Well we sure had a strange one. It started off completely fuckng normal. There were absolutely no red flags anywhere and yet life continues to surprise me.
Our patient came in because she had a crash on a motorcycle. Standard enough! She was at a park specifically for motorcycles, wearing full proper gear, and ran through some tall grass, in which was hidden a metal pipe. Said metal pipe causes her bike to flip, sending her flying into another metal pole, and causing her to get sandwiched in by the bike. Which would be bad enough.
Except. She had a stroke and aneurysm last year. And has stents in her heart. And chronic heart problems. This did not help.
After only a few visits, she stops showing up to her appointments. Why? We ask her lawyer. He doesnt know. We look her up. She's in fucking jail for breaking and entering. We ask her lawyer how the fuck he didn't know his own client was in jail? We read the court details.
She's in jail for breaking and entering.
She's in jail for breaking and entering into the motorcycle park.
She's in jail because she had drugs on her and in her system at the time.
We ask her lawyer how he didn't know fucking anything about this.
He asks if she can go ahead and get free treatment and he's working on getting coverage for her.
She's currently still in jail. No word on her getting bussed in from jail for some light physical therapy.

A clinical role in care homes or losing my clinical skills?
I’m always fascinated when I hear nurses from out-with the care home sector say that care home nurses don’t do as many ‘clinical things’ on a day-to-day basis as their ward-based colleagues. So, what are these mysterious, highly complex skills/tasks that are only carried out in a ward, ones that care home nurses don’t do every day? Let’s start with the fundamental physical health ‘tasks’ – blood…

How Virtual Reality Technology Is Transforming the Medical Education Sector
Virtual reality technology is becoming more prevalent throughout the healthcare industry. Healthcare institutions are beginning to implement virtual reality technology into training programs and patient services to help medical professionals overcome real-world challenges. 
With so many different applications of virtual reality in healthcare, medical professionals need to understand how virtual reality will shape their role as a care giver in the digital age. This article explores how virtual reality technology is transforming the medical education sector and will continue to do so in the future.
Tumblr media
Importance of medical training
Before delving into the many ways virtual reality is transforming the medical education sector, it is important to emphasize the importance of medical training. Training medical professionals is an essential part of the medical field because it helps healthcare institutions prepare their staff for real-world scenarios. 
Medical training can occur in many different settings, but virtual reality technology has made it easier to incorporate training into the normal workflow. With the increasing prevalence of virtual reality technology, it is much easier to integrate virtual reality into the normal workflow. For this reason, many medical institutions are using it for consciousness and motor function assessment training.  
This allows medical professionals to practice the skills they need to obtain while still performing their normal job. By training medical professionals with virtual reality technology, healthcare institutions can help their staff get ready for any eventuality, allowing them to better serve the people they treat.
Medical training using VR
VR offers a unique experience that is difficult or impossible to replicate with other technologies. VR allows users to feel like they are in a simulated environment that seems very real, thanks to technology like haptics and visuals. 
Additionally, medical professionals can use VR to simulate situations that would be dangerous to replicate in real life. VR training can help medical professionals practice skills like consciousness and motor function assessment, where doctors evaluate the condition of the patient. 
Practicing this procedure using VR means that medical professionals can simulate the feeling of inserting a scope in a safe setting. Using VR to train medical professionals involves creating a simulated environment that mimics the real-life scenario they will practice in.
How VR is used in medical education
VR allows medical professionals to train in simulated environments, but the technology is also integrated into normal education at many healthcare institutions. Many universities are beginning to use VR in their curriculums, allowing students to experience scenarios they would otherwise not be able to experience. 
By making use of VR, universities can simulate experiences that would otherwise be difficult to replicate, like performing surgery or being on the verge of giving birth. VR is useful in many different disciplines that students need to understand to become successful medical professionals. VR allows students to participate in virtual autopsies, walk through a patient’s journey with a chronic disease like diabetes, and even interact with virtual patients. 
