Blog Deliverable #2:

(“Oregon State Hospital,” 2010)

In 1843, the first 'hospital' in the Oregon Territory was opened by James Hawthorne. Just a few years after its foundation, the Oregon Hospital for the Insane proceeded with its first mass grave burials for inmates at Lone Fir Cemetery in SE Portland. Since its final closure in 1883, an estimated 130 bodies are thought to have been buried in the cemetery. In the 1940s, Multnomah County built an office building over the graves, which was torn down in 2005. Plans were made but never completed, and it remains an unused gravel lot (Mental Health Association of Portland (2013).

In 1868, Hillside Farm for the Poor opened on Canyon Road near the Portland Zoo. It closed down in 1910 after members of local charities reported the building's unsanitary and deplorable conditions, which were expected to aid those with mental health conditions. Remains were discovered during the exhibit construction of the Oregon Zoo in 2008 and again in 2013. The remains were reburied and not memorialized (Mental Health Association of Portland (2013).

In 1923, a eugenics law passed in Oregon, allowing and even requiring the sterilization of "persons, male or female, who are feeble-minded, insane, epileptic, habitual criminals, moral degenerates, and sexual perverts, who are or ... who are likely to become a menace to society" (Mental Health Association of Portland (2013). Forced sterilization was routinely required to be granted release from a mental facility (Mental Health Association of Portland (2013).

In 1942, close to 500 patients and staff members at the Oregon State Hospital were accidentally poisoned by a patient helping in the kitchen. Forty-six were killed, but conditions did not change (Mental Health Association of Portland (2013).

In 1944, more than 20 deaths occurred at the Jail Drunk Tank, yet no changes occurred (Mental Health Association of Portland (2013).

In 1963, President Kennedy signed the federal Mental Retardation Facilities and Community Mental Health Construction Act, launching a national effort to move psychiatric patients from hospitals to community-based clinics. This initiative largely failed. State hospitals closed down, but cities and counties could not provide adequate services (Mental Health Association of Portland (2013).

In 1983, the Pacific Gateway Hospital & Counseling Centers opened as Oregon's sole private psychiatric hospital. It closed in 2001 after accusations of security issues and the murder of patient Jose Mejia Poot by three police officers. It was bulldozed in 2002 (Mental Health Association of Portland (2013).

In 2003, Kendra James was killed during a traffic stop by a Portland Police Officer. Her death began a series of high-profile police-involved deaths of people impaired by mental illnesses, including James Jahar Perez, Raymond Gwerder, James Chasse, Keaton Otis, Jack Collins, Aaron Campbell, Brad Morgan, and Billy Simms (Mental Health Association of Portland (2013).

In 2007, Mayor Tom Potter created a Mental Health Task Force, which called for the retraining of police officers (Mental Health Association of Portland (2013).

In 2010, after years of legal and political damage to Portland leaders following police-involved deaths of impaired individuals, a lawsuit was brought by the Department of Justice. They settled for many reforms to police training, procedures, public oversight, and urgent care for people with mental health conditions. No police officers were held accountable for the murders of the subjects in the lawsuit (Mental Health Association of Portland (2013).

In 2019-2021, Oregon had the fastest-growing rate of drug overdose deaths among 15-19-year-olds (Wilson, 2023).

In 2022, Oregon ranked miserably in a national report published by Mental Health America, indicating the highest prevalence of mental illness in the entire country (Manfield, 2022).

The painful effects of untreated mental health conditions that we see today are not a new phenomenon. The longstanding history of violence and apathy towards people experiencing mental health crises in Oregon by government and state officials has created a culture of carelessness at the bureaucratic level. It has been left to community-based organizations to initiate the work that has yet to be seen in caring for members of the city in need of support.

In an interview with KGW News, Portland residents reflect on the homeless camps across the street from their homes. Nathan Lamb comments, "At 8 o'clock, there are folks who are smoking meth, they're shooting up. There's domestic violence, and it's absolutely absurd" (KGW News, 2022). Nathan spent months attempting to get the city's attention, writing hundreds of emails and making relentless calls. "No one responds. No one seems to care" (KGW News, 2022). Eventually, the Rapid Response Team showed up to sweep the camp. A homeless woman living at this camp gave her insight. "We're human too. You know what I mean? We're just going through hard times right now" (KGW News, 2022). Commenting on the sweep of the camp by the Rapid Response team, she asserted, "We appreciate that, but two seconds later, all that stuff is about to be back on the ground. You know what I mean? Because we don't have a place to stay, we're on drugs, and that's just the way it is. If you move someone away from the situation, you've got to give them a solution. Because there's a problem, but what are you going to do to solve it?" (KGW News, 2022).

Homeless encampment removals are a highly utilized method of treatment against the homelessness crisis in Portland in recent years. In October 2022, 87 camps were swept in a single week. Throughout the rest of October and November, the average number of sweeps increased fivefold compared to the first three months of the year (Hayden, 2022).

These sweeps increased dramatically in April and May when Ted Wheeler ordered an unprecedented mass sweep of the Old Town neighborhood in an attempt to clean the city at the expense of the former residents of these camps. "It's unclear where the people who lived in those camps have gone. But Portland-area shelters don't have room for most of them, and city and county data indicate most people uprooted from camping on public land don't want to live in group shelters" (Hayden, 2022).

Many outreach workers and advocates for homeless individuals have also commented that when attempting to find beds for people, it could be nearly impossible to find open beds that fit the individual's personal criteria, in cases where a family shelter or domestic violence shelter is necessary (Hayden, 2022).

Kaia Sand, the director of the nonprofit Street Roots in Portland, explained the hesitation of unhoused individuals to accept the resources offered at camp sweeps. "When the options are about moving into a space that is not housing and might create new problems, lead to losing one's autonomy, adding to mental health stressors, that can feel like a less good option than just staying put where at least you know what you've got" (Hayden, 2022).

Other methods have been tried in attempts to control the damage of substance abuse, housing, and mental health crises expressing themselves in the city.

Portland Street Response, accessible through a 911 call, is a program affiliated with Portland Fire & Rescue that provides ongoing assistance to people experiencing mental health and behavioral health crises (Portland Street Response, 2022).

In June of this year, the city of Portland approved a public ban that prohibits camping on public property from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m., along with introducing stricter rules on camping during all other hours (Zielinski, 2023b). The policy states that people cannot build a fire, use a gas heater, build temporary structures, litter, or dig into the ground at their camping location. Similarly to the camping sweeps, this method intends to benefit business owners and onlookers of the city while disregarding unhoused people entirely. Violators will receive a written warning upon the first offense, with a $100 fine or a jail sentence of up to 30 days imposed for a third violation (Zielinski, 2023b).

(Zielinski, 2023a).

Despite the ban's approval, many people vehemently oppose the policy and have spoken out about the risks to OPB. "Street Roots vendor George McCarthy, who was homeless in Portland for 10 years, said, "This proposition will immediately make your life criminal just for being alive. This will make it much harder for the most vulnerable people in the city to live" (Zielinski, 2023a). Michelle Hornbeck (pictured left), who has previously experienced homelessness, expressed concerns about women and children who are homeless and the unrealistic expectation of sleeping at night. "We don't sleep at night. That's when the mother in us comes out, that's when the survivor in us comes out" (Zielinski, 2023a). "Sandra Comstock, director of homeless service provider Hygiene 4 All, noted that "slapping $100 fines on homeless Portlanders will result in warrants and jail time that raise, rather than lower, barriers to health and housing" (Zielinski, 2023a).

Brandi Tuck, director of Portland Homeless Family Solutions, criticized Wheeler's decision, explaining that moving unhoused people into mass group homes is inhumane, as these individuals are likely highly distressed and emotionally aroused (Zielinski, 2022). "So we're talking about taking folks who are in survival mode and putting them all in mass shelters and expecting them to follow rules and get along with each other? Their brains are not capable of doing that. That exacerbates that distress response. We are creating neurobiological harm to these folks" (Zielinski, 2022).

Katrina Holland of JOIN argued that her organization has collaborated with landlords in securing potential "master leasing" apartments that could house people in a matter of days (Zielinski, 2022). This process entails organizations making agreements with private landlords to cover rent costs for houseless individuals. This is a promising new solution that opts for permanent, private housing over short-term shelter. Paired with rigorous funding for substance abuse treatment, it could be hugely successful. "There are a lot of proposals on the table that are proven to work. The city has just ignored them" (Zielinski, 2022).

In 2020, Measure 110 was passed, an act that decriminalized the possession of small amounts of drugs and directed revenue from marijuana sales to fund drug treatment and recovery services. In a preliminary report published in February of this year, the Measure succeeded in helping more than 60,000 people who were struggling with addiction reach services (Best, 2023). However, comments from unhoused individuals communicate the persevering need for housing alongside addiction treatment. "A couple of weeks ago, I didn't care if I died," said Castle. "There's no detox here. The hospital won't do anything for you; they'll give you a shot and send you back out on the streets" (Best, 2023).

The passing and implementation of Measure 110 is a hopeful beacon of progress in the uphill battle against substance abuse and mental health crises, though without lasting recovery services and further housing initiatives, there will not be remarkable change (Rothenburg, 2023). Despite substantial failings from the city and political leaders, several strides have been made through the passionate efforts of several organizations, toward the ambitious goal of helping people attain sobriety, housing, mental healthcare, and basic needs.

With 13 locations throughout Portland, Oregon, and the surrounding Metro Area, LifeWorks NW has been making widespread progress serving the community for over 60 years (LifeWorks NW, 2023). LifeWorks offers "mental health and addiction services for children and adolescents, walk-in and mobile crisis programs, family and individual community-based support programs, and peer-delivered services" (LifeWorks NW, 2023). With antiracist, equity-driven foundations, LifeWorks' mission is to "provide the highest quality, culturally responsive behavioral healthcare possible throughout the lifespan" (LifeWorks NW, 2023).

