Post Hypothermia Problems.
Part 1. 💜
‘Hh— Ngxt. . gxxtCh! He’nxcT.’
“Hey, TK? You know, I’m starting to find it really hard to tell the difference between you and Buttercup’s favourite squeaky toy.” Nancy pulled up beside him at the coffee station, taking notice that he was opting for tea rather than his usual. “You sure you’re okay?”
“That’s real funny, Nance.” Her fellow Paramedic muttered, stirring a little sugar into his teacup. “Really, I’m fine.”
“You’ve been sneezing more than usual. Is it your allergies? You sick, or something?” She took a small step backwards, but it was mostly just for show; they were around sick people all day everyday. It was literally their job.
TK shrugged, blowing on the tea and bringing it over to the table. The fire crew were out on a call, but EMS weren’t needed for cats in trees. Multiple cats, apparently, were indeed stuck in a singular tree. Tommy had promised to leave out some Benadryl for Mateo when they got back.
“Usually you’re pre-tty quick to jump on the fact that you don’t have allergies.” She pointed out, standing behind him at the table.
He scrunched up his nose, sniffling slightly. “Yeah, well, Texas hits different. You and Carlos always tell me that, don’t you?”
“Yeah, but—“ the trill of the emergency bell cut her off, and TK was on his feet before she could even think about finishing her sentence.
They were being called out to a fairly standard emergency; an elderly man had taken a fall in the garden helping his wife, and they arrived within ten minutes of the alarm bells. The woman was standing waiting for them out front, quick to lead them to her partner. “Oh, thank you for coming! He insists he’s fine, but you know how stubborn men can be!” The elderly woman chuckled, giving a fond look over at her husband currently lying on the grass.
“Oh believe me, I do know.” Nancy muttered, earning a slightly questioning look from Tommy and a glare from TK.
“TK, check his ABCs and Nancy prep a splint. Wrist injury looks to be likely, and we’ll check to make sure nothing else is broken.” Tommy knelt down beside him, whilst TK knelt on the other side. He checked his pulse, blood pressure and breathing; all were a little out of range, but nothing that warranted huge concern.
They were loading the man onto the gurney within fifteen minutes, having diagnosed him with a mild concussion and broken wrist. He’d need to be further treated at the hospital, and so Nancy and Tommy were loading him up now whilst TK carried the equipment back. Until, once again he was caught being betrayed by his nose.
‘H’nxxtt, xXgGt, he’ng—Tt. Ow,’ A haphazard attempt to use his elbow to cover, whilst still holding the equipment… and tripping himself up the garden steps. At least nobody saw. Or, at least he’d thought so.
“Gesundheit, dear. You shouldn’t force them all quiet like that, I read an article, you know. The internet can be helpful! My grandkids showed me how to get a Facebook just last year. Come over here, take this and let me help you.” She held out a handkerchief, that TK assumed was clean, and it had little embroidered daisies on it.
He could feel himself blush with sheer embarrassment, really hoping that maybe she somehow just had really really good hearing for a sweet old lady, and didn’t just see him fall up her steps. “Oh, it’s okay, Ma’am. I’m — I’m okay.” TK answered politely, but he clearly wasn’t, with the incessant sniffling that had started up again.
“Now, you might think I’m a gullible old lady. . But, I’m not that gullible, young man. Come on over here.”
She seemed like a force not to be reckoned with, and TK didn’t want to be rude. Plus, the team were most likely waiting for him now. He walked over, taking the handkerchief and thanking her quietly. He swiped at his nose a few times on their way to the front of the house, before sniffling and pocketing it. He couldn’t just ruin his dignity and blow his nose in front of her, could he? Thankfully, there weren’t too many questions when they made it out front, and the ride to the hospital was uneventful. Everything seemed normal again… until TK stepped out of the ambulance back at the station, and both of his crew members stopped him.
“Do you guys… need something?” He questioned, silently cringing at the congestion starting to stick to his voice.
“Yeah. For you to sit down, come on.” Tommy took him by the arm, and lead him over to the seating area in the kitchen. To make it worse, the fire crew were back too.
“Oooh, looks like TK’s in trouble!” Marjan grinned over her mug of coffee, attracting the newfound attention of both Mateo and Paul.
TK swallowed as he sat down, grimacing at the worsening pain in his throat. Now that the adrenaline of being on call was beginning to wear off, he really didn’t feel great. “I’m not in trouble. Cap, what’re you —“ he was cut off as she spoke to him, holding an in ear thermometer out before him.
“Sit still, and hush, TK. I’m checking your temperature.”
“But, I’m fine!”
“Has he been doin’ that little squeaky chew toy sneeze again? He was doing that this morning.” Paul cut in, waving around the salad fork he had in his hand in an accusatory manner.