Students can practice difficult skills, like performing a surgery, virtually, which allows them to try again if they make a mistake without having to start over. VR also allows medical students to participate in simulated situations that would be dangerous or unethical to replicate in real life.
Benefits of medical VR training
VR training has many benefits for medical professionals, including a reduction in anxiety, better students, and improved skills. VR training allows medical students to practice difficult procedures in a safe environment, reducing anxiety and improving their performance in real life. 
VR training will also help students develop better skills, which will make them more prepared for their careers. VR training is also useful for helping medical professionals improve their skills. For example, VR makes it easier for surgeons to practice difficult procedures like surgeries on a patient’s heart. VR training can also allow medical professionals to try tasks again if they make a mistake.
Reduced costs: VR training is often cheaper than traditional training methods, such as in-person simulations.
Increased accessibility: VR training can be accessed by anyone with a VR headset, regardless of their location.
Increased realism: VR simulations can provide a more realistic experience than other training methods, such as 2D video simulations.
Increased engagement: VR simulations can be more engaging than other training methods, such as lectures.
Customizable: VR simulations can be customized to the needs of the individual trainee.
Transforming the medical education sector
VR is transforming the medical education sector by changing the way medical students learn, which impact the future quality of care medical professionals can provide. VR is changing the way medical students learn by integrating technology into curriculums, including the use of VR in simulated environments. It is the best for consciousness and motor function assessment training.
VR is also being used to teach students subjects that would otherwise be difficult to replicate, like how to interact with patients. While VR is being used more heavily in medical education, there’s still room for improvement. Medical professionals need to understand how virtual reality is changing the medical education sector so that they can better prepare for their careers.
Medical training with VR: helping doctors build skills
VR training can also help medical professionals build skills, no matter what stage of their career they’re in. VR training can help doctors in training build the skills they need to become successful. VR can also help senior physicians build the skills they need to stay relevant in their field. 
VR training can help medical students build skills, which will make them more prepared for their careers. For example, medical students can use VR to practice difficult medical procedures, like consciousness and motor function assessment, to prepare for their careers. 
VR training can also help senior physicians build the skills they need to remain successful in the field. For example, VR training can help physicians build the skills they need to practice certain procedures.
VR can also be used to help senior physicians build skills related to dealing with new technologies. VR is becoming an increasingly important part of medical education and training, allowing students and professionals to train under a wide range of scenarios. VR training is a useful tool that is helping medical professionals learn new skills and build on old ones to become better and more prepared providers.

Your orc husband comes to fetch you
A little thing to start 2024. I've gotten lots of requests for more orcs ^_^
General Plot: Your husband finds out you've been injured in battle and comes to fetch you.
Orc (Reven) x GN reader
Word count: 1K-ish
More SFW fics
TW: Mention of amputation, mention of break up, hurt comfort, sfw fluff, size difference
Tumblr media
“Heard the news?” Reven’s client asked, a brave move considering the razor at his throat. 
Skilled fingers never wavering as he drew the blade across his client's chin, he let out a bored grunt, focused on his task.
“There’s rarely any news that hasn't made it through the shop.” 
His client’s eyes twinkled, eager to share some gossip. 
“They say the Dragon Slayer is retiring.” 
Reven’s graceful stroke paused, and he pulled his hand back before he sliced the man's cheek. 
“Oh? I thought they’d never give up their crusade.”  
“Word is the crusade is over. The dragons pillaging Walker’s Keep are dead. The slayer killed them all.” 
Reven took a deep breath before asking his next question. 
“Will they be returning to their homeland?” 
The client snorted. 
“If they ever leave the hospital. They were gravely wounded in the final battle. Thank the Goddess the dragon’s gone, they won't be doing much-” 
The razor clattered to the floor with a metallic clang, and Reven’s feet carried him out the front door of his barbershop without a word to the half-shaved client sitting in his chair. 
He left his crinkled apron in the dirt as he mounted his horse and steered her towards the road to Walker’s Keep. 
“Come on hero, eat a little,” one of the nurses at the clinic urged you, holding up a spoon of oatmeal. 
