This is teeny tiny, I've had it floating around in my brain awhile, and I originally wrote a version of it for one [livejournal.com profile] mash100th challenge or another, I've forgotten which. But, here 'tis.

Soothes the Savage

Frank always hated the noise in the operating room. It spoke of chaos. Those two goons flirting with nurses (and, at times, Frank could swear, one another) shouting and, worse yet, singing.

But once stateside, Frank found he needed noise to concentrate and steady his hands as he worked. Classical at first and, though peaceful and mild, even the softest of symphonies never did the trick. He switched to standards, My Blue Heaven and others, bought recording after recording, trying to find the right one.

And after the fourth try he thought back on Korea and realized he never would.
