    Summary

    "Significant pulmonary contusion and multiple rib fractures, and there's very likely a subdural hematoma in there too,” Garcia says grimly, sounding like she's citing it to herself rather than to anyone else in the room. “We’re lucky it's most probably small, but given her fluctuating GCS it still concerns me quite a bit. Also, besides the shard of metal, the bruising and swelling along her abdomen suggests the possibility of internal bleeding as well, but we need to get in the OR to fully evaluate the severity of it."

    “Jesus King,” he murmurs. “You were supposed to have the day off.”

     

    or: there's a car accident on mel's day off. she ends up at the pitt anyways.

    Summary

    She was sort of a little bit thrilled by it, thrilled by his choosing her, thrilled by the STEMI timing, thrilled by the way the department worked so smoothly sometimes she felt like a cog in a machine.

    And she liked to think she was a cog in a machine because it meant she was useful and purposeful and something needed or even wanted her there. She thought of Eleanor in The Haunting of Hill House, who said, placidly, she remembered because the word was so pleasing and so sad, “I’ve never been wanted anywhere.” She felt very much like Eleanor, haunted by ghosts, reaching out her hand in the darkness and waking up alone. And her intense wanting was a wound she was sure people could see, bleeding down her forehead, a primal warning sign to back away slowly so no one else would get hurt. What about me, she wanted to beg, what about my wound, but she knew that, too, was a childish fantasy. That it would be more work than anyone was willing to put in to get past the walls she put up in the form of busyness and delight and surface-level vulnerability so they couldn’t see the depth of her hurt and grief lurking inside.

    Summary

    “So listen,” Robby says, “I heard you’ve uh, well, that you’re living with Dr. King. Is there any truth to that statement?”

    Frank groans.

    “Yeah, yes, I’m living with her,” he says and Robby gets that crazy look in his eyes so Frank barrels on, “It’s not like that. Robby it’s not,” and Robby doesn’t look like he believes him one bit. “I’m living in her spare room and I pay her rent. We’re roommates. That’s not a crime.”

    or: frank gets out of rehab, gets divorced, and needs somewhere to live. enter mel.

    Summary

    Lucy takes the tutoring assignment because she doesn’t want to be in her house for even a second longer than she has to. She wants to get the fuck away from her parents and the yelling and the shame and the little box of razors she keeps in the far corner of her top drawer.

    She has no idea, when she accepts the extra credit, that it’s going to change her entire fucking life.

    “He can be… grumpy,” her English Lit teacher says, and Lucy winces where she’s standing in the doorway, her books clasped to her chest and her heavy backpack weighing her down.

    “So he’s an asshole?”

    Luna smiles at her and chuckles softly as she shakes her head.

    “No, he’s a good boy deep down. He’s … like a burnt marshmallow, really. All crispy and rough on the outside, but inside he’s just gooey and sweet.”
