    "You're just missing the parrot on your shoulder," Deb says, eyes glinting mischievously as she and John make their way down the hall. 

    "What?"

    She gestures to his leg, the one that's been bothering him. "You're limping like you've got a peg leg, but you won't be a fully fledged pirate until you've got a parrot on your shoulder."

    John rolls his eyes. Hobbles slightly more self-consciously. "Ha. Funny. Bruised my tibia, I think."

    OR

    Mark and Susan's prank in S1 E10 isn't as harmless as it seems.

    M is for Missing

    **

    John doesn't know he's asleep until he wakes up, cheek pressed to the cold tile, curled up and shivering. He doesn't know he's hurt until he takes a breath, and then suddenly every muscle is spasming with the shock of some undiscovered injury. The back of his head. his nose. His stomach. His chest.

    Where is he? He isn't certain. He's certain of nothing right now except the fact that he is in pain. 

    OR

    An AU of S3 E20 where, instead of Mark being beaten up in the bathroom, it's Carter.

    Summary

    ‘“Nothing. I just have plans that rely on me leaving mostly on time,” he replied amicably.

    “Hmm, to see your sexy boy thing?” She teased, pretending to flip through a chart with any vested interest. The colour Carter turned was one for the memory book.

    “Yeah man. No judgement. Just on a scale of 1-10 how would you rate him as a sexy boy thing?” Jerry joked over his shoulder. Scratch her previous statement. This shade was one for the ages.’

    5 times Carter mentioned his boyfriend to his coworkers in the ER. 1 time they got to meet him.

    Summary

    A missing birth certificate should have been a routine paperwork problem.

    Dennis mentions that he was born at PTMC, and Robby pulls up the linked patient file expecting to find an old birth record.

    What he finds instead sends him spiraling straight into one of the worst identity crises of his life.

    Robby stared at the screen, unable to look away from the name sitting there in black and white beneath Dennis’s birth records.

    Delivering Physician.
    Michael Robinavitch, MD.
