what a chilling, disturbing concept... and you've executed it brilliantly... even your minor characters have a depth that i can picture them due to your descriptions... very good descriptions also of everybody's reactions to what's happening... i loved this and it would actually make an excellent starting point for a longer fic ;) *hint hint*

Thank you! ♥ I'm really glad you liked it. I tried really hard to ensure all the minor characters had distinct personalities because I figure that's how House sees people: by their personality traits.

I don't even watch House, and I loved this. Oh the anger. 'Tis good.

Hee, I only keep up sporadically with the show, and this is only the second fic I've written in this fandom, but damn it was fun to write! I love apocalypse fics. XD

Oh, man. The woman putting her hands over her little girl's ears before she mouths: 'live free, or die' was just... yes. That's a fantastically chilling, powerful moment.

Thank you! ♥ I'm really glad you liked that bit! It's one of my favourites too.

That's a terrible chilling future you describe here. I would like to read more of that.
Great work.
