    Summary

    Samira Mohan’s life is divided cleanly into two distinct halves: before PittFest and after it. She will never again be the person she was when she clocked in for that shift. She will never forget the give of her patient’s skull beneath an EZ-IO or the slip of the pigtail catheter between her fingers. Even months later, she’s still struggling to unpack all the ways that day changed her life.

    Perhaps the strangest residual effect is that Jack Abbot sort of, inexplicably, becomes her best friend.

    ---

    Or: Samira Mohan finds her way through residency and subsequently stumbles onto a whole lot more.

    It's straight out of that damn rom-com. He loves her kid, and sure does like her a lot.

    Or

    Summary

    Jack Abbot would say that he is appropriately on edge given that it’s the Fourth of fucking July. It’s only in recent years that he’s even able to be conscious and upright on this date so by all means, he considers walking through Pittsburgh Trauma Medical Center’s front doors sober and on time for shift change a fucking win. His therapist would probably disagree. He would probably say that trading in his long treasured July 4th pastime of locking himself in his cabin in the Alleghenies and sedating himself into the deepest sleep his body is capable of for a volunteer position of throwing himself into active fire and dodging bullets for sport is not the progress he thinks it is. God forbid he picks up a golf club or goes to the batting cages or any other semi-normal, well-adjusted middle aged man hobby.

    Still, when he walks back into the emergency department just a little over three hours after he last left, he can immediately sense the shift in the air.

    or, how it should have gone down when Jack woke up from his nap on the Fourth of July.

    Summary

    Samira knows that Jack Abbot, loopy from concussion and pain meds, will call her his best friend. Will tell her - eyes glazed and utterly, irresponsibly sincere – that she is the smartest person he has ever met; that he will give her anything in the world that she wants, all she has to do is ask.

    Or the one where Samira Mohan asks Jack Abbot to give her a baby. Platonically, of course.
