Fragment: House and Wilson stormy night fic

[bironic]

I started this in 2007 as a surprise for elynittria (er, surprise?) based on a conversation she and purridot and I had, and I thought it would be an easy one-shot. No such luck. Here's what was going to happen: House and Wilson are caught in a terrible thunderstorm in the English countryside; they find a lit inn and take shelter; little do they realize that

Whatever this is, I adore it so far.

*grins*

And there will be time travel.

Yay!

[blackmare]

Oh, my.

They're in England. And time travel will be involved.

Are they ... about to meet an entirely different kind of doctor?

Please say yes please say yes please say yes ...

[bironic]

Oh, alas, no. I'm sorry! It is only inexplicable storm-induced time travel to bring together some people who live far apart in time and place.

[bironic]

Hee! I'd like to pretend that House was saying all that out loud.

[bironic]

It works both ways

Oh, good, I was hoping it would read that way.

I am very happy to hear that you approve of this House. :)

This is great! And I can totally hear House narrating that first paragraph as they struggle along. Looking forward to more!

[bironic]

Yay. I'm so glad to hear that House's opening monologue works for you; one of the things that has been plaguing me is that I've lost their voices in my head, which is something I've always had (until recently...) when I write fanfic. In drafts of other stories, it's been a struggle to get the dialogue sounding like they're speaking it. This one came out okay for a change -- maybe because they're bickering. Heh.

Anyway. This is another story for which I have some idea of where to take it, and even how to end it, but the middle is going to consist of formless conversation, which is a real challenge for my structure-loving self, and I don't know whether I'll be able to keep any momentum up on this thing with everything else that's going on. Still, it feels great to get something down that I like, even if it's unfinished.

EEEE! How very exciting!

*g* I was lucky that this beginning occurred to me for the months-old bunny just when I needed to write something.

House would taste terrible, wouldn't he?

Hope this was fun for you!

[bironic]

It was, and he so would.

Hope you're feeling better today. Happy Thanksgiving!
