    Summary

    Sometimes, very late at night, lying only a wall away from one of his closest friends, he wonders what it would be like to tell someone. Maybe it’s finally time to let someone in on even the deepest parts of himself. He falls asleep to the idea, letting the concept play out in a way that isn’t as tragic as he expects it to be in reality. Disappointment engulfs him in the morning when he knows he won’t do it anyway.

    ..

    Dennis Whitaker was sent away to a wilderness therapy camp when he was sixteen. He's only coming to terms with it twelve years later.

    Summary

    Fucking Whitaker. He has this thing about downplaying everything, and Trinity can’t stand it. First it was him being literally homeless described as “being in-between places,” then his semi-abusive dad “who did his best,” and now this "ex-boyfriend who wasn't nice to me".

    It’s like he doesn’t want anyone to think he’s capable of being hurt.

    __
    Or: Ex-Amish Whitaker is taken advantage of during his early years after leaving the faith by someone manipulative. Years later, Dennis thinks he’s in the clear, but it all comes to a head when his stalker ex makes a sudden appearance. It'll take the entire Pitt department to help keep him safe.

    Summary

    Dennis lays in the bed with a stillness so absolute it feels staged. A ventilator breathes for him in measured sighs, the sound too rhythmic to be human. It almost looks like he’s a kid pretending to sleep in the backseat of his parents’ car, hoping to be carried inside by strong paternal arms. 

    Robby would do anything for that to be the case. Instead, it is sedation that has smoothed away the sharpness from Dennis’s features.

    It is a heart attack that has made him so still. 

    Or,

    Dennis Whitaker fails to clear and gets shocked by a defibrillator. He takes it as a punishment for sinful eyes that can't seem to look away from Dr. Robby and decides not to tell anyone. The ER keeps moving, but Dennis's heart doesn't. It terribly, horribly doesn't.

    Summary

    Before he can stop himself, he picks up the phone. Every ring seems to last for eternity. Please, he thinks, be there, pick up, don’t be dead, don’t be gone…

    “Viktor?”

    His heart jumps. Silco’s voice is muffled, sleep-thick, but oh so achingly familiar. He had not realised until now just how much he missed it.

    “You do realise it is 2 o’clock in the morning?”

    He tries to speak but no words come out. The guilt, perhaps, has stolen them.

    “Has something happened?”

    “Papa,” he finally whispers. “Papa. Papa.” And then all of a sudden he is bawling his eyes out, horrible, heaving gasps and sobs torn from his throat, wracking his thin frame, and distantly he is embarrassed, but he cannot seem to make himself stop.

    Worn down by the crushing weight of (not actually) unrequited love, workplace disputes, past trauma, and the existential dread that comes with being an overachiever in your twenties, Viktor finally breaks. Papa Silco comes to pick up the pieces.

    Returning to his childhood home in Zaun for a long-overdue rest, Viktor must reckon with his past, his future, and the terrifying prospect of allowing himself to be loved and cared for.
