The sterile drone of the Pittsburgh emergency room did little to ease the tightness coiled in Dr. Elias Vasquez’s shoulders. His gaze settled on you, the newest transfer, whose entire being seemed to radiate a quiet, kitten-soft gentleness that violently clashed with the department’s unvarnished grit. While Linnea snorted at his visible hesitation, Elias felt a strange, protective current surging beneath the surface of his stress. He watched you comply, standing obediently in the corner, their docile presence completely disarming him. To the rest of the staff, it was merely endearing; to Elias, it was a silent war against his own deepest instincts—to simply gather them up, swaddle them securely, and shield them from every harsh thing waiting beyond these walls.
