i'm not like the other doctors. i'm a cool doctor.

Aw, it is so sweet of you to take an interest in the bottom feeders of the social aquarium, but I cannot discuss other patients problems. Tasha Schultz || 42 || Licensed Therapist

whats-a-silas:

Of the many things Silas had planned on doing with his weekend, the one thing he had absolutely not planned was staring at a specific graffiti mark in front of a trashy restaurant he had absolutely zero intention to enter. “D’you think the people inside think I’m a fuckin’ freak right about now?” He questioned, turning to the person he’d heard approaching him on the sidewalk. “I can’t make any fuckin’ sense of what this is supposed to say. I can’t tell if artists are gettin’ lazier, or I’m gettin’ worse at understandin’ basic shit.”

Tasha stared aimlessly ahead at the colorful vandalism, head cocked to the side. At the sound of his voice she jumped, turning to him with eyes shielded by sunglasses, mouth hanging open. “Maybe,” she answered honestly, hiccuping. So she was a little drunk. But it was already, like, noon. “It looks like...colors.” She shook her head, words slurring slightly.

“So my daughter told me that it would be a good idea for me to have an Instagram. She’s seven and she’s already acting like my publicist. Although, I do have to say, it was a great idea. I have a lot of followers and I just created the page. I didn’t know so many loved my work.”

“My seven year old does the same thing,” Tasha laughed with a shake of her head, thinking of her son. “What kind of work is it you do?” She wondered curiously, pulling up her instagram app.

“You know when you called me and said that you needed help with making dinner, I thought you would be helping out more. So are you just gonna watch me or actually help me out with your dinner.” 

“I’m more of the sit and watch with a glass of wine kind of gal,” the doctor smiled softly, watching as Alisa prepared the food. “You’re lucky you’re the one I call when Maddie’s in class late,” she smiled, “though I guess I’m the lucky one - nobody cooks nearly as well.” The redhead offered, chuckling.

It was nice enough to be in central park and Ava was nearly sprawled out, her head back – sunglasses on her eyes as her headphones played loudly in her ears. She removed one when she felt a shadow over her, “Did you want to sit?” She peered open an eye, removing her leg from where it was stretched out on the rest of the bench. 

Tasha watched curiously as the small dog made it’s way over to the woman’s bag, kneeling down and beginning to do it’s business - right in the poor woman’s purse. Figuring somebody ought to tell her before she found out on her own, the therapist stood from her place, unsure of how to approach the situation. “No, uh...that dog just left you a lovely gift in your bag...”

Tyson: You act like I'm not safe when I'm having sex. First of all, rude. Second of all, still rude.

Tyson: It feels like it is.

Tyson: I don't feel like leaving my house Tash, seriously.

Tasha: That's not what I meant. I just want you to be a kid forever - I know, totally impractical. Call me crazy.

Tasha: Are taking anything?

Tasha: I just meant that maybe we could come over. I'd bring over food and stuff, but I don't think you want to be around people.

“You think so?” Maddie asked with a little giggle. “Her stomach is way flatter than mine. And her legs could kick a hole through the sun.” She bit her lip and tilted her head a little, her nails gently scratching along Tasha’s arms as she was pulled even closer. “Yeah you usually do, don’t you?” Maddie hummed. But when Tasha pulled away, she sighed a little, wondering if maybe she should’ve left it alone. She knew her girlfriend couldn’t really talk about her patients, but she wished she could be some sort of outlet. 

“I’m sorry, honey..” Maddie said softly as she sat on the edge of Tasha’s bed. She was often pretty open for her friends, but her friends’ issues were usually things she’d heard before. Tasha, however, heard things that could break someone’s heart every single day. It always seemed like so much for one person. “You help people every day,” she sighed, reaching out to finish Tasha’s buttons and help pull the fabric off her body. “It’s what I love most about you.” Maddie pulled the woman close by her hips and gently kissed her stomach. “How can I make you happy, love? You deserve it too..”

“Mm, I know so,” the redhead agreed with a hum, disregarding her comments about her stomach with a wave of her hand. “And yours kicked a hole through my heart.” If that made sense. “In like, the most romantic way possible.” She assured her, giggling softly as she let down her hair. Shrugging sadly, Tasha glanced up at her girlfriend with a grimace. “It’s just work,” she mumbled, knowing there wasn’t much she could do about it. 

Letting Maddie finish undoing her top, Tasha slid it off of her shoulders and into her palms, helping Maddie peel it off of her arms. Hands resting on the back of Maddie’s head tenderly, Tasha caressed the locks softly, smiling. “You make me happy,” she answered, cupping the girls cheeks and swooping down to kiss her deeply. “You make me so happy,” she repeated, pulling away from the kiss with a small sigh. “But I would love to get high with you and help you guys cook dinner?” She asked hopefully.

