Our Characters
Matthew Casey JOURNAL: fightfirewithfire ABOUT: Lieutenant, Matthew Casey, Truck 81. He has a side job as a contractor. As the leader of the truck, he has a no-nonsense attitude and commands respect at the risk of alienating some of his housemates due to his stand-offish demeanor. He was engaged to Dr. Hallie Thomas for a time, but they decided to break it off, at which point he tentatively pursues Gabby Dawson. Casey is also burdened by his ex-convict mother, who shattered the family 15 years earlier after murdering his father. Kelly and Matthew Casey are coworkers and lieutenants at the fire station who have a rocky relationship with each other. They are constantly butting heads. PB: Jesse Spencer	Kelly Severide JOURNAL: severide ABOUT: Lieutenant, Kelly Severide, Rescue Squad 3. Kelly is strong yet slightly more charismatic than Casey, which lends itself to his ladies' man persona. He is plagued with an injury that has put his career in jeopardy. He's been working with what amounts to a broken neck for over a month since Darden's death, and has developed a need for painkillers as a result. He does not want to go on sick leave so he tries to cover it up, disregarding the potential consequences. PB: Taylor Kinney	Leslie Shay JOURNAL: dontthinkjustdoit ABOUT: Paramedic, Leslie Elizabeth Shay, Ambulance 61. She and Severide share an apartment as roommates and are best friends. She has been supplying him, as she is a paramedic, with pain medication to help with his neck injury. Shay is openly gay and is entangled in a relationship with an ex-lover who was most recently married and impregnated by a man. She is fiercely loyal to her friends, particularly Kelly, whom she has risked her job for several times. Gabriela Dawson is her fellow paramedic at the firehouse. They are very close and there is speculation that they may harbor an attraction towards one another. They comfort and help each other in many situations which is a testament to their strong friendship. PB: Lauren German	Gabriela Dawson JOURNAL: keepingitcool ABOUT: Paramedic in Charge, Gabriela Dawson, Ambulance 61. Dawson has recently found herself in trouble for leaping before she looks on various calls, which has led to her being written up several times. Dawson has an unrequited crush on Matthew Casey. This relationship comes to a semi-climax at her family Christmas party, to which Dawson brings Casey as a 'casual' date. He appears to have shown interest in her only to stop her when she goes to kiss him, telling her it was worth doing right. Gabriela often shares what has been deemed 'eye-sex' with Shay and there has been speculation about their feelings for one another. PB: Monica Raymund
