Full name: Thomas James Fischer
Date of birth: August 17 (42)
Height: 6'1"
Place of birth: Stevens Point, Wisconsin
Fluent languages: English, Polish, French
Eldest son, third parent. Or maybe the only real parent. Forced to leave home when he wanted to choose school over god, but couldn't bring his siblings with him. Decided then and there to become stable enough to take them in whenever they got out on their own.
Lost everything to drunk driving while he was away in medical school. Only his father, the drunk driver himself, survived.
Thomas finds comfort in being able to fix; people, injuries, whatever hurt comes across his operating table.
Likes: coffee, energy drinks, good playlists, flannel
Dislikes: irresponsible drinking, speaker phone, cops
Fun facts: rides a motorcycle, allergic to cats but doesn't let that stop him from petting any he comes across, pansexual, BIG fan of stars (can and will point out all the constellations)
Full name: Wesley Γ BradΓ‘in
Date of birth: November 26 (43)
Place of birth: DΓΊn Laoghaire, Ireland
Fluent languages: English, Gaeilge
Eldest of four, a rowdy kid when he was younger. Even as he grew older, Wesley always had a playfulness to him. Always took on the role of cheering up, of making jokes and acting a fool until there was a smile.
He did his best to lighten the spirits of his family when he met a lovely American girl and decided to follow her back to her home in Pittsburgh after they got married. Even took to making weekly phone calls and video chats as he navigated married life and medical school, then as he became a resident and welcomed a beautiful baby girl they called Fiona.
But some things couldn't be fixed with a joke or a smile. And even after trying their best, Wesley and his wife Catherine divorced amicably and split custody of their daughter.
Wesley still lives in Pittsburgh to stay close with his daughter and continue in his position at PTMC.
Likes: classic rock, coffee, spicy food, torturing Fiona with dad jokes
Dislikes: sour candy, shortened text spelling, their former family counselor
Fun facts: has broken several bones in his lifetime (mostly as a kid), grew out his mustache as a joke but actually really liked it so he's gone between the tache or a beard ever since, has his daughter every other weekend but would have her more often if not for his busy work schedule
