Accidents Happen (The Med Groupchat)
Part Eight - Previous Parts and this one available on AO3
Tumblr media
crickett: it was an accident i swear i didnt mean to i didnt
Nat: @Ethan Choi @connor can one of you take his phone
connor: he’s nonverbal rn
Bekker: Has anyone heard what happened?
Dr. Lanik: According to the paramedics, Crockett’s car was stationary. They were sitting inside, not driving, because it was cold. They were eating and smoking when a drunk driver hit them from behind. They were near the cliff side, so their car fell about ten feet before getting caught on the rocks and first responders rescued them. 
Dr. Lanik: Crockett has a moderate head injury and some scrapes and bruises. Maggie is stable with an open fracture of the radius, closed rib fractures. Sarah has broken glass injuries and a shoulder dislocation. Elsa is the worst off with a head injury we’re still controlling the bleeding of, a partial pneumothorax. 
crickett: didnt mean to
connor: he’s being evaluated for shock right now. it doesn’t help that he’s still high. 
Bekker: Sarah too. It’s making her calm at least. 
Ethan Choi: He’s probably never going to smoke again
FreeWilly: is that really what ur worried about 
Ethan Choi: That’s not what I meant
crickett: didnt see the car
Bekker: We know, honey. It’s not your fault. 
no-ah: is everyone going to be okay?
April: Physically, it looks like it. Elsa is in a rough place but I’m sure she’ll be fine. 
-
Crockett: didnt see the car i didnt mean to
Crockett: was driving
Crockett: foot on the brake 
Crockett: no i was 
Crockett: accident
Other Bekker: my hands have been released from prison
Bekker: (plastics pulling the glass out of them and bandaging/stitching where necessary)
no-ah: do you remember what happened?
Other Bekker: most of it
Other Bekker: its not @crickett’s fault 
Other Bekker: the other driver had a 0.13 BAC on the scene, and crockett wasn’t even driving. he wouldn’t until he sobered up a little 
Ethan Choi: I called his outpatient center and they suggested returning to inpatient for a few days for his safety while he processes this.
Other Bekker: is that what crockett wants
Ethan Choi: It’s what he needs
Other Bekker :/
Dr. Lanik: Elsa is awake!
Nat: That’s good! How is she?
Dr. Lanik: A bit disoriented, but that’s to be expected. Her waking up is a really good sign. The chest tube is in place and we have her on supportive care. 
April: I’m glad everyone will be okay
no-ah: and hows mags
Maggie<3: I’m okay, they’re taking me to surgery
no-ah: good luck !
crickett: iwanndhohiewnalredyitguers
Nat: ???
FreeWilly: I speak high he wants to go home and hes in pain
Nat: That raises more questions than it answers 
Ethan Choi: What hurts?
Dr. Lanik: I’ll come give him another checkup, see if I can’t figure out what’s going on
connor: probably a headache from the head injury
Dr. Lanik: Probably but better safe than sorry. I’d rather rule out anything else. 
Dr. Marcel: head
Dr. Marcel: like gyutar 
Dr. Marcel: sleep?
-
April: Good morning everyone, how are you all feeling?
Queen Elsa: Like I got hit by a bus <3
Other Bekker: it was a four door sedan actually
Queen Elsa: That’s not helpful 
Other Bekker: :)
Maggie<3: I’m doing good, just sore. 
Ethan Choi: I took Crockett to his hospital today, he’s inpatient for five days, longer if he’s a threat to himself or his sobriety
Other Bekker: hot take but did he agree
Dr. Lanik: We spend so much time talking about Crockett
FreeWilly: theres always something to talk about with him you know
Bekker: on another note, we’re hosting a movie party next week if anyone’s interested. Kid friendly for our daughter. Disney movies, no alcohol, lots of food.
Queen Elsa: I’ll be there! I love disney
Queen Elsa: If I’m out of the hospital
April: You probably will be @QueenElsa
connor: @OtherBekker Crockett didn’t want to go at first but he eventually agreed it was best. he’s allowed to have his phone and if he passes three evals in a row, he can check out. he failed this morning’s eval obviously
no-ah: i worry about him
connor: don’t, besides, he wouldn’t like that 
Queen Elsa: how ever will we be stuffed with his home cooking? /s
Dr. Lanik: What’s /s
Queen Elsa: It means I’m being sarcastic or making a joke, since tone doesn’t always come over text
Dr. Lanik: That’s such a good idea? 
Queen Elsa: It really is, and it’s really helpful for neurodivergent and anxious people, like me.
Other Bekker: solidarity
Dr. Lanik: What’s neurodivergent?
Queen Elsa: It describes someone who has an “abnormal” (I don’t think that’s the best word?) development or brain function. Basically it just means that your brain doesn’t function the same way as most people. I’m neurodivergent because I’m autistic. 
Other Bekker: me too because I have ADHD. and Crockett.
Dr. Lanik: Oh. I’m neurodivergent.
Other Bekker: neurodivergent squad
crickett: adhd/ocd babey
Bekker: Does OCD count?
Queen Elsa: Depends who you ask but most people say yes
Nat: I’ve literally never heard of this 
crickett: point and laugh it’s a nt
Queen Elsa: (NT means neurotypical, which is someone who isn’t neurodivergent)
Queen Elsa: That’s not very nice Crockett.
crickett: natalie isn’t very nice to me about being nd so 
Dr. Lanik: Oh?
connor: to be fair Nat you’re kinda rude about stuff that’s out of people’s control
Nat: Why am I being attacked right now?
Other Bekker: you’re not lmao
Dr. Lanik: Let’s all take a deep breath and calm down. 
FreeWilly: That’s a yikes from me
Maggie<3: I’ve never heard of that stuff, thank you Elsa.
Queen Elsa: No problem. I have some good websites for reading if anyone cares.
Dr. Lanik: DM them to me please 
no-ah: I think I might be neurodivergent
crickett: squad goals
Other Bekker: never met a neurotypical friend group, always most of ems got to be divergent
-
Dr. Lanik: Thank you, I didn’t know that there’s a whole… community, if that makes sense?
Elsa Curry: Yeah no problem. I didn’t know until I was in college, and I joined a club for Autistic people like me. It’s really nice to talk to people who understand what it’s like and have shared experience. 
Dr. Lanik: Are there organizations like that for adults? As in, ones for people like me?
Elsa Curry: Probably! You can look it up online and I’ll keep an eye out for something you might like. 
Dr. Lanik: Thank you.