You waved it away with your remaining hand, your face a miserable, twisted version of itself. 
She huffed, getting annoyed. 
“You haven't eaten in three days! It's only a hand. Some of the people here have lost brain matter, their genitals…You've already killed the dragons. You don't need-” 
A clamor outside the door of your hospital room cut off her little tirade. 
An orderly’s deep voice drifted through the door. 
“Sir! Only family can-” 
“I am family, dammit. I'm their husband!” 
Reven’s familiar baritone made your heart flutter. Still, you were afraid. It had been so long since you'd seen one another. Three years and you hadn't parted on a happy note. 
The door flew open, and there he was, his massive shoulders filling the frame, emerald green skin as rich as you remembered it. He’d changed his hair, no longer cropped around his ears, but long hanging in a thick ponytail over his shoulders. 
He tipped his head to enter the room, dark eyes on you, and his lips twisted around his tusks in an expression you remembered as annoyance. 
“Get out,” he barked at the nurse, and she shuffled past him without question. 
Your voice was only a murmur.
“You came.” 
“Of course, I came. I would have come sooner, but someone failed to send their spouse a note mentioning they’d lost their hand!” 
Your eyes dipped, full of shame. 
You'd left Reven on a cold December night. He'd begged you not to go, cried, yelled, and made you a million promises if you'd just let someone else handle the mission. But no, you had to be a hero, and look what that brought you. You were broken and useless, alone in a hospital bed. 
“Stop thinking so hard,” he muttered, chestnut eyes roving over you, ever analytical. 
He crossed the room and plopped down on the bed, holding his hand out. 
“What?” you asked. 
“Let me see it.”
You stretched your bandaged stump to him, and he fingered it gingerly. For an Orc he had nimble fingers honed by years as a barber. 
“Bah…Just a scratch.” 
He gently placed it in his lap, twisting his body so the two of you were face to face. 
“It's my sword hand. I'll never kill another dragon.” 
His head tipped to the side. 
“I've heard the dragons are dead.” 
“They are, but-” 
“But nothing. You accomplished your mission…sacrificed for the kingdom…It's time to come home.” 
You blinked at him, tears burning the backs of your eyes. 
“You want me to come home? I'm…I'm useless.” 
He chuckled. 
“Nothing's changed without your hand. You've never been good at anything but killing.” 
“Swordsmanship was my only skill.” 
“A stupid one.” 
His lips twisted around his tusks again, but this time with amusement. Large fingers slipped over your cheek, and he pulled your head to him, brushing his lips over yours. His scent and taste were so familiar. It was as if you'd been holding your breath the three years you'd been gone and could finally get some oxygen. When he pulled back, he looked down at you, expression solemn. 
“I wrote you letters. You never wrote back. Did you toss them all out?” 
You shook your head, trying to hold the tears back. The Dragon Slayer crying was embarrassing. You nodded to the small chest where the nurses had placed your belongings. 
Reven crossed the room, opening the box and pulling out a stack of letters tied with a green ribbon you’d come across. 
“I didn’t know what to say. I felt…guilty…I guess.” 
He tossed them on your lap, narrowing his eyes at you.
“Hello. I love you, would have sufficed.” 
“I’m sorry, Reven. I left and ruined myself when I could have been home with you. I could have been happy.” 
“You killed the dragons, accomplished your goal…You aren’t happy?” 
“It feels emptier than I thought it would. I left you alone. Anything could have happened to you, and I would have lost my chance to see you again.” 
He chuckled. 
“I’m not helpless.” 
“I left you alone. It’s unforgivable.” 
“That’s for me to decide.” 
You looked up at him, searching his eyes. 
“You’d forgive me? I don’t deserve it. I got hurt. You told me this would happen, and I didn’t listen. Now I’m just a burden and a fool.” 
He sighed and pushed you to the side, sliding into bed with you before pulling you back into his lap. His nose grazed the column of your neck, and you felt him breathe in your scent.
“Maybe a fool, but never a burden, and being foolish doesn’t make you unlovable. I missed you (Y/N).” 
