Summary
“Do you actually have a place to live?”
Dennis has never been a good liar, and Jack Abbot’s unrelenting stare might as well be a polygraph test.
“I’m currently between places,” he admits.
Abbot works his jaw, head tilting to the side as he continues to assess Dennis like he’s a patient in his ED.
“Do you own a car?” He asks, his voice sounding softer to Dennis but maybe it's just dampened by the sound of his own pulse in his ears.
“Not at the moment, no, I’m actually-”
“Between cars?” Abbot finishes for him.
Shame pushes Dennis’s head down. “Yeah, something like that.”
Abbot continues to stare at him -does this guy ever blink?- before he sighs and shakes his head.
"Alright, pack your shit," He orders, clearly having heard enough.
-
Jack discovers Dennis instead of Trinity. Behind closed doors, neither of them is really holding it together, and an unlikely support system is formed.

Summary
Dennis was halfway to the shelter, his heavy rucksack making his already atrocious posture even worse as his back protested continuing the journey, when a car pulled up at the curb beside him. The car was fancy but not so much so that he'd be able to name the make without looking at the logo on the hood.
"Hey," A man called from inside the vehicle.
"I'm not selling." Dennis murmured, shuffling faster down the street to try and lose the vehicle.
"Whitaker," A second more familiar voice called from inside the vehicle, Dr. Robby he realized, and turned around to face the attending and his husband.
Or
Jack and Robby insist on driving Dennis home only to discover he's homeless. Naturally they take him home.

Summary
“Who the fuck did this?” Jack roared, his voice cracking like a whip through the ER.
Nurses froze. A tech stopped mid-step. Even Dana, fearless on her worst days, halted in her tracks.
Trinity stumbled under Dennis’s weight, panic flooding her features. “Fuck—Dr. Abbot…” she breathed.
Jack didn’t wait.
He closed the distance in two strides and grabbed Dennis, hands sliding to both sides of the kid’s waist, hauling him off Trinity and straight into his chest. Dennis sagged instantly, collapsing against Jack like his bones had given up.
Jack’s jaw clenched so tight the muscle jumped. His eyes were pure, murderous fire.
Or where student doctor Dennis Whitaker loses a 6 year old patients and comes back to the Er bloody and supported by Trinity Santos. His two attendings who have been trying to get the student into their bed for weeks now, dont really take it well.

Failure to Thrive: The Things We Wake Up With by Thefriendyouhata

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.

Summary
“Come here, kid.” One of Robby’s hands catches Dennis’s and lands against his sternum, trapping his arm against his chest, while the other stays in his hair, fingers winding into damp curls. Dennis’s attention is everywhere and panicked. He catches a flash of Perlah readying the needle and a desperate sound punches out of him.
“Nope, don’t look at that,” Robby says, using the hand in his hair to force his head back, angling his vision away from the commotion and up towards him. Dennis’s eyes lock onto his, pupils blown wide. “Look at me. Yep, good. I’m right here. You’re doing so good, honey. Just keep those eyes on me.”
The IV tourniquet snaps into place and panic flashes anew in Dennis’s face. ”Robby—”
“I know. It’s just Dana and Perlah. We’re just pushing some fluids, no more drugs. You’re safe.” Out of the corner of his eye, Robby can see Perlah speeding through what has to be the fastest IV placement of her career, Dana keeping her grip on Dennis’s hand to stop him from jerking away. Dana shoots him a glance of warning and Robby tightens his hold. “Okay, quick poke now. Still just us. Deep breath, Dennis. I've got you."

Dennis gets drugged by a patient and has a bad trip.