"LifeWorks NW promotes a healthy community by providing quality and culturally responsive mental health and addiction services across the lifespan throughout Washington County, Clackamas County, and Multnomah County" (LifeWorks NW, 2023).

Offering incredibly comprehensive addiction treatments and programs, LifeWorks NW plays a monumental role in encouraging and maintaining sobriety in those suffering from mental health conditions. Throughout 2022-2023, 98.7% of clients of LifeWorks NW were able to avoid the need for emergency services entirely through alternate treatment (LifeWorks NW, 2023). Serving nearly 20,000 people in 2021-2022, LifeWorks treats people from all walks of life, from every age, and from every background (LifeWorks NW, 2023).

Another organization that has served the community throughout these times of crises is Blanchet House. Mentioned in my last post, Blanchet House is a nonprofit social services organization in Old Town, Portland that offers food, clothing, and residential programs. From farm to table, Blanchet House serves the community with 3 hot meals 6 days a week for free. Clean clothing, hygiene products, and sleeping essentials are also offered during meal services. The residential program supports men struggling with addiction, unemployment, mental health, housing, or other challenges, offering renewal work programs and housing to struggling individuals (Blanchet House, 2023).

"Blanchet House's mission and core values embody our commitment to serving anyone in need with dignity and without discrimination or judgment. We recognize that our Black, Indigenous, and People of Color (BIPOC) communities are disproportionately impacted by socio-economic injustice. We recognize that this injustice can lead to housing and food insecurity, creating the need for our programs. These BHH services, then, must exemplify our commitment to equity, ensuring that those most affected by an injustice have the necessary resources to live freely and fairly. BHH's founding ideals prioritize each individual's needs in order to meet all people we serve where they are" (Blanchet House, 2023).

Active on platform X (formerly known as Twitter) and other social media sites, Blanchet House advocates for the rights of unhoused individuals and shares heartwarming stories of their community members and their services' impact on those who are struggling.

In 2020, Blanchet House helped more than 30,000 people (Blanchet House, 2023).

The lack of available treatment for unhoused individuals and those experiencing mental health crises directly impacts the prevalence of social issues such as domestic violence, child abuse, crime against people and property, unemployment, homelessness, hunger, auto crashes, and gun accidents. At a governmental level, despite small wins such as Measure 110, there have yet to be feasible options that will improve the circumstances of those who need support. With community-focused organizations such as these, there is hope for remission and recovery.

Oregon's historical pattern of neglect in addressing mental health and substance abuse issues proves a consistent failure in meeting people's needs. From early mass burials of mental health inmates (Mental Health Association of Portland (2013), to recent homeless encampment sweeps (KGW News, 2022), there's a blatant and historically surviving lack of comprehensive, compassionate solutions.

The passing of Measure 110 and the efforts of organizations like LifeWorks NW and Blanchet House are encouraging signs of progress. However, they also highlight the incessant need for lasting recovery services, long-term housing solutions, and mental healthcare as opposed to band-aid solutions. Only then will we progress as a city in meeting the basic survival needs of our citizens, and only then will the mental health and well-being of our communities begin to improve.

The Info Sheet: I Am The Apocalypse (S3, E19)

There's a gas leak at a large factory that deals with ammonia as a refrigerant. Casey and Severide are climbing the ladder to rescue two workers trapped on the roof. Boden calls them back saying that ammonia produces very little fire and to wait for Hazmat, but Severide asks for him to let them rescue just the trapped workers and he gives them 2 minutes.

Mills says some victims are in respiratory distress and with an ambulance being a few minutes out, Severide suggests loading some into squad and taking them to Med, Casey says they'll go and help offload. Boden agrees.

Besides the ammonia victims, the ER is also filled with flu victims. Kendra tells April to separate the flu and ammonia victims. As she is doing so, a man steps on a chair and proclaims 'You thought ebola was a nightmare. I am the apocalypse. Death to All Americans' as he takes out a grenade and removes the pin. Severide rushes towards the man, pushes April out of the way, and then tackles the man to the ground just as the grenade explodes.

As everyone starts to gather themselves after the blast, Otis discovers Severide injured and unconscious on the ground. Mills & Brett run over to check on him. Brett says he has a weak pulse and Mills says there's trauma to his back and chest.

Will Halstead comes and checks Kelly and tells Mills to blacktag him as he's gone. When Mills questions him, he says percentages are very low and Mills tells him he doesn't give a damn about percentages. Halstead says to grab a gurney.

Casey reports to Boden that Severide is injured badly and the doc wanted to black tag him.

Casey, Otis and Mills help lift Severide onto the gurney. Halstead orders them to move him to trauma bay 4 and to get him on oxygen and cut off his jacket but to wait to uncover the wound. He says he'll be right there.

Hannah Tramble gets Halstead to let her into the ER and he assigns her to Kelly. He tells her to do what she can.

Inside the trauma bay, Tramble cuts away Kelly's top revealing the grenade shrapnel damage. His stats start to drop and she tells Brett to bag him while she dresses the wound. Casey watches from the doorway and Kelly is dreaming of Shay. An alarm on the monitor starts beeping and Tramble tells Mills they need to intubate.

Tramble gives Kelly 20mg of Etomidate and Mills starts to intubate Kelly. He struggles to do it at first but Tramble calms him and they are successful. Kelly stabilises. Tramble tells them they need to get a chest tube in and make sure there is no more damage from the other wounds.

Tramble starts to operate on Kelly.

Boden asks for an update on Severide. Casey says he's still unconscious. He asks to be kept posted.

Dawson asks Casey if there's any news on Severide but Casey tells her no.

Tramble is still pulling shrapnel out of the wounds. She had trouble getting shrapnel between his ribs and asks Brett to get some rib spreaders.

Mills helps Tramble but using the rib spreaders for her while she goes after the shrapnel. Kelly's stats start dropping again. Tramble tells Brett to take down the balloon on the ET tube and push it into his right main-stem. Mills points out it won't ventilate his left lung and she says she is going to cut the inferior pulmonary ligament and move his lung out of the way.

She goes after the final piece as Halstead enters. Casey, Dawson, Otis, Cruz and Rice are all watching outside the door. She removes the last piece of shrapnel but then there's an arterial bleeder. She says the shrapnel hit the intercostal artery and she has to suture.

April joins those at 51 watching on.

Severide's vitals start to stabilise again, everyone is looking happy and relieved. Halstead says he loves being wrong and leaves.

Casey tells Boden Severide's stable. He looks relieved and we also see Mouch, Tony and Capp sharing that relief.

Severide wakes up and April is with him. She tells him he scared her and he says he doesn't remember any of it. She kisses him on the head and turns the lights off to let him rest.

I Am The Apocalypse

Pairings: Jay Halstead x Reader; Kelly Severide x Reader (Platonic)

Warnings: Mentions of injury, Mentions of blood

Summary: Mini Episode rewrite of Chicago Fire S03x19 where reader was in Med when the blast went off.

A/N: First Chicago/Jay fic so I hope it’s okay~ Just something that popped in my head while I was rewatching so I just penned it down. Wrote it mainly from reader’s POV so only picked off parts where I felt would fit!

---

(Y/N POV)

I sipped my coffee at the table, dressed in Jay’s hoodie, which was my personal favourite, watching him pour his coffee.

“I can feel you staring.” He chuckled, as another lady stuck her head into the kitchen.

“Hey… Hi. Morning…” Jay glanced at her awkwardly.

“Melanie.” She responded, stepping into the kitchen.

“Jay. Will’s brother.” He responded, handing her the coffee cup.

“It’s nice to meet you.” She responded with a smile, as I watched the exchange with amusement. She seemed to just realise my presence and gave a polite nod before shuffling out of the kitchen to meet Will in the living room.

I raised my eyebrows at Jay who laughed and poured another cup of coffee for himself.

“When do you have to be at work?” Jay asked his brother, a cheeky smile lingering on his face, as Will entered the kitchen.

Will looked at his watch, “About five minutes ago?”

Jay exchanged a look with me. “It’s your first day.” He commented to his brother, taking a sip of his coffee.

“Uh, first and last, as it turns out.” Will replied, not looking up from the refrigerator.

Jay froze. “You’re… joking?”

Will shook his head. “No.”

I checked my phone, vaguely registering the conversation Jay was having with his brother about him returning to New York.

“Just give it a couple of weeks.” Jay paused before adding, “At least.”

Will turned to face Jay and shrugged. “I got to go.” Will turned to leave, adding, “Bye Y/N.”

I waved, gulping down the last of my coffee as Jay turned back to me with a sigh. I smiled and he took the empty mug from my hands, running it under water in the sink.

As I made to get up, my head gave a dull throb. Again. This stupid migraine hadn’t let up for at least a week. I closed my eyes and frowned, waiting for it to pass, pausing in my movement to get up from the table.

“Y/N?” I could feel Jay hovering over me now.

I cracked my eyes open, looking up at him. “I’m fine. It’s just that stupid migraine.”

Jay’s expression softened. “Maybe you should get that looked at.” He suggested, gently stroking my hair.

I nodded, “Yeah, maybe I’ll go to Med later.”

“I gotta go. Text me, okay?” Jay said, planting a kiss on the top of my head.

I smiled. “Be safe!” I called after him as he turned to give me a wink.

---

I had decided to make Med my first stop of the day after all and I was already sitting in a chair in the waiting room after registration. I had barely been there for 5 minutes when the waiting room became crowded with familiar faces of incoming firefighters from Firehouse 51, supporting incoming patients.

