    Summary

    Armand picks up the bag and upends it over the bed; he picks out the antibiotics and deposits the eight boxes in Daniel’s lap.

    “What the fuck…”

    “These are all different — which ones seem best suited to your predicament?”

    “Predica— oh my god, man, you can’t be for real!”

    Armand frowns. “Daniel, please. This is serious.”

    “I mean… it’s really not.”

    “Blood poisoning is, in fact, extremely serious, beloved. Now please, tell me, which of these should you take?”

    “Uh, these are all pretty strong, I don’t need any of these.”

    “Yes, you do.”

    “It’s not healthy to take antibiotics for no reason!”

    Looks like Armand will have to crush the pills into his food.

     

    Or: Armand, the plagues and the wonders of medicine. And Daniel. So much Daniel.

    Summary

    The young noble’s eyes flashed. He looked, Bertrand thought, like something from a novel: blunt and haughty and go-to-the-devil. "Vive la France, vive le roi, vive Dieu. And you bloody butchers can all burn in hell."

    No answer, Bertrand was sure, could have pleased him more than this. It was like watching a lamb gambol right under the knife. “All right,” he said evenly. “Somebody needs a lesson in diplomacy.”

    Revolution comes to the Château de Saint-Georges. Great news for an opportunistic ex-peasant with particular tastes. Not so magnifique for the young lord left behind there...

    Summary

    Dennis takes a deep breath in to calm himself, but as he breathes out, he confesses, “Trinity made a bet with Samira that I could get anyone in the bar to buy me a drink because I kind of have a knack for it, but Samira chose you, and now they’re watching us, and I’m so sorry.”

    His boss blinks at him a couple of times, probably figuring out the least problematic way to fire him or berate him for being so damn unprofessional. He should’ve just said no to Trinity and Samira and killed the vibes for the night; he’d prefer that to whatever Robby is about to say. He can already see the anger bubbling up inside him that’s going to—

    “I’ll buy you a drink.”

    Dennis stares at him, unblinking. After a few seconds, he manages to ask, “What?”

    “I’ll buy you a drink,” Robby repeats, then leans over to pat the bar stool next to him. “But you’re going to have to earn it.”

    -:-:-:-:-:-

    Or, Dennis tries every trick in the book to get Dr. Robby to buy him a drink and to stay.

Determined not to let go of his passion for medicine, Dennis finds himself drawn back into the world he thought he had lost forever. But what if a doctor discovers his talent and gives everything to help him.

    Summary

    "You aren't misreading things," Robby says quickly. He's fucking this up, royally. "We're friendly with each other." 

    Dennis cracks a grin. "'Friendly with each other.' Let me guess, you're one of those old men who's allergic to admitting that they have friends?" 

    "Fuck off!" he gasps through a startled laugh. Dennis is already giggling. "This old man has plenty of friends, thanks." A lie, but Dennis couldn't possibly know that. 

    "I'm sure you do," Dennis says. "And, you know, thanks. For including me in that category." He smiles. 

    "Right," Robby says. His chest kind of hurts. He's pretty sure this is what the kids call 'being friendzoned.' "I mean, you're welcome?"

    Dennis laughs again, and Robby decides that maybe he can live with being friends if it means he gets to keep making Dennis smile like that.

    Robby wants to be a good mentor to Dennis. Maybe even a good friend to him, if that's what Dennis wants (which, apparently, he does). It's just kind of difficult when Robby is drawn to Dennis like a moth to a flame.

    And who the fuck is Cole?
