    Summary

    “I get that.” Dennis tilted his head, staring at himself in the reflection of his drink as Santos took an especially noisy sip of hers. “I kinda feel the same way? Like my relationship with my last name is sorta complicated, mostly because of my parents and -”

    “Shut the fuck up.”

    He paused for a moment, then winced like she had punched him. “Yeah. Alright. Huckleberry, shutting the fuck up.”

    “No, I - shit, sorry, I wasn’t trying to - I will gladly listen to you rant about your parents whenever you want, but - but Mel just walked into the bar. With Dr. Fucking Langdon.”

    The relief lasted only a second before the meaning of her words registered - Mel and Dr. Langdon - and he was cranking around in his seat to take a look. “What? Where?”

    Summary

    "Once a year, like a bad zombie movie, a shambling mass of dead-eyed day-shifters drag themselves to the PTMC an hour early to be lectured on hospital policies and standards.

    It seems almost counterintuitive that people who agreed to years of extra school just to reach residency would consider a lecture to be one of the worst days of the year, but alas, such is the power of hospital administration, cursed be their names."

    OR

    It's HR policy day and Frank is looking forward to having a normal time, playing footsie with Mel and not taking any notes. Hopefully there aren't any surprise questions that force him into the hot seat...

    Summary

    "Mel likes to think that she’s got her head on straight.

    She’s been planning commutes and balancing budgets and organizing home aides since she was twenty. If Mel wants something, she makes it happen. Or convinces herself that she doesn’t need it. But there’s one thing, one golden exception to her system, that Mel can’t help dreaming about.

    She wants a washing machine."

    Mel spends her Wednesdays trapped in a laundromat because her building doesn't have a machine. Frank decides laundry is more of a team sport

    Summary

    “You can get back to your patients. I'll just clean myself up and take it slow, I'm really not worried.”

    “I pride myself on not often being worried, but when we're talking about you, Melissa, I'm happy to admit it."

    Mel tries to take care of herself; Frank makes sure she knows she doesn't have to.

    Summary

    I was such an idiot. I’d let myself relax, thinking that getting to Preservation Alliance had changed things for me. But I’d risked leaving for Dr. Mensah’s conference, and now I’d been kidnapped alongside my least favorite human. Damaged goods, called back to the Corporation Rim for repairs.
