random jack abbot headcannons that i choose to believe are true;
⟢ absolutely does that dad thing where he falls asleep on the couch, open mouth snoring. when someone wakes him up he SWEARS he “wasn’t even sleeping.”
⟢ loves the princess bride with a passion. can quote pretty much the entire movie, still laughs at every joke like it’s the first time he’s hearing it.
⟢ CANNOT visit animal shelters. will come home with every animal there. especially if he sees a dog with three legs.
⟢ if someone/something steps on or runs over his prosthetic & there’s a wall behind him, he 100% will slip off the leg, & scream as loud as he can, followed by; “MY LEG!? YOU RIPPED OFF MY LEG?” (first time he did it to whitaker he almost passed out.)
⟢ says “what are you, a cop?” if people ask him a lot of questions.
⟢ is actually a pretty good singer, get him drunk & he’ll do karaoke.
⟢ likes to hum to himself. turns beet red if he’s ever caught.
⟢ talks to animals like they’re babies. will pretend to wait for them to answer & have a full conversation with them.
⟢ if someone walks away while he’s talking to them, he’ll finish the conversation for them; “oh yeah, thanks dr. abbot, that’s great dr. abbot” & throw a hand in the air like he’s never been more offended.
⟢ once he got comfortable enough without his leg, he absolutely went as a pirate for halloween a few times.
⟢ LOVES scaring robby like it gives him air. will wait around corners, walk up silently behind him. anything to watch him jump. he’s the bane of robby’s existence.
⟢ says “do a flip” if he finds robby on the roof (on the safe side of the railing only !! & if he’s not crying.)
⟢ plays into the whole “grumpy attending” role way too much. he never lets anyone know what he’s thinking. except dana, she always knows.
⟢ takes his coffee black & bitter, sighs like it’s the best thing he’s ever tasted.
⟢ exclusively wears sweatpants & those dri fit workout shirts at home.
⟢ actually very sweet & caring/serious when he needs to be. don’t mess with any of his med students/interns unless you wanna lose a hand. he doesn’t play about their safety. calls all of them “kid.”
⟢ loves a good sunrise. he’ll never say it but that’s one of his favorite parts about working nights.
⟢ he & robby carved their initials in the railing on the roof together one night after a hard shift.
⟢ picks up randomly chronically online phrases & uses them to make the med students & interns cringe. his favorite is “i have nothing appropriate to say”, if he doesn’t want to comment. no matter what the context is. he thinks it’s hilarious.