“I missed you, too.” 
“You weren’t the only fool.” 
“You started dating another bloodthirsty idiot while I was away?” 
“I should have come with you. I was angry at you, but that didn’t last long. Then I was bitter you hadn’t asked me to join you, and I didn’t insist.” 
“Kharma caught up to me.” 
“If you hadn’t lost your hand, would you still be gallivanting over the countryside fighting monsters?” 
“Probably.” 
He buried his face in your neck, and you felt the slight wetness of tears against your skin. 
“I don’t think it was Kharma…I think it was Fate.”
“Fate?”
“Fate spared two idiots unwilling to budge.” 
You sat on those words for a few minutes, the heat of Reven’s body seeping into your bones. You could never quite get warm the entire time you’d been gone, no matter how many furs you donned. You always felt cold, even with the heat of the dragon’s flame singing the tips of your eyelashes. 
“Don’t leave again,” he whispered.
“It wasn’t worth it. I’d read and reread your letters all those lonely nights, wishing I had the strength to abandon my quest and return. I was afraid…I’ve never been afraid before. I’ve killed monsters my whole life and never felt fear, but the thought that you might reject me if I walked through those doors…that I’d come home to find some other lover warming your bed…our home…” 
You felt Reven smile into your skin. 
“There aren’t too many half-feral sword-wielding jocks roaming around Elderoak. That’s what I go for.” 
“Thank you for coming to get me, Reven.” 
“I should have come sooner.” 
“I wouldn’t have listened.” 
“I’m bigger than you. I should have thrown you over my shoulder and taken you home.” 
“And now…?” 
“You could walk…or I could throw you over my shoulder anyway if you like that sort of thing.” 
You twisted your body to snuggle deeper into Reven’s arms. You finally felt warm for the first time in three years. 
“Did the doctor clear you to leave?” 
“They’ve done all they can…they were waiting on me to eat.” 
You felt his chest shudder as he chuckled. 
“You don’t want cold hospital gruel? Spoiled.” 
“Not spoiled enough. I miss your cooking. I want to go home.” 
He hopped to his feet, making you jump as he hoisted you princess-style into his arms. 
“I’ll come back for your things,” he promised as he carried you out the door. 
“Forget about it…It’s just armor and weapons I don’t need anymore. The letters are the only things I want to keep.” 
“Are you sure? They’re a little sad. I missed you so badly…I whined more than anything.” 
“I want them to…remember how unfair it was…everything I put you through to stroke my own pride.” 
He lifted you up to his lips to press a heavy kiss into your forehead. 
“Even if you forget, I’ll make you remember. You left, but I let you go. I’m sorry for that (Y/N).” 
“Then we’re both sorry.” 
Your stomach grumbled loudly, and Reven laughed again. 
“Sorry and hungry. Think you can get down some tavern food? It’s not my cooking, but you can’t wait to eat until we get back to Elderoak.” 
You looked up at him, cupping his thick jaw with your remaining hand.
“In your company, it’s just as good.”

So there's a patient with tracheostomy in the ward I worked at this week and he is in the cubicle that my friend and I were in charge of on Monday and Tuesday.
On Tuesday there was his daughter there and the patient is coughing up phlegm. Usually when the daughter is there she will do the suctioning herself. I haven't done suctioning yet so my friend tell me to ask the permission to do it since she already does it. And the daughter saw me hesitating and she asked if I want to do it so I did it. It turned out.. um not perfect so I was really sorry by the end of the procedure. She was really nice and all but I still feel kinda guilty since I kinda fucked up a bit.
The following days we rotate cubicles so I end up on the side rooms so I was not around that cubicle that much. And today my friend wants to try tracheostomy dressing so she asks me where the part to clean using the sterile swabs are since I did that procedure on Monday under the supervision of our clinical instructor. So we went to that patient so that I can point out the areas. The daughter is there and she asked me if I want to do suctioning again but I'm quite busy so I said no and just come by to look.
