    Summary

    “I appreciate you sharing that with me,” Robby slowly says, picking his words with care. “Objectively, and with love, that’s the saddest defense of therapy I’ve ever heard.”

    “It worked. How about I buy you a drink after each session? The bar’s close to the therapist’s office.”

    “You’ve got better things to do on your day off.”

    “Not really,” Abbot says, and he smiles at Robby’s surprise. “The nachos aren’t half bad.”

    ---
    After months of ducking and digging in heels, Robby finally starts seeing a therapist. Abbot's therapist. It's inadvisable, sure, but it seems to be working. At least, until their deepening relationship dredges up feelings which Abbot thought had died with his husband.

    Summary

    Sunset Heat (n.) — A spontaneous omega heat cycle occurring later in life, often triggered by a perceived environment of safety, and/or the presence of a compatible mate.

    Jack Abbot hasn’t had a heat in over a decade. He buried that part of himself along with his mate, his missing leg, and with everything else soft and needing. The problem is, there's only one alpha close enough to have caused it. And asking him might cost Jack the one steady thing left in his life.

    Summary

    Robby's eyelids fall shut for a moment as he takes a deep breath. "I've never been with a man before. Okay?" He forces the cheeriest tone that he can manage, sunshine and rainbows coming out of his ass.

    Jack's brows shoot up so fast, he's shocked they don't go through the ceiling.

    "What's that look for?" Robby asks, trying not to squirm any more than he already has.

    He shakes his head rapidly. "Oh, no, nothing. Just didn't expect that from you. I mean, you're the one who went and planted a wet one on me first, and...goddamn, but it was a hell of a kiss."

    Robby had, in fact, done that. He doesn't know if he should lie and blame the beer or not.

    Summary

    And then Santos says — because of course she does, of course they would, of course it’s her fault — “And Langdon would be awful in bed, of course.” Mel blinks.

    She somehow hadn’t expected them to get to Langdon, although she acknowledges it’s quite ridiculous of her to not have seen it coming considering the list of male coworkers they were rapidly striking. It’s just — well, Langdon isn’t exactly just a coworker to her, but also a friend. Someone she sends medical memes to and facetimes and watches bad movies on her couch to decompress, someone who pays for her coffee when she’s not looking and talks her down from the egde of a spiral and has met Becca. He’s — He’s Frank to her, and it’s weird to— talk about him that way. Extremely inappropriate, beyond what HR demands.

    Still, Mel thinks she should defend his honor, and notes, “I think you might be letting your biases influence your judgment.”

    or mel can't stop thinking about how frank's like in bed, and decides she should really just ask him

    Summary

    It is frankly unbelievable that the next time the hospital shuts down isn’t because of incel rage or a natural disaster, but because someone in the pathlab clicked on a link in their email.
