    Summary

    One of the main characters - the only surviving witness to a murder - has just woken from a coma. Not only is she entirely cognizant, but the first thing that the subtitles say she asks for is a lawyer.

    “What are you fucking giggling about?”

    The other person that’s been paying attention is Flambae. He’s right next to Robert on the couch, his arm slung over the top behind his head. One foot is propped up on the other knee, also pointing towards Robert, which has him caged in the corner by the arm rest. It’s probably some fucked-up power move. Robert has been ignoring it just to spite him.

    “It’s just not how comas work,” Robert shrugs.

    “Right, and you know because you’re a fucking doctor,” Flambae quips back.

    “I know because I was in one, asshole.”

    ------

    During a quiet night in, Robert realizes that his coma and injuries aren't common knowledge among Z-Team.

    Most of them take the information in stride with jokes aplenty.

    Flambae does not.

    Flustering A Stone Wall
    SUMMARY:
    Z-Team's dispatcher has been described, both by them and others, as a 'perpetually dead inside motherfucker'. He never seems to get bashful, or worked up, at any of their goddamn flirtations.

    Maybe they've just been going about it the wrong way
    [Or: different times Z-Team has accidentally flustered Robert through displays of care]

    Summary

    "It gets worse, by the way. Severe insomnia can cause confusion, hallucinations, paranoia, problems with short-term memory and oh, yeah. You can totally die from it."

    "Not true," Robert mumbled, "You don't die from insomnia. You can die from the health complications caused by severe sleep deprivation though."

    "Great, you can die from the fucking health complications then! This shit's serious, Robert! And not normal!"

    -

    Or: Robert's no good, very bad, really, really long day.
