Thank you to @thebumblecee @chaotictarlos and @meditating-honey-badger for the tag! I had no idea what to share- but my next goal is to finish off the AU weekend fic (featuring officer Strand and paramedic Reyes) so here’s a bit more of that. (Tags are not working for me to search, so sorry if this is a snip I’ve shared before. I can’t tell!)

Carlos chuckles and sets the fruit in a bowl and takes it to the table for later. When he returns a few minutes later, TK, still scratching, offers to set the table.
“What’s going on here?” Carlos asks. “You okay? You have a little something right there,” he points at a red splotchy spot on TK’s neck.
“I feel just a little funky. And I’m kind of itchy.”
“Like, all over?” Carlos asks, concerned. “Can I see?”
TK rolls up the sleeves on his sweater; his arms are covered in red welts.
“What the?”
“You're not having trouble breathing?” Carlos asks.
“No,” TK says. “I’m okay.”
“Those are definitely hives. Are you allergic to anything?”
“No? I mean, nothing I’ve ever come across before.”
Carlos makes a distressed noise. “I think I have benadryl. Come with me.” Carlos hands him a bottle of water.
TK stands and follows Carlos down the hall to the bathroom. He rummages around through the cabinets and finally finds a box of bright pink pills. He pops a couple out of the blister pack and hands them over. TK takes them and chases them down with a swig of water.
“You’re sure you can breathe okay?” Carlos asks, “we can call you an ambulance.”

Tagging: it’s late so anyone who hasn’t been tagged yet. Yes, that means you. 😍