Smoking
Nat: Was anyone going to tell me that Crockett was a parent
Nat: Or was I just supposed to find that out from his mental breakdown today myself?
Ethan Choi: ?????
connor: @crickett
crickett: yeah her name is nunya
Queen Elsa: I know where you’re going with that and it’s not very nice
crickett: neither is having ur coworker tell everyone about ur dead daughter lmao
Nat: I didn’t know…
crickett: well do u see me bopping up to work with a six year old nat
Dr. Lanik: Let’s all take a deep breath
no-ah: insensitive!
April: Noah woke up this morning, he’s still intubated but he’s able to text
Nat: That’s good news, right?
Bekker: Sorry I’m still caught up on the Crockett thing
crickett: why are yall in my business fuck off
FreeWilly: watch your profanity
Dr. Lanik: @Nat @Bekker as you’re both parents as well you should know better than to be so insensitive about what’s clearly an emotional subject. We’re not going to talk about this unless Crockett wants to.
Crickett: @Dr.Lanik i respect u and u only.
no-ah: topic change -- what crusty mother fucker made me bleed into my lungs
Bekker: Med Student
April: This is why I don’t think we should have let a med student do it
Other Bekker: piping hot tea today ig
connor: u consented to med students
no-ah: fair
crickett: anyone in this thread smoke weed
Other Bekker: jhjgfjhgf
Other Bekker: ((yes))
Other Bekker: ((are you allowed to smoke?))
crickett: yes can we hotbox ur car after work
Ethan Choi: >:(
connor: hotboxing doesn’t mean sex babe it just means they smoke inside with the windows rolled up
Bekker: That’s bad for your lungs
Other Bekker: to be fair im trying to make sure i dont smoke around our daughter
Bekker: Fair point
Dr. Lanik: No smoking weed!
FreeWilly: what are you a cop
crickett: call the cops bitch ill have sex with them
Maggie <3: Is anyone else invited to your lil smoking session
Nat: @Maggie<3 ??????
Maggie <3: What? I have a med card, it actually really helps with the physical (and mental!) side effects of chemo. And honestly, getting high with Crockett sounds like a lot more fun than putting CBD oil under my tongue, taking a couple pills, and going to bed.
crickett: mags is welcome but the rest yall can perish
Other Bekker: @crickett you bring the food ill bring the weed
Other Bekker: @Maggie<3 bring your beautiful self
crickett: i love bonding <3
no-ah: homophobic that i wasnt invited
April: YOU ARE IN THE HOSPITAL WITH PNEUMONIA
no-ah: and?
-
Ethan Choi: I didn’t know Crockett had a daughter
Connor Rhodes: me neither. u would think hed tell us
Ethan Choi: I mean, if she’s dead it makes sense he wouldn't wanna talk about it
Ethan Choi: Maybe that’s why he came here
Ethan Choi: Should we bring it up?
Connor Rhodes: u do realize hes still staying with sarah and ava right
-
Other Bekker: UPDATE
Other Bekker: everyone should smoke with @crickett at least once
Dr. Lanik: This is a work groupchat
FreeWilly: i say this with love… baby please smoke a joint it would vastly improve your quality of life and everyone elses
Ethan Choi: You better not be using one of those dab pens(?) they can damage your lungs
[Other Bekker has sent an image to the chat]
Other Bekker: ofc not we’re using a bong with a vagina on it
April: Why are you like this
April: Noah is now showing me where you bought it
April: First of all I don’t need a bong, second of all, why would I want one with that on it, third of all, why does Noah know where to buy genital themed drug products
Nat: I love you but take a moment to think about it
Dr. Lanik: Is there anyone in this chat who isn’t smoking weed
Queen Elsa: Me but I kind of want to try
April: Natalie and I don’t
Ethan Choi: I don’t
Bekker: I don’t anymore
Dr. Lanik: Well I don’t care if some of you are, just keep it out of the work chat please?
-
Doctor Malpractice: Sarah can we actually stop talking about it 
Doctor Malpractice: it’s making jimmy uncomfortable
Sarah: yeah np ill bring it up to crockett and maggie too
-
Queen Elsa: Can I vent?
crickett: go for it
Queen Elsa: All due respect to Dr. Charles, he fucking sucks and treats me like a toddler. I get that he’s trying to do his job, but he does know that I’m literally also a person with anxiety and autism and I guarantee I understand them better than he does. He always makes me feel guilty for trying to help patients, and a couple weeks ago he was acting like I was crazy but I’m not. It just makes me feel like such shit.
Other Bekker: first of all go off
Other Bekker: second of all i know how you feel. he was like that with me too. it really sucks and ive got your back if you need anything at all
Queen Elsa: Thank you <3
Maggie <3: I’ve never seen you use a heart emoji! That’s so adorable
Queen Elsa: And you’ll never see me do it again.
Dr. Lanik: If you want, I can talk to him about it. We’re both department heads, but at the end of the day, it’s /my/ ED and he can’t treat you like that.
Queen Elsa: That’s really not necessary and would probably end with me crying when he confronts me about it so no thanks, but I appreciate the offer.
crickett: just let us know if u need anything hon
Ethan Choi: There’s still leftovers of Crockett’s latest seafood extravaganza so if you want me to bring you lunch tomorrow I can
Queen Elsa: Crockett’s been bringing me lunch, I’m okay.
Other Bekker: we eat like kings now at my house
Other Bekker: the kid adores him too. calls him uncle kett and everything
connor: that is too cute
-
HUBBY: Hey
HUBBY: When are you coming home? Connor and I miss you
-
Dr. Bekker (Brunette): hey maggie elsa and i are gonna go to the beach and get high tonight wanna come
Crockett: hell yeah
-
Dr. Lanik: @EthanChoi @connor @Bekker come to the ED immediately. @April find Maggie and Elsa’s emergency contacts. 
Dr. Lanik: EMT just brought in victims of a car crash. Maggie, Elsa, Sarah, and Crockett
Nat: Oh my God.

