depatment of aid,

yeah, i… i have no defence nor explanation for this. i think we all deserve this kind of content tho?? so here u go, spoon pals! these can be platonic or romantic or anything at all! to be fair though, you might want to specify whether you (the sender) are taking the role of a big spoon or a little spoon. like, i’m confident i’ve worded them a certain way to make it clear, but like, i’m only one person?? who’s to say you can’t do some of these as both a little AND a big spoon?? anyway, you know the drill, DO NOT ADD TO THIS LIST!

it was easy for an eight hour shift to turn into a twelve hour shift — that happened more often than not. dana just kind of shrugged and vaguely told people she was off in 'eightish' hours when they asked. sometimes she was off after eight. sometimes nine. rarely ten or eleven. and occasionally twelve. this was different, this was a long one. one of the rare neverending shifts they liked to joke about, but it was never something to laugh about. because if they were stuck in the emergency room for fifteen hours? something bad happened. this was one of those times. and dana was tired. physically, mentally, emotionally just exhausted.

she had a nightshift already scheduled, but the call came in a little big before she was supposed to leave her apartment. and it's not that she got there late ( not really, she always made a point of showing up early for her shifts. ) and when calls like that came in, it wasn't a good thing. it meant a lot of people were hurt. it meant something horrible had happened. been working in the pitt long enough now, to know it wouldn't be pretty. working at the front, putting tags on people, takign a few seconds to asses who could be saved, who could wait, who needed help right away. it wasn't easy and at some point she has to work through that, but things are calming down now. it goes back to a more familiar phase, even if it's crowded with too many patients and too little beds. ( as if that's new. ) playing catch up is kinda what they do here.
