Summary
Dennis occasionally uses Grindr to get a place to sleep for the night. He takes a chance on an older guy, who ends up being kind and wonderful and fantastic in bed. Dennis wishes it could be something more, wishes they could have something real-
And then he walks into the Pitt holding his Chief Attending, Dr. Michael "Robby" Robinavitch's coffee mug in his hand.
A companion piece to my Grindr hookup fic, First, Do No Harm - told from Dennis's POV. Not necessary to read the original story, but it might be more fun to see both sides.

Summary
Never, not in Waterdeep and not here in Baldur’s Gate, had Gale been in possession of many friends. Or any friends, if he was honest. Friendly acquaintances, of course, the ones that Mystra would allow him, and then the coworkers at the grocery store he’d worked at before the library. But he’d never been able to say he had someone eager to spend time together with him, for no purpose but his company.
If everyone knows they’re dating, if they both know they’re dating, then why should Astarion ever have to say that they’re dating?
Or, in which Gale’s pining is no where near as hopeless as his ability to read social cues or Astarion’s ability to communicate.

Summary
It's his very first shift and Dennis has already discovered an issue with his ED rotation.
Every time their attending, who he is expected to report every damn decision to, glances in Dennis’ direction, his breath catches and stomach flutters. And if that wasn’t enough, it gets drastically worse whenever the man speaks directly to him. The first time Robby asked Dennis a question, he’d blushed. Blushed.
Or, Dennis has a heart condition and maybe also a crush. Or two. He's used to dealing with everything alone, until his two married attendings prove he doesn't have to.

Summary
Dennis Whitaker has always been good at holding it together, until he isn’t.
After a panic attack leaves him shaken in the middle of the Pitt, Dennis begins to question everything: his competence, his place, and whether the things he’s spent years burying will ever loosen their grip.
He doesn’t talk about home. He definitely doesn’t talk about the way his heart stutters when Dr. Robinavitch smiles at him, or when Jack Abbott calls him kid with that crooked grin.
They’re married. They’re happy. They’re kind to him. That has always been enough.
Until a patient forces Dennis to face the parts of himself he’s spent years refusing to name. Trauma doesn’t stay quiet, and neither does the anger that comes with it. As old wounds resurface, Dennis is pushed to confront how deeply his past still shapes him and whether healing is possible when you’ve spent so long just surviving.
The Pitt is about saving lives. Dennis is starting to wonder if anyone can save his.