Dr. Lanik: What’s the dress code
Other Bekker: casual if you wear a suit ill kill you
Ethan Choi: When?

Maggie<3: Wait who’s sober other than Crockett?
Dr. Lanik: Me

Ethan Choi: This is such a fun conversation. Let’s not have it.
April: So back to the party… details!
Other Bekker: ill send the address in a bit but its gonna be potluck style. Everybody brings food. itll be pretty casual so dont be that asshole (@Dr.Lanik). starting at six ish and ending at maybe 10 or 11 depending on how tired we all are
Ethan Choi: Crockett’s program usually ends at like 5:30 so we might be a little late?
Other Bekker: ok sounds good. how is he btw
Ethan Choi: Pretty well. He’s outpatient for another few weeks and then his doctors are going to discuss long term options. Hopefully he’ll be back at work soon, too
April: Tell him we’re proud of him?
Ethan Choi: As soon as I pick him up tonight.
-
Sarah: are we telling them tonight?
Wifey: I was thinking so, yes. I mean, we have our house, and the paperwork went through.
Sarah: im so excited
Wifey: Me too, honey
-
Nat: Not to alarm anybody but whoever’s in charge of Connor right now, come to treatment 4
FreeWilly: love the implication that we take turns babysitting him
Dr. Lanik: We kind of do. I think it’s Maggie’s turn.
Maggie<3: I’m not at work. Who’s next in line?
April: @QueenElsa
Queen Elsa: Fine
connor: im a big boy i can take care of myself
Nat: You literally have a concussion
Ethan Choi: Why?
Nat: He fainted after a surgery. His sugar is low on the finger prick and he said he hasn’t had any water since his shift started
Dr. Lanik: @connor We’ve talked about this
connor: ok boomer
Dr. Lanik: @connor Stop calling me a boomer! We’re the same age!
connor: ok
connor: boomer
Bekker: Can you grow up @connor
connor: no
Queen Elsa: Update for everyone, Connor is getting a CT. He’s eating a Snickers bar right now and we’re pushing fluids
FreeWilly: youre not you when youre hungry
Dr. Lanik: @Bekker @OtherBekker What day will your housewarming party be? My daughter’s birthday is Friday.
Maggie<3: IM SORRY YOUR WHAT
Other Bekker: ?????
Bekker: We were thinking Saturday.
April: @FreeWilly Did you know about this???????
FreeWilly: uh yeah?
no-ah: Why did none of us know you had a daughter?
Dr. Lanik: I just don’t see how it’s any of your business.
Nat: How old is she? Who’s her mother? What school does she go to? How did we go this long without knowing?
[Dr. Lanik has sent an image to the chat]
Dr. Lanik: This is Emma, she’s almost eleven, and this is the most information any of you will ever be getting about her.
Ethan Choi: Well this has been a wild ride
Other Bekker: now taking bets on how crockett will react. $10 says he thinks its a joke
no-ah: Coward. He knows everything. $20 says he already knew.
Other Bekker: youre on
Queen Elsa: ...Anyways, Connor’s CT came back alright. It’s a minor concussion; he’ll be fine soon. 
Maggie<3: That’s good
Dr. Lanik: @FreeWilly and I will look after him.
Ethan Choi: Just picked up Crockett, he says hi. He also has letters for each of you as part of his process
Nat: That’s sweet
Ethan Choi: I have been assured none of them contain nudes
Other Bekker: thank g-d
Ethan Choi: I’ll be giving them to you all at work.
Ethan Choi: Crockett will be cooking something I won’t even try to pronounce for the housewarming party
Other Bekker: his cooking is all so good...
no-ah: It slaps
Queen Elsa: Is it that pasta thing??? With the crawfish????
Ethan Choi: Honestly, I don’t know.
Nat: Owen and I are bringing cookies.
Bekker: Important question, @Dr.Lanik… will Emma be coming?
Dr. Lanik: No. I don’t want her near any of you.
connor: hes got a point
Maggie<3: Have you never, in your life, had to bring her to a doctor?
Dr. Lanik: We use East Mercy so that you all keep your noses out of my life.
FreeWilly: ouch
April: I mean, if I had a daughter, I wouldn’t want any of you near her either.
Nat: Harsh, I trust you with my son
April: You’re different.
Bekker: Do I hear wedding bells?
Nat: @April What if we kissed in the doctor’s lounge… and we’re both girls?
Nat: Haha just kidding
Nat: Unless…?
April: Did you just hit on me with a meme
Nat: Did it work?
Other Bekker: another win for the gaydies
Other Bekker: THEY BOTH JUST WENT INTO THE DOCTORS LOUNGE JHGFKHFRH
Ethan Choi: Crockett laughed 
connor: do you read these messages to him?
Ethan Choi: Sometimes. He likes to be in the loop.
FreeWilly: hot take but. we could just add him back to the chat?
Ethan Choi: He’s not ready for that yet, but he does like to be updated on your lives and one-on-one texting is stressful for him
Other Bekker: we spend more time talking about crockett now than we did when he was in the chat
no-ah: Sweet I have my Crockett letter
Ethan Choi: I'll put them in your lockers. My shift is starting so I'm turning my phone to silent. 
Other Bekker: Crockett Time
Bekker: Did he write me one?
Other Bekker: @Bekker both mine and yours are in my locker i think. one is for "blonde bekker" and one is for "brunette bekker"
no-ah: That's what he has your contacts saved as 
Queen Elsa: Mine is just a smiley face sticker in an envelope?
Other Bekker: jsyk we should probably keep these private! this is important to him
Maggie<3: I'm so excited to see him again on Saturday, I've missed him.
FreeWilly: He's been busy. I think his program is like eight to five every day but Sunday
Nat: What's that even like?
Other Bekker: they have an in house aa group that meets a few times a day and theres a ton of other support like therapy to get to the root of the problem. i mean before he got sober the first time he was self medicating

