Dennis gets accused of having a crush on Robby and he (very unconvincingly) denies this by saying he would never date someone so much older than him.
Robby overhears him and is heartbroken. He wallows for days, thinks about going to the gym or something - maybe Dennis would be able to excuse the age if he lost a little weight? Wishful thinking - and ends up going to a bar to drown his sorrows.
He’s a little drunk when a younger, equally drunk guy tumbles into him, rambling apologies. And maybe it’s the alcohol and the dim lights, but fuck this guy looks like Dennis. Similar hair, same blue eyes, similar build as well. God they even sound similar.
And, yeah, maybe Robby is pathetic, but he’s drunk and wanting enough not to care, so he takes the Dennis doppelgänger to bed, not even bothering to ask his name, not willing to risk fracturing the fantasy for anything.
Robby wakes up with a headache, a sore back, and beginnings of regret when he feels a shift next to him on the bed. He prepares himself to feel the stab of guilt and self loathing twisting in his gut as he squints his eye open, readying to kick the look alike out of his bed as politely as he can muster.
The words get stuck in his throat when the very real and not at all a doppelgänger Dennis Whitaker is stretched out next to him in bed. He takes a moment to feel the shock, before wrapping himself around the kid and going back to sleep.
Dennis having his but i’m a cheerleader moment and hiding in the bar bathroom squeezing his legs together and saying The Lord’s prayer over and over.
It’s just that the two older men look so fucking good tonight that Dennis’ boner hasn’t flagged since they bought him a drink earlier in the night.
He knows it’s wrong to lust after a man and so what does his screwed up body go and do? Lust after the two most respectable men in his life.
Just short of dropping to his knees on the frankly sickening dive bar floor, Dennis is trying his best to keep Jack and Robby out of his mind and not touch his aching cock while reciting prayer.
“Our Father who art in heaven,”
It’s just that those thoughtful eyes and experienced arms and skilled hands are taking over every thought—
Fucking focus Dennis.
“Hallowed be thy name.”
Oh god the heat that runs through Dennis’ body when Jack barks his name through the Pitt,
“Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done, on earth”
And when Robby lays his hands on Dennis it really is fucking heaven.
“Dennis, is that you in there?” The deep raspy voice he doesn’t even strain to place as Jack’s echoes through the stall.
Fucking fuck. He couldn’t even make it to the verse about temptation.
“Who are you talking to sweet thing? Robby and I have been looking for you.” Because of course they have.
Dennis steels himself after a quick mumbled ‘lord give me strength’ and unlocks the stall door.
“Was just talking to myself.” He tries to subtly adjust his hard on without Jack seeing, fails miserably.
Abbot’s got a slick little grin on his face; he’s got their sweet boy right where they want him.
“Dennis baby, you know there’s nothing to feel guilty about, right? It’s okay to give into your desires sometimes.” Jacks front is touching his back now, the older man whispering in his ear.
“Hallowed be thy heaven—uh-hallowed be thy name”
Fuckkkk.
The door sounds and in comes Robby who easily assesses the situation, “Denny baby, relax, just let us make you feel good.”
He’s pushing up to the side of the sink Jack isn’t occupying, effectively boxing Dennis in.
Hands are roaming and his head is spinning. Dennis keeps repeating the same line of the prayer until his mind finally goes blank in response to Jack’s knee pushing apart his legs.
And with that Dennis crumbles, he becomes a dead weight and accepts that he’s gone; tonight he’s strayed towards temptation.
“Attaboy, that’s it baby.” The older duo are immediately rewarding his sinful choice, and God, it feels so fucking good.
Well, no point in Jesus dying if there’s nothing to repent for.

Something something... Marine biologist!Robby who works on merman/mermaid research and Jack as the geumpy old merman with a torn fin from a boat accident who has been in Robby's care for like 15+ years.