I nodded greetings to those who noticed me as they helped people in. I had been at 51 with Kelly as well as Molly’s with Jay enough times to be on familiar terms with most of them. I settled in for what I was sure was going to be a long wait, only looking up when I heard Kelly’s voice calling out, “Kendra!” as he helped the man he was supporting into a wheelchair.

Kelly glanced around and spotted me. “Y/N? You okay? What are you doing here?” He took a step closer to me.

I smiled at him. “I’m fine, just a persistent migraine, thought I’d better check it out. What’s up?” I asked, motioning to the room flooding with other firefighters.

Before Kelly could respond, a nurse stepped forward. “Everyone, may I have your attention please?” Her call was in vain to the bustle of the now full waiting room. Kelly glanced at her before calling at the top of his voice. “Listen up!”

The emergency room fell to silence almost immediately. She smiled gratefully at Kelly before turning to address everyone else. “All right, we are going to have a very full day here and I understand none of you feel well. But we’re going to need help from you as well as patience. If you’re here because of the ammonia leak…”

My attention trailed off as I noticed a patient get up and make his way nearer to her. My gut gave an uneasy churn as I watched him and I glanced over at Kelly but he wasn’t paying attention to me any longer.

The man dragged a chair towards him, stepping onto it. The nurse had now noticed him. “Sir, not yet, please. I need everyone…”

He swayed a little before he looked at everyone. “If you thought Ebola was a nightmare, I am the apocalypse!”

My eyes caught the grenade in his hand. “Kelly!” I shouted, as the man pulled out the pin.

“Death to all Americans. You’re all dead in two weeks!”

Kelly spun around as I saw Casey exit the treatment room that he had been in.

“Allahu akbar!” he screamed.

I watched in horror as Kelly sprinted towards him, pushing the nurse out of the way and flinging the man onto the ground, the sounds of the explosion drowning out my voice screaming my friend’s name.

----

The aftermath of the explosion was nothing but chaos. I heard firefighters running around, trying to contain the panic, as well as the people who were trying to run out of the emergency room.

“Hey, you okay?” I looked up.

“Y/N?” Will asked again when I didn’t respond.

“Yeah, I think so.” His eyes raked over me. “Let me take a look.” I let Will do what he needed to do and answered questions that he asked me. Satisfied that I wasn’t seriously hurt, he squeezed my shoulder. “Stay here,” he instructed before heading over to another badly injured patient.

I could hear several instructions being called out but only one caught my attention.

“Hey, hey over here! It’s Severide!”

My head snapped up and I clambered to my feet. As everyone came around him, calling his name. Sylvie grabbed his wrist, “It’s a weak pulse.”

Will quickly rushed over. “Let me see.”

Feeling his pulse at his neck, Will looked up. “No. Black tag him. He’s gone.”

I felt my heart drop into my gut. Even I knew what that meant.

Peter spun around to look at Will. “What?”

Will met Peter’s gaze. “The percentages are very low that he’ll…”

A look of rage passed Peter’s face. “I don’t give a damn about percentages.”

Will faltered and I reached out to touch his shoulder, my voice shaking a little. “Will… please…”

Will glanced at me before looking back at Peter. “No problem. Grab a gurney.” I watched as they busied putting Kelly onto a gurney, my heart giving another uncomfortable squeeze as I heard Casey report back to their fire chief outside.

I wasn’t sure how long I stood there in a daze, long after they had wheeled Kelly away. “Hey,” I felt a hand on my arm. I turned to face the nurse who had been trying to control the crowd before the explosion. “Are you okay?”

I nodded, before shrugging. “You’re April, right?” I asked her, as she looked at me quizzically before smiling.

“Yeah, I’ve heard a lot about you from Kelly. I’m Y/N.” I motioned in the direction of the treatment room Kelly was now in. She smiled back but glanced at the cut on my forehead. “Let’s just take care of this, okay?”

April helped to plaster a band-aid on my forehead, commenting that it was a miracle I wasn’t that badly hurt.

----

(Jay’s POV)

I turned into the hospital, climbing out of my car before picking up my phone to dial Y/N’s number.

Pick up, come on.

As the ringing died out, I desperately tried Will’s number. “Are you in there?”

“I am. Listen, the guy who blew himself up in here said he had something worse than Ebola.”

I froze. “What, like, he’s spreading it with this?” The pit in my stomach was expanding.

Will affirmed it. “Yeah, every single one of us in here has been in contact with him.” I could almost feel the fear bubbling up inside of me.

“Who is he?” I demanded.

Will’s response didn’t help. “No idea. Do us all a favour and find out, would you?”

“Will, wait…” The line went dead before I could ask him anything else.

In desperation, I dialled her number again, hoping she would answer.

---

(Y/N POV)

Thanking April, I got up as she moved on to help Will and Gabriela with another patient.

As I stood, I felt my phone buzzing in my pocket, exhaling a breath as I stared at Jay’s name flashing back at me.

“Jay?” I answered.

“Tell me you’re not in there.” I could hear Jay’s voice laced with worry.

“Yeah, I am. Sorry.” I replied, looking around at the carnage.

“Damn it.” He cursed under his breath.

Even in this situation, I could imagine the look on his face. “Jay, I’m fine. Don’t worry about me.”

I could hear him sigh. “Look, Will is there too, so…”

I interrupted him. “Yeah, I know. He’s looked me over already, okay? Don’t worry, I’ll see you soon.”

“Y/N…” I could hear his reluctance.

“Jay… you do what you got to do to get us out of here.” I paused. “I love you.”

Jay let out another breath on his end. “Be safe. I love you.”

We hung up and I headed towards a corner of the room, squatting next to a mother and daughter when a part of the ceiling came crashing down, as the girl to scream in fright.

I turned to her. “Hey, what’s your name, sweetheart?” I eyed Otis who ran over armed with an extinguisher to fight the flames and I continued to talk to her, successfully distracting her from the fire. Her mother smiled in thanks at me and I just smiled back. “It’s going to be alright.” I reassured her, my eyes falling again on the treatment room Kelly had been wheeled into, not sure if I was reassuring her or myself.

I looked up again as some firefighters entered the emergency room with ladders and extra extinguishers, knowing this wasn’t a good sign. They clambered up the ladders, changing extinguishers the moment they emptied one. April was going around the room trying to reassure everyone and I squeezed the little girl’s hand and smiled at her.

“Fire’s out!”, “All clear!” The firefighters shouted, clambering down from the ladders.

---

(Jay’s POV)

I stood next to Adam, surveying the computer in front of us inside the makeshift tent we were stationed in.

“Detective.”

I turned to glance in the direction of the voice of Sharon Goodwin, noting the couple following behind her.

“The parents of…”

She didn’t need to say more. I motioned to a few chairs. “Hi. Please have a seat.”

“Is there anything you can tell us?”

The man looked up with pleading eyes. “He was a smart boy. Always nice, helpful. This country has given our family so much. How could this have happened?”

I looked away for a moment. “He claimed to be infected with something similar to Ebola.”

They looked up in horror, as the man closed his eyes, almost as if in defeat. “From his work.”

I frowned, “What do you mean, from his work?” Adam shifted his weight.

“He was working at BHO Labs. They study infectious diseases.”

I looked at Adam. “We got to get somebody down there right now.”

Adam nodded, “I’m on it.”

I turned back to the parents, “What else can you tell me? Anything about who he might have been involved with, planned this with?”

I needed to focus on this. I needed to get them out of there.

---

(Y/N POV)

Casey stopped in front of me. “How we doing?”

I nodded back at him. He glanced at the mother and daughter next to me. “I’m working on getting some food and water in here. Okay?” He smiled before getting up, patting my shoulder.

I watched his retreating back but was distracted by someone calling out to him. “Hey fireman!”

I watched as Casey turned towards the man, who towered over him. “What’s the latest?” he demanded.

Casey frowned. “Everyone’s doing all they can.”

The man’s voice rose again. “What the hell does that mean? No one is telling us anything!”

I flinched; shouting wasn’t something I handled very well.

Casey moved towards him, trying to ask him to calm down. He seemed to give up the fight against Casey, squatting down next to the counter but the next minute, I heard Gabby’s voice, “Matt!” as the big guy swung a pipe towards Casey.

I pushed myself further back into the wall, shutting my eyes, hearing the scuffling sounds. If everyone would just calm the hell down and focus on what mattered, the faster we could probably get out of here. I focused my thoughts on Jay, trying to even out my breathing so that I could prevent a panic attack.

“You doing okay?” Will asked, grabbing my elbow.

My eyes snapped open, darting towards the other side of the room where Casey and April seemed to have handled the situation pretty well.

“Come on, why don’t you come with me.” Will muttered, pulling me up and leading me into a room. Herrmann was inside talking to a doctor, who Will introduced as Diane Claman.

I stood in the corner of the room as Will’s phone rang, and I heard Jay’s voice on the other end of the line. Even at this distance, it felt reassuring.

“He was working with Marburg, he injected himself with it.” Will repeated to Diane.

“What’s Marburg?” Herrmann asked, frowning a little.

Diane looked at us. “It’s a viral haemorrhagic fever. The Soviets developed it as a biological weapon.” Herrmann and I exchanged a look as she turned back to Will. “Ask them which strain of the Marburg virus.”

“Which strain?” Will’s voice broke the silence again.

“Ravn.” He repeated.

Jay must have said something and Will hung up with an “All right.”

Diane looked up again. “Okay, so now I just have to see if he was past the incubation period and actually infectious.”

For the first time, I spoke up. “And if he was past the incubation period?”

