    Summary

    "What's going on here, Santos?"

    Trinity whipped her head over, startled to see Dr. Robby. He had his backpack slung over one shoulder just like she did.

    "I, um…" Trinity scoffed and threw her hands in the air in defeat. "Fucking Huckleberry took my car and drove off to Amy's because of an emergency. And then my Lyft cancelled on me."

    Robby nodded. "I can offer you a ride," he suggested coolly.

    -

    Trinity and Robby form a father-daughter relationship over their mutual fondness for Dennis Whitaker.

    Summary

    “Huckleberry won’t watch it,” Trinity said, putting her feet up on the coffee table. “He thinks sports are boring.”
    “That’s not true!” Dennis yelled from the kitchen.
    Trinity rolled her eyes. “He only likes--”
    "Baseball,” Robby finished, nodding in commiseration.
    “Which is objectively the most boring sport.”
    Robby tried to be diplomatic. “It…has its moments.”
    "When.”

    Summary

    “Where’d you get that from?” Santos asks.

    “The food? It’s from Doctor Robby,” Dennis says without thinking. “Oh, wait. I meant- the food’s from Chau’s. We- I got it on the walk home.”

    Her eyes narrow.

    “Was there a team dinner or something?”

    “No,” Dennis mumbles. “It was just us.”

    Robby and Whitaker fall into the habit of walking home together after work.

    Summary

    “Santos recently got into soccer and she’s been pulling Dennis into it,” Robby elaborated, and Dana couldn’t tell you why she didn't question in that moment why he knew that fact. “We’re talking about which team to support, since Pittsburgh doesn’t have one.”

    “Robby doesn’t even have a team,” Whitaker complained, and the lack of honorific was so obvious in hindsight, though right then Dana had hardly questioned when the resident had gotten so comfortable with the attending. “He just roots for whoever is playing against Philly.”

    “City loyalty,” Robby emphasized again, causing the younger man to roll his eyes once more and huff out an exasperated sigh.

    “Sorry, kid,” Dana offered to Whitaker. “I’m with Robby on this one. Fuck Philly.”

    or:

    Three times Dennis and Robby's relationship should've been obvious to everyone around them, and the one time nobody could ignore it anymore.

    Summary

    “I haven’t really been to a wedding where I’ve, uh… let loose. But, hey,” Dennis shrugged, “maybe I’m doing it wrong.”

    “If I hadn’t already agreed to go to this conference, I’d offer to go with you,” Robby said casually. “Show you how it’s done. I’ve got a good track record as a plus-one, too.” Dennis had to say something. To interrupt. To shut this down. But what was he supposed to say? No, you can’t be my plus one, because I lied about my cousin, and there is no wedding, and it seems a little weird to bring a date to a fucking funeral– “Apparently parents love it when you bring home a doctor.”

    And just like that, the bubble popped.

    “I’m not gay,” Dennis snapped.

    He had never hated the sound of his own voice as much as he did right then.

    ---
    Or, Dennis is anxiously headed home for a "wedding" in Broken Bow, Nebraska, the details of which are increasingly fuzzy. Robby's got a medical conference in Omaha that same weekend. So they carpool. Seventeen hours both ways in an enclosed space with no way out except a tuck and roll. This'll go great.