Jack has a beautiful bay to swim in now that is still safe as he isnt so fast anymore with his injury, and Robby lives in a cottage next to the bay and keeps an eye on Jack while working other projects and he makes qay too many jokes about how they are growing old together.
He is also very aware that Jack sees him as mate, that the shells and rocks and fish he brings Robby is courting behavior and okay maybe they make out on the regular but like... for science, yeah?
Then either Dennis joins as student and Robby is a little jealous Jack seems to like the kid so much and is quite easy around him (aka not as much of a grumpy ol' fish) but Dennis is a good student who clearly cares as much about merman wellbeing as Robby.
Alternatively, Dennis is a young merman found malnourished and tangled in fishing nets and after the main merman population in the rehab facility was pushing him around too much, Robby decides to bring him to Jack's bay.
Jack complaining very loudly about having to share his bay but when robby says he will relocate Dennis then, Jack is quick to argue it would be too stressful and he better stay... he secretly loves having the younger's company and is vedy set on "fattening the kid back up"
And then smthn smthn smthn... turns out Dennis can get pregnant and is carrying Jack's guppy now
Dennis can do a back flip and has like no fear of heights and this is how the Pitt crew found out.
HR said the day shift needed to build team morale so as soon as it got warm out a lake front Air B&B was rented for a weekend. Dennis was stoked he loved the water. Back home him and his brothers would spend most of their free time at a nearby creek during the summer. He was proud to admit he held the backflip record from the rope swing.
As soon as everyone unpacked and got settled they made their way outside. Mel noticed the 30 something foot tall deck first.
“That doesn’t look particularly safe.” She muttered nervously.
Trinity started grinning wildly. “Let’s go check it out!”
When the pittlings made it to the deck their hearts were crushed. The small ladder that reached to the top was missing several rungs making it impossible to climb.
Dennis started to walk around the deck taking note how it was built. “I can get up to the top.
Victoria looked at him wide eyed. “Are you sure, I mean how do plan on doing that?”
He quickly stripped off his shirt and shoes leaving them at the bottom. “Watch what I do, then copy it.”
Like a monkey Dennis was able to climb to the top using the support beams and questionable methods. By the time he got to the top adult supervision had gathered.
Robby looked at Mel. “Is that Whitaker?”
“Umm, yes. He climbed the side.” She responded not looking away.
“That kid is going to kill himself.” Dana muttered lighting a cigarette.
“I think he’s got it.” Cassie cheered.
From the top Dennis looked at the small group and waved.
“Do a flip!” Trinity shouted.
“Okay!” Was all that was heard before Dennis launched himself off the deck flipping twice before he hit the water.
Everyone waited with bated breath for their favorite farm boy to surface.
Said farm boy came up for air and shook his head like a dog. “I think I can get one more flip in!”

Established rabbot who fuck hard and fast and a little gross, I’m talking grew up heavy in the underground queer scene and exposure to the culture gave them a very liberallllll exposure to kink.
Then they start dating little (kinda sheltered but grew up on the internet) Gen Z Dennis- with his queer culture mainly formed on message boards and tumblr and a very radically progressive view of queerness that’s kinda sanitised.
And then when he watches his boyfriends fuck for the first time, tugging at leather harnesses and spitting in each others mouths he just sits there in his little tight white boxers and socks, cross legged, eyes wide and scandalised and whispers …. Guys do you know you can’t say faggot anymore, it’s like, a slur

When Robby gets back from his sabbatical, he gifts Dennis a simple Canadian maple leaf pin. Robby scratches the back of his neck as he hands it to him in a little mesh gift bag and says, “It’s not much, but I didn’t want to come back without getting you something.”
Dennis thanks him sincerely, cradling the pin and eventually settling on pinning it to his backpack strap right over his heart. He doesn’t realize this fact until Trinity teases him about it the first time she spots it. Still, he doesn’t move it because it wouldn’t feel right anywhere else.