Curry (Not Dr.): Hey, it's Elsa Curry from Med. Sarah gave me your number. I was just wondering why you gave me a sticker?
Crockett: dont u put them on the inside of your binder? the one u put ur case notes in at the end of ur shift 
Curry (Not Dr.): How did you know that?
Crockett: u pull ur binder out when ur stressed to reference old cases. i thot u might like another sticker so u know ur not in this alone
Crockett: :)

[crickett has renamed the chat "dick bros"]
crickett: @connor do u wanna fuck again this weekend lmao
connor: ???
connor: i thought that was a one time thing
Ethan Choi: It doesn't have to be. 
-
Maggie<3: @Bekker @OtherBekker Sorry I'm running a little behind! I couldn't find my keys
Bekker: No harm, no foul!
[Bekker has sent an image to the chat]
Bekker: Definitely hurry, we're having so much fun!
-
Crockett: baby
HUBBY: I'm sitting right beside you.
Crockett: ik but im feeling kinda overwhelmed 
HUBBY: Do you want to go home?
Crockett: i think i just need air will you cover for me if someone comes looking
-
Other Bekker: THANK YOU @Maggie<3 FOR ACTUALLY HELPING CLEAN UP 
FreeWilly: sorry!
connor: sorry ahhhhhh i didnt think about it 
Nat: Congrats again, you two, this is huge!
April: ^^
no-ah: Will we get to meet her, or will she be a secret like Laniks daughter?
Bekker: You'll all definitely get to meet her, but let's not do so much at once? Adjusting to a new home is hard, and from what the adoption agency tells us, she's had a rough go of it.
no-ah: Of course! 
Queen Elsa: No little girl could have a better home! Congratulations on your daughter and I wish you really good luck. If you ever need help, we're all here!
Dr. Lanik: She's about eight, right?
Bekker: Yes
Dr. Lanik: If she needs help adjusting, let me know, and maybe Emma and I can help. She was about that age when I adopted her.
connor: the Lanik lore we are getting today omg
Dr. Lanik: You'll both be great parents, and @OtherBekker don't hesitate to let me know if you need extra time off. This is a big deal and you shouldn't have to stress about work when you should be worrying about your family. @Bekker I'll also ask Dr. Latham to be lenient with you as well.
Other Bekker: thank you from both of us <3
connor: who knew lanik had a heart.

crickett: oh?
Other Bekker: shh too loud
Ethan Choi: Tell us the secret
[Maggie<3 has added “Dr. Lanik” to the chat]
Dr. Lanik: I specifically asked you not to put me in this chat again.
Maggie<3: It’s good for you
[Maggie<3 has added “no-ah” to the chat]
crickett: NOW THAT THE GANGS ALL HERE
crickett: CRAWFISH BOIL ON FRIDAY
April: Nope.
crickett: u know how much crawfish is coming to my house @April? do u have any clue?
Nat: You have to give more notice about these things.
crickett: u didnt come last time so now you have to 
Ethan Choi: All of you are coming because if I have to spend the week eating leftover crawfish, you’re all dead to me.
no-ah: Ditto. Crockett brings me food every day and I need variety
Ethan Choi: @crickett ????
crickett: if i dont then he forgets to eat :(( i bring food for @QueenElsa and @OtherBekker pretty often too. my kids now.
Other Bekker: dad?

