Hiiiiii, so I was totally inspired by @unfetteredautism and @tcnysncrk to start this SMAU fic! so check them out !!
this is gonna be a parental rabbot fic with a heavy focus on Victoria being their daughter of sorts. blame or thank my mcu phase that lasted a decade for the avengers tower pop tart vent-ifcation of The Pitt I'm going to do.
also totally not projecting on this at alll!! ;P its a universal experience to suffer when you have brown parents/j or am i.
sounds like a fake excuse but really please excuse the odd posting days while I take care of my aunts daughter (my cousin) while she is in rehab after being hit with a big rig, thankfully she only has a broken arm and two fractured ribs!
a/n:pleasepleaseplease suspend your belief at the medical inaccuracies that i committed so that it fit my narrative. if ur in the medical field PLEASE LOOK AWAY I am not looking up how residency/match day/rotation/med students work
btw both jack and victoria have a hugh aversion to eggs lol. they do not fuck with them at all.
a/n: bear with me plzzzz so sorry for late ass shit post. taking care of a 4 month old 24/5 is so exhausting holy shit. IM NOT EVEN GETTING PAID FOR TS
From a heated rivalry during their residency, to trauma bonding friends, to becoming each other's person, and finally to lovers the Abbot-Robinavitch husbands mutually agreed on cutting back hours at the ED not only for their physical/mental health but for the well being of their marriage. After the disaster that was Pittfest and the near close call on the roof at the end that nearly broke Jack, Robby realized that his borderline masochistic behavior wasn’t just hurting him but his husband as well. It wasn’t something instantaneous, it accumulated over the days after. Jack started pulling away, stopped asking about his day, sent more emoji replies than normal, the checks in stopped.
This scared Robby, he worried Jack had finally realized how fucked up he was. It reached a point where hope of the rough patch resolving on its own diminished everyday that passed, this couldn’t be ignored. Robby decided that he wasn’t going to let Jack leave no matter what.
Once his shift was over and a very cordial handover was exchanged, he sat himself down on the couch and waited for his husband to come home. He stayed awake with the help of a couple glasses of bourbon, which had him sobbing by the time Jack passed through the front door.
The apathy Jack carried throughout those past days dissolved as he explained to a snot nosed Robby that seeing him so close to the edge metaphorically and literally, scared Jack. The prospect that he would lose another spouse, someone he loved with all his being, frightened him so much he decided to shut out any feeling he had of Robby, so the pain wouldn’t hurt as much when Robby decided the love they had for each other wasn’t enough to keep him tethered in this mortal plane anymore.
By the end of the day Jack’s gaze locked on Robby as he was being led ahead through the doors of the inpatient psychiatric hospital. The only thing that held back his tears back was Robby's promise that he would really try and give this a shot.
The events that molded Robby into the man that walked through those doors could never be erased or forgotten but with time they became easier to think about, to talk about, and to live with.
After figuring out ways to cope, starting SSRI’s, bi-weekly therapy, and learning that he doesn’t always have to shoulder everyone's burden, that he's allowed to break, Robby was finally in a place in his life that was stable.
Which is why he was worried about Victoria Javadi, the only child of the merci-less Eileen Shamsi, disrupting his new found routines.
Bless his husband's heart, but the cynicism that still lingers in the depths of Robby's brain knows that Shamsi and her husband may have kicked Victoria out but they will never let her go after putting all that work into their prodigy. The looming threat of Jacks heart break hangs over Robby as he realizes that Victoria has already burred into his heart. Now Robby can only hold his husband's hand and offer any support when things inevitably get complicated, more complicated then taking in a 20 year old medical prodigy who was also your coworker.
Robby shifted his backpack off his shoulder as he stood in front of his and Jack's modest four bedroom house in the suburb of Duquesne Heights that Robby inherited from his bubbe after she passed. Steeling himself with a deep breath Robby opened the front door and walked in, finding Jack and Victoria huddled closely together looking over Jack's phone.
Yeah , Robby thought to himself, he’s gonna try his best and make sure to pick up the pieces of Jack when the inescapable storm that is the Shamsi-Javadi power couple hits them.
a/n: I gave the power of premonition to robby/j sorry y'all I know this isn't SM or Text but there's only so much you can actually deliver without actually writing.

a/n: oh no a jam packed update I think we all know what that means, I might not post so soon afterwards sorry
Victoria is on all parts of the internet, and she definitely went through a MCU phase in college (13 when she should’ve been in middle school), and she had her canon event where her daddy issues led her to write self insert!daughter fanfics.
