    O is for Osteomyelitis

    ***

    "You're just missing the parrot on your shoulder," Deb says, eyes glinting mischievously as she and John make their way down the hall. 

    "What?"

    She gestures to his leg, the one that's been bothering him. "You're limping like you've got a peg leg, but you won't be a fully fledged pirate until you've got a parrot on your shoulder."

    John rolls his eyes. Hobbles slightly more self-consciously. "Ha. Funny. Bruised my tibia, I think."

    OR

    Mark and Susan's prank in S1 E10 isn't as harmless as it seems.

    Summary

    John knows what’s coming—it’s both a premonition and a memory. He can feel it in his skin and bones. The lattices of faded scars on his back begin to throb like a warning. Playing out before him is no longer the story of Peter and Reese, but that of a scrawny boy kneeling on the floor of Jack Carter’s study.

    -

    John gets pulled into a dispute between Peter and Reese. It brings back memories from his childhood.