Ethan Choi: You don’t even make lunch for me!
FreeWilly: oof

Dr. Lanik: You kind of started it.

FreeWilly: @Nat gotchu

FreeWilly: Lanik just called Crockett out of the ED
Bekker: Oh no
Bekker: I really didn’t mean to cause trouble is everything okay??
Ethan Choi: There’s just a long history there, you didn’t do anything wrong @Bekker. But thanks for telling us about that.
-
Wifey: I really didn’t mean to cause problems.

FreeWilly: if Charles butts into my patients’ rooms ONE MORE TIME
Other Bekker: stealing patients is crocketts job
FreeWilly: low blow when he isnt here to defend himself
Dr. Lanik: We don’t need to talk about Dr. Marcel in this chat.
-
[Ethan Choi has named the chat “Crockett”]
[Ethan Choi has added “Other Bekker” to the chat]
[Ethan Choi has added “FreeWilly” to the chat]
[Ethan Choi has added “April” to the chat]
[Ethan Choi has added “no-ah” to the chat]
Ethan Choi: Sorry to start a new chat but I know you’re all Crockett’s good friends and obviously we need to talk about this
Ethan Choi: Did anybody know he was drinking again?
no-ah: I thought he might have been but wasnt sure and you know how he gets
Other Bekker: is he going to get fired?
FreeWilly: no jimmy isnt firing him. he and goodwin vouch for him since hes a good doctor
April: So what do we do next?
Ethan Choi: Goodwin called me and recommended a rehab facility
no-ah: Aren’t those for hard drugs
Other Bekker: theyre for anybody who needs rehab
Ethan Choi: It seemed like he was doing so much better. He’s been taking his meds and everything
FreeWilly: he’s seemed fine at work too
Ethan Choi: Does anybody think he’ll actually go to rehab?
April: Didn’t the hospital mandate it?
FreeWilly: jimmy says no. they just mandate he seek treatment. he goes to aa
Ethan Choi: He stopped going to meetings after he hit thirty days
no-ah: damn
-
Queen Elsa: Dr. Halstead is committing malpractice again
FreeWilly: it’s not technically malpractice
Queen Elsa: I hate this hospital
connor: doctors who dont commit malpractice solidarity
Maggie<3: It worries me that you joke about this
Dr. Lanik: Legally, it has been one month since our last malpractice suit
Dr. Lanik: @Nat
Nat: It was dismissed.
connor: i feel like that doesnt fix it
Nat: Will is the one who technically committed malpractice
Queen Elsa: How about none of us should commit malpractice
Other Bekker: ^^^
Bekker: You know who doesn’t commit malpractice
Bekker: Dr. Latham
connor: love that guy
Queen Elsa: Dr. Latham is one of three doctors in this hospital I respect
April: Who are the other two?
no-ah: definitely not halstead or manning 
connor: is one of them Goodwin
Queen Elsa: Mrs. Goodwin isn’t even a doctor. 
Queen Elsa: However, I do fully respect her as a superior and as a person.
Ethan Choi: Who else do you respect I actually really wanna know
Queen Elsa: It changes depending on the week.
no-ah: so she’s mysterious
Nat: Uh hey guys guess who I just ran into
[Nat has sent an image to the chat]
Ethan Choi: Where is this?
Nat: The gas station by the hospital. He’s arguing with the cashier about the price of discount vodka.
Ethan Choi: I’m on my way to pick him up.
-
FreeWilly: so that’s alarming
Ethan Choi: He’s not drunk, just really upset.
April: Praying for you both <3
-
Dr. Lanik: Mandatory substance abuse presentation in the projection room today.
Queen Elsa: Isn’t that dramatic?
Dr. Lanik: The last doctor of ours before who had a drinking problem jumped off the roof of the hospital. Given that Dr. Marcel is also struggling, the execs want a presentation about substance abuse and treatment and rehab options covered by our insurance. 
Ethan Choi: Yeah I’m gonna be at home with Crockett actually so I won’t be going
Dr. Lanik: This is mandatory.
connor: ok boomer
Dr. Lanik: Number one, we’re the same age. I’m actually pretty sure you’re older than me. Number two, this isn’t a joke.
connor: does he have… a heart?
Dr. Lanik: Very funny.
Maggie<3: I actually do think we should all go, that way if somebody on staff (other than Crockett) is struggling, they can get the support they need
Nat: ^
April: ^^
Dr. Lanik: Half of you will be paged before lunch, the other half afterward. Thank you.
-
Crockett: jsyk im not mad at you
Dr. Bekker (Blonde): Are you okay?
Crockett: i will be.

