Question: Can an Immortal Meet Mortality? by hummingbeeoOo

Summary
Armand picks up the bag and upends it over the bed; he picks out the antibiotics and deposits the eight boxes in Daniel’s lap.
“What the fuck…”
“These are all different — which ones seem best suited to your predicament?”
“Predica— oh my god, man, you can’t be for real!”
Armand frowns. “Daniel, please. This is serious.”
“I mean… it’s really not.”
“Blood poisoning is, in fact, extremely serious, beloved. Now please, tell me, which of these should you take?”
“Uh, these are all pretty strong, I don’t need any of these.”
“Yes, you do.”
“It’s not healthy to take antibiotics for no reason!”
Looks like Armand will have to crush the pills into his food.
Or: Armand, the plagues and the wonders of medicine. And Daniel. So much Daniel.

Summary
The young noble’s eyes flashed. He looked, Bertrand thought, like something from a novel: blunt and haughty and go-to-the-devil. "Vive la France, vive le roi, vive Dieu. And you bloody butchers can all burn in hell."
No answer, Bertrand was sure, could have pleased him more than this. It was like watching a lamb gambol right under the knife. “All right,” he said evenly. “Somebody needs a lesson in diplomacy.”
☙
Revolution comes to the Château de Saint-Georges. Great news for an opportunistic ex-peasant with particular tastes. Not so magnifique for the young lord left behind there...

Summary
Dennis takes a deep breath in to calm himself, but as he breathes out, he confesses, “Trinity made a bet with Samira that I could get anyone in the bar to buy me a drink because I kind of have a knack for it, but Samira chose you, and now they’re watching us, and I’m so sorry.”
His boss blinks at him a couple of times, probably figuring out the least problematic way to fire him or berate him for being so damn unprofessional. He should’ve just said no to Trinity and Samira and killed the vibes for the night; he’d prefer that to whatever Robby is about to say. He can already see the anger bubbling up inside him that’s going to—
“I’ll buy you a drink.”
Dennis stares at him, unblinking. After a few seconds, he manages to ask, “What?”
“I’ll buy you a drink,” Robby repeats, then leans over to pat the bar stool next to him. “But you’re going to have to earn it.”

Or, Dennis tries every trick in the book to get Dr. Robby to buy him a drink and to stay.

Summary
Forced to leave medical school because he could no longer afford it, Dennis Whitaker takes a job as a janitor in Pittsburgh's prestigious PTMC hospital. Though his days are spent cleaning blood and trauma rooms rather than saving lives, working in the ER is the closest he has been to his dream in years. Determined not to let go of his passion for medicine, Dennis finds himself drawn back into the world he thought he had lost forever. But what if a doctor discovers his talent and gives everything to help him. What if Michael Robinavitch finds a new life purpose through a talented young man who seemed incapable of leaving his mind.
Or, a Hucklerobby AU where Dennis is a janitor, Robby being the one willing to give him everything he ever wanted.

Summary
"You aren't misreading things," Robby says quickly. He's fucking this up, royally. "We're friendly with each other."
Dennis cracks a grin. "'Friendly with each other.' Let me guess, you're one of those old men who's allergic to admitting that they have friends?"
"Fuck off!" he gasps through a startled laugh. Dennis is already giggling. "This old man has plenty of friends, thanks." A lie, but Dennis couldn't possibly know that.
"I'm sure you do," Dennis says. "And, you know, thanks. For including me in that category." He smiles.
"Right," Robby says. His chest kind of hurts. He's pretty sure this is what the kids call 'being friendzoned.' "I mean, you're welcome?"
Dennis laughs again, and Robby decides that maybe he can live with being friends if it means he gets to keep making Dennis smile like that.
Robby wants to be a good mentor to Dennis. Maybe even a good friend to him, if that's what Dennis wants (which, apparently, he does). It's just kind of difficult when Robby is drawn to Dennis like a moth to a flame.
And who the fuck is Cole?

Summary
Dennis Whitaker was right where he wanted to be.
Well, maybe not with who he wanted to be. He couldn’t help but try to imagine that the hands that were currently gripping at his waist were those big and calloused hands that squeezed his shoulders a few hours ago.
He couldn’t help but imagine that the smooth cheek rubbing against his neck was instead thick with beard, giving just that right itchy feeling that directed his blood right to his—
Not drunk enough then. He needed more.
Or
Dennis just wanted a night out and he never thought he would en up at the ER he worked at with a head laceration, drunk and stuck under the constant checking of his Attending.

Summary
A violent daytime storm knocks out the power. Robby and Whitaker find themselves trapped in darkness and stifling heat for hours, layers come off, walls come down, and one impulsive, desperate kiss changes everything
How do you pretend something never happened when you can still taste it? As the storm rages and the ER demands their focus, Robby and Whitaker are forced to confront the terrifying truth: the kiss didn’t just break the rules, it broke something open inside both of them.
(recommended: Read Confined Spaces on my profile for better context!)
---
Full-season expansion of 'Confined Spaces'.
Confined Spaces: "When the elevator stalls mid-shift, trapping Robby and Whitaker between floors, it should just be a small, quick, glitch. Instead, a power outage, a head injury, and too much heat in too small a space, force everything they've been pretending not to feel into the open, leading to a breathtaking first kiss”
This story expands that moment into one complete shift. It will explore; what was happening in the Pitt before the power outage, a deeper view into the intense hours they were stuck and will follow the complicated aftermath across the rest of the shift.

