Vampire AU

Whitaker is starting his residency at The Pitt, coming in a little earlier because he’s excited to be back. Robby is already there too, and Dennis can see him and Abbot across the ED, tucked into a relatively quiet corner. At first, Whitaker thinks they’re just talking through cases to prep for shift change.

Dana gives Whitaker a warm welcome and tells him to go check in with the attendings, that they’re both happy for him to be back as an intern/R1. But as Dennis approaches, accidentally coming in from the side to avoid an oncoming gurney, he overhears Robby’s dismayed voice.

“Jack I can’t be falling for him… I’m basically twice his age, probably as old as his father. And not to mention the complete ethical debacle it is to feel like this about your student. I have too much power over him, his career. It’s not right.”

“Resident now, brother.” Abbot smirks.

“Not helping, jackass.” Robby scoffs.

Whitaker, not yet in their direct line of sight, decides to circle back around. Not really because the news has rocked him, but because he’s about to burst out in highly inappropriate laughter. Little does the senior attending know, that the resident he’s crushing on, worried about being more than 20 years older than… Is actually nearly 120 years older than he is.

Dennis loves the medical field, always has, and circles back to it in a new city every couple or few decades. Hell, Whitaker was just another face in the crowd at one of Robby’s first conference presentations in the 90s. Took him a while to place Robby’s face after his first day in The Pitt. It happens every now and then actually, but people see what they want to see, guided by facts of nature they believe are true. No one’s ever clocked him before, especially with the guard rails of avoiding people he with worked closely.
