Summary
Sicktember Day 13- Chronic Illness
His body simply doesn't play by the rules. Which is why it's been pleasantly surprising, over the past few years, that he's been able to keep his malfunctions covert enough to avoid suspicion. Each faint at work has been in the lounge or bathroom, either hidden in plain sight feigning a nap, or curled in a cramped stall with his neck at an angle. When his GI issues play up, he blames bad takeout or, more profitably it seems, his anxiety. During migraine attacks and feverish spells, he tells the others that he's simply feeling a little ‘under the weather’.
And the good thing about County is that everybody's too busy to ask questions.
OR
Unbeknownst to the rest of the ER, Carter has POTS. During his first ever long shift as a surgical intern, it rears its ugly head to make his life a (barely) living hell.

Summary
“Carter slumped into a chair in the break room, pinching the bridge of his nose. Today sucked. His head hurt like hell, he felt like a dead man walking, and half the clinic patients seemed inclined to infect everyone with the seasonal plague. He’d had a case of pediatric drowning, he’d cracked an old man’s ribs before finding a DNR, and he’d forgotten to bring a coat, which meant he’d arrived soaked, and that he would be walking home in his lab coat. Maybe a car would mistake him for snow and run him over.”
Or
Carter forgets that people care about him. He gets reminded again.

Summary
he's been thinking about benton a lot lately. in a professional sense, sure - in the sense that he’s learning from him, that he spends every waking moment trailing him around, writing up his orders and mopping up his mess, but also in… other ways. in his weirdest moments, if he's being totally truthful, he's been thinking about benton's sex life. don't ask why, he just has.

Summary
The thumping bass line buzzes in Carter's ears, the smile on his face wide and uninhibited. He's drunk, giddily drunk, and the feeling of stray hands on his chest, his back, his arms as he wanders through the strobe-lit club is electric.
Carter is alive tonight.

Summary
Carter doesn't quite know what compels him to do what he does. Perhaps it's some misguided sense of heroism, his lifelong inability to just let things be when there's something- anything- he can do about it. Perhaps it's reckless stupidity brought on by yet another shift of doing anything but saving lives.
Whatever it is, he leans into it fully, and slips into the freezing depths.
OR
The one where Carter almost drowns.

Bad Things Happen Bingo | Prompt: Ear Injury
Doug watched it happen–he saw Carter come stumbling in, barely able to hold himself up as he dismissed Mark’s questions, and almost bumping right into Benton.
He didn’t hear the conversation, but he saw the sway that indicated Carter had stopped listening, and the stumble just slightly too far to catch himself, and how Benton had finally cut himself off as he realised what was happening.
OR
Sometime during Season 1, Carter gets a sinus infection that spreads to his ears, but is too stubborn to go home before his eardrum bursts

Summary
John flicked his eyes over the immediate area before he started toward the mouth of the ambulance bay where he’d be able to see across the street to Doc Magoo’s and the parking spaces available over there. He assumed that Andrew had driven, but standing there in the moment he started to question it.
“John.” The familiar rasp was pitched just loud enough to carry and John felt himself smile at the way it rolled over him like a physical touch as he turned his head. Andrew stood there, sunglasses on his nose and hands tucked into his jacket pockets, looking just as Susan had described him.A sequel to our lives may not have fit together

Summary
It started small. Real small. Barely a whisper.
Doug noticed it first. Carter had that look. That look that wasn’t just tired or stressed or “I’ve-been-in-surgery-for-eight-hours,” but that weird haunted thing, like he was trying not to be. Trying not to be seen. Head down, stethoscope all tangled like he didn’t have the energy to fix it. Caffeine on his breath, skin pale, lips just a little too blue.