He waits for Robby’s first day back in the Pitt, wondering what other souvenirs he got for everyone else, but the day passes quickly, and by the end of it, no one receives a gift from Robby. Dennis thumbs his pin as he leaves, rationalizing that it was just a gift for house sitting, nothing more.
It’s only two shifts later that Robby spots the pin while Dennis walks into the ER. He gives him a small smile, eyes moving down to the red leaf before meeting Dennis’ eyes and giving him a wink as if it’s some kind of inside joke. Their own thing.
Dennis flushes red and nods back at his boss, trying not to make the moment anything more than it is. Although he desperately wants it to be.
Later that shift, Robby stands next to him at the board, staring up at it as he casually asks, “Do you like keeping pins on your bag?”
Dennis nods. “I’ve never received one before, but I like it. Makes it feel more like mine rather than just some backpack I thrifted.”
Robby hums and stuffs his hands in his pockets lingering for a few moments until Dana calls him away.
Dennis thinks that’s the end of that conversation until the end of his next shift, when Robby hands him another mesh gift bag, this time with a buffalo pin inside. “I wasn’t sure what you’d like when I was gone, so I got more than one pin.”
“Thank you,” Dennis manages to say, trying and failing not to romanticize the moment. “You didn’t have to do that.”
“I wanted to,” Robby replies earnestly, briefly holding eye contact with Dennis before reaching out and patting him on the shoulder. “Good job today, Whitaker.”
Dennis thanks him again, and as soon as Robby leaves, he pins the buffalo next to his maple leaf. He smiles at the pair. They belong together.
When Trinity spots the new addition, she laughs and jokes, “Next time, I’m asking where my pin is.”
Dennis rolls his eyes and shoves her. “There isn’t going to be a next time,” he insists.
He’s wrong.
Over the next few weeks, Robby brings in pin after pin, slowly but surely filling up the entire left strap of Dennis backpack.
It’s only when Dennis has to start on the right strap that he finally laughs and asks Robby, “Are you buying these online or something?”
The older man blushes and shakes his head. “No, these are all from my trip.”
Dennis pins his newest souvenir - a simple white flower - on his right strap and smiles. “You couldn’t have been thinking about me that often,” he jokes, but the words get caught up in his throat, too full of hope to come out clearly.
Robby still manages to understand. He takes a step forward, glancing around the empty ambulance bay before confessing, “I did.”
Dennis glances over the pins, physical representations of every time Robby thought about him while he was gone. “Every stop?” Dennis breathes out.
“Every stop and in between.”
“I thought about you, too,” Dennis confesses, finger tracing over the maple leaf pin. “I don’t have anything to show for it, except Trinity, who will gladly complain about how often I talked about missing you.”
Robby chuckles. “You don’t have to lie to make me feel better, Whitaker.”
“I’m not,” he insists, hand reaching out to latch onto his boss’s arm. “Every day I wanted to know where you were and what you were doing. It’s a miracle I didn’t abuse your number.”
Robby ducks his head. “I wish you would have.” He glances up, eyes crinkling as he says, “Then, maybe I could’ve asked what you’d like instead of getting a pin from every souvenir stand I saw.”
Dennis frowns down at his backpack. “How many more pins do you have?”
“Let’s just say, I see you getting a few new backpacks in your future.”
Dennis laughs loudly, throwing his head back and letting the sound carry through the night. As his laughter dies down, he finds Robby staring at him fondly. His hand reaches out and hooks around the bare strap of Dennis’ backpack, thumb running over the newest pin. “I missed you, too.”
Butterflies spring to life in Dennis' stomach. He ducks his head, trying to hide his blush. "As a resident?"
"Well, I'm not sure if you've noticed, but I didn't get any of my other residents souvenirs."
"Trinity noticed," Dennis can't help but say, making Robby laugh.
When it dies down, he asks Dennis, "Did you miss me as a boss?"
