Hi!
Sorry I am not reading it because I'm going to work right now, I just wanted to wish you HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!!
Have a very very very nice day!

And thank YOU for my lovely, lovely presents. Absolutely beautiful and never too romantic. :)

Glad you received in time...anyway, really a small present for you!
I like your icon ;-)

1: Definitely worth the wait and all the teasing.

2: Wow. Just, Wow. Totally different flavor from Timbershiver's. So much so that I can't even see why you'd be worried.

3: I loved the Jack/House dynamic. Of course House would figure out that Jack's not from around these parts. Poor Jack, not being able to tell him. Can I say again that I loved the "there's a Wilson" line? It speaks volumes about House and Wilson's relationship.

4: 69 is HOT. You need to write more of it, now. Especially with that the tricks that Jack must know. I can't imagine how House would be able to speak after that.

5: For some reason, your House and Jack seem to understand each other more in that short time they have than anyone else around either of them (except Wilson, maybe, but his understanding was earned through massively hard work.)

6: Can you tell that the numbers are totally arbitrary?

Totally wonderful.

I had the advantage of know what timbershiver was doing as well as the responsibility to take mine in a different direction.

YAY for Arbitrary numbers.

Sixty-Nine is hot, but very tricky to write. It's one of those times where my single POV rule comes in really handy.

"There's a Wilson," was in my head from the minute I formulated the original concept.

Thanks for doing a lot of the hand-holding to get me through this and listening to my whinging and whining while I was writing this.

YOU ROCK!

I'll be back to read this later (am at work, boo) but in the meantime:

HAPPY BIRTHDAY!

Have a wonderful, wonderful day!

This is so good. Spot on in character for both of them, and too many good lines to pick out one. I love the "what's a Wilson" idea, and House's response to it, and the uneasy ease between them. Really, really nicely done.

karaokegal October 24 2007, 18:12:11 UTC

WHEW! Thanks. Since you know both fandoms really well and have strong opinions, especially on Jack, I'm happy you felt I hit the right notes for both of them.

Definitely a labour of love. (Using Brit spelling.)

Oh I loved this. There were more than a few very entertaining lines and the sex was, um, well, very good.

The characterization, and interaction was very realistic, very believeable. I vote we give Jack THIS Doctor, and give Ten the boot. At least this Doctor is willing to have sex with Jack AND not treat him like something unpleasant to avoid stepping in.

karaokegal October 24 2007, 18:19:58 UTC

I don't think this doctor can really solve all of Jack's Doctor Issues, but I'm glad they were able to have a good time together.

(Although let's face it, I think Ten has some Jack Issues of his own. If Jack is so distasteful to him, what should he care who or what Jack wants to flirt with?)

I'm glad this was an entertaining read. I intended to be on the lighter side. Thanks so much for reading and commenting.

jo02 October 25 2007, 05:42:54 UTC

You're right, the only thing this doctor can do is help Jack tick the box on HIS list, that says 'Have sex with the doctor', lol.

I think Ten has so many Jack Issues that it would take a whole season of Dr Phil just to get them sorted. It would have been nice if some of them could have been at least touched upon in the Utopia trilogy, but his sniping every time Jack said hello WAS a lovely humorous touch in an otherwise very dark story.

And I loved your touch above, with the whole gang gate-crashing Jack's party. And Owen leaning on the horn. It had to be Owen. Don't get me started on Owen . . .
