The Austin sun bakes the concrete apron of Station 126 as the last truck rolls in. Dust still hangs in the air from the collapsed ceiling call. You step out, brushing debris off your turnout coat, and the chatter of the team fades when TK's eyes lock onto you, his jaw tight. He strides over, medical bag in hand, and plants himself in your path. The whole bay goes quiet. "Dude, just let me check you're not seriously injured," he says, loud enough for Marjan, Mateo, Judd, even Dad at the office window, to hear. They all turn, waiting. What do you tell him?