Will looked at me and shook his head slightly.

“It means Aleem was a walking biological weapon.” A grim silence fell across the room.

----

I had wandered to where the rest of the firefighters had gathered, outside the treatment room where Kelly was in.

I could see the doctor extract a piece of shrapnel from Kelly and just as I was about to breathe a sigh of relief, a spurt of blood shot out from Kelly’s open wound. I heard Sylvie’s voice, “Arterial bleeder!”

I bit my lip as I felt someone take my hand. Gabby gave me a small smile, squeezing my hand. We turned back to the room, as the machine slowly showed Kelly’s vitals stabilising and I let out a breath I didn’t know I was holding.

A few minutes later, Herrmann emerged from another treatment room, looking dazed. Everyone looked up at him. “What is it?”

Herrmann let a small smile grace his lips. “Not contagious.” The sense of relief flooded the room as Diane stepped out. “Influenza A tested positive, but the Marburg virus didn’t have time to incubate. Whatever he had in his body died with him.”

The sigh of relief was audible as everyone hugged each other.

Will looked at me and smiled, nodding. “Open up the ER!” he announced, looking around.

---

(Jay’s POV)

I heard the vague sounds of the firefighters cheering outside and looked at Adam.

He nodded, motioning for me to head outside. I patted him on the back, jogging towards the ER, looking above all the heads to see if I could spot her.

(Y/N’s POV)

The only thing I wanted to do was to get out of here.

I looked towards Casey.

“Severide’s fine. We won’t be able to see him until tomorrow, anyway. Go.” He reassured me, guiding me towards the exit.

I stumbled out, wincing slightly at the bruises all over my body but peered.

I spotted him almost instantly, the worried lines across his face, scanning the crowd.

“Jay.” I breathed, heading straight for him. I crashed into his arms as I heard Jay’s sigh of relief in my ear. “Oh my god.” He muttered, pulling me into him, wrapping his arms around my body and cradling my head. I could feel how relieved he was as he sank his body into mine.

Quickly, he pulled away, surveying me at arm’s length. “Are you hurt?” he demanded.

I smiled, putting my hand against his cheek. “Bruised, but nothing serious.” I smiled.

“Thank God.” He pulled me back into his arms, holding me tightly as if he was never going to let me go.

Gently he broke away again, kissing me on the forehead. “Come on.” He muttered, gently leading me towards the white tents that I could now see.

“Halstead, get out of here.” Antonio appeared in front of us.

Jay paused, studying Antonio.

“I got you. Go on, get out of here.” Antonio winked at me and I nodded back at him gratefully.

“Thanks.” Halstead and Antonio fist bumped each other and Jay helped me into his car.

We didn’t say much on the ride back but Jay never let go of my hand.

We drove straight to his apartment and I headed straight for the shower, my bruised body welcoming the relief of warm water. Once we were cleaned up, Jay crawled into bed with me and I welcomed it, glad the day was over.

Jay put his chin on the top of my head. “You really scared me today.” He whispered.

My arms wrapped around his torso, I looked up at him.

“If I lost you…” his voice trailed off.

I leaned further into his embrace. “Honestly? I was scared too. Kelly got hurt… I was afraid I was going to lose him… afraid I wasn’t going to be able to see you again… I…” I paused before continuing, “Thanks for being here, Jay.”

Jay tilted my chin gently up so that I was looking at him and smiled. “Always.” Leaning forward, Jay pulled me into a deep kiss, which I leaned into, grateful that this day had ended as well as it could have.

Andy’s Sister ; Kelly Severide x Reader

.Chapter 10.

As Matt is locking his locker, Gabby walks in. “My brother called, asked if you guys were sure about what you’re doing. I told him, ‘You don’t know Darden and Casey very well.’” Matt chuckles as he zips his bag.

“You holding up alright?” She asks. “Yeah. Yeah. I’m good.” He says followed by a moment of silence.

“What would you have done?” He asks her. “Psssh..I-You know I went back and forth on this. Especially with Antonio in my ear, but…” she sighs, “You want to know the honest answer?” Matt nods, “Yeah.”

“If I held that information out of the report, I thought about how I’d feel looking people I respect in the eye. You know, and I-I guess specifically, I thought about how I’d feel looking you in the eye.” Matt looks at her in slight shock not knowing she held so much respect for him.

“And that’s when I knew I would’ve done the right thing.” She finishes. “I’m worried about Luci.” He says. “Luci’s probably thinking about the way she’d feel looking her brother in the eye. He’d be proud of her.” “Or pissed at me for putting her in this situation.” Matt says, huffing.

“You didn’t put her in this situation. You didn’t cause the accident.” Gabby says.

The car ride home from the doctor’s is pretty much silent other than some little chitter chat. They go up to his apartment where Kelly starts making them some lunch and Luci sits herself on a bar stool.

“Hey, guys.” Leslie says walking into the kitchen. “So, how’d it go?” She asks Kelly while sitting down on a bar stool next to Luci. “Good,” He says, simply not wanting to get into it, but he can tell that’s not gonna work for her, “Nice lady. I’ve just gotta find a way to manage the pain.”

“Wait, Kelly? Are you serious?” Luci asks. “Yeah, Kendra said you basically have a broken neck.” Leslie says. “Well, if the two of you already talked, then why are you asking me?” He says with a nasty attitude. “Kelly.” Luci says harshly.

“Listen, I get that surgery, there’s follow-up exams. There’s paperwork involved. The department doesn’t like how it looks, I go on long-term disability.” He says. “That’s 75% pay.” Lelsie says. “And then do what, Shay? I fish off Navy Pier for the next 20 years?” both the women sigh, understanding where he’s coming from.

“Working Squad is all I want. It’s all I have. If I have to eat the pain then I will.” “Actually, Kelly, it’s not all you have. So, I’m gonna go throw up since I’m carrying your child, but you,” Luci points to Leslie, “please talk some sense into him. My baby’s dad will not be a drug addict.” Luci gets up and leaves to go upstairs and throw up. Kelly sighs.

“She’s right, there’s more on the line now.” Leslie says.

Darden and Shay get out of the rig after coming back from an errand.

“Hey, why didn’t you call Alexa back? I liked her.” Luci says, walking to the back of the ambo. “You know the joke. What does a lesbian bring on a second date?” Darden looks at her not knowing the answer.

“A moving van.” Shay says, opening the back doors. “You have major commitment issues.” “Yeah, yeah.” Darden reaches for the pumpkin and hands it to Shay. “Can you put this out in the front? I’m gonna put this stuff in the kitchen.” Darden hands her the pumpkin as she grabs the bags of candy.

“Great. I’m not carving this thing.”

Darden walks into the kitchen with Dawson and the bags of candy.

“Yo, do we have any spices around here besides salt and pepper?” Mills asks. “What else do you need besides salt and pepper?” Otis asks dramatically. They set the candy down on the counter and hoist themselves up. “Wow.” Mills says, observing the 4 value size bags of candy.

“This is for the trick-or-treaters.” Darden says, getting on the counter. “And heads up-Halloween is Chief Boden’s favorite holiday.” Dawson says, climbing further onto the counter. Mills laughs. “Oh, I’m dead serious.” She says. The two climb up the rest of the way and put the candy on top of the cabinets in hopes no one will eat it.

“I can see where you’re putting that.” Otis says. “Hey, nobody touches the candy!” Darden says. “We ran out last year.” Dawson says. “I graciously donate my in-laws television, and I can’t get a piece of candy.” Hermann says, walking to the sofa. The women climb down from the counter.

“Hey,” Dawson says grabbing Mills’ attention, “I keep coriander, cumin, and bay leaves in the back cupboard. Um, I used up all the saffron last time I cooked.” She pats his shoulder and they walk off.

“Why have you never told me about your spices?” Darden asks. “You never asked.” Dawson says, shrugging her shoulders when they hear the alarm go off.

“Engine 51, truck 81, Squad 3, Ambulance 61. Warehouse fire, 6620 Oak Park.”

Arriving on the scene, the fire was bad. Darden and Shay get their gurney out along with their jump bag and get ready for victims.

“That smoke’s turning ugly.” Luci overhears Boden. Worry rushes through her body knowing Kelly’s inside. She trust her boyfriend’s capabilities, but God forbid something goes wrong and she’s alone with their baby.

She’s broken out of her thoughts as they bring the first victim out. “We got him.” She says and takes the victim from Casey. The smoke is turning black and time's running out. All but Mills and Hermann are out of the building.

While treating the victims, Shay and Darden overhear Boden and Mills arguing about another victim inside. In no time, the building flashes and the fire explodes.

Darden walks over to Severide’s quarters and knocks on the door before entering. He’s laying down on his bed rubbing his shoulder. “Hey.” She says, sitting down next to him. “Hurting?” She asks. “I’m fine.” He says, but she’s not stupid. She knows he’s lying.

“So, I was thinking about telling Chief today.” “Telling him what?” He asks. “That you knocked me up.” She says and he laughs.

“I just wanna tell him you know, in case something happens. I think it’s important to tell him given our line of work.” Severide nods. “You wanna tell him now?” She shakes her head,

“We will before end of shift. You rest up.” She makes sure no one’s around before she kisses his cheek and leaves for the common room.

Darden, Dawson, and Mills make some lunch together and sit down to eat it. “I’m starving.” Darden says before digging in.

“Just take the damn piece of candy already!” Cruz says, making Dawson and Darden turn around. “Hey! No one takes that candy!” Darden says with her mouth full. “I’m not climbing onto the counter.” Mouch says.

Casey walks into the kitchen and Cruz leans over to Otis at their table.

