she sauntered away.

“Oh, for the love of – Officer Stopes, you will remove this handcuff. You will do it now. As his supervisor, you have my personal assurance that Dr. Carter will answer any and all questions you might have when he is healthy enough to do so and until then I will take full responsibility for him. And if you do not do these things, I will have your ass, your partner's ass, and your chief's ass in the mayor's office by the end of the day.”

Summary
“Come on, kid,” someone says, rubbing his sternum with bruising fingers. Dennis desperately tries to swat the hands away, the bone already sensitive from the weight of the patient from just moments ago. “Open your eyes, Whitaker, come on. Look at me. Open your eyes.”
He twitches, his limbs flexing in odd and tight angles as he tries to expel the memory of the pain. He tries to speak, not to answer the question but to ask for help, help, anyone, anyone at all, his mom or one his brothers or the youth pastor who gives him bandages when no one is looking, just, God, please, please—
The best Dennis can manage is a deep gurgle from his throat.
*
When he gets seriously injured after an altercation with a patient, Dennis is forced to reveal parts of himself he would rather keep hidden.

Summary
Things have been good, lately.
Trinity has been good. She likes going to work—likes the thrill of particularly difficult cases, likes the easy back-and-forth she’s starting to build with her coworkers, even likes arguing with Langdon. She likes her little apartment and she likes that she gets to share it with Dennis. (It’s way cleaner, now, and she eats real food half the time. And she has something to do in the evenings other than think about everything she’s lost).
Things have been good.
She should’ve fucking known what would happen if she let her guard down.
~~~
Trinity is cornered on her way home from work. She gets out of it with a stab wound and a whole new wave of old trauma. (And of course, her least favorite coworker is the only one there to talk her down.)

Summary
Langdon drags a hand across his face, not even looking at her anymore, but he still feels too close, way too close. “Jesus Christ.”
Trinity tries to breathe through the pounding in her heart.
“If you don’t take a few steps back, this is about to get a lot more humiliating for both of us,” she says tightly, hoping Langdon can’t hear the slight waver in her voice.
~~~
Getting stuck in a closet with a man who could hurt her is not a scenario which Trinity Santos is prepared to be calm about.

Sicktember Day 19- Stomach Ache
“Robby? Hey, everything okay, brother?”
Robby shakes his head, then realised that's not something Jack can interpret over the phone. Clears his throat. Murmurs a gravelly,
“N-not great. Think’ve- fuck- think’ve got appendicitis.”
There's a muffled curse and a rustling on Jack's end. Robby lets his eyes fall closed, throat bobbing nauseously.
“Mikey?”
“Mm.”
“I’m coming.”
OR
Robby gets appendicitis.

Summary
Robby had just settled his glasses on his nose after doing handoff with Jack so that he could finish up his backlog of charts and go home at a somewhat reasonable hour when Santos stepped up to the corner of his desk with her arms crossed and something approximating a scowl on her face.
“Can I… help you?” Robby asked, slightly unnerved by the sudden appearance and honestly weird fucking energy that he was getting from his intern. But then again, he was often unnerved by Santos. She had this very abrupt, abrasive way about her most of the time, like she had a chip on her shoulder and was terrified of anyone ever seeing that minuscule crack in her armor, but then she could pivot seemingly out of nowhere to be incredibly open and compassionate.
“Whitaker is graduating next week,” Santos said in that clipped tone that she had. Like this was information that Robby should have already been aware of and she was irritated at having to be the one to give it to him.Bookmarked by NullsVoid
