Here from topaz_eyes' rec.

What a terrific read! And the added bonus of a medical mystery -- not very many Housefic writers really do that anymore and here it provided a great counterpoint to the rest of the story.

Really, really enjoyed this.

Thank you so, so much! This is my first House fic, so I'm thrilled that the medical mystery worked for you-- I've never tried to write anything like that before! :)

This story's a treasure! Every little bit about House and Cuddy, including references to the last episode, were so perfectly captured.

I'm blushing from reading your lovely comment! I'm so happy to hear that the House/Cuddy interaction worked for you-- I've never tried to write them before, so I'm really happy you enjoyed reading this. :)

Wow, this was great! It has everything -- it's IC, it's LOL funny and it has a great medical mystery. And a happy ending! And your line "the botched boob grab" is just the funniest thing I've read for *ages*. Thanks for turning that terrible moment from trauma into comedy. I think you've saved me a fortune in therapy *g* (Oh, and Wilson ramming his elbow down on the horn... priceless :)

*mems*

Oh, my gosh, thank you so much for your incredibly thoughtful comment! It's made my day! :D

I'm so happy this worked for you because that's the exact same reason why I wrote this-- I was feeling so sad after "Let Them Eat Cake" that I had to write a happy get-together fic immediately!

Thanks again!! <3

Oh fabulous. I am so new to House fandom and I loved this! I don't think I'd have the patience to write House as well as Potter fanfic because of all the research, so I applaud you for that. And the story. It was fantastic and completely in character (and I should know. I've watch about 46 episodes since Friday--I brought Seasons 1, 2 and 3)

Hi, and welcome to the House fandom-- we're both newbies! *g* It is an incredibly addictive show, isn't it? I got into it while I was studying abroad in Ireland and I watched so many episodes back-to-back haha. I think I've finally seen every episode now (though I'm jealous of you-- I wish I owned some of the seasons too! *g*)

Thanks again for reading! I'm so happy you enjoyed this :)

They were on sale and I am a bit of an impulse buyer. That and I have a massive crush on Hugh Laurie, so the decision was made easier. I've got to live on boring food now that I have no money til payday...but boy, was it worth it!

House on sale is a beautiful, beautiful thing. Almost as beautiful as Hugh Laurie. :D He's the first "older man" crush I've ever had (I'm 20) and it makes the show that much more addictive :)

Maybe I'll get some seasons of my own for Christmas... *crosses fingers*

Now I'm the stalker-y one... I also saw you're from Australia... that is so cool! That's one of the places I've always wanted to travel (except for the US and Canada, I've only been/lived in Europe). Chase is actually one of my fav characters on House (and I totally ship Chase/Cameron). How do you feel about him as a character since he's Australian? Or does it not matter? (Sorry for my silly curiosity!)
