[crickets chirping – muffled music]
Oscar: And you definitely don’t want to go home?
[Levi shook his head and rubbed at his eyes, feeling far more vulnerable than he was comfortable with]
Robin: His parents aren’t home and I think they’d be kinda like, uh-.. not nice about it, y’know?
Levi: My s-sister was gonna babysit me after her curfew at t-ten.
Oscar: Okay, well.. how ‘bout we get you checked out first, then you can wait at ours? We can drop you off later like nothing happened, how’s that for a plan-.. Robin?
[The knot in Robin’s stomach eased as Levi nodded along with him, swiping at his runny nose with a sodden sleeve]
Oscar: Alrighty, let’s go.
[Levi stiffened briefly as Oscar easily scooped him up and slung him against his shoulder]
Oscar: You okay?
[Robin nodded with a faint smile as Oscar ruffled his damp hair]
Oscar: You did good, bud.
[Robin’s classmate couldn’t help but relax as he clung to Oscar and the warmth that emanated from him, both tangible and not. He might’ve looked scary to begin with but he’d shown Levi more sympathy and compassion in the last five minutes than he’d received from his own family in the last few years]
…
Oscar: Aren’t you supposed to be retired?
Sidney: Aren’t you lucky I’m not!
Oscar: Oh, for sure.. heaven forbid another doctor do the exact same job as you.
[Sidney scoffed incredulously]
Oscar: Really though…
Sidney: I’m not bloody well dead yet! I just cover a few casual shifts here n’ there is all.
Oscar: Hm-.. better get this guy home n’ properly dry, anyway.
Sidney: Yeah, he’ll be alright-.. y’know he’s just as reckless as you, right?
Robin: Uh, I’m still here.
Oscar: I hear ya! Sid unfortunately has a point though, you shouldn’t-…
Robin: Don’t try n’ save someone in oceans or rivers ‘cause the current will get you both, blah blah-.. pools don’t count!
Sidney: He’s a smartass like you too.

thinking about an AU where Andrew’s memory starts to fade. just a touch—not to the levels of amnesia or anything like that, but in the sense that remembering everything in crystal-clear, high-def surround sound replay is no longer a coping mechanism his body relies on. the pattern recognition and hyper-vigilance becoming unnecessary as his life tones down, as he settles into something quiet, if not peaceful. that twinge of despair when his brain flicks back to pull a memory and apply it to a situation, only to find it blurry and half-remembered. realizing the vast majority of his childhood became a blur sometime in the past few months. it would change so much for him, i think, but it would open up space for him to grow into later…

unpopular opinion for this area of tumblr, beware+also abuse talk warning
admittedly, all the super casual bashing of saikis dad makes me really uncomfortable, like i dont totally disagree but i wish we didnt just all do it in the middle of other completely innocent headcanoning 😭 its never tagged or warned..
my personal opinions on kuniharu are not as extreme as some are on here, like i think he sucks but i dont think hes a genuinely bad person, he was just thrown into a situation he didnt know how to handle.. he reminds me of those parents who prepare to have a baby and get pregnant on purpose, but then the baby has a disability and suddenly, everything changes.. because they didnt prepare for this unlikely scenario, but it happened anyway, and now they have to figure out where to go from here.. kurumi and kuniharu BOTH made mistakes and didnt handle their genius/psychic kids in ways they shouldve, but its because they werent prepared for it