Noah
crickett: so i know were all having a rough time but
crickett: i was going over noahs chart on morning rounds and had a thot
crickett: pneumo-noah
Nat: Do you realize how not funny that is when he can’t breathe on his own right now?
crickett: noah would think its funny
crickett: @April tell him what i said hell think its funny
April: I’m not waking him up for that. He needs his rest. 
FreeWilly: How is he doing btw
April: He’s been on a nebulizer since he was admitted and he mostly sleeps. They’re working on a cocktail for his pneumonia and they haven’t found something that works, but it’s only been a few days so I have hope. They’re talking about draining the fluid manually if they don’t make progress soon because he’s having a hard time keeping sats up.
connor: yeah update on that? we’re planning on draining his lungs in a few hours
April: No one told me that.
connor: i told you
connor: and ava was just on her way to talk to you about it
Other Bekker: it feels weird to talk about a patient
April: He’s my brother
Other Bekker: fair point
crickett: is he using a feeding tube rn
April: Not yet, but probably soon.
April: @crickett Do not cook for him he won’t be able to eat cajun
crickett: cajun is the perfect food for all occasions coward
Ethan Choi: @crickett We all know you’re aware he can’t eat it and I understand that you’re having a hard time with this, but there are other ways to show him (and April) support. Right now, the joking isn’t helping anyone. This is a serious situation and you need to treat it as such.
[crickett has left the chat]
Other Bekker: @EthanChoi that was really harsh.
-
Nat: Have you eaten today?
April Sexton <3: We had breakfast together this morning
Nat: That was yesterday hon
April Sexton <3: Are you sure?
Nat: I’ll bring by takeout from that place you like down the block, and Owen made cookies for you and Noah. See you in an hour?
April Sexton <3: You’re the best.
-
Bekker: Great news everyone, we’ve managed to drain some of the fluid from Noah’s lungs! We are however still concerned with the initial infection and the fact that it could build up again. As of right now, he’s still on the neb but his sats are looking really good!
FreeWilly: !! 
Ethan Choi: That’s really good!
April: He’s awake rn and probably will be for a few minutes if anyone wants to visit
connor: ill send up crockett
Dr. Lanik: Speaking of, why did he leave the chat?
Other Bekker: bc Ethan was an asshole to him in front of all the people he cares about
Other Bekker: lmao
Queen Elsa: Why can’t we all just be nice to each other?
Maggie<3: ^
[Dr. Lanik has added “crickett” to the chat]
crickett: the band is back together
April: Noah thinks your joke was funny
crickett: VINDICATION
April: Come see him before he’s out again?
crickett: already in the elevator
crickett: ill stay with him. go home and get some rest in a real bed
Maggie<3: He has a point, you’ve been here for days. I’ll drive you
Nat: I’ve got it @Maggie<3
April: I’m an adult you know
Nat: Let me take care of you
-
Connor Rhodes: so crockett’s really upset with you
Connor Rhodes: he’s not planning on coming home tonight. he’s staying with noah
Ethan Choi: I don’t get why he’s so upset.
Connor Rhodes: you got mad at him in front of everyone important to him
Ethan Choi: I wasn’t mad at him
Ethan Choi: I’m not mad at him
Connor Rhodes: that’s not how he perceives it. hes hurt and hes allowed to be 
Ethan Choi: Should we be worried about his sobriety?
Connor Rhodes: i dont think so. hes not gonna be leaving the hospital room and he doesnt have anything on him. plus we both know its really important to him and you acting like this is why hes upset.
-
Bekker: Not to alarm anyone, but we just had to intubate Noah.
April: Nat and I will be there in a few minutes. Crockett’s still with him?
Bekker: Yes, and Connor
Maggie<3: What about Ethan?
connor: he went home an hour ago
Other Bekker: such an eventful and overwhelmingly negative day
April: When I left, wasn’t he doing better? Why intubate?
connor: we left the chest tube in with a valve in case we had to drain again, but the painkiller dose wasn’t as effective as we expected and he shifted during and after the procedure, which caused a bleed
April: Did you let a fucking med student do it?
connor: first of all, the procedure was done properly. second he gave consent when we admitted him for med students to assist
April: You let a med student put a fucking chest tube in my brother, undermedicated him, and now he’s intubated because of it?
Bekker: I know this is difficult, and you’re upset. We’ll talk more in person when we get here, but in the meanwhile, know that we are doing everything we can for Noah and he will get through this.
Other Bekker: no one here would ever endanger any patient, let alone your brother @April
Nat: We just parked we’re on our way up
crickett: they put noah under just an fyi
Maggie<3: Let’s all remember to be calm about this. Noah is going to recover. He’s young and healthy and a fighter
crickett: hes immunocompromised
Maggie<3: @crickett Not helping.
crickett: yoinks
Nat: @FreeWilly @Dr.Lanik would you guys mind relieving the babysitter? April and I are going to be here all night.
FreeWilly: I’ll go pick owen up and we’ll keep an eye on him for you. We’ll take him to school in the morning too
Nat: You’re a lifesaver
Dr. Lanik: Parents have to stick together.