When Maddie was done with her hair, she hung up her robe and changed into underwear and a bra before putting on a pair of Tasha’s sweatpants. And when she heard the woman walk in the room, she smirked a little with a chuckle. “Well,” she started, crossing her arms over her girlfriend’s as the came around her body. “I was talking about how good Naomi Smalls’ long black wig looked, and it was kind of all impulse from there..”

She’d been waiting hours for Tasha’s approval, and her compliments were making Maddie feel warm. “A what?? No no, I don’t know how to be a bad ass. Don’t set me up to disappoint..” Looking at their reflection, she smiled as she reached up to cup Tasha’s cheek gently. “I missed you,” she said softly, stroking the redhead’s skin with her thumb. “Talk to me about today, baby. You looked bothered when I asked about it.”

Leaning into the soft touch to her cheek, Tasha smiled warmly at her girlfriend, lips pressing to her palm sweetly. “You look way better than Naomi Smalls...” she chuckled, fingers lightly pressing into Maddie’s skin as she tugged her a little closer. “I like your impulses,” the redhead breathed softly, glad that she’d come home to something like this rather than having to keep listening to her patients for the day.

“Oh you could totally be a badass,” the older woman laughed, resting her chin on Maddie’s small shoulder, blue eyes running over their reflection in appreciation. “I missed you too,” she replied gently, and at the question Tasha slumped down a little, sighing somewhat sadly. “It’s nothing, just...patient stuff.” She mumbled, kissing Maddie’s shoulder again as she pulled away from her to put on something more comfortable. She couldn’t exactly talk about the issues; but she didn’t want it to seem like she was pushing Maddie away. “People are sad. Makes me sad.” She shrugged once, unbuttoning her blouse.

Maddie grinned, sure her cheeks would be pink for the rest of the day. Upon looking in the mirror for the first time, she wasn’t so sure if she liked it. Dark hair reminded her of being called names or waking up to S-L-U-T spraypainted on her locker; of bloody noses and toilet-water soaked textbooks. But now, all she had when she looked around was the people she loved the most, and back then, she never could’ve dreamed of being as happy as she was now.

“Thank you, love..” she hummed, unable to help the laugh at Vincent’s quiet protest. He was her little best friend, and being able to spend so much time with him meant a lot to her. “What do you think she’s dreaming about, mate?” Maddie asked him curiously over her shoulder before turning back to Tasha with a soft giggle. “I’m gonna go get dressed, okay?” she said, heading into her girlfriend’s bedroom to pick out clothes and dry her hair quickly, only to put it into a messy bun.

“Milk,” Vincent answered simply, turning back to his cartoons with the kitten sleeping soundly in his lap. Tasha laughed, pulling away from Maddie as she went to go get dressed. Tasha began to unpack her groceries, and once she was finished and Maddie hadn’t returned, the redhead crossed her way to her bedroom to watch the now dark haired woman dress. “So what brought on the big change?” She asked curiously, taking a step inside her bedroom.

Her arms came around Maddie’s bare stomach and pulled her back against her, kissing her shoulder lightly. “You kind of look like a total badass,” the doctor purred in her ear, chuckling darkly as her fingers danced across soft skin. Eyes flickering to the mirror, Tasha took in the contrast of their hair colors, giggling in amusement.

‘‘ I– I guess I’m afraid, If I don’t get the help she’ll see me.. as some monster, and that’s the last thing I want.’‘ A hand runs along his face and he nods once as he gazes at her for a moment. ‘‘ My job can be demanding, I get that. I just don’t want anyone to think I’m crazy, or just screwed up with working. You got no idea how much I appreciate this. I’m sorry to come to you when you’re.. of the clock.’’

“So it’s something we can work on,” Tasha nodded once in agreement, reaching out to give Kaleb’s arm a light squeeze in reassurance. Laughing, Tasha shook her head, “I’m never off the clock, babe. It’s all in a day’s work,” she chuckled, shrugging. “When are you available?”

Tyson: flattery and kittens won't get you anywhere woman.

Tyson: and I was lying lady. If we're being honest, the meds have kinda diminished that drive so don't worry about my wreckless sex.

Tyson: I'm tired Tas. I don't wanna do anything.

Tasha: Why not? :(

Tasha: Is it bad if that makes me feel better?

Tasha: I know, kiddo. I'm sorry.

Tasha: Well you just...let me know if you need anything.

‘‘I mean.. Yeah, it’s kind of well. It’s just.’‘ Motioning her to follow him, the smile vanishes across his features and he shrugs. ‘‘Can we make our visits more frequent?? I’m.. just having problems with my mental health. And.. I don’t want to worry Edie anymore. I know you’re off the clock and all that shit. But.. I need some help.’’

