    Summary

    The nurse rests back against the wall and slides to the floor, her chest heaving. When she turns her ghostly white face up to Peter, his stomach drops.

    This is no petty personal drama.

    “They have guns,” she whispers.

    Time seems to stop even as the elevator rumbles with the promise of motion.

    “Who has guns?” Peter's voice sounds very far away over the high-pitched hum of dread in his ears.

    She sobs. Takes a deep breath. Swallows and points at the door. “There are guys out there. They have guns. They're—they're—they're taking hostages.”

    Peter's eyes flick once more to the number over the door just before the car starts to descend.

    Eleven.

    For a moment he stands there dumbly, abruptly lightheaded.

    Carter is on the eleventh floor.

    Or, the day after Carter's transplant in 15x19, there is a crisis at Northwestern Memorial. Written for BTHB square "revenge by proxy."

    Summary

    Perhaps, in that childish corner of her mind she so often neglects, there's hope that this isn't as it seems. It's all some big misunderstanding, and though John is upset, he's not past the point of no return yet. She can reach him, and hold him, and tell him everything is going to be just fine, and that life can go on in the face of unimaginable heartbreak.

    OR

    Kerry finds John, just as she did years ago.

    Summary

    It was as if they were a single runner. Same pace. Same cadence. Even their breathing matched.
    Andrew could never have such blind faith in anyone.
    How could he possibly ask Neil to have such trust in him?

     

    Or
    AU where Neil is a blind runner, Andrew is assigned as his new guide runner.

    Summary

    "You think Dr. Abbot is being inappropriate with Dr. Mohan?"

    Santos' expression flickered. "Look, I know he's your—you know, your friend," she said in a way that implied a lot more than that.

    Robby didn't engage with that side of it, simply inclining his head. "He is my friend. I've known him a long time. What you're describing would be out of character for him."

    "Men always fucking say that," she snapped, a lifetime of frustration living there. "'He'd never do that; he's a family man. Goes to church on Sundays, gives to charity, pillar of the community.' But it's not like that. Abusers aren't obvious. They hide it. That's how they get in the door." She shook her head at him, like he should be smarter than this. "You're his boss. Of course you'd never see it. It would only come out with people who have less power than him."