Up and Down
Elsa Curry: Hey, Dr. Lanik. I just wanted to check in and make sure you're okay. The “heartless” jokes aren't funny and I know it can be really hurtful. If you want to talk about it, I'm here.
-
Queen Elsa: I just wanted to remind everyone to be nice to each other.
April: I don't think we have a problem with that in this chat but yeah
Bekker: ^
connor: unrelated but @OtherBekker is screaming into her locker?
Other Bekker: some of us,,, scream,,,, to cope??? mind your damn business
connor: skjshsh
Dr. Lanik: What does that mean??
connor: it's a keysmash 
Ethan Choi: Crockett physically handwrote a "keysmash" on our grocery list once 
Other Bekker: true talent 
Dr. Lanik: That doesn’t help me understand what it’s supposed to mean.
connor: then perish
Dr. Lanik: I can and will ban memes in this chat.
[Other Bekker has renamed the chat “memes”]
[Other Bekker has sent an image to the chat]
Other Bekker: when your patient swears theyre not on drugs but their tox screen says otherwise
FreeWilly: MOOD
Connor: rt
no-ah: Tag yourself, I’m Sarah’s patient that’s on drugs
Other Bekker: tag yourself im sarah
Bekker: Tag yourself, I’m sarah’s wife
Other Bekker: THATS MY WIFE
Dr. Lanik: Why don’t any of you take me seriously?
FreeWilly: I take you seriously most of the time
connor: and i oop
April: Breaking news, @connor is a VSCO girl
Nat: More importantly why is @Dr.Lanik curled up in a ball on the floor of the doctor’s lounge?
FreeWilly: Ill go check on him
connor: should we be worried?
Queen Elsa: Maybe it’s because none of you are nice to him.
Other Bekker: ??
Bekker: To be fair, I’m not nice to anyone.
Ethan Choi: @QueenElsa What do you mean?
Queen Elsa: You guys make a lot of jokes about him being heartless or a robot or socially inept (etc) and it’s really… not funny. I have a lot of the same qualities that Dr. Lanik does, and was bullied for them constantly growing up. All the things you say to him are hurtful.
connor: i honestly didnt mean them to be hurtful?? it was always joking
Queen Elsa: Like how people were “just joking” when they attacked Dr. A. Bekker in the hallway a few months ago? Was that not hurtful or wrong? 
Queen Elsa: (Although I acknowledge that these situations aren’t the same and what she went through was more than just hurtful or wrong.)
connor: low blow.
connor: but i see ur point.
Bekker: Can we not talk about that, please?
Queen Elsa: I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to upset you. 
FreeWilly: Update Im taking Jimmy home for the day
Maggie<3: Let me know if you need anything.

[crickett has created a chat]
[crickett has named the chat “trauma buddies”]
[crickett has added “Bekker” to the chat]
[crickett has added “Other Bekker” to the chat]
[crickett has added “no-ah” to the chat]
[crickett has added “Nat” to the chat]
crickett: if i have to talk about my trauma then we all do so lets chat
Bekker: Someone in the work group chat brought up [redacted], which is fun! Especially because Sarah and I are both off work for our daughter right now. So now Sarah is pushing her on the swings while I try to breathe like a normal person.
crickett: :( im sorry
Bekker: It’s fine! Everything is fine!
Nat: Doesn’t seem fine, but okay.
crickett: whos next share ur issues
Nat: I mean, you let me stay in a relationship with someone who was manipulative and emotionally abusive. That was kind of traumatic.
crickett: i didnt want to overstep
Nat: You KNEW he put a ring on my finger while I was unconscious! You should have told me!!
no-ah: Yeah, that wasn’t cool dude
crickett: and i still am sorry. i should have told u, ur right. i was dealing with my own issues at the time, but that isnt an excuse. im glad ur not still with him.
no-ah: also @crickett why did you think this chat would be a good idea?
crickett: if i have to deal with my issues everyone does
Other Bekker: does this mean i have to talk about my parents
crickett: if u want u can
no-ah: Oh, so you want me to talk about my nightmares?
Bekker: This is such a productive and not confrontational chat.
[Bekker has left the chat]
-
Ethan Choi: I know it’s been kind of an emotional day for a lot of people, but it would really mean a lot to Crockett and I if anybody wanted to come over for dinner tonight. He’s supposed to graduate from his outpatient program in a few days, so we’re doing a dinner thing. 
FreeWilly: Jimmy and I will be there.
Other Bekker: I’m coming, but Ava’s gonna stay home with Sunny
April: I’m forcing @no-ah to come
Nat: I’ll be there with @April
Maggie<3: The gang’s all here
Queen Elsa: I’m not going to be able to make it, sorry!
Ethan Choi: @QueenElsa we’ll miss you!
no-ah: @EthanChoi did you know Crockett made a trauma chat
Ethan Choi: ?
no-ah: He’s trying to get everyone to talk about their issues except it’s not going well lol
Other Bekker: yoinks
Other Bekker: @Bekker was in it but she left 
Maggie<3: Does this mean Crockett is coming back to work soon?
Ethan Choi: Once he graduates, he’s going to be given clearance to limited return! It’ll be limited to 20 hours a week for the first couple months and then hopefully he’ll be able to ease into working full time again
FreeWilly: !!!!! Nice! Its not as much fun without him
Dr. Lanik: The ED should not be fun.
-
Ethan Choi: And of course, you’re invited to stay the night afterward. 
Connor Rhodes: <3