Summary
“Are you living here?”, Dennis hangs his head.
“I’m in between places, sir”
“How far in between?”
“About a year and a half”
“Where were you living before you did your first rotation here a month ago?”
“The shelter over on Fifth Ave, by UPMC,”

Summary
When Dennis agreed to cover shifts for Dr. Mohan on the night shift, he didn't think he would ever end up here. Kidnapped from the ambulance bay, his head pounding, and having to save the life of a man with limited medical supplies. That was supposed to be it. Somehow, he finds himself snatched up off a sidewalk, in the stables, in front of his home. There were no sacred spaces when you proved your worth.
In the middle of it all, Dennis is confused by the way Dr. Robby and Dr. Abbot are circling him. The way they'd reach out and brush their fingers against his skin. The way they made sure he ate, got rest, and stayed safe. It made him ache with something he hadn't felt in a long time.

Summary
Everything is fine. Everything is absolutely peachy fucking keen.
When the night shift calls Dennis in a few hours early, he goes without complaint. He knows how miserable a shift can get without enough hands on deck. But lack of sleep slowly starts to catch up with him.
Dennis Whitaker does not faint. That would be embarrassing. He’s on the floor for perfectly reasonable, perfectly respectable reasons. He does not need a banana bag. He does not need the day off.
He just needs a little bit of sleep.
—
Or: Dennis has a bad day at work. Robby has Jack pick him up to babysit him at his and Robby’s apartment until Robby gets off shift. When Dennis still can’t force himself to sleep, his Attendings take it upon themselves to tire him out.

Summary
“What do you want to do with him?” Jack Abbot’s voice filtered through to where Dennis was standing in the hallway. They’d planned this. Better to just get it over with. Dennis entered the room, their backs towards him. He got onto his knees by their feet.
“You can do what you like, I won’t argue.” His voice was quiet, scared. Both men snapped around at his words, eyes looking for him before finding him on the floor.
“Oh my god!” Jack gasped out, abject horror written across his face.Dennis Whitaker didn’t make the decision consciously. He’d been homeless for three weeks when it began. He’d been couch surfing, but after being turfed again he was stuck. Bouncing between shelters when he could, but often finding himself in doorways and underpasses. That’s how it began. In a red light district he never knew existed and $50 from a man with mean eyes. It spiralled from there.
Now living with Trinity Santos, Dennis had begun his residency, still he finds himself back there. A habit he can’t kick, the punishment he thinks he deserves. Dennis is trying to survive the war zone in his mind. What happens when his senior attendings realise the length he’s gone to in order to make it here?

“Ready?” Robby asks.
“Where are we going?” Dennis asks as he moves to follow, dreading all the possible answers.
“Home,” he says, and Dennis nearly trips on air, righting himself against the table at the last second.
He hadn’t been expecting that.OR: Robby offers shelter to Whitaker after PittFest instead of Santos.

Summary
When Dr. Robby asks Dennis to housesit for him while he is away on sabbatical, Dennis isn't sure how to react. Slowly, as days pass and routines settle, the lines between helping out his attending (and crush) and making the house he's watching a home seem to blur.
A work in progress!

Summary
Dennis hated it. He hated the looks he got, the look of pity, everything. Okay, yeah, he had no leg. So what? He was perfectly capable of being a doctor. He kept it to himself. Santos knew, and that was it. And that’s what kept him happy.
-
Dennis just has a prosthetic leg, doesn’t know Abbot has one too so he keeps it to himself cause he’s ashamed lowk. Abbot doesn’t know he doesn’t have a leg either and finds out after awhile. Adoption ensures?
Literally a shitfic… no thought put into this.. ok?

Summary
Peter Parker is fourteen when he thinks he can't suffer anymore. He quickly realizes that the horrific murder of his aunt is only the start of his pain.
---
The man didn’t say a word as he slowly dragged the blade down the inside of Peter’s wrist, deep enough that any normal person would’ve bled out swiftly, and he had to fight against every one of his screaming instincts to stay quiet. His blood was hot and sticky as it quickly seeped from the vein Peter knew had been hit. The heat of it was almost comforting when the chair was so cold, but the initial rush of warmth faded as his fingertips began to turn to ice.
For a brief second, Peter entertained the idea of bleeding out, but his body was working against him and he could already feel his insides trying to stitch themselves back together.
“Fascinating…” The man whispered, before turning to scribble something in his notebook.