Noticing his expression Tasha sobered up a bit, furrowing her brows together. “Of course, sweetie,” she nodded, brushing her hair out of her face, “I think it’s very mature of you to ask for it. It show’s that you really want it.” She assured him softly, not wanting to feel inadequate for asking for help.

Lana quirked her brow.  “Why can’t you.. I mean. I’m okay. I got a little angry and threw an iPad across a nurses station. Why is that such a big deal?” She frowned and rolled her eyes . “Look. I am 100% stable. I got a little pissed off a few days ago and was a little sleep deprived and stressed. But.. I’m a resident - who isn’t sleep deprived when you’re a resident.” she added quickly trying to dig herself out of this hole she’d gotten herself into. “I had a bad day. It was.. Should have been my moms birthday..” she played with her sleeve tugging it down. “I spoke to my dad and he just brushed it off - and I was mad.. And tired.. And It just fucking sucks.”  she whispered getting teary eyed. 

“That’s...totally okay.” Tasha shook her head in opposition to her words, sighing. “Are you on any medication?” The doctor asked, narrowing her eyes. It seemed like Lana had a serious temper issue; nothing a few pills couldn’t fix. But already she could see how the younger woman was opening up without even realizing it. That’s usually how these things worked. Reaching over for the tissues on the table, Tasha offered them to the woman with a sad smile. “It’s okay, hon. Let it out.”

When Tasha’s face blanket, Maddie’s heart dropped a little. The woman hated it, and blonde-to-black wasn’t exactly something that could be reversed easily. “Oh no,” she breathed out, about to blabber about how bleach could work wonders, but then her girlfriend’s expression changed a bit, and she then realized that maybe the impression she got wasn’t the right one.

“Wait…really..?” Maddie asked, her lips slowly turning into a smile as her cheeks pinkened. She shuffled her feet a little bashfully, tugging the robe tighter. “Well, I mean it is closer to my natural color..” she shrugged, more than happy that her girlfriend didn’t hate it. Not that she needed her approval to change herself, but she still loved that Tasha thought it looked good. “You really like it?”

It took Tasha a moment to adjust to it, but once she really looked Maddie over, she couldn’t help but be more attracted to the girl - it didn’t hurt that she was just wearing a robe. Stepping forward, Tasha took hold of the lapels of her robe, pulling her closer to kiss her softly. “You look beautiful, Maddie.” She offered with a smile, fingers coming up to play with a strand of black hair - it contrasted so beautifully against Maddie’s pale skin. 

“Did you have fun, baby?” She called out to her son, not breaking eye contact with her girlfriend as she smirked. Vincent turned around from his place on the couch, finger to his lips, “Shh. ‘Laska’s sleeping.” The boy lisped, petting the top of the kittens head as she purred happily in his lap. Tasha chuckled at that, looking at the slightly discolored water that settled on her finger from Maddie’s hair.

“She probably is waiting for that. But I’m not stupid enough to do that. He tried mailing me my engagement ring and keeps sending me flowers. I gave the ring away.” She told her easily. “And on top of that I’ve been looking for a new place so he won’t know where I live anymore.”

Tasha grew a bit more somber, cocking her head to the side. She wasn’t really sure what it was like to have a stalker - she knew what it was like to be one, sort of (she’d spied on her ex-husband and his girlfriend after she found out he was cheating on her). “Should have sold it,” she pointed out, “Do you need any legal help?”

stellaursharpg:

Stella looked at Tasha before looking down again, then up once more with a grin. “You having a staring contest with my stomach Tash?” She asked with a small laugh, shifting slightly in the comfy chair to help put her back into a better position, leaning into one of the pillows. “Well…I asked him if he wanted to be there when it was born. Which he said yes to, so he’s uh, going to be in the delivery room.” Stella smiled slightly, it was a nice thing she was able to tell her friend, a positive thing that had come from Jax being one of the potential fathers. He seemed to want to be involved, even if it didn’t end up being his, which was of great comfort. “No, no I don’t know the sex yet. I don’t know if I want to find out in advance. Did you know?” 

“I just miss being pregnant, is all.” Tasha admitted quietly, offering Stella a small smile. “It was incredible.” Not everybody felt the same way, she knew that. Sitting back so that she could focus her attention on Stella, Tasha nodded in understanding. “At least that’s something.” Tasha offered gently, smiling in return. Regardless of whether he was the father, it seemed that Jax clearly had his heart in the right place in regards to Stella and this child. “I didn’t know,” The doctor shook her head slightly, “But my ex-husband knew - it was a torturous game, really. But I was glad I waited.”
