Thanks! My H/W fic started out fairly angst-ridden all the way back when I started writing it during the 2nd season of the show, and it pretty much got darker as the years went on because I do think that reflects the story they were showing us, even they sometimes tried to Ret-con and could never really come to terms with House as an addict. Thanks for reading and commenting.
Loved it but can't hardly bear the ending. Could you write another with this Wilson and maybe a slightly more sympathetic House and a happier ending? ;-) (should have read the warnings!)
I won't burden you with 8 years worth of my fanon and feels about the characters. (It's all there in my House-babble posts and the fic I wrote.) I will say that no, I can't write it with a happier ending because it would be a lie. I do believe that House and Wilson love each other, and I'm a complete tin-hat that they actually were having sex, possibly as early as Pre-infarction (I have several very dark fics on that them.) HOWEVER, I believe they will always end up hurting each other.
Thanks for reading and commenting. I really appreciate it.
This was definitely another way of looking at what might have happened between the two of them after House's "death".
My hopes are that, even though there might be relapses, House tries his best to be a better person for Wilson during their last journey. In your story, he just doesn't look like he gives a damn.
So well written, I was actually feeling disappointed towards House.
I honestly think this pretty much reflects the House we saw as opposed to the House that Shore tried to "tell" us there was. I do think House/Wilson is a kind of love story, but it's between a drug addict and his enabler/co-dependent, who is also a manipulative bastard.
I love writing the characters---I've spent a lot of the last 8 years with them in my head, but I have no illusions and I think anyone who believes in a happy ending is buying a lie.
Thank you for filling my prompt. This was certainly rather angsty and rather painful to read, but also incredibly well-written, in-character, and believable. It offers the sort of pain that sets a dull, satisfying, and painful ache in your stomach as you read. At least it did for me. :) I appreciate your consideration with regard to the warnings you posted, but to be perfectly honest, the only things that are too much for me to read are death fics and non-con. I'll give anything else a shot

Thank you for your lovely, detailed comment. I appreciate you reading the story, even though I know it's not what a lot of people want to see or believe for House/Wilson post-series

Never mind that Tritter (and even Vogler) started out as "real" characters who had genuine reasons to be at odds with House.
I definitely agree with you here.
I used to find Stacy irritating as well, when I began watching the series, but upon watching Season 7, I definitely agree that Stacy was probably the love of his life, and I really do like her character. (I was actually rather happy that she was in the finale.)
(I do think Wilson was as pissy with Stacy as he was with Cuddy when she was involved with House. He IS a jealous bitch, but he also uses his relationships with women to hurt House, because it's the only way he can.)I can see that viewpoint. I was always under the impression that he just didn't want Stacy or Cuddy to hurt House. I never considered that his relationships with women might be to hurt House. I sort of viewed it as his need to have a "normal" relationship, so that he could be viewed as normal. Of course, I'm not really sure. I've always felt that the series didn't go as deep with Wilson's character as

I recall Wilson telling Cameron he cheated on Julie, but I was never sure whether or not he cheated on Bonnie or Sam, or both.
From Spin: Wilson: Have you... ever cheated? Well, I have. You want to punish him, good for you; but you can't do it without punishing the people who love him. Cameron: Is that how you justified lying to your wives? Wilson: I always told them.
Note the plural, "them"
(By the way-I was re-reading the transcript to verify the quote...turns out Jeff had....a thymoma!)
