My OCs are both wildly craving attention, I'll be more on Lucanis and Frank's blogs weekend, but today and tomorrow I'm gonna focus more on stuff I owe and sending out memes and reaching out for interactions on Esha ( @anothercrowbastard ) and Stix ( @stixnbonez ), so please find me there and follow them if you haven't already, they have verses galore and I can throw them into whatever verse/fandom/media you want fairly easily as long as I know the material a bit.

@lockedfinn asked

[ TXT ] : do you want the good news, the bad news, or the chaotic news first?

It was his weekend with the kids, and he'd been called for a random drug screening. It would absolutely fucking figure.

Thankfully, Finn was willing to watch the kids for him just long enough to be able to make a quick run to the hospital and right back to their apartment. Ever since he offered Finn a place to live closer to the hospital so he wasn't sleeping in his car between shifts, it seemed like the nurse was making sure he was doing everything he could to pay him back. And Frank wasn't the kind of guy to take advantage of that too often, not anymore at least, but this had been a tough spot for him. Besides, every time the kids were around them, they seemed to like him and they had fun.

Finn, it turned out, was pretty good with kids.

So, when Frank got into his car after doing the drug screening and got it started, he heard a text come in just as he was buckling his seatbelt. Looking at the text, he couldn't help the little bit of a smirk as he shook his head. He knew everything was likely fine, Finn he'd learned by now liked to tease and that usually meant things were good.

[txt; finn] as long as I come home and the apartment isn't on fire how chaotic can it really be?

Frank smiled to himself as he sent the text, and set his phone aside before putting the car in drive. It wasn't more than a fifteen minute drive to their place, and while Frank wasn't thrilled at the reason he had to take this little trip in the first place, he almost guaranteed whatever he found when he got home the kids would be happy and having fun.

"No - stop complaining - you're laying down." || from the ask box || @pittres

“This wasn’t supposed to be a house call, I just can’t get my window open.”

She’d gotten the apartment for cheap. Ancient building, and sitting next to a church. Close enough that the sense of protection crept all the way through her living space. Ideal, except the tiny rental had windows that had seemingly been painted shut, and her landlord wouldn’t answer, and she felt like she was burning up.

Sure, maybe she’d neglected cleaning out the cuts across her palms as she was moving, and yes — maybe they were clearly infected now. She was exhausted. There were boxes on boxes still to unpack. There probably would be for weeks. She hadn’t needed his admittedly right diagnosis, she’d just needed help with the window.

“You lay down.” Maybe that came out wrong. She flushes. “Sorry, no, I — I’m fine. Really. I just need some air…”

"Liv, you're not fine." Frank said, going in to full on doctor mode as he guided her as gently yet firmly as he could to sit on a kitchen chair. She looked ragged, clammy, and he swore the circles under her eyes could rival his own after pulling a 36 hour shift.

Already he could feel she was burning up with a fever from how hot her arms felt.

"While you might need some air, you also need some care." Frank said, and paused realizing what he just said and how it sounded and he laughed to himself and shook his head. "Sorry, bad dad joke. But, you are sick. Just, sit back while I go grab my kit from my car, all right?"

Luckily, he'd been on his way to do street team work anyways, something that McKay had gotten him into and he found some real joy working it. Liv had texted him she needed some help, and her new place was on the way so he saw no issue in stopping by to see what he could do for her.

And man, was he glad she did. Those cuts on her hand always kinda worried him, though she claimed it was just because of work and nothing serious. They look self inflicted, and while Frank didn't want to pry into what was going on, he also worried about her; as a patient and a friend.

Returning back with the med kit, Frank pulled a chair up to sit beside her and brought out a forehead thermometer first, giving it a swipe across her scalp, and sure enough she was feverish. Examining again the cuts on her fingers, he could see where they were red and inflamed, and he gave a sigh as he looked up at her with a raised brow.

"They're definitely infected, Liv. You should really let me take care of 'em, clean them out and patch them up. Then I've got a shot of antibiotics I can give ya, and I'll write you a prescription for a small dose over the next couple days to make sure the infection all gets knocked out. Okay?"

@horrorthrives asked

“ You look so biteable today. ” from eric

"Jesus Christ, do you have to sneak up on me like that??"