“Hey, did you guys hear Darden and Casey are gonna testify against Detective Voight’s son?” “Apparently Dawson’s brother says it’s a risky move and Voight’s a dangerous son of a bitch. “ Otis says. “I wouldn’t put my ass on the line like that.” Mouch pitches in.

“Hey,” Darden says walking past them, little did they know she could hear everything, “Didn’t ask for the opinions.” She walks away with her empty bowl.

“Does she have hawk ears or something?” Otis whispers.

“Uh. Darden, Lieutenant,” Mouch calls out, grabbing their attention, “you guys need any help with the Detective Voight situation, you let me know. When I became a Union Rep, they sent me a bunch of brochures…” Darden leans up against the counter with her lips pursed and eyebrows raised trying to hold in a laugh. “We’re good, thanks.” Matt says. “We just have to testify at the arraignment, one it’s set.” Darden says, washing her bowl.

“You see this crap?” Hermann asks, walking in holding a newspaper with the headline “HOMELESS MAN DIES IN WAREHOUSE FIRE”. “Why is it crap?” Mills asks and all the guys look at him. “I just mean that that’s what happened, isn’t it? So....?” He says.

“Where is the headline about how we busted our humps and saved three guys, huh?” Hermann asks. “Good news doesn’t sell newspapers, Hermann.” Darden says.

“Okay, everybody, listen up.” Chief Boden says, walking into the common room with the Squad guys behind him. “Today, our very own Jose Vargas transfers from Truck to Squad. As of now, he’s officially a member of Rescue Squad 3.” Boden announces earning an applause from everyone and a proud smile from Vargas.

“Make sure to bow next time you walk by.” Otis says joking referring to how the Squad crew has big egos. “Best of luck.” Casey says with a smile, shaking Vargas’ hand.

Severide walks toward Luci as Nikki walks inside. “Hey Lieutenant Casey and Severide, I just saw your cars out front. Something happened to them.” Everyone rushes out to the front to see the cars.

Both drivers' side windows are smashed in and the tires are slashed.

“This is why I can’t stand Halloween, man.” Cruz says, looking at the damage. “Baby, I’m sorry.” Darden says quietly to Severide. “What? It’s not your fault.” He says. She puts her hand on his arm causing him to look at her. “I think it is.” She says.

“My gym bag got lifted.” Casey says shaking his head. Darden looks in Severide’s car. “Matt,” Luci calls out and Matt looks at her, “Mine did, too.”

“Right in front of the station.” Hermann says, shaking his head, “Call the cops. File a report.” “Yeah, we should.” Casey says as the alarm goes off.

“Truck 81, Squad 3. House fire, 220 South Kilbourn.”

Kelly, Casey, Hermann, and Cruz run back into the house. “Why is Darden’s gym bag in your car?” Cruz asks Severide. “Her car is in the shop. I gave her a ride.” Severide says, using the quickest excuse he could think of.

Darden goes back into the common room where Shay is. “So, the guys just got called out. Therefore, we’re alone and it’s a Wednesday. Do you see what I’m saying?” Darden asks.

“Real Housewives?” Shay asks. “Yes!” Darden says jumping on the sofa and Shay sits next to her. “How do you feel today?” Shay asks. “Not too bad. I’ve only thrown up once. Kelly and I are gonna tell Chief today.”

Shay nods, “Have you guys talked more about the surgery?” Luci sighs, “No. I just-I’m trying to go about this the best way possible, but you know how stubborn he is.”

“So, how are you guys gonna tell the whole house that you’re dating and you’re pregnant at the same time?” Darden purses her lips and Shay laughs. “We haven’t figured that out yet.”

Not even five minutes into the show and the TV goes out. “What the hell?!” Darden yells dramatically as Boden walks in. “All I wanted to do was watch some Real housewives and the stupid TV goes out!” She says, tearing up.

“Hey, hey. It’s okay. We’ll fix it.” Shay says. Boden gives her a weird look wondering why she’s crying about the TV, but Shay knows it’s just the pregnancy hormones. Darden nods and wipes her tears away.

Truck walks back in seeing Darden, Shay, and Boden messing with the TV. “What the hell happened?” Hermann asks. “It went out.” Shay says, moving a wire. “What?” Mouch asks, disappointed.

“It just needed a new cord. Nobody panic.” Boden says, worried Darden would start crying again. “Go ahead. Try it.” Shay says. Boden clicks the remote and the TV turns back on. “Ew, turn that off.” Otis says as the Real Housewives comes back on. “Halloween Horror Marathon, Channel 11.”

“No!” Darden says, “We are watching the Real Housewives, I don’t care!” Tears brim her eyes again. Scared, the guys back off. Shay just laughs and Dawson sits next to her. Boden accidentally clicks the channel up button when he sets the remote down and the news comes on.

“My brother died because he was homeless and poor. If he had been a firefighter or a banker in a fancy apartment, they would’ve found a way to save him. It was recorded on a cell phone.” The man on the news pulls out his cell phone and holds it up to the camera playing a video of Mills and Boden arguing at the last scene about Mills wanting to go back in. “Even his own men wanted to go back in and save my brother’s life. But the Chief on the scene, Wallace Boden, said no.” The Chief turns the channel back to Real Housewives.

“And what the video doesn't show is the fire flashing 20 seconds later.” Darden says and she lays her head on Dawson’s shoulder.

The real housewives episode ends and the guys steal the remote so Dawson, Darden, and Shay get the bags of candy and set up the table outside. Dawson is putting a Halloween sign up, Darden pouring the candy in a bowl, and Shay “supervising” when Hallie runs up to them.

“Hey, we got our first trick-or-treater.” shay says. “Hey, you guys. Happy Halloween.” Hallie says. “Happy Halloween, lady.” Darden says. “Sweet shoes.” Dawson says. “Thanks! Uh, are you a runner, too?” Hallie asks Dawson. “Uh, I just did my first 10k a couple months ago.” “Oh, wow, that’s-that’s my race, too. I’ve been training for the next one. I’m trying to get in under 48 minutes.” Hallie says, crossing her arms.

“That sounds like a good goal.” Darden says. “How’d you do?” Hallie asks Dawson. “45:20.” Dawson says, harshly. “Wow, that’s great.” Hallie says. They both awkwardly laugh.

“Casey’s in his quarters, I think.” Shay says, trying to break the awkward situation. “Awesome. Thank you. I’ll see you guys.” Hallie says, jogging toward the garage. “45:20?” Darden asks with her eyebrows raised.

“You know, it was somewhere around there.” Dawson says shrugging her shoulders and the girls laugh.

Darden is sitting on the washer while Shay is folding her dried laundry when Nikki walks in.

“I have a favor to ask you.” Nikki says to Shay. Shay nods. “Can I borrow your house key?” Nikki asks her. “I just wanna set a little something up for Kelly in his room. Champagne, candles. I-I was close to getting him and he said it’s not a good time and I think it’s just ‘cause my dad and Chief Boden.”

Shay looks at Darden who is silently laughing behind Nikki. “Yeah, I don’t think it’s your dad or Chief Boden that’s the problem so much as the fact that Kelly's already seeing someone.” Shay says. “And I'm engaged. So what?” Shay shakes her head and laughs to herself.

“So, can I have the key or not?” Nikki asks. “Not at all.” Shay says and Nikki storms away. By the time Nikki is out of the room Darden is on the literal floor laughing. But the silent laugh that you do when you’re laughing so hard you don’t even make noise. “She’s a piece of work.” Shay says as the alarm goes off.

“Ambulance 61. Hand laceration. 310 East Pearson.” Shay helps Darden up and they run to the ambo.

They pull up to a gorgeous house and walk two flights of stairs just to get to the living room where they see a small baby shower happening.

They walk into the kitchen where the actual accident is, a chef who has a cut on his hand. “Oof! You got a nice bleed going there!” Shay says. Darden opens the jump bag as Shay examines the cut. “Yikes, what happened?” Shay asks.

“I was chopping and suddenly there were screams, so I took my eyes off the onion. Next thing you know, my hand’s gushing blood.” He explains. “Screams?” Darden asks.

“A reaction to a two-tier baby carriage and matching car seat.” He says sarcastically. “Shay, I want one of those at my baby shower.” Darden jokes and Shay laughs. “Wiggle your finger for me.” Shays says and he’s able to do it. “Ah, it’s not bad but, yeah, you’re gonna need stitches.”

One of the party goers walks in the kitchen. “The mom-to-be had a dizzy spell when she saw the blood. Can one of you guys take a look at her?” The lady asks. “Yeah, sure.” Darden says since Shay is cleaning the chef’s hand. She grabs the jump bag and follows the lady into the other room.

As soon as she sees who the mom-to-be is, she turns around and goes back into the kitchen. She clasps her hands together, “You’re not gonna believe this.”

“What?”

shame in reaching out to talk to somebody.

Matt Casey: Hey, take a seat guys. Make yourselves at home.

Gavin & Presley: Okay.

Chief Boden: Hey.

Act right.

Mouch: Copy that, Chief.

So how’s that socialised medicine working out for you

guys?

Joe Cruz: Mouch.

Mouch: To get your tonsils out, I heard you got to wait in a line

around the block for the same doctor who just finished

a colonoscopy.

Otis Zvonecek: You’re the only guy I know that could have a beef

with Canada.

Mouch: Let’s just say I got a snoot full of how things really work up

there.

Nothing against these two but pull that curtain back a little

bit. You might be surprised at what you find.

Matt Casey: Yeah, uh, again, you can ignore him.

Joe Cruz: [laughs] Mouch, you are out of your damn mind [laughs]

[shower water running]

[buzzer sounds]

Joe Cruz: (over PA) Shay, you got a guest on the apparatus floor.