“Yes! See, told you!” Nancy placed both hands on her hips, looking directly down at her partner.
The thermometer beeped after that, saving him from a little more humiliation. Tommy took a glance at the screen. “Well, you don’t have a fever, but you’re running a little warmer than usual.” She took a small flashlight from her pocket. “Open. Say ‘aaaaah.’”
TK sealed his lips tight, folded his arms and shook his head.
“Come on, TK, really?” Nancy sighed.
“We’ll have to go get your Daddy if you don’t do as Tom says.” Judd’s voice joined the crowd, and in that moment TK really just wanted to fall into a hole and hide in it.
A pause was made, before Marjan gave a side glance to some of her colleagues. Her look said ‘let’s give them some space,’ and sure enough Paul was conjuring up some excuse about needing more water bottles, Mateo had to go pee (he couldn’t think of anything else) and Judd was going to check on the fire trucks. TK appreciated it, and he slowly opened his mouth.
“I’mb not saying ‘ahh’ — oh, wait.” He frowned, and leaned back in his chair as his Captain gestured for him to open up again. He did as he was told this time, and he certainly didn’t like the way she ‘tsked’ at him in response.
“Your throat’s pretty red, TK. That accompanied by the slightly raised temp, sneezing and congestion. I think you ought to go home and rest.”
“But—“
“Ah, ah! No buts, no ‘I’m fine’s and no telling me that it’s just a cold. It probably is, but if you recall the middle of this last winter, you were in hospital with hypothermia. Your body needs rest, even now. And despite all that… if you push yourself, post hypothermia or not, you’ll get worse and you’ll also risk other patients.” The micro lecture felt like it had lasted forever, or maybe that was just because his ears felt stuffy and his head was starting to ache and it was becoming harder to focus.
“… okay.” Came the eventual, defeated reply.
It hurt both Nancy and Tommy’s heart a little bit, and Marjan’s, who had been quietly taking over the salad prep behind them. “I can take you home,” she offered, stepping closer. “We’re on break, and if I’m honest? I could do with some fast food. Paul would never know.” She smiled, offering TK a hand to help him stand.
He stood on his own, looking down at his hands and picking at a fingernail. “Marjan, you… you don’t have to take me. I can Uber home.” He sniffed, a small noise of discomfort slipping past his lips as he swallowed again.
A glass of water was suddenly placed in his hands, and he looked up to find her looking at him expectantly. “TK, I’m getting my fast food fix, so really you’re not even the main priority!” She grinned.
“Thank you?”
“C’mon! Before the call bell goes off and I starve. You don’t want to be responsible for that, do you?”
TK shook his head, turning back at the others who only gave sympathetic smiles, which made him even more uncomfortable. “I’ll just… go grab my stuff.” He muttered, turning and walking back to the lockers.
The ride back was as uneventful as earlier’s, but that was only because TK fell asleep before Marjan had gotten to the takeout place. He stayed asleep until she was parking outside his and Carlos’ place, and jolted awake with a start as she gently shook him.
“Hey, TK, it’s just me, we’re—“
“Home. Thank you, I — sorry.” He was already reaching for the handle, not looking like he wanted to stick around. “Thanks again, Marjan. Um, enjoy your food.”
“Get better!” She called out, just in time before the door closed. She watched as he waved, and eventually disappeared out of sight.
When TK got through the door, Carlos was situated on the couch reading. It was his day off, after a night shift the day before, but TK wasn’t surprised to see him awake already. He always seemed to rise early, no matter the occasion.
“Babe!” His boyfriend was immediately on his feet. “I would say I told you so, but—“
“Stop it, Carlos. I don’t want a fuss.” His voice was worsening; congestion settled in thick, and a hoarseness from his scratchy throat. He sounded awful, in other words. “Just want to lie down.”
“I left a change of clothes for you in our room,” Carlos said softly, staying a few steps away so as to keep the boundary. “And, there’s leftovers in the fridge if you want them. I’ll grab you some water.”
“‘M not very hungry,” TK replied, before making his way into their bedroom. He emerged a few minutes later in a pair of sweatpants, and Carlos’ APD hoodie. It was comfortable, and with the small amount of ability that he had left to smell, TK appreciated the familiar and comforting scent of the attire.
He took a few sips of the water left on the coffee table for him, and snuggled up underneath the blanket atop of the couch.
“Can you stomaxh a few crackers? Are you nauseous?” Carlos approached hesitantly, holding a packet of crackers in one hand and a plastic bowl in the other. Affectionately coined ‘puke bowl’ the last time TK had the stomach flu. Besides that, this was one of the first times Carlos was actually seeing him sick; not in a coma sick. He’d seen that in enough bouts for one lifetime.
