“Please join me in wishing the newlyweds great happiness. L’chaim!”

AH HA!!!!!!

Hee. This is wonderful. So needed right about now. And Wilson's wonderfully, courteously rude French phrases made me laugh excessively.

[deelaundry]

There it is - hee! I think I'll go back and thank you in the Note.

I was hoping those phrases came out fine. Bonjour is about the only word I know in French, but because "when chicken have teeth" is a French phrase, I just had to put a bit in.

Thank you, thank you!

This is genius! Sweet, witty and pure House. Great job!

[deelaundry]

Thanks!

Ohmygod. I LOVE YOU.

PIGS FLYING? Hahahaha.

Hell freezing over? My god -- you had me in stitches.

[deelaundry]

ILU too. Thanks!

Oh, that was awesome. The flying pigs! Hell freezing over! (Although technically, that should have been the clinic freezing over, but I can appreciate how that might have been logistically difficult.) The bantery proposal! The recording that Cuddy had! And House has been planning this for months, even. Fabulous story. I'm still grinning over it.

I think maybe Cuddy bargained her way out of the whole Clinic in ice (her office being inside the Clinic, which I've always thought was a strange setup).

I really want a remote-control flying pig. Maybe for Christmas.

Thanks!

“Bonjour,” Cameron replied, as she looked up from the book she’d been reading. “I decided to learn French while we’re between patients. Comment ça va?”

Why does this seem like something out of a webcomic?

I grinned doltishly at varying points throughout this. What an excellent pick-me-up. And Wilson really is adorable when he's oblivious.

[deelaundry]

Thanks! Don't know why it sounds like a webcomic - is that a good thing? The French was there to set up the "when chickens have teeth" hint, that being a French phrase. But I think I stretched too far. Thanks again!

[recrudescence]

It's a good thing, fear not; some of the House webcomics out there are flipping hilarious and it was way too easy to imagine a little cartoon Cameron gleefully piping up that she was learning French. Extra adoration for referencing fanvids, also.