I found out later that apparently she never offered my other group members if they want to do suctioning on her father, including the one in charge on that cubicle after rotation. They said that she always do it herself and they need to look for other patients to do the procedures to achieve our target and it's just 😭😭😭😭
I feel so guilty and all after I did that procedure both to the patient and her since I was struggling so bad so for her to specifically offer me to do it again really means a lot hhh My imposter syndrome is really terrible and to receive such trust makes me feel so touched 😭😭😭😭
Maybe being a nursing student is not too bad in the end.

Summary: Matt has a chronic illness that the nurses at his local clinic are all too familiar with. The new nurse in town hasn't had a chance to meet him yet, but what happens when she does?
Pairing: Matt x nursefem!reader
Warnings: Mentions of needles and blood, chronic illness, use of medical steroids, flirty nurse!reader (this is all fiction!), Matt is 20/reader is 23, Matt has a service dog!!
Word Count: Just over 2k
A/N: This is lowkey inspired by the experience I had a few days ago with a flirty nurse while I was in the ER (I'm still thinking about him--had me giggling n kicking my feet n shit like I was in a rom com [this is definitely a story time]). ANYWAY, Matt has PFAPA (my chronic illness!) here. It's usually a childhood thing, but some rare cases like myself don't grow out of it. You can read more about it here, if you'd like. Enjoy!!
Tumblr media
Matt Sturniolo is all too familiar with his local pediatric emergency room. In fact, he’s been there so many times that the nurses have started to treat him as less of a patient, and more of a friend. “Hey Matt!”, “How’s YouTube going, Matt?”, “I remember you!”,  “I saw you last time!”, and the list went on. Some might ask why he still went there at almost 21, but when you had a chronic illness, it was best to see the people who had been caring for you for years if you could. These nurses had been caring for him at least once a month, ever since he was 12, and were usually quite skilled in how to manage the brunette’s comfort. 
Matt had PFAPA, which left him with high fevers and extremely sore, almost strep like sore throats every month. It was a miserable thing to live, and it really impacted his happiness, especially on days like today when he was having one of the worst flare ups he’d had in a long time and both Nick and Chris were unable to come along with him to the doctor. Luckily for Matt, he had his service dog, Emily, with him, but he still longed for a human companion as well. While some people wondered why he ‘needed’ a service dog, Matt’s disability was invisible. Emily would let him know when his flare ups were starting as well as laying on him to soothe his body aches and chills and helping with his anxiety at doctor visits. 
The nurse tech took him into the back rather quickly, running their usual tests of strep, the flu, and COVID. About 98% of the time, they would all come back negative, but the hospital staff liked to do all they could to make Matt more comfortable. Sure enough, the nurse practitioner stepped in about 30 minutes later, a sad look on her face. 
“How are you feeling, Matt?”
Matt shrugged, grimacing as his throat ached when he swallowed. “‘M not great.” he murmured, petting his pup’s head softly as the anxiety welled in his chest. 
“Well, everything came back negative,” she told, a sad look on her face. “We can test you for mono, though. You have a lot of the symptoms for that. That one is a blood test. We’re also going to give you an IV since you’re dehydrated.”
That sentence alone made him want to cry. Despite the tattoos and piercings he had, Matt hated medical needles. They hurt and they freaked him out. Sensing his anxiety, Emily scooted closer to Matt, whining softly and butting his leg with her head. Matt pet the dog’s head softly, steadying himself to get his breath. “Okay…” he breathed, steadying himself. 
The nurse practitioner patted his leg gently, hurrying out of the room to attend to her other patients. Matt began to panic, his breathing rapidly increasing as tears welled in his eyes. He didn’t want any of this. He just wanted them to tell him what was wrong so he could get some meds, go home, and sleep. Patting the bed he was laying on gently, Emily hopped up, curling into Matt’s side. The pooch rested her head on her owner’s chest, subconsciously working to slow the brunette’s heart rate. 