Vic is barely following jack? but not mike yet? I wonder why she's so apprehensive about letting mike see who's she's posted. okay but like mama needs cuddles and comfort from his duckling, jack loves it so much that hs husband isn't home alone anymore while he's at work and that he and vic are getting close enough to be comforting. oh he wants to get pregnant so bad.
a/n: okay crazy how I started this more of jack & vic father daughter and this is becoming more robby & vic mama daughter
“Hey!” Jack exclaimed as he looked up from his phone, nearly hitting Victoria's face, to see Robby by the living room doorway, a soft smile framing his face. He looked back at Victoria and could see the weariness that permeated throughout her body.
“hi Dr. Robby.” Victoria said meekly, tapering it off with one of her nervous giggles. Jack threw Robby a look with raised eyebrows essentially telling him be chill.
“Hey Victoria, and it’s just Robby out of work, yeah? Michael, Mike even take your pick.” He tossed out what he hoped was a disarming smile, as he walked towards Jack pressing a kiss at the top of his head.
Victoria let out another nervous giggle as she watched them. “I’m, yeah okay, yeah. you can call me Vic or Victoria which you already do.” Another nervous giggle as she looked around his face instead of directly at him.
Jack couldn’t help but cover his mouth, hiding his smile at the natural state of awkwardness Victoria exudes.
“How was your shift?” Jack said grunting as he got up from the couch, reaching for his crutches that rested on the coffee table.
“Wait time was down to 4 hours.” Robby replied, ducking his head down to properly give his husband a kiss, smiling into it as Jack gave him a happy smile.
“Wow, good shift then.” Robby mmhmm’d as he leant in for another kiss, not being able to resist making Jack chuckle.
“Well me and Vic were looking for places to grab take out from.” Jack said, moving towards the hallway by the front door, sitting on the bench. “You wanna be our deliberator? can’t choose between thai and sushi.” he pulled off his shrunken sock, giving his residual limb a quick massage, before pulling on his prosthetic sock.
“Why choose? How about both? special occasion.” Robby said as he knelt down in front of Jack buckling in his prosthetic leg.
“Great, it’s settled!” he popped up, spry for a man who’s gonna hit 50 soon, Robby followed him up accompanied with the sound of his knees popping, and the obligatory old man grunt. “Vic’s already told me her go to orders, I'll get our usuals.” Dropping a quick peck on Robby’s lips, staying close enough to whisper a soft try not to use sarcasm or be snarky, you’re an authority figure, your word is law to her. He leaned to the side and stuck out two thumbs up behind Robby’s back to Victoria with a quick bob of his head.
“You’re leaving?!” Victoria yelped, coming to stand.
“Be back in a jif.” He grabbed his keys and was out the door before she could think of a retort.
Was it not very nice of him to throw both Robby and Victoria into the deep end and leave them by themselves to break the ice? Yes Mike thought and so did Vic. Both immediately looking at each other, Victoria gave him a small smile that turned out to be a grimace.
a/n: in the case of 20 year old Victoria Javadi...Robby you ARE the mother!
Family Don’t End In Blood: The Pitt SMAU snippet 1 Robby
masterpost/tagging/notification system
Thinking about Robby who is adamant about not getting too close to Victoria knowing that Shamsi will get her way, that she’ll never let Victoria actually go, and that it’ll break Jacks heart. YET still setting up what Jack calls play dates with Vic and Emma the new nurse.
Robby who huffs and puffs every time Park the Shark talks to Vic, knowing Park is soft with her because he mentored under Shamsi and in turn has known her since she was very young.
Robby who always asks if she’d like to accompany him whether it be the grocery store, tire shop, or picking up dry cleaning.
Robby who lets Victoria get one thing from each store.
Robby who watches youtube videos with Vic in the living room even though most of the time he ends up falling asleep snoring on the recliner.
Robby who takes her to the bank to set up an account, checking and savings, that he personally funds.
Robby the one who ends up crying in Jacks arms after Victoria tells him, while loopy from the anesthesia of getting her wisdom teeth removed, that she wished they could’ve been her parents her whole life.
a/n: im not researching allat doctor shit so i am quiet literally pulling this shit out of my ass :) anyways happy easter to all those who celebrate, im going to be enjoying carne asada at my brothers so fucking ready to eat 🤤