Leslie Shay: I thought you were going home.

Clarice: Well, Daniel’s not back from Phoenix until later today, so…

you want to have some lunch?

Leslie Shay: It’s not a good time, Clarice. I got to get back to…

Clarice: Look, it’s turkey and brie with cranberry, from Martinelli’s.

Leslie Shay: I thought they closed.

Clarice: They opened up again over in Forest Glen.

Leslie Shay: [chuckles]

Clarice: Mmm.

Here, here, here, feel this.

Leslie Shay: Whoa. What is that?

Clarice: It’s his elbow. Wait… or no, maybe it’s his foot. That is

crazy, right?

Leslie Shay: Yeah.

Did you guys pick out names yet?

Clarice: (sighs) No, we are still in the middle of negotiations. Daniel

really wants to name him after his father.

Leslie Shay: Oh.

Clarice: Gilbert.

Leslie Shay: Oh.

Clarice: Yeah, I know.

I remember when we used to pick out baby names.

Leslie Shay: Yeah.

Yeah.

Clarice: Look, maybe I shouldn’t have said that.

[alarm sounds & buzzes]

(Over PA): Ambulance 61, difficulty breathing.

Leslie Shay: I got to go.

Uh… thanks… thanks for lunch. I…

[clears throat]

What? I can’t eat a sandwich?

Clarice: Hi, Gabby.

Gabby Dawson: Hi, Clarice.

[siren wailing]

Lady 1: [tearfully] She had a seizure, then couldn’t breathe.

Leslie Shay: Grace, can you hear me?

She’s responsive.

Gabby Dawson: Has this ever happened before?

Lady 1: No. I mean, yes. Sh-She’s had a seizure before.

Gabby Dawson: Is she taking any anti-seizure medication?

Lady 1: No, the doctors never found anything.

But she has Celiac disease. She’s… she’s been on a gluten

free diet for the last two months.

Leslie Shay: Diminished lungs.

Gabby Dawson: Okay, let’s get her to Chicago U.

Lady 1: No.

Gabby Dawson: Ma’am, we got to get Grace to the hospital.

Lady 1: Not Chicago U. My father died at that hospital. Please don’t

take her there.

Gabby Dawson: Okay, fine. Lakeshore. But we got to go now.

Hey. Easy, Grace. Easy.

Victim 2 (Grace): I don’t like the way it smells.

Gabby Dawson: You don’t like the way what smells, sweetheart?

Leslie Shay: Six year-old girl, respiratory distress, history of

undiagnosed seizures.

ER Doctor: Exam room two. We’ll take her from here.

Lady 1: I’m right here but we… [continues indistinctly]

Oh my God. Please don’t… please don’t hurt her.

Gabby Dawson: Something’s up with that chick.

Kelly Severide: Works better if you turn on the heat.

Peter Mills: [sighs] [breathing shakily]

cutscene

Matt Casey: Hour, hour and a half, tops.

Chief Boden: Okay, I’ll have Cruz cover truck until you’re back.

Matt Casey: Got it. And I’m sorry about this. You know this isn’t my

style, but…

Chief Boden: Handle your business.

Matt Casey: Oh, uh… keep an eye on Mills for me.

Chief Boden: Yeah, sure.

Gabby Dawson: Hey, quick favour?

Matt Casey: Sure.

Gabby Dawson: Shay and I feel a little weird about this call we just

went on.

We need someone to pull some medical records

for us. So I was wondering if maybe Hallie could

do us a solid.

Matt Casey: Yeah, uh, the only thing is me and Hallie are taking a

break, so…

Gabby Dawson: Right. Got it.

Say no more.

And I’m sorry to hear that.

You’re calling Kendra.

Leslie Shay: Ugh.

This is gonna cost me a dinner or two. I mean,

guaranteed she asks me to dinner, and I really

don’t want to hear about her drama…

[clears throat] Hey Kendra.

Yep. Yeah.

Uh, huh. Okay.

Alright, thank you so much. And hey, this conversation

never took place.

Yeah.

Friday? [clears throat] Um, can I get back to you?

Thanks.

Uh, so Grace was taken to the ER twice in the last six

weeks for seizures… no mention anywhere in her

record of Celiac disease.

[alarm sounding & buzzing]

(Over PA): Truck 81, Squad 3, Ambulance 61. Heart attack victim,

Dearborn and Elm.

[sirens wailing]

Man 1: Frank’s dead!

He must’ve had a heart attack or something. One minute,

he was fine.

He was dropping branches to me. And the next thing I

know, he’s just hanging there.

[branch creaks and starts to break]

Chief Boden: Cruz! You get that aerial up in that tree now.

Joe Cruz: I can get close but there’s a lot of branches. I don’t see a

clean path.

Kelly Severide: Well, then we make one.

Vargas!

Jose Vargas: On it.

Presley: Won’t you need a Stokes basket?

Chief Boden: That limb’s not gonna give us enough time. We rig a

two-to-one pulley system. We bring him down the

fast way.

Vargas: Got it.

[chainsaw buzzing]

[siren wailing]

Vargas: Path is clear.

Firefighter: Here we go.

Chief Boden: When Severide drops his line, you take up the slack.

When he cuts the old line, it’s on you.

Victim 3 (Frank): [groans softly]

Kelly Severide: Hey! He’s alive!

[branch continues to break]

Gabby Dawson: Get him down here fast.

Kelly Severide: Agh! [groans]

Chief Boden: Hadley, move. Get his back.

Kelly Severide: [grunts]

Grab it! Grab that rope!

Otis Zvonecek: Got it, Kelly.

Chief Boden: Tie it off.

Kelly Severide: [grunts]

Mouch: Set.

Victim 3 (Frank): [whimpers]

Chief Boden: Load is yours.

Steady.

Hadley: You okay?

Kelly Severide: Yeah, fine. Just… Let’s get on the ground.

Leslie Shay: Easy, easy.

Gabby Dawson: Watch his head.

Leslie Shay: There we go.

Alright, he’s breathing… shallow respirations.

Gabby Dawson: Hey, he’s carrying candy. He could be a diabetic.

Leslie Shay: Yep.

Gabby Dawson: Let’s check his blood sugar.

[machine beeping]

Leslie Shay: Okay, it’s low… below 20.

Gabby Dawson: I’ll give him an amp of D50.

[indistinct radio chatter]

Victim 3 (Frank): What happened?

Leslie Shay: Okay, sir, you’re gonna be okay. Your blood sugar

dropped. Are you diabetic?

Victim 3 (Frank): Mmhmm.

Leslie Shay: Okay.

cutscene

Lady 2: Hey Matt.

Matt Casey: Christie.

Jim.

Man 2 (Jim): Matt.

Lady 2 (Christie): Sweetheart, do you remember your Uncle Matt

from Thanksgiving a couple years ago?

Matt Casey: Hey Violet.

You’re so grown up [chuckles lightly]

15 years… that’s crazy.

Lady 2 (Christie): I still miss him

Matt Casey: [exhales deeply]

Lady 2 (Christie): Well, we’ll, uh, let you have some alone time.

Matt Casey: You don’t have to go.

Lady 2 (Christie): No, it’s okay. We were just leaving. We’ve been

here awhile.

I guess I’ll see you in a couple weeks.

Matt Casey: Yeah, I’ll see you there.

cutscene

Chief Boden: We’ve all been there. It usually happens first few

months after being on the job. Right now, you

have nothing to compare it to.

But you will.

The longer you work, the more good you do… you’ll

be able to take days like this, put them into context,

and then move forward.

Peter Mills: It’s just that afterwards, I’m… I’m looking at Mouch

telling stories and Cruz playing video games. I don’t

know how they do it.

Chief Boden: Everybody has their own way in how they deal with

things. You will get on the other side of this, Peter.

You know what? Take the rest of the shift off.

Go easy.

I’m serious, though. Talk to someone. Counsellor’s

available.

So am I. So is your Lieutenant. Okay?

Peter Mills: Okay.

cutscene

Otis Zvonecek: [chuckling] Oh yeah, it stays with me. For sure.

Thank you, dude.

My buddy, Eddie, over at 61, ‘sworn to secrecy.’

Uh the Canadians? Guess where they’re from?

Mouch: Canada.

Otis Zvonecek: Cleveland.

Mouch: What?

Otis Zvonecek: Herrmann put ‘em up to it.

Mouch: Oh that sneaky son of a bitch. He’s the only one I confided

to about me and Canada and this is what he does to me?

Otis Zvonecek: I don’t know what Herrmann’s end game is in this

prank but if you’re asking me, I say we beat him

to it.

Mouch: Yeah.

Otis Zvonecek: Yeah?

Mouch: Yeah.

Otis Zvonecek: Yes. All right.

Joe Cruz: Hey Shay, you got a visitor again.

Gabby Dawson: Ugh, Clarice again?

Daniel Schwartz: Her husband [clears throat]

Leslie Shay: Nice to see you.

Daniel Schwartz: I’m looking for my wife and my unborn son.

Would you be kind enough to point me in the

right direction?

Leslie Shay: Yeah. She’s been staying with me a couple days.

Daniel Schwartz: So, in the light of the fact that you have zero

boundaries, I will tell you now very directly

that if you think I’m gonna stand…

Leslie Shay: Daniel, you might want to bring it down a peg, because

this is your problem.

Daniel Schwartz: Right, you… you have nothing to do with it.

Leslie Shay: She came to me as a friend needing a place to stay.

So I, as a friend, took her in. I sympathise with what

you’re going through and I wish I hadn’t been brought

into this, but if you keep coming at me like you’re

coming at me, I’m gonna tell you to kiss my ass in

two seconds.

