Two Ancient One-Shots

[kidsnurse]

Whilst attempting to do an index for my stories, I discovered that still I had two one-shots over at the Pit that hadn't migrated over here.  So, here they be:

WHERE WERE YOU?  [rated G, House-Wilson friendship]

Greg House and James Wilson have been friends for a long time. They’ve discussed everything from movies to women to politics and religion.

Comments

and maybe, maybe, he's right...

[kidsnurse]

maybe, he's right

poor house; i don't think so. i think wilson's there because he truly wants to be there. that's what i like to think, anyway!

[pffff5]

Don’t get me wrong : I don’t think Wilson will ever let House down, I don’t want Wilson to ever let House down. I know how he feels about his friend, how badly he really wants to be here for him, whatever House might do and I’m sure he’ll always love him. Yes, he wouldn’t leave him physically, but emotionally

[kidsnurse]

If I got you right, House is afraid that if he admits this pain, he, himself, will drown because he’d have stopped fighting, and Wilson being by his side will no longer be a free decision.

yup--you nailed it! also, i believe that house equates vulnerability with weakness, and weakness with pity--and i don't think he could ever tolerate believing that wilson pities him [even though wilson doesn't, house might think he would if house allows his vulnerability to show]. hope that makes sense!

[pffff5]

Sure it makes sense .
I'm so relieved you considered my point of view without bashing me.
vulnerability/weakness/pity...how can someone like House deals with this.
I couldn't ? could I ?
That's not the point.
Eager to hear from you
Thanks, the usual,

[kidsnurse]

you considered my point of view without bashing me

sweetie, no! i'd never do that to anyone; it's not in my nature. but furthermore, you've been on of the most loyal followers of my work, virtually since i began posting here, and i value your opinion!

i used to post my fics only at one other site. but at that site, praise is freely given, whether it's deserved or not--and that isn't how a writer grows or improves. so i came to lj, because i hoped to find readers who aren't afraid to offer suggestions or criticism or analysis. and boy, did i find the greatest bunch of readers, you included!

and i'll tell you something--the comments, analysis, and concrit are my favorite type of comment. and if they lead to a spirited discussion? all the better, in my opinion!! because it keeps things interesting, and helps me to improve my writing--so we all benefit.

Thanks, the usual

no, hon--thank you, for faithfully commenting, and for sharing your perceptions on our favorite two guys!!

[pffff5]

"i used to post my fics only at one other site" : To me LJ is a cosy, warm, mature and friendly private club whilst FoneFotherFsiteDotNet is a world trade fair. Invaded by House/Cameron geeks.
;-)
I love your insights on our two boys. They're often like an echo of my own perception. And when they're not (I don't know if that ever happened actually, I couldn't come up with an instance), I love to discuss it with you.
Nice meeting you.