Summary
The box looks out of place.
Maybe it belongs somewhere else.
Dennis picks it up, inside there are two faux-leather brown journals.
Dennis just looks at them for a moment before picking one up, they’re pretty.
Before thinking about it, he opens it, and the chicken scratch handwriting that he has associated with Robby welcomes him on the first page.
September 26th, 2025.
I haven’t hand-written anything that isn’t a prescription or residence reports in a long time-
Dennis snaps it close.
Those are Robby’s journals. Personal journals.
Those are Robby’s diaries.

Summary
Michael "Robby" Robinavich just finished his fourth of July shift and is headed on his sabbatical, which he describes as three months on his motorcycle on the open road, but is in reality his carefully planned suicide. It's been a long time coming.
Only problem is, in an uncharacteristically romantic gesture, he asked Dennis Whitaker to house-sit for him. Robby likes the idea of it, of Dennis having his place, being comfortable and taken care of, even after Robby's dead. It's not like he can tell Whitaker he's been in love with him for almost a year. There's no way he'd ever feel the same way, he's just a kid. It's better this way.
When they meet to exchange keys, a series of complications—and Whitaker being a motorcycle virgin—throw off Robby's plan to hit the road and get to dying as fast as possible. But it's just a short delay. What's the worst that could happen?

Summary
“Come here, kid.” One of Robby’s hands catches Dennis’s and lands against his sternum, trapping his arm against his chest, while the other stays in his hair, fingers winding into damp curls. Dennis’s attention is everywhere and panicked. He catches a flash of Perlah readying the needle and a desperate sound punches out of him.
“Nope, don’t look at that,” Robby says, using the hand in his hair to force his head back, angling his vision away from the commotion and up towards him. Dennis’s eyes lock onto his, pupils blown wide. “Look at me. Yep, good. I’m right here. You’re doing so good, honey. Just keep those eyes on me.”
The IV tourniquet snaps into place and panic flashes anew in Dennis’s face. ”Robby—”
“I know. It’s just Dana and Perlah. We’re just pushing some fluids, no more drugs. You’re safe.” Out of the corner of his eye, Robby can see Perlah speeding through what has to be the fastest IV placement of her career, Dana keeping her grip on Dennis’s hand to stop him from jerking away. Dana shoots him a glance of warning and Robby tightens his hold. “Okay, quick poke now. Still just us. Deep breath, Dennis. I've got you."
***
Dennis gets drugged by a patient and has a bad trip.

Summary
"There has to be something you want to come back for. Something you can’t die without doing.”
Robby’s gaze roamed across Dennis's face, tracing the planes and sharp angles of his features like he was trying to commit them to memory. He already had a long time ago. The horrible, aching knot in his chest dedicated to Dennis was a piece of Robby that he tried, time and time again, to rip out. Always to no avail.
If he had anything to come back for, it’d be this one thing.
"Marry me," Robby said.
Robby, about to head out for his sabbatical and never return, thinks to hell with it—nothing matters except for the very real, very inappropriate feelings he's been harboring for his first-year resident. So he proposes. And before he can take it back, Whitaker says yes.

Summary
Dennis always knew that he liked older men, so of course he fell hard for his attending physician, Robby. He never once considered that any of his unrequited crushes on teachers, coaches, or professors would ever be reciprocated, but now at the end of his final year of medical school, his boss seems just as infatuated as he is. Robby’s possessive behavior and obsessional attitude has thrust him into an different world, one that threatens to create entirely new problems for Dennis on the precipice of his career.

Summary
Their relationship only exists within the hospital and any place within walking distance from it. They eat lunch at the sandwich shop down the street and get dessert at the bakery right beside it. They drink beer at the park that's right across from the ER entrance and say goodbye at the bus stop a few blocks down. They share conversations in any spot big enough for two people. But they don't exist beyond that. He doesn't realize this bothers him until he wants to talk to Dennis but can't.

Summary
Dennis has survived five months at the Pitt: night shifts, trauma calls, and the kind of exhaustion that seeps into your bones. For those same five months, he’s been living with Santos. They work together, go home together, and in the middle of the chaos, they’ve become each other’s safe place. Dennis is loud about how much he loves her. Santos shows it quietly, in the small ways she only ever lets him see.
Between shifts and takeout dinners, they gossip and tease their coworkers’ obvious crushes. Santos and Garcia flirt shamelessly. Dennis, meanwhile, is completely blind to his own situation. He’s too busy being confused about his attending.
Because Robby is always there. Too close. Too warm. Hands lingering on Dennis’s arm, at his waist, eyes following him across every room. Dennis tells himself it means nothing. It has to mean nothing.
He is very, very wrong.OR
Through Dennis' and robbys pov, KINDA SLOW BURN, there's gonna be hurt Dennis and Santos, as well as JEALOUS Robby. I'm really bad at summaries.- Language:

Summary
Eight weeks have passed since the tourney at Ashford, eight weeks since Aerion lost his virginity to Ser Duncan. Though he tried to forget him, Aerion finds himself consumed by memories of the strong alpha who shared his heat with him and changed his life forever. When his father insists that Aerion choose a mate, or the decision will be made for him, he comes up with a plan that may be more foolish than clever. He insists that they hold a tourney at Summerhall, and that the winner will be granted his hand in marriage. Though reluctant, Maekar agrees. But for Aerion, the stakes are far higher. Because he knows he is with child, and if he can't convince the hedge knight to fight and win his hand, then he'll lose far more than his freedom.