A few minutes later, another nurse and a lab tech stepped into the small room he was in, holding a tray full of supplies. Matt squeezed his eyes shut tightly at the sight, already dreading the feeling of getting blood drawn. Both healthcare workers were very kind, of course, whispering soft nothings to him as they patted his leg and prepared to draw his blood. They promised him that the procedure would be quick and easy, but those words never mixed well with a chronic illness. 
“Your vein rolled because you’re dehydrated. We’re going to have to draw from your other arm.” the lab tech informed him.
“O…kay.” Matt whispered shakily, trying to get his breath and the feeling in his hand back. 
The brunette knew that it was okay to cry, but that didn’t make it any less embarrassing. He was a grown man, laying here in a kid’s hospital room, trying not to cry while they tried to draw his blood again in his right arm. Unfortunately for Matt, the dehydration he was experiencing from his extremely sore throat caused his vein to roll again.
“Oh sweetheart,” the nurse said sympathetically, patting his leg. “We’re going to give you a minute, okay? Let’s get some water and Gatorade in you before we try again.”
Matt just nodded as he was passed a mini water bottle and a cherry Gatorade. He was hearing their words, but honestly, he didn’t care. All he knew was that he was going to be poked and prodded again, and he didn’t like it. Emily snuggled into his side, whining softly and brushing her sandpaper tongue against her owner’s arm, trying desperately to get Matt to feel better. 
“Alright, honey,” the sweet, older nurse stepped into Matt’s room again, holding a fresh tub of supplies to draw his blood. “Let’s try it in your left hand, okay?”
Because chronic illness never made things easy, the third time was still a failure, leaving Matt with an already bruising hand and tears pricking his eyes. Before he knew it, he was being shoved a packet of goldfish crackers, a popsicle, and more water, being informed that he had to eat before they could try again. The snacks felt like swallowing shrapnel, making the boy cringe every time he had to swallow. 
“Hello, oldest patient of the day!” You cheered, practically walking into Matt’s room on a cloud of glitter. 
Matt jumped in shock, petting his dog’s head to calm his racing heart. “...hi…” he mumbled. 
“They called me in for backup,” You explained, a smile on your face. You absolutely loved nursing, and every day at your job truly felt like a gift. You’d graduated from nursing school last year at the top of your class and had been working in the pediatric emergency room ever since. It wasn’t every day that you had a patient who was 20, but you didn’t mind. “We’re getting this blood draw this time so you can get the fuck out of here,” You slapped a hand over your mouth. “Shit, I’m sorry. I hope you don’t mind if I curse.”
For the first time all day, a small giggled made its way out of Matt’s mouth. “No, I’m okay.”
“I see you have a buddy,” You commented. “That’s nice.”
“She helps my…anxiety.” Matt seemingly chose his words carefully, but they still made you smile. It was clear that the boy had a bond with his pup. 
“I’m gonna look at your tonsils first so we can get you some medicine to help you swallow and then we’ll draw your blood, okay?” You asked, wanting to make sure your patient was comfortable with everything. 
At the mention of a blood draw, Matt’s blue eyes widened with anxiety, his body becoming visibly tense. You had become in tune with this, sliding on a pair of pink latex gloves and patting the soft material of the pajama pants on his knee. 
“Hey, look at me,” You murmured softly, waiting for his response. Once Matt had looked at you, you chugged on. “We’re just chilling, okay? I’m not going to do anything yet.”
Matt nodded, letting out an anxious breath he’d been holding. “Okay.” he whispered. 
You grabbed the flashlight to look in his throat off the wall. “Alright, I’m pretty sure you know the drill,” You chuckled. “Open and say ‘ahhh!’...oh yeah, you’ve got an icky throat. That looks like it hurts. Although…did you have a blue popsicle? You’ve got blue tonsils. It’s rather endearing.”
Matt flushed, his ears going red as he nodded. You smiled softly, throwing away the cap and hanging the flashlight back on the wall. You gave the boy the steroidal liquid the nurse practitioner had drawn up for him to ease the swelling in his throat, a blush creeping onto your face as Matt scrunched his eyes up at the disgusting taste, quite literally making grabby hands for his Gatorade. 
“Fuck, that’s gross.” he whined. 
