Thinking about Will Solace in the Pitt and the fact that Micheal Yew and Lee Fletcher's are deaths that define who he is. Lee's death put him in charge of the infirmary and Micheal's death made him head counselor.
Thinking about the fact that Micheal died close to when the Doors of Death opened. And he may not have gotten a proper funeral so his soul might not have been able to cross the river styx.
And then one day a man comes into the ED with his little kid. The kid has some injury, maybe an illness. and Will glances at the kid and his gaze softens because wow does he remind him of his little siblings. And then he looks at the man and freezes. Because he knows him.
Or he did once.
Black hair, brown eyes. Still short as hell, but not as short as he had once been. Probably 5'2, 5'3. He had the same worried expression that Micheal always used to get when Will or one of his little siblings got hurt. The same scowl of annoyance that hid concern.
He introduces himself as "Mike Davis, and this is my kid William. He goes by Billy"
And Will feels the floor drop out from under his feet.
