Summary
Mel’s third-favorite scene in Dirty Dancing is only a second long. It’s when Johnny jumps off the stage during the final dance and flips his head up right on cue with the singer crooning “Hey, baby!”
So it was very distracting that, for the rest of the day after her karaoke session with Myrna, Frank had been quietly singing those two words to her every time they ran into each other. A “Hey baby!” when he slid into the chair next to her in the breakroom. Another when they met in the middle both jogging to an ambulance.
She couldn’t help but laugh every time he did it which, knowing Frank, meant he’d probably do it tomorrow, and the next day, and the next.

Summary
Nails clacking on the linoleum. A soft, “Find Robby!” Excited panting, dancing nails, a big fluffy dog barreling into them. As he’d been trained to do, Andy bullied his way into Robby’s lap, pushing his big fat head between their arms and legs and chest, pushing his shoulders into the gap, pawing obnoxiously on Robby’s legs until they lowered them to sprawl in front of them. And then Andy—all 150lbs of him—plopped into Robby’s lap and leaned most of his weight onto Robby’s chest. He started panting, tail thumping against Robby’s leg, all stinky, wonderful dog breath right into Robby’s shoulder.
It was hard to breathe for another reason—this one much more welcoming.
Robby buried their hands into Andy’s brindle fur, hugging him close. Pretending their eyes weren’t warm and wet. “Good boy, Andy,” they murmured into his fur.

Summary
He’d split a rock on his head as a child. He’d ripped a nadder’s head from its shoulders as a baby. He’d been made chief when his father died to dragons, and as chief he’d watched his Valka miscarry for years only to be snatched away by dragons from their only surviving child; and, nearing what should have been the end of his time as chief, his heir and son had gone missing, probably because of dragons too. And he’d survived that. The people of Berk were tough, worn and weathered and rooted down into the earth like the mountain against whose base they had settled.
But Stoick wasn’t so certain anymore that they could survive much longer. Hiccup was gone, but the village still skirted disaster; Astrid was his heir, but the Berk she was inheriting was char and charcoal.
After Hiccup went missing Stoick's certainty in victory against dragons disappeared too. A mysterious Dragon Master offers hope, but hope is a man with a Night Fury for a shadow and a power that brought the tyrant who last bore that title to his knees.

Summary
Hiccup and Toothless are confronted by the enigmatic dragon thief that seeks to take them as hostages. They go down together -- and they go down hard.
(Or: I take one of my favorite scenes from HTTYD2 and slow down the pace of it while throwing in some extra stakes by having Hiccup and Toothless fall together.)

Summary
Hallucination, right? Has to be. But then Stoick pressed his axe close enough to graze the bottom of Hiccups chin and nope, nope, not a hallucination. “I— I don’t understand.”
“Did the dragon get you? Have you seen it?”
“Dragon,” Hiccup repeated numbly. Dragon. He knew that word. Definitely knew it. It sure sounded familiar. “Dr—Dragon! The dragon. Right, um, yes, right, uh— Yellow scales, four wings… that dragon?”
“Are there other dragons about?” It wasn’t a rhetorical or teasing question, but a man asking how many enemies were around him.
“No, uh. No. I just… I saw it crash into the ground and— wait, you crashed with it?” Hiccup suddenly realized. “What were you doing with that dragon?!”
Stoick leaned back from Hiccup just long enough to raise his axe. “What do you think I was trying to do, boy?”
Oh.
Oh.
--
Hiccup is still mourning the death of his father one year prior when a mysterious dragon crashes, somehow bringing a Stoick from the past with it. For a moment, it's like a miracle, until he realizes that this version of his father isn't the one he lost, but the one he's spent years trying to forget.- Language:

Summary
"Significant pulmonary contusion and multiple rib fractures, and there's very likely a subdural hematoma in there too,” Garcia says grimly, sounding like she's citing it to herself rather than to anyone else in the room. “We’re lucky it's most probably small, but given her fluctuating GCS it still concerns me quite a bit. Also, besides the shard of metal, the bruising and swelling along her abdomen suggests the possibility of internal bleeding as well, but we need to get in the OR to fully evaluate the severity of it."
“Jesus King,” he murmurs. “You were supposed to have the day off.”
or: there's a car accident on mel's day off. she ends up at the pitt anyways.

Summary
Kiara continued, “Oh, before you go, I keep forgetting to tell you. I know Robby is always reminding you all that I’m here to talk, if you ever need it, but I wanted to mention that we also have a program specifically for supporting neurodivergent staff.”
“Oh,” said Mel, “That’s great!”
“Does that mean you're interested?”
Mel blinked. “Interested?”
“In the…” Kiara stopped, expression shifting in a way that Mel couldn’t quite identify. “Oh. I… I’m sorry, I got the impression-”
“Wait,” blurted Mel, “you thought- No. I’m not, um, I’m not neurodivergent.”
Or, Mel's coworkers seem to be under the misconception that she is autistic. Which she is not, obviously. Right?

“I’m going to be a mom,” Mel whispers, sounding awed. Samira looks at her and sees Mel’s wet smile. She laughs and reaches over to hug her friend.
“You’re going to be an amazing mom!” she laughs. “Oh my God, this is so exciting! Langdon's going to be so happy, I just know it!”
Mel’s eyes go wide again.
“Oh God, we’re going to have to actually tell everyone we’re together now!”
Or: Mel's pregnancy through the eyes of her (sometimes incredibly oblivious) coworkers.
