Summary
”You want a better story. Who wouldn't?
A forest, then. Beautiful trees. And a lady singing.
Love on the water, love underwater, love, love and so on.
What a sweet lady. Sing lady, sing! Of course, she wakes the dragon.
Love always wakes the dragon and suddenly
flames everywhere.”- Siken "Litany in Which Certain Things Are Crossed Out"
***
Nearly 25 years after they'd last seen each other, John takes a trip to Pittsburgh to visit his older brother. He should have known that the Carter Luck would follow him there, and that Mike changing his name wouldn't make him immune.

Summary
He told Mikey he wouldn't touch another pill for as long as he lived, something he's sure the guy has heard from every passing person who's entered inpatient, sat in those hard unforgiving metal chairs. They probably stopped keeping a tally of how many showed back up again with the same solemn promise as if they forgot they already broke it the first time.
Addiction is a constant fight, where the opponent learns how to lose more than they'll ever win. Relapse expected, it's just how it goes.
Frank just has a devastating reason to be so terribly certain he won't.
In the aftermath of a harsh sober reality, Dr. Frank Langdon returns to The Pitt to face whatever mess he left behind while trying not to fray apart at the seams.

Summary
In the show ER, there's an episode where John Carter reveals to his coworkers that he lost his virginity at eleven to a housemaid in her twenties. I took that prompt, put Langdon in his place, and brought in a few friends to react with the appropriate amount of horror upon hearing that.
Plus, a conversation between him and Santos, talking about what happened to both of them respectively, and the terror of being known by your sort of friend.
