Without being in the least angsty you've pointed out what I think is one of the biggest tragedies of House's life

and there you have the 'deeper' reason that i wrote this. yeah, i wanted to do a lighter piece--but i also saw the potential for the poignance of house having to come up with a 'cover story.' thanks for recognizing that as well.

wait a second here! the reason i asked you to be a first reader is because your analyses of house and wilson and all the aspects of their "stupid, screwed-up friendship" just take my breath away!

so i can spell, utilize grammar in a (generally) correct manner, and usually string together an actual plot. i wasn't looking for a traditional beta--i was hoping to be able to feed off your brilliant analytical ability. and that's precisely what i'm doing, m'dear; don't sell yourself short!

Have to agree with that -- which is why, even while stories like this one crack me up, I'm still so aware of what's under the humor, and the way these guys use humor to get around that awful, tragic wall that House (and, I would argue, Wilson as well) has built around himself.

that awful, tragic wall that House (and, I would argue, Wilson as well) has built around himself

agreed, on the wilson thing. and you, i would argue, are the master of that, what with your fics Horrible Reign of Wilson the Second, and of course, the amazing High, wherein house's analysis of 'wilson's walls' is written to perfection.
