Thanks for your comment; it's great to hear from you! I felt the absence of the rest of the cast in the episode and thought taking a look at their lives without House was worth doing.
(But I haven't been idle while waiting for the season to start: I'm also working on a large-scale AU of ruby_took's Werewolf Saga that I hope to start posting around Halloween, give or take a week.)
These are fantastic! I especially love that you get why Wilson hung up on House and didn't visit. From mailing lists I'm on, it appears few do. Lots of anger out there!
Each one of these was quite perceptive. I like how you also get the Chase-House relationship.
OH SUPER!!!! (Jumping up and down) I so look forward to your AU of ruby_took's Werewolf Saga. I love it! You two work so well together on it. Your writings complement each other so well, even when you do your own versions/stories.
It was fairly obvious to me why Wilson didn't visit: in the scene he was present, he made it clear he was committed to helping House recover, even if the best way to do that was by his absence.
The House-Chase mentorship/quasi-paternal relationship is something I enjoy exploring in fic: in many ways, they're similar people and have unique insight into one another.
(Thanks, too, for your compliment on the Werewolf Saga; I'll pass it along to the creatrix. The AU I'm working on will open about four years after "With Our Eyes Upon the Moon", and the House-Chase father/son relationship will be prominent for various reasons.)
This is really beautiful. Although I liked the episode, it was Disneyfied and didn't focus enough on the other characters. Your insight brings new depths. Particularly: "...she’s gotten used to having House as her personal cuckoo to punctuate the hours." "When House leaves Mayfield-when, not if; he’s not Danny, he can heal..." and "...he’s not even sure he believes anymore that prayers are heard, but acknowledging the wish behind the words counts for something."
