	What do you mean by that? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I mean [A long pause as she tries to order her thoughts in the windstorm of the Doctor's opinions.] I mean... don't fix their sanity with yours. Take a break sometimes. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I wish it was that easy. Enough people get lost in the system without me taking a vacation from it all, unfortunately. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	The world would go on without you for a wee little while. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: Sunny & The Doctor/October breadcrumb 2012-12-10 12:17 am UTC (link)
	You make it sound so simple. The world may go on, but I'm not sure that I know how to do without my work. Therein lies the real problem. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Practice. Play hooky one afternoon. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: Sunny & The Doctor/October breadcrumb 2012-12-10 04:25 am UTC (link)
	Play hooky. Where I'll spend the afternoon thinking of the patients I could be seeing and the work that I could be getting done. I don't relax, Sunny. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: Sunny & The Doctor/October number11 2012-12-10 04:28 am UTC (link)
	And if I was one of your patients and I said that, what would you tell me? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[...] Please don't turn my own advice, whatever that might be, back upon me. This is my job. And people rely upon me, and I'm perfectly fine with being the one they rely upon. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Oh, answer the question, you big baby. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: Sunny & The Doctor/October breadcrumb 2012-12-10 04:45 am UTC (link)
	I would tell you to make yourself take a day off and not think about work. To get out of town, if that was what it took. And I am not a big baby. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: Sunny & The Doctor/October number11 2012-12-10 04:49 am UTC (link)
	There you go. So get on with it. You don't want the Doctor to take steps. He'd kidnap you. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: Sunny & The Doctor/October breadcrumb 2012-12-10 04:52 am UTC (link)
	And I've already told you that I can't take a day off. Or an afternoon. The moment I did, something would happen and I would regret it. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	And if you fall apart, then who is going to help all your precious patients from going bumfuck crazy? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: Sunny & The Doctor/October breadcrumb 2012-12-10 05:13 am UTC (link)
	Not laughing or smiling often does not equate to falling apart, Sunny. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: Sunny & The Doctor/October number11 2012-12-10 05:18 am UTC (link)
	Eventually. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: Sunny & The Doctor/October breadcrumb 2012-12-10 05:20 am UTC (link)
	Maybe for some. Not for me. I know the signs of being overworked, the signs of stress, and I've none of them. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: Sunny & The Doctor/October number11 2012-12-10 05:27 am UTC (link)
	Oh yeah? Like not laughing and not wanting to leave work for fear it will implode without you? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: Sunny & The Doctor/October breadcrumb 2012-12-10 05:31 am UTC (link)
	People need someone they can rely on to be there when they need it. I can't be that person if I'm more concerned with myself. I have to put that aside in favor of them. I chose this career, and I knew quite well what I was getting into. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Okay, Mr. Martyr. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Suit yourself. We're just trying to help, we are. Owe you favors. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: Sunny & The Doctor/October breadcrumb 2012-12-10 11:47 pm UTC (link)
	I know you're trying to help, but you don't owe me anything. I mean that. [...] I've a night off this week. Maybe we could meet for dinner? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: Sunny & The Doctor/October number11 2012-12-10 11:49 pm UTC (link)
	[Pause.] Not too public. He thinks things and I say them sometimes. I'll cook you something at my place. It's not a date. Sound good? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: Sunny & The Doctor/October breadcrumb 2012-12-10 11:52 pm UTC (link)
	His presence that strong, I take it? And that sounds excellent. And no, not a date. Just dinner. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I'm off Wednesday. Does that work for you? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: Sunny & The Doctor/October number11 2012-12-13 03:21 am UTC (link)
	Sure. Are you vegetarian? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: Sunny & The Doctor/October breadcrumb 2012-12-15 12:29 am UTC (link)
	No, and no allergies either. I'll see you Wednesday. (Reply to this) (Parent)