“At least you got it over with!” You hummed cheerfully, in a small aim to make him feel better. “Unfortunately, it’s time for the bad part, but we can make it a little less shitty if you want? Maybe you could play me some music? Something you like, okay?” 
Matt fiddled with his phone for a moment before landing on Dominic Fike’s latest release. You smiled at the lyrics, releasing this was one of your favorite songs at the moment. You prepped the materials needed to finally get Matt’s blood drawn for the mono test, patting his knee gently in an effort to calm his trembling frame as he rubbed his pup’s head. 
“Hey, can I tell you something?” You whispered shyly, setting him up for the procedure. “You’ve got goldfish in your teeth–it’s really cute.” You giggled, your own cheeks becoming red. 
The brunette whined, breathing deeply as you began to draw his blood. “That’s embarrassing.” he grunted. 
A few deep breaths and small, sad noises later, you had finally gotten the sample needed. “We got it!” You told Matt excitedly, placing a Barney band aid across the site. “All done!”
You bustled around the room, making sure Matt was comfortable, throwing away your supplies, and making notes on your clipboard. You helped the boy drink water and got him (and Emily) a blanket, before taking his samples down to the lab to get checked out. By the time everything was said and done, an hour had passed and Matt was asleep against the small bed when you knocked on his door. 
“Hey sleepyhead,” You giggled, stepping into the room. “Nice nap?” Matt fisted his eyes, nodding as you went over his discharge instructions. You always hated releasing patients with no explanations or answers as to why they felt so bad, but in cases like Matt’s, that wasn’t always possible. Your best bet was to make him as comfortable as possible here. “Do you have any questions?”
The brunette shook his head, finally able to speak now that the steroids were beginning to work their magic on his throat. “No, but thank you. You’ve been the best nurse I’ve had all day…maybe even ever.”
You blushed at the compliment, helping the boy stand since you knew he was already exhausted, dehydrated, and lightheaded from having his blood drawn. “Do you need help getting to your car? I actually just got off.” You murmured shyly, glancing at the clock on the wall. 
Despite Matt’s steadiness on his feet and his grip on Emily’s leash, the blue-eyed boy nodded all the same, a quietly flustered look crossing his face. You smiled yourself, maneuvering Matt out to his car with a firm, yet gentle hand on his lower back. Thankfully, the waiting room had quieted down quite a bit now that it was nearing the evening, so no one questioned or pulled you away from walking Matt out. It was a slow trek with your patient being a bit unsteady on his feet, but you didn’t mind. Matt’s presence made you happy in an odd sort of way; you hated that he wasn’t well and that this would continue to happen for him, but you couldn’t stop your mind from thinking about seeing him again. 
“I um…I hope this isn’t weird, but I would really like to see you again. Maybe another time? When you’re not in pain?” You coughed and chuckled awkwardly, rubbing the back of your neck. 
He smiled as he slid into the driver’s seat, rubbing his aching head that was seemingly getting better just by being around you. “I’d like that,” he offered. “I’d like that a lot, actually.”
Matt didn’t end up leaving his trip to the hospital with many answers beside the usual ‘It’s your chronic illness’, but what he did end up leaving with was your phone number scribbled onto a pink sticky note that he had been given in the parking lot.

Hello! I hope you're well.
Can you do a Damian Wayne x Male reader oneshot? Based on the song "Stacy's Brother" by Mad Tsai.
Damian finds out that Male reader is the little brother of [Big! Sister].
Then Damian decides to approach [Big! Sister], in jobs, projects, etc. All this to get closer to Male reader.
Maybe a sporty, extroverted and clumsy Male reader?
I can't get it out of my head that Male reader is somewhat nervous about being around Damian due to Damian's personality and the fact that he is taller than M!r doesn't help.
Also, Can I be anon 🛸?