And Connor Makes Three
[Ethan Choi has added “crickett” to the chat]
crickett: im back ladies and sluts
Other Bekker: what if im a lady and a slut
crickett: idk die then
connor: i am neither a lady nor a slut
crickett: im sorry thats not what you were saying last night :)
no-ah: Gross youre my dad
Other Bekker: You’re My Dad! Oogie Woogie Woogie
Dr. Lanik: Crockett should never be a parent.
crickett: ouch
crickett: but u right
Maggie<3: It’s both nice and terrible to have @crickett back in the chat
crickett: love u mags
Queen Elsa: In other news, I just took the Bekkers’ daughter (Sunny) to see Frozen Two! 
Queen Elsa: And it was AWESOME!
April: Movie Elsa had her hair down
Other Bekker: hrrg im big lesbian
FreeWilly: @Dr.Lanik and I saw that with Emma it was really good
crickett: do i hear viewing party
Ethan Choi: Your last viewing party turned into a threesome
connor: lol
Nat: Okay, can we actually talk about whatever’s going on there? Are you three like, all a thing now? Is Connor part of the relationship? Or is it just a sex thing
crickett: does this mean we can talk about my threesomes now
Ethan Choi: No
Dr. Lanik: No
Maggie<3: No
crickett: prudes.
-
connor: so. 
connor: nats question
Ethan Choi: Honestly, it’s something Crockett and I haven’t really talked about (although we probably should have). The sex is great, and I can vouch for the fact that we really enjoy it but… It’s a bit more than sex by this point, isn’t it? Sure we’re all “active” but most nights we get to have dinner together, and kiss, and be happy- I’d argue that it’s kind of just sex but also so much more.
crickett: i for one think ud make a good bf (or husband uwu)
connor: is that something that either of you want? to be in a relationship?
Ethan Choi: This is a conversation we should probably have in person. I’ll make reservations at that steakhouse Crockett likes for eight tonight, and we’ll talk about it?
connor: ok
no-ah: I DIAGNOSE MYSELF WITH IDIOT BITCH DISORDER
FreeWilly: Im not disagreeing but why
[no-ah has sent an image to the chat]
no-ah: Forgot that my lungs are still Broken™ and maybe did a lot of running and also left my inhaler at home
April: That’s treatment two?
no-ah: Don’t come mother me
April: Too late, you’re on a nebulizer and you’re shaking
Queen Elsa: Do we have to babysit him like we babysit Dr. Rhodes?
Maggie<3: Maybe
Bekker: Dibs on not doing it because as someone who works with Connor when he’s on trauma and CT, I have like double duty all the time
Other Bekker: Noah is a responsible adult
connor: im a responsible adult
Nat: Are you :/
connor: no :/
crickett: we all share one braincell except connor he doesnt use it
crickett: also i need everyone to be aware that noah’s stats arent improving and im worried so its chest x ray time
Maggie<3: You might be overreacting. It’s been a while since you’ve been on rotation, so maybe hold off?
crickett: i listened to his chest and im worried.
-
April Sexton <3: I won’t be over tonight, I’m staying with Noah in the hospital.
Nat: Take care of him and yourself, I understand. Don’t hesitate to call if you need me
-
crickett: fun and sexy update, noah has pneumonia
crickett: this is what happens when im not around
Dr. Lanik: I would argue that your update was neither fun nor sexy
crickett: pneumonia is supremely sexy.
Ethan Choi: @crickett Please act like a person
crickett: @EthanChoi no.
Bekker: They’re transferring him to CT so I’ll keep an eye on him for you all when you’re busy. I know things can get a little crazy down there. 
April: thank you <3
FreeWilly: Between all of us we can probably make sure Noahs okay and update each other etc
no-ah: Or I could just tell you all how I’m feeling
April: Will you tell the truth?
no-ah: …
April: That’s what I thought.
Nat: Owen is making him a get well card already.
FreeWilly: That is so fucking cute
Maggie<3: Not to get off topic but… I think I just got hit on??
Other Bekker: S P I L L
Maggie<3: So you know the gift shop girl who brings teddy bears and candy by the ED for the young patients?
Other Bekker: HAH I knew she liked you I could tell
Maggie<3: She gave me a teddy bear holding a heart and a vase of flowers and told me I was beautiful and also I have her phone number now
FreeWilly: TEXT HER
Nat: Do you like her back?
Bekker: This feels like we’re all in second grade
connor: and what about it? @Maggie<3 text her asap
Dr. Lanik: I have to agree with everyone and say you should text her
Queen Elsa: You deserve to find happiness @Maggie<3, so if you think that you can get that from this woman, you should absolutely text her (or call her) when you have the chance and try to catch dinner with her. 
Other Bekker: youre so articulate
-
Ethan Choi: Wear something nice?
connor: for you, always
-
crickett: breaking news guys my threesome is now an actual relationship threesome! two boyfriends means twice the kisses,,
connor: bold of you to assume we will not just each kiss you half of the normal amount
crickett: Bullying!
Nat: I’m happy for you! You three always seemed to get along really well.
Ethan Choi: But that does mean we have to get a king bed (we have a queen right now) so uh if anybody needs a queen, text me!
Queen Elsa: Ironically enough given my username, I actually do. Once you get your new bed, we can talk about arrangements?
Ethan Choi: Sounds good to me!
no-ah: I sleep in a big queen bed by myself :(
FreeWilly: Maybe you wouldn’t be by yourself if you actually talked to boys you like and didn’t get pneumonia
no-ah: listen...