Daniel Schwartz: [sighs] What can I do? This is my family we’re

talking about.

cutscene

Peter Mills: I can’t get it out of my head. Just… I can’t get it out of

my head.

Ingrid Mills: There was a time when your father couldn’t either.

And his way of fixing it was to just shove it down.

And then that turned into shutting off a part of

himself. It’s the part that makes us human.

Peter Mills: Then what do I do?

Ingrid Mills: Walk away. You come back to the restaurant. I don’t

want you to become a block of ice. And having seen

that in your father, believe me, you don’t want that for

yourself.

It’s not who you are. Hmm? Just… come home.

Peter Mills: [sighs]

cutscene

Kelly Severide: Anna. Hey, it’s me. Look um, I need a refill…

uh somewhat urgently.

I know, I know, I know (stammering) I-I just… I…

can you please just help me out?

I can’t. I… I don’t have the time.

I could… I could pay you for them, if that’s easier.

Anna? Hello?

[sighs]

cutscene

Leslie Shay: Oh, she’s pissed.

Hey, Kendra. Thanks for doing this.

Dr. Kendra: I thought I was done.

Leslie Shay: Ah, well, you know…

Gabby Dawson: Anything on Grace Wilkinson?

[keys clacking]

Dr. Kendra: Yeah, she accidentally swallowed some turpentine.

Leslie Shay: Her mom told us she had Celiac disease.

Dr. Kendra: Uh, mom told us she was doing some painting and left

the turpentine out by mistake. We pumped the girl’s

stomach, then moved her upstairs for observation.

Leslie Shay: She didn’t want to take her to Chicago U, remember?

Could be hospital jumping to hide abuse.

Gabby Dawson: Abuse that she’s causing for attention.

It fits. That would explain the mom’s behaviour,

the inconsistent symptoms that Grace is having,

that smell that she was talking about…

Dr. Kendra: Munchausen by proxy? It’s quite rare.

Gabby Dawson: I don’t really care what you call it. That woman is

poisoning her own kid. I want this reported to

DCFS. Right now. Will you back us up?

Leslie Shay: Dinner, Friday… on me.

Dr. Kendra: I’ll get the number.

Gabby Dawson: Four years ago [exhales], my old partner and I

reported this girl with cigarette burns all over

her arms and legs to DCFS, and the investigation

was a mess of red tape from beginning to end.

They eventually sent the girl back to her father

and that same week, she died of a brain bleed

from a beating he gave her. That ain’t happening

again.

cutscene

Kelly Severide: Hey, Mrs Mills.

Ingrid Mills: Hello Kelly. Chief Boden’s office is this way?

Kelly Severide: Yeah.

How’s Peter doing?

Ingrid Mills: He saw a girl cut to pieces today. I believe you all did.

How are you doing?

[door opens]

Chief Boden: Ingrid, uh… it’s been a long time.

Ingrid Mills: Yes it has.

Chief Boden: Uh, please, have a seat.

Ingrid Mills: No, I won’t be long.

Peter’s not like Henry.

Chief Boden: No one expects him to be.

Ingrid Mills: He does. And Peter’s got this whole idea of living up to

his father’s memory.

But that is not the life I want for him.

Peter’s not coming back to 51.

Chief Boden: If that’s what he decides… I’ll abide by it. You have

my word.

Ingrid Mills: You’re not hearing me. Peter’s time as a candidate…

is done. I’m asking you to respect my wishes. Now,

you owe me that at least.

cutscene

Joe Cruz: I can tell you this soup already smells like socks, Otis.

Otis Zvonecek: Oh, just wait till it hits your taste buds, man.

Gavin: Listen, if we’ve done anything to offend you…

Mouch: Oh, no, no, no. Eat up. Enjoy your free American meal.

Presley: Is Peter coming back?

Matt Casey: Of course. He’s just clearing his head. Today was a

tough one.

Otis Zvonecek: Here we go. Dinner’s served.

Matt Casey: What the hell is this?

Otis Zvonecek: Borscht, baby.

Mouch: [sniffs]

[grimaces]

Otis Zvonecek: Mama’s Sunday night go-to.

Matt Casey: [slurps]

Otis Zvonecek: Huh?

Matt Casey: [grimaces]

Otis Zvonecek: Eh? It’s good right?

Matt Casey: We’re ordering in.

cutscene

Kelly Severide: [groans]

[footsteps approaching]

Chief Boden: Hey. Nice job up there in that tree.

Kelly Severide: Thanks, Chief.

Chief Boden: What up with your arm?

Kelly Severide: What’s that?

Chief Boden: I said, “what up with your arm?”

Kelly Severide: Tweaked it a couple days ago lifting weights.

Chief Boden: Looked like more than a tweak.

Kelly Severide: Really, I’m fine.

Chief Boden: Okay. I see it again, you’re going in for an x-ray,

for your own safety.

Kelly Severide: No. Yeah, absolutely.

cutscene

[door opens to bunk room]

Gabby Dawson: DCFS looked into the Wilkinson girl’s case…

not gonna pursue.

Let’s take a ride.

[ambo door opens]

[door alarm beeps]

[ambo door shuts]

Leslie Shay: Listen, all I’m saying is, I told you after your suspension

hearing that I’d pull up on the reins if you started to go

sideways. This is me pulling.

Gabby Dawson: We’re just having a friendly conversation.

Uh, Mrs Wilkinson, sorry to bother you like this.

Uh…

Lady 1 (Mrs Wilkinson): You’ve got some nerve… fabricating lies

against me?

Gabby Dawson: Lies? You want to talk about lies? What was that

today… a seizure related to Celiac disease or

accidental ingestion of turpentine?

Lady 1 (Mrs Wilkinson): This is harassment, and I’m calling my

lawyer.

Gabby Dawson: You should call your doctor, because you need

help. You are poisoning your own daughter.

We’re not gonna stand by…

Lady 1 (Mrs Wilkinson): You have no idea how miserable your life is

about to get.

[door shuts and locks]

cutscene

Chief Boden: I’ve been on the phone for the last hour, getting my

ass handed to me, and there wasn’t a damn thing I

could say in your defence, because what you did

was dead wrong.

Gabby Dawson: Chief, she’s poisoning her daughter.

Chief Boden: Did you talk to the DCFS?

Gabby Dawson: Yeah, but…

Chief Boden: But nothing!

You let them handle it. What you don’t do is go

knocking on doors, start throwing out accusations.

Do you not get it, Gabriela?

Leslie Shay: It’s not just her, Chief.

Chief Boden: I will get to you in a second.

Answer my question.

Gabby Dawson: Yeah, Chief, I get it.

Chief Boden: Do you not like your partner?

Leslie Shay: I like her very much indeed, Sir.

Chief Boden: Well, she’s a hothead. What you do when you have a

hothead for a partner is you talk them out of doing

stupid-ass things that can get them into serious

trouble.

Gabriela, this, um… crusade that you are on, it ends

now. You take one step further, there will not be a

suspension hearing. There will be a good-bye party.

You two, my office. We need to talk about Mills

cutscene

[bells chiming]

Kelly Severide: [exhales]

Elise Mills: Hey Kelly.

Kelly Severide: Hey.

Is your brother here?

Elise Mills: Last we talked to him, he said he was gonna go for a

drive but I haven’t heard from him for a while.

Kelly Severide: Yeah, he hasn’t been picking up his phone.

Elise Mills: I’ve never seen him like this.

Kelly Severide: Okay, well, if you talk to him, could you tell him that

I stopped by? I just wanted to check on him.

Elise Mills: I will. Thank you.

cutscene

Leslie Shay: You have to go home.

Clarice: To what?

Leslie Shay: To a husband who’s at least owed an explanation.

Clarice: Okay, but I just… I didn’t even realise how unhappy I was

until you showed up at the baby shower.

Leslie Shay: You don’t get to come back married and pregnant

saying that you miss me.

You walked away. You broke my heart. And hey, that’s

the way it goes, but this isn’t good for me right now,

Clarice. I’ve been fooling myself these last few days.

Clarice: I made a mistake.

[knocks on door]

Leslie Shay: [sighs]

Clarice: Okay, if that’s Daniel, I’m just… I’m not here. I will leave.

I will go home. I will. But just not right now, please.

Corrine: Hey.

Leslie Shay: Hey Corrine.

Corrine: I texted you a couple times.

Leslie Shay: I know. I’m… and I’m sorry. I’ve just been dealing with

something.

Corrine: Is everything okay?

Leslie Shay: Fine. Yeah, it’s fine.

Corrine: It’s just… I think I left my earrings here.

Leslie Shay: Oh, I’ll find them and I’ll get them back to you.

I’m sorry. Just… now is really not a good time.

Clarice: What was that?

Leslie Shay: Nothing.

Clarice: Okay, um… I’m gonna go.

Leslie Shay: Okay.

Clarice: Look, I didn’t mean to bring up any bad memories.

Leslie Shay: I don’t have any.

I just can’t go back.

Clarice: This should’ve been ours.

[door opens & closes]

Peter Mills: [sighs]

Ingrid Mills: See, this is where you belong, baby.

Peter Mills: Just give me a little room, mom.

cutscene

Mouch: Alright everybody, gather round.

We’re gonna trade t-shirts and patches in a bit but first, a

little competition.

The first one of you to climb up to the top gets a CFD

jacket. Sound good?

Gavin: That jacket’s mine.

Presley: Yeah, we’ll see.

Mouch: All right. And… one… two… three!

[water splashing]

Mouch: [laughs] Take that back to Cleveland, boys! [laughs]

Chief Boden: What the hell are you doing, Mouch?

Mouch: They’re not from Canada. Herrmann put them up to it.