Male! Reader x Damian
TW: description of yandere mentalities and actions (obsession, possessive tendencies, stalking, etc)

Solitude is preferable to irritants for Damian, so to prove useful enough to be a contact of his is difficult. He’s an heir first and a human second,this is fact, every thought he has is spent towards a goal, and every goal to another's gain - this is the natural state of his operations. Much like a king's pristine puppet he is a glorified prize that must maintain itself. If he meets his darling through a sister or really any family member not of his own, the darling has no backing to stand. Simply and utterly he is beneath nothing to Damian - and maybe that's how he got trapped. 
Contacts from his mother provide lethal abilities, contacts from his father are useful and cut throat -expectation and criteria create his world brick by brick - everything has its place of necessity. A contact form outside this world is easy to push off - it's useless and creates nothing but problems for him - but his Darlings sister is needed and to maintain relations he must come to know Darling - so he takes to this as a bat. The Darling is a lesion, a bleeding pus addled wound in his world of rules and he must get you to heal - it's a clinical and medical perspective. He is his own greatest triumph and Darling are the termites that are picking at his puppet strings. 
Diagnosis comes from close observation- and he needs to be perfect to complete his tasks. You are stalked and detailed without mercy - without decorum, for the first few months you aren't even human. Damian takes a while stalking him, perching on the ceiling and staring through windows - devouring every image with curiosity. Like a dog lapping at its bleeding wounds - Damian tends to him with hypothesis and obsessiveness  - laving over him with his tongue until he’s all that he can taste. Every detail is crucial - every twitch of his muscle under his skin and every time his drops of drool on his pillow in the throes of the Darlings sleep. 
It begins with details and ends with praises and reverent prayers - what used to be details of something he needed to heal became the height of his worship. Damian slips from the king's grasp and becomes a tumbling mess of flash and singing blood  - the para social relationship nurses itself into an infection. 
Sporty? Good, keeping himself in shape is the least of the training that his Darling needs to do in order to stay safe in Damian’s own shadows. Not to say he’d ever let anything touch his darling but it's crucial to keep him in good shape. Paranoia runs in his blood - it's how survival is formed, it's passed on heirloom. 
Extroversion is hardly a trait he is foreign to - in fact it's perfect that his Darling seems to seek out others in social situations. As his other half, his humanity given flesh - it's obvious he would have the skills to express it. 
So what if he’s clumsy? It's simply the innocence of untarnished life showing through - Damian has none left - not even in the hollows of his bones - but his darling can make up for it. To him it's an even trade - like heaven and hell to the spirits that pass. 
After sufficiently gathering all he can from the window - it's only so long before he reaches in. He needs you - from the wound is born an infestation and Damian is sick with it - it fills his orifices and body and mind until Darling infect his brain. He won’t blame you for it - how could he - but you’ll have to take responsibility. 
Your sister is a means to an end - from the beginning of her contact to the time he uses her as a ticket into your life. He blows up her phone, her email, her everything - it's intensive and consuming and he won’t stop even if she answers. He needs you awfully, horribly to the point he might bleed out if he doesn't have his hand on your skin. She tries once to pull away - for her youngest brother's sake - she wakes up with a katana and a whispered warning to her ear. She does not try again. Sometimes you can see her eyeing you from the other side of the room with something like an apology on her face. 
Sharing a gender orientation gives him easier access to you - into bathrooms, locker rooms, and a sort of social intimacy that society gives leeway. It's not overly suspicious as he leaves an arm on you - seeks you out - it's what friends do. You're both boys so there's nothing to be shy about Darling. 
Of course he makes you nervous - ha can’t blame you - he's a trained assassin and you're all but a civilian but he’d never harm you. Never dream of it, even, to harm you would be his death. But it doesn't stop his eyes that are far too familiar for a stranger, nor the offsetting way he accommodates you so easily - as if he knows you better than yourself. As if he’s a worm in your brain and was wriggled so far it's made its home - a parasite. It sets you on edge - pulls at your skin until your organs and bones and he still needs to go deeper.

Author's Note: Hi anon! I don’t actually have a cohesive list of anons but if you want to identify yourself with emojis i'm all for it :)). Also - my writing in general doesn’t incorporate gender a lot but I hope this is ok.