The doctor is busy checking on his newest patient when Eric does that thing where he just appears beside him and it makes Frank jump. His patient is someone that one of Fangtasia's patrons had gotten a bit excessive with in the back rooms. Frank's just glad he was able to get to her before she bled out, and he hopes Eric just lets him continue on taking care of her. She's already got color in her cheeks, so she probably doesn't need any more blood, but she's still showing signs of dehydration.

Sighing, he uses the opportunity to slink away from beneath Eric's all-too-close and towering presence. Frank isn't entirely used to being the shortest one, and it's a bit unnerving; just like everything that has happened to him since moving to Bon Tamps. And here he thought moving to a small Louisiana town would bring him some peace of mind.

Instead, he finds himself the personal physician to a vampire Sherriff -- which is not a sentence he ever thought would apply to his life -- treating the humans he and his clan or whatever they want to call themselves feed on.

"You know, you gotta tell your guys they need to go easy..." Frank says, once he's satisfied with the distance between them as he walks around the patient's bed to the medical fridge and pulls out a bag of saline.

"Drain all the humans dry and what's gonna be left to drink besides that synthetic stuff?"

There's something I realized the other night about Frank that is kinda spoilery if you haven't seen all of season 2 yet, no real major plot point, but yeah.

The beginning of season 2 takes places exactly 10 months after season 1. Frank says in the last episode of season 2 that he is 186 days sober. That just a few days over 6 months. Likely, Frank has gone to a 60-90 day rehab, those are the typical ones for addictions like alcohol, opioids and benzos.

So, I wouldn't be surprised if right out of rehab, Frank relapsed. If he was addicted to benzos, it likely means he's also alcoholic as those drugs affect the brain in the same way, if you're addicted to one you are most likely addicted to the other. Sobriety would hinge on not partaking of either drug, so Frank could have either relapsed on benzos or alcohol.

Given that information, I constructed a bit of a timeline for Frank on what happened between seasons 1 and seasons 2

Frank gets himself into rehab right away, since season 1 in ten months before season 2 and season 2 starts on July 4th weekend, season 1 takes place the weekend of September 4th and so Frank likely checks in by mid-September, depending on severity of his addiction/withdrawals and availability at a facility.

90 day rehab would have him out just before Christmas. This is definitely a stressful time for him and Abby and the kids, he missed Thanksgiving with them with at best a dinner at the rehab facility with all the other recovering addicts and their families. He's still not back to work yet either. Now, if he's got 186 days on July 4th, that means his new sobriety date would be December 30th, just before New Years, which means he probably had a relapse either right before or right after Christmas.

Considering he's gone for 10 months total, I'm guessing he went back into rehab for at least another 30 days because that is an option when you relapse, most places will take you back on essentially a "recovery refresher" course, anywhere from 2 to 4 weeks, or 30 days, depending on what your insurance allows.

So, he probably goes back for another month, and he gets out right before Valentine's. This most likely puts even more stress on Abby, who by now may have had to get a job if she was a SAHM which is pretty implied, or she had to get a second job to support the family while Frank is getting the help he needs.

This definitely, definitely points to their marriage not being as happy as Frank wants everyone to believe it is. Addicts, even addicts in recovery practicing a program of vigorous honesty, lie. It's one of the worst habits to break. So I'm guessing either shortly before or after Valentine's day, the separation happens. Frank gives Abby the house, Abby and Frank's parents' help with the kids and Frank gets himself a cheap little loft in Pittsburgh close to the hospital.

So from about mid-February to July, Frank is living in the loft on his own, probably gets to see the kids on the weekends he doesn't work. Reads to them over video chats for bedtime stories etc. And that brings us to present time.

This probably explains why he hasn't talked to many people between season 1 and 2. Not just because no one reached out, but also because he probably didn't reach out to anyone. This is why he tells everyone that things are fine with him and the family, why he is rushing through his apologies.

Frank is still teetering on not quite getting recovery, he's still got some work to do before he makes his amends, and instead he's rushing through it. Probably because he's avoiding the most important amends besides the one he makes to Robby; it's the one he has to make to his (soon to be ex) wife and his kids.

Recovery is tough, not everybody gets it the first, second, or third time around, but the important thing is to never stop putting in the work. I know as I write Frank, that is how I'm going to take it, but I'm anxious to see where season 3 will take us with him and his recovery.