Gavin: We’re from Canada!

Mouch: [laughs] No, no, no. Otis said… Otis… Oti…

[alarm sounds & beeps]

(Over PA): Ambulance 61, respiratory distress. 26 Orchard Street.

Leslie Shay: That’s Grace’s address.

Chief Boden: Hit it.

[siren wailing]

Housekeeper: I didn’t know what to do!

Gabby Dawson: Grace. You okay?

Housekeeper: In here! In here.

Gabby Dawson: [exhales sharply]

Leslie Shay: Doxepin, 150 milligrams.

Gabby Dawson: Oh man.

[zipper opens]

Gabby Dawson: Uh, why don’t you take Grace back into the living

room?

Housekeeper: Come on. Come with me.

Leslie Shay: Shallow breaths, rapid pulse.

Gabby Dawson: Alright, let’s get her to Lakeshore.

I’ll start an IV in the rig, you get an order to push

bicarb.

[exhales] She’s gonna be okay, Grace.

cutscene

[knocks on door]

Otis Zvonecek: You wanted to see me, Chief?

Chief Boden: That time you put all that hot sauce in Hadley’s

burger, that was funny.

Otis Zvonecek: Oh, I can’t take credit for that, Chief. I got that from

Dumb and Dumber.

Chief Boden: And the other time you put the blow-up doll in

Herrmann’s bunk, that was equally funny.

Otis Zvonecek: That was all me.

Chief Boden: Today, that was not funny. I mean, breaking balls is

one thing. But those men… they did not pay their

own way and drive ten hours...

[door closes]

Chief Boden: ...to come here to be the butt of a joke. When we

have a guest in this house, you will treat them as

such. Do you understand me?

Otis Zvonecek: Yes, Chief.

Chief Boden: So now you’re gonna walk back out there like the man

I know you to be.

You’re gonna look ‘em in the eye, shake their hand,

and apologise, because when they go back home

and their men ask them what the CFD were like,

they will be able to say we are stand-up.

[door opens]

Connie: Chief. You need to get to Lakeshore.

Chief Boden: That’ll be all.

cutscene

Mouch: And she couldn’t get into the United Stated, so I agreed to

meet her in Toronto. An immigration attorney there was

going to facilitate her American citizenship. I gave her the

five grand for his fees… never saw either one of them

again.

Joe Cruz: Well, yeah, but if she was Russian, why hate on Canada?

Mouch: Two extra weeks I’m up there getting the run-around from

various government agencies. I end up at the Canadian

anti-fraud centre.

Want to know what they said?

Buyer beware. And didn’t the weasel behind the counter

get a little chuckle at my expense?

Gavin: Mouch, on behalf of the commonwealth of Canada, we

apologise.

Mouch: I appreciate that.

[door opening]

Presley: Lieutenant?

I-I don’t want to get in anyone’s business here, but if I

may...

Matt Casey: Please.

Presley: Only because I was recently in Peter’s situation. Uh, I

received a call that involved… an infant mortality. And

uh, it-it really got to me. Uh, but our Lieutenant at the

time… he did something that really helped us out.

cutscene

Chief Boden: She’s on a ventilator now, and dialysis to help clear

the doxepin.

We just have to wait and see.

Man 3: Are you Gabriela Dawson?

You’re the one who accused Nina of poisoning our

daughter?

Chief Boden: Sir, your wife…

Man 3: You did this! You did this to her!

Chief Boden: Gabriela… I notified the Union, just in case the cops

want to talk to you. You need to be ready.

cutscene

Matt Casey: Mills, it’s Casey. Listen I know lots of people have been

talking to you today, uh, but before you make a

decision, I want to show you something. I can swing

by the restaurant after shift. And, um, please, just trust

me on this.

[cell phone beeps]

Leslie Shay: Don’t worry, we’ll get through this.

[door opens]

Man 3: It’s all right, sweetheart. Tell her what you told me.

Girl 1 (Grace): She made me drink it.

Gabby Dawson: [sighs] It’s okay.

It’s okay, sweetie.

Mouch: You really outdid yourself this time, Otis.

Otis Zvonecek: I feel horrible.

Mouch: Well, you should.

Otis Zvonecek: And what’s worse, they were so classy about it.

[sighs] So you were in love with that woman?

Mouch: Nah.

Lesson learned though.

Lesson learned.

Otis Zvonecek: Oh those dicks.

Corrine: Is Shay here?

Kelly Severide: She’s not.

Corrine: I just want my earrings.

Kelly Severide: Um… come on in.

[door closes]

Kelly Severide: You want a beer?

Corrine: Sure.

You know, I don’t know why she’s been so opposed to

calling me back.

Kelly Severide: She’s been going through some ex-girlfriend drama.

Corrine: See, all she had to do was tell me. I’m not looking to bring

any drama to her life. I’m just looking to have some fun.

Kelly Severide: No, I hear you. Keep it short and sweet. That’s my

policy.

Corrine: Exactly.

Kelly Severide: Hmm.

[cell phone vibrates]

Kelly Severide: Hey, it’s me.

Leslie Shay: Hey.

Kelly Severide: Um, real quick, Corrine… Um do you have any

claim to her?

Leslie Shay: Kelly, why?

Kelly Severide: Because if you do, then I’ll walk her to the door.

Leslie Shay: [scoffs] Knock yourself out.

Kelly Severide: You all right?

Leslie Shay: Have fun.

Matt Casey: This is Peter Mills.

Man 4 (Gary): Hey, how you doing?

Peter Mills: Hey, nice to meet you.

Man 4 (Gary): Come on in.

Make yourselves comfortable.

Matt Casey: Thank you.

Man 4 (Gary): Sophie, Lieutenant Casey is here!

Matt Casey: Their last house burned down a couple years back.

We responded to the call.

How’s she doing?

Man 4 (Gary): She gets her learner’s permit next week. Can you

believe it?

Matt Casey: Sophie’s driving?

Man 4 (Gary): Well, not till next week, she’s not.

Matt Casey: [chuckles]

Girl 2 (Sophie): Lieutenant Casey!

Matt Casey: There she is.

Peter, this is Sophie.

Peter Mills: Hey.

Girl 2 (Sophie): Come on, I want to show you something.

Matt Casey: What have you got?

What is this?

‘Second place, girls sectional finals.’ Congratulations.

Girl 2 (Sophie): Thanks.

Peter Mills: Sorry.

Girl 2 (Sophie): Don’t be. I don’t mind. Lieutenant Casey pulled me

out of that fire.

[chuckles] I’m alive.

The fluid keeps your lungs from filling with enough air, which means less oxygen reaches your bloodstream. This deprives your organs of the oxygen it needs to function. Symptoms include shortness of breath, rapid breathing, and bluish skin colouration.

Two-to-one pulley system = System consisting of two pulleys (wheel on an axle or shaft that is designed to support movement and change of direction of a taut cable or belt or transfer of power between shaft and cable or belt) with a rope running around them to lift a load. Using two or more pulleys reduces the amount of effort needed.

Amp = Ampule is a small sealed glass capsule/vial containing liquid, especially a measured quantity ready for injecting.

D50 = Used in emergency care to treat hypoglycemia (low blood sugar) and to manage coma of unknown origin. An amp of D50 is 25 grams of glucose in a 50ml prefilled syringe (50% glucose). An amp of D50 provides 5 times the amount of glucose in a normal adult’s blood.

Turpentine = Fluid obtained by the distillation of resin harvested from living trees, mainly pines. It is mainly used as a solvent, and as a source of material for organic syntheses.

Munchausen by proxy = Mental health problem in which a caregiver makes up or causes an illness or injury in a person under his or her care, such as a child, an elderly adult, or a person who has a disability (See the Gypsy Rose Blanchard and her mother Dee Dee’s case for a famous example of Munchausen by proxy)

DCFS = Department of Children and Family Services

Doxepin = Medication used to treat major depressive disorder, anxiety disorders, chronic hives, and trouble sleeping.

Bicarb = Sodium bicarbonate is an antacid used to relive heartburn and acid indigestion.

Stand-up = Loyal; that you can rely on to defend you

Dialysis = Procedure to remove waste products and excess fluid from the blood when the kidneys stop working properly. It often involves diverting blood to a machine to be cleaned.

[TASK 178: GRENADA]

There’s a masterlist below compiled of over 230+ Grenadian faceclaims categorised by gender with their occupation and ethnicity denoted if there was a reliable source. If you want an extra challenge use random.org to pick a random number! Of course everything listed below are just suggestions and you can pick whichever faceclaim or whichever project you desire.

Any questions can be sent here and all tutorials have been linked below the cut for ease of access! REMEMBER to tag your resources with #TASKSWEEKLY and we will reblog them onto the main! This task can be tagged with whatever you want but if you want us to see it please be sure that our tag is the first five tags, @ mention us or send us a messaging linking us to your post!

THE TASK - scroll down for FC’s!

STEP 1: Decide on a FC you wish to create resources for! You can always do more than one but who are you starting with? There are links to masterlists you can use in order to find them and if you want help, just send us a message and we can pick one for you at random!

STEP 2: Pick what you want to create! You can obviously do more than one thing, but what do you want to start off with? Screencaps, RP icons, GIF packs, masterlists, PNG’s, fancasts, alternative FC’s - LITERALLY anything you desire!

STEP 3: Look back on tasks that we have created previously for tutorials on the thing you are creating unless you have whatever it is you are doing mastered - then of course feel free to just get on and do it. :)

STEP 4: Upload and tag with #TASKSWEEKLY! If you didn’t use your own screencaps/images make sure to credit where you got them from as we will not reblog packs which do not credit caps or original gifs from the original maker.