Dennis nods. "Yes," he replies honestly, then stutters, "B-but also as... you know."
"I know what?" Robby teases, still fidgeting with the strap of Dennis' bag, tugging lightly to draw the younger man toward him. "Hm?" he prompts when Dennis stares up at him, face red.
"You know I missed you beyond a resident missing their boss."
Robby tilts his head. "Did I? Last I checked, you had nothing to show for missing me."
Dennis huffs out a laugh of disbelief. "Really?"
Robby just smiles and shrugs at him.
"How about this then?" Dennis asks, looping his hands around the back of Robby's neck and rising onto his toes as he pulls him into a kiss. It's quick and chaste, only because Dennis pulls back to ask, "Is that proof enough?"
"I might need more proof," Robby replies against his lips.
Dennis laughs and kisses him again, aiming to deepen the kiss when the sound of sirens approaches.
Robby reluctantly breaks away and pulls Dennis away from the bay, trying to find a corner with some privacy so they're not pulled back into work after their shift has ended. "My pins suddenly seem much lamer in comparison," he jokes.
Dennis shakes his head, staring down at his backpack. "I love them. They show how much you missed me."
"I didn't get nearly enough to show that."
"How many did you get?"
Robby shrugs and scratches his beard. "I lost track after the first week. You should've seen me try to explain the bag to the Canada Border Patrol. Had to lie that my partner has a thing for pins and wouldn't forgive me if I didn't get him one at every stop I took."
Dennis grins. "Well, that doesn't have to be a lie anymore."
"Yeah?"
"Yeah," he replies, leaning forward again, only to be cut off by the sound of someone obnoxiously clearing their throat.
Dennis' head snaps to the left, filled with relief and dread when his eyes land on Trinity.
"This is a hospital," she says flatly as she approaches them. Her eyes trail over Dennis' backpack, taking in the new pin. She turns to Robby and crosses her arms. "Where's my pin, huh?"
Robby turns red and scratches the back of his neck. "Taken by border patrol?" he offers.
"Uh huh," Trinity replies, fighting to conceal her grin. "Well, I'm done with charting, and I'm heading home. I'm glad you finally pinned him down, Dr. Robby, but I don't want to hear any details about that from you," she says, giving Dennis a piercing stare.
He flushes red, opening and closing his mouth a few times, but nothing comes out.
"Text me if you're not coming home tonight," she says, saluting Dennis and fully grinning at her ability to make him squirm. "And I expect a pin!"
Dennis shakes his head as she walks away. "You don't have to actually get her a pin."
"Don't worry, I know I do," Robby says, taking Dennis' hand. "Want to see the rest of your collection?"
"Yes, please."
Dennis ends up staying the night after Robby brings out five full bags of pins, and Dennis insists that he tells him where he got every one of them. Robby agrees, as long as Dennis gives him a kiss for every pin. He more than happily obliges.
They're both thankful they don't have a shift the next day.
Rabbot headcannons but they’re just an unbearable old couple:
—Robby snores loud as hell in his sleep, mouth gaping and everything. Meanwhile Jack drools so much. Like a leaky faucet, there’s always a huge dark patch on the sheets or Robby’s shirt when the two wake up intertwined.
—Jack watches videos on his phone on max volume. He does at home and even in public places which embarrasses robby as he whisper yells at him to turn down his damn phone.
—Robby runs cold and is always complaining about it. He can have a sweater on, a blanket over him, and the thermostat up and still be whiny. He doesn’t quit until eventually Jack, dramatically, sits by robby and pulls him against his chest to cuddle. And Jack- who runs hot, ends up a sweaty mess under the pile of blankets and his husband.
(Bonus Hucklerabbot)
— they both have reading glasses. And on many occasions will go up to Dennis and ask if he’s seen their glasses anywhere or remember where they had put them only for Dennis to have to walk over to them and pull the glasses off the top of their head. (Robby does this more often than Jack)
