Ten Degrees of Separation – (Chapter: Recasting the Primal Scene)
"That’s as menacing as it is reassuring."
"Rather like the situation."
"So what are we supposed to do?"
"Go forward, Abby. I don’t really see any other choice. We go forward."
Chapter Four: Truth Be Told
"Blue is definitely her color."
"Oh yeah. Those eyes. That hair. Blue’s the way to go."
"Although I noticed Weaver was more interested in that black silk camisole underneath."
"You think she did that deliberately to drive the chief nuts?"
"I don’t know, but she’s definitely dressing for somebody today. I mean, normally, she looks hot– but it felt like somebody turned the thermostat up about ten degrees when she walked down here this morning."
Timing had to be everything, Abby thought irritably as she stepped inadvertently into the lively conversation taking place in the middle of the admit desk. And hers sucked. It didn’t take a trained or particularly clever monkey to figure out what– or, more accurately, who– the huddled forms were talking about. "Guys… can we just give it a rest?"
She watched Randi and Carter exchange significant glances and wanted to smack the resident for his deliberate indiscretion. "So…" Randi leaned closer, propping both elbows on the admit desk and resting her chin in her hands. "I hear that you and Legs have been hanging together. What gives? She and Weaver an item?"
"What she and Weaver are is none of our business."
The coolness in Abby’s tone didn’t deter the desk clerk. "Carter said you’d say that."
"Give it up, Randi," Carter chided in a singsong voice. "She’s more interested in playing Viola to Legaspi’s Olivia than in giving you the scoop."
"Huh?"
Abby bristled at the nasty undercurrent in Carter’s tone. "Don’t listen to him, he’s just being an elitist swine."
"Whatever. But seriously…"
"Randi, I’m not going to discuss your theories about Legaspi and Weaver."
"I though it was Kim," Carter interjected. "What happened? You guys have a fight in Exam 1?"
She turned on him. "Shut up, John. I mean it. Right now."

I have to admit that I stopped watching ER several years ago, but after reading this, two things came to mind. 1. If I could have watched this story, with this dialogue on my TV screen I would still be watching faithfully each and every week. 2. This was a great reminder of why I shouldn’t ever work in a hospital…way too much gossip!!!! LOL Wonderful story…beautiful writing. Thank you for posting this here. And thank you for inspiring Jacky. The degrees of separation continue to prove true. While you were writing this, did you ever think that because of someone somewhere reading it, that a fan site would be established for a completely different show, that would in turn change thousands of lives all around the world? I know, amazing isn’t it…the power of a story. Thanks again.

Gosh! This is fantastic. I love all the characters on ER and you’ve done a truly excellent job with all the conflicting emotions and the power of irresistible forces of attraction between Abby and Kim. I enjoyed every word.
