This is my place to read and reblog fanfics, head cannons, story ideas, ships, etc. Maybe I'll even make some some day / 23 / they/he / header by @argodeon

oblivious omega dennis spends weeks not realising that alpha robby is very, very clearly courting him. dennis had never had anyone take interest in him before, being aware (or so he thinks) that the way he looks- pale, malnourished and just a bit sad- is not something any alpha would ever be attracted to.

so he doesn't connect the dots about the way that robby will grab him and direct him around the ER by holding his scent gland (surely an accident), he doesn't think too deeply about how, ever since his first shift, robby has brought him lunch without fail and seems to brighten up when dennis accepts the food.

he doesn't even realise he's being courted when robby buys him a very expensive, very warm winter jacket. dennis is surprised by it, but robby is a very kind man! he wants to make sure that his subordinates are well cared for so they work as well as possible!

everyone else in the ER knows. dennis doesn't notice how robby bares his teeth when someone else gets too close to him, how robby scented the winter jacket before giving it to him. but everyone else knows. the betting pool has come to the decision that robby will literally have to bite dennis' scent gland there in the ER before the omega notices his desire to mate him.

dennis talks to trinity about the coat one day, asking her if robby got her one too. trinity is at the end of her teather by now.

"no, dipshit! i didn't get a coat! and you know why you did? it's because our attending is fucking smitten with you! he's courting you, huckleberry! he buys you clothes, and brings you lunch every day that he likes to watch you eat! come on, idiot! he wants to mate you, he wants to bite you and hold you down and give you pups!"

dennis is stood in shocked silence. he feels his face grow red and his underwear get slightly slick at the thought.

"I thought he was just being friendly!"

trinity just groans into her hands.

hi! How art thou? So question abt bb tails au, you’ve shown us some ‘06 stuff With Elise… um… how did Silver react to finding out the ilbis trigger was like a toddler? And how’d he fair surviving the post apocalyptic future with tiny fire cat?

Basically Aang and Zuko 😂

He tries to get it over with as quickly as possible, because he still wants to save his future for Blaze's sake. But he just can't do it.

As for Baby Blaze, she was deposited into Silver's life via Cat Distribution System and Silver just. Rolled with it. He figures she's an orphan or a runaway like he is (even though she keeps insisting she's a 'pincess' from another dimension) so he does what he can to just keep her alive in Crisis City. He tries to keep her fire powers on the Down Low because if anyone knew about it they'd think she was a monster too, and he's not about to let some seven year old get hurt on his watch.

Blaze, of course, is a very capable kid, and she thinks she's the one keeping him alive because she clocked him as reckless to the point of self-destruction.

They are both babysitting each other. They are both bad at it 😂

TO THOSE MAKING NATIVE OCS

I see this a lot, no one has actual names, or any reference for names, that are legit Native American, varying among the tribes, for their characters.

Babynames.com and shit like that will give you names made up by white people.

However, I’ve got your solution.

Native-Languages  is a good website to turn to for knowledge on a lot of native things, including native names. If you’re unsure about the names you’ve picked, they even have a list of made up names here!

Please don’t trust names like babynames.com for native names, they’re made up and often quite offensive to the cultures themselves.

Thank you!

Native Languages is a great website. I use it for my fact-checking since it always has reliable links to tribal sites.

This is based on the fic by @pomnixoxo called Broken Pieces on Ao3 y’all should read it 😘 (I wish they hugged okay he needed it)

Having Becca in the hospital at all is incredibly stressful for Mel. Not only is her sister hurt, but Mel has to help Becca manage the overwhelming and over-stimulating environment of the ED. What worked for Mel doesn't necessarily work for Becca (dimmed lights and a closed door to minimize sound: good. But for reasons that Mel still can't explain, Becca can't stand lava lamps). Luckily, Becca's bag had been with her, so her fidgets, headphones, and tablet were with her.

It helped that Dr. Langdon is the one treating Becca, too. Becca had suffered a fall during a game outside that resulted in a pretty gnarly-looking laceration along her forearm. When Becca had been recounting the story - having told it multiple times at that point had allowed her to add a little dramatic flair to the events, now that the scary part was mostly over - Mel stood at the head of the bed, hands clasped in front of her, trying to stave off a panic attack.

(Once everything was said and done, and Becca had ten neat stitches in a perfect row on her forearm, Frank pulled Mel out of the room, ducked his head down, and asked her, "Are you okay?" He'd been holding her hand. He squeezed her fingers. It took Mel a second to swallow and say, "Yes. I'm just worried.")

Dennis who favours one side significantly, to the point of being convinced that everyone knows (they don’t), and they all must hate him for being useless (they don’t know).

Dennis who cannot give himself allowances, because he’s not properly disabled; not like Abbot is anyway.

Dennis whose hearing loss is “self inflicted” and therefore needs to deal with the consequences of his actions (he was six).

Dennis who absolutely will not let himself have hearing breaks in the middle of a shift, no matter how much pain his ears are in.

Dennis who can’t take his aids out at night because he sleeps in shelters, and his hearing is the first line of defence against an attack.

Dennis who recognises the symptoms of an ear infection, but can’t afford antibiotics and the hospital cracked down on “borrowing” medicine.

Dennis who collapses mid shift after a particularly bad bout of vertigo.

Dennis who doesn’t really remember much after this because the floor was suddenly very, very close, and he was suddenly very, very cold.

Dennis, who when he formally attends ASL lessons, realises he’s been taught to swear like a sailor, and his vernacular is entirely comprised of military slang.

Dennis who doesn’t understand why Robby and Abbott are being so nice about being deaf, and explains all about how it was his fault that he lost his hearing (he was six).

Abbot who gives Robby a look, and signs him up for therapy the next day.

Dennis, who comes to the realisation that the factors surrounding his hearing loss are heavily consistent with signs of child abuse.

Robby, who can only hug Dennis as he breaks down, mourning the childhood he thought he had.

And Dennis.

Who finally feels, for the first time in his life, he is not just tolerated, but wanted too.

for the lovely @kittydruthers. Thank you so much to @hartwinorlose and @melika-elena for the beta.

"I need you to be my boyfriend."

Frank was on his third cup of burnt coffee when the slight woman rushed up to his table. It was one cup too many, and the jitters probably weren’t going to help his case with HR, but he’d gotten here too early and had needed an excuse to linger in the hospital’s neighboring diner. A healthy, protein-based breakfast probably would have been a better plan, but Frank was making only marginally better choices these days.
