up on a hill, across the blue lake

secrets behind the closed doors of Robby’s apartment

A/N: I love this dumb little trope, idc how old it is, so I thought… “how can i make this about the pitt…” and now we have this:

One day, Dennis is having a bad day, one of those days where he can't stand the overlapping noises in the hospital and his scrubs itch.

This leads him to behave rudely toward his colleagues, and once home, Robby and Jack scold him.

Dennis starts to argue and starts an argument with Robby (because, really, it seems more likely he's arguing with him than with Jack), and after they've both shouted some nasty things at each other, Jack tries to calm things down by intervening, but when Dennis insults Robby one last time, Jack grabs his wrist, squeezes it, and hisses:

"No one talks to my husband like that."

And then, idk, dead silence at what Jack just said, Dennis realizing he'll always be the extra in the couple and the two husbands trying to make amends.
