Um, it's actually 365 days until next Halloween (leap year, you know). Except in 'mare's world. :)

Agree on all counts. I think House is behaving abominably, although I do like that he 1) returned Wilson's money and 2) gave Adams an opportunity to vent. And if you're going to write such a ficlet, of course I vote yes!

Yeah, House is being really awful, even by House standards. It's as if being in prison made him worse in most ways. I'd like it if he were to return to his early-season levels of assholery instead.

I was happy that he gave Wilson's money back even though Wilson hadn't caught the theft yet. I'm sure the thing with Adams was probably more for House's enjoyment than for Adams' sake, but it also felt like vicarious venting on his part, to me. Like he's being so horrible because he's still angry about a lot of things, and he got some satisfaction for himself that way, too.

I agree that the thing with Adams was for House's enjoyment, and for vicarious venting. (It was as a treat for Adams, too -- she did give him cash to fund his stock speculation.) I also think it was bonding. Now House, Park, and Adams have all three used violence of one type or another to deal with unsatisfactory personal relationships. house wants to know the drive, the id, is in there.

I like that he returned Wilson's money ... although he didn't tell Wilson he was taking it, and he didn't give Wilson any return on investment, so ... he was typical House. : )

If we don't get any canon lovin' between House and Wilson, the next best explanation for their relationship is that House is Wilson's teenaged son. Maybe nineteen or so. Enough to be able to be independent most days but with still some intense need for guidance, attention, and love. (And money.)

Glad you brought up the safety goggles. It was 4th wall breaking for me. Why wouldn't Adams' eyes be protected unless tptb thought her face was too pretty to cover up during the CG effects?

Not happy about the POTW (punch of the week) either, but prison is known to foster violent behavior. I chose to believe House's aborted punch was a non-move in the right direction.

And yes, a ficlet please. Halloween isn't over until the candy bowl is empty.

I probably wouldn't have thought about the safety goggles if the direction hadn't so clearly emphasized House putting them on. Eh.

Actually finished the ficlet! For once!

I comment just for belated use of this appropriate icon.