“I’m not nauseous, but thank you for bringing back Percy the puke bowl.” A tiny smile ghosted his lips, before a scrunch of his nose and a slightly aggressive rub at it.
Carlos chuckled, shaking his head at the nickname he’d refused to agree with back then. “Crackers, then?”
TK whined. “When I wake up?” He negotiated, eyes already closed.
Carlos sighed, but he knew he was fighting a losing battle. TK probably needed sleep more than he needed a snack, and at least he’d drank some water. In fact, he was snoring before Carlos could even consider asking him if there was anything he’d like to eat later on. So much for the ‘I’m fine, Carlos!’ He’d gotten this morning, after informing his boyfriend that he might be coming down with something. He’d been snoring. TK doesn’t snore, unless his nose is stuffy. But, alas, Carlos’ detective skills had gone unnoticed once again.
He left him to rest, keeping himself busy with tidying the place a little and preparing what he coiod for when TK woke. He knew he wouldn’t want any painkillers for obvious reasons, but they had other remedies for colds and flu that they could try. Vapour rub (of course), different kinds of herbal tea, honey from the farmer’s market and tissues. Lots of tissues. Now, Carlos just had to work out a happy medium that fell somewhere between wanting to take care of the man he loved, whilst not fussing over him. This one might take a while.

Album a day poll
Winner of last poll: “Floral Strobe” by False Noise
Votes are appreciated even if you don’t know any of the albums :}
Review of last album: “Collapsed in Sunbeams” by Arlo Parks
I already knew and quite liked one song from this album. I didn’t really like the rest of it all that much. It might be nice to put on in the background for something but probably not something I’ll be listening to a lot in the future.
Last poll here
Next poll here

Chapter 10: Turned
Suresh narrowed his eyes. “No. He wouldn’t. He wouldn’t do one- tenth of the shit that you want to be done to you on a regular Wednesday. You and I are a whole different level of fucked up, Jade. I get you.”
Jade sighed, as she slid her hands down to his, squeezing them, but gently pushing him away. The sudden distance between their bodies felt cold as ever, like he’d been tugged apart and opened at the seams.
“I know,” she whispered. “And I get you. But that’s in the past.”
Please note:
Zero changes have been made to chapter 9. I wrote it how I wrote it and I stand by it.
Comment moderation is now on
All the comment threads that made me sad have been deleted from chapter 9.
An additional tag has been added to the fic.
Thank you to everyone who supported me to keep it the way it was 💖💖💖

Hoping this doesn't start OG vs LS discourse but it's so annoying that ppl praise LS more just because Tar los is canon and Buddie isn't. I'm seeing it a lot here and it's frustrating because people seem to think that canon always means better and that's not true.
I'm in the camp of Buddie fans who would be so happy if it was canon but ultimately doesn't care if it doesn't happen because I love their story and the rest of the show regardless, and it's annoying that ppl are reducing the OG to that one pairing and acting like its value is less and that all of 911's other well done (and diverse, if that's what LS fans care about) stories don't matter because the popular mlm ship isn't canon.
this is such a weird take that i always see from them. personally, if buck and eddie went canon and it was anything like t arlos, i'd be devastated. i'd rather their relationship stays the way it is without going canon, rather than turning into...whatever LS has going on. aside from the fact that it's incredibly homophobic to act as if two gay ships are interchangeable, there's an entire universe of difference between both pairs. buck and eddie have almost five seasons worth of development and we've seen every bit of it, every conflict, every major scene, every shared trauma. and that's not even taking into account the christopher of it all 🤷🏽♀️
and yeah, like you said, the OG has a lot more going on for them than buddie, and even if buddie did go canon, they would in no way be the 'main' dynamic at the focus of the show because the OG actually knows what an ensemble is. also this argument is such an insult to their own preferred show? 😂 like you're basically implying that it has nothing else going on for it other than this one ship, and that is...not a good look. lol.
#anyone who thinks t arlos is the best thing abt LS is lying to themselves anyway grace and judd are clearly the best couple#neethu answers#anon#anti lone star

WAY OUT WEST FESTIVAL 2023 - DAY 2.
Photos by Christopher Hall.
The Cocaine Dr. Seuss opened up the main stage on Friday with a furious set. A huge crowd was moshing for King Push.
Arlo Parks, who gets better and better every time she is on stage, had an unbelievable set on the Azalea stage in the late afternoon sun.
Amyl and the Sniffers tore the Linne tent down with barnburner of a set. The lead singer Amy Taylor is an absolutely insane front woman - bounding back and forth across the stage and down into the crowd. What a band.
Billy Strings brought his bluegrass to Gothenburg and sang to a hopping crowd. What a performer.
