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.

Thank you.
I loved your explanation to Wilson's absence during to the infarction. I think it's the only explanation possible. And I loved the way you described it all, in all the three installments. Your House and Wilson even better than the canon ones to me, because you go and tell what it's missing in the show in such a moving and deep way, and that is what their charachters deserve.
I've always been wondering why Wilson is never mentioned to have been close to House during the infarct, and found this would have been a very interesting thing to tell about in some episode. But no episode had the chance to explain that...

i wrote where were you? for just the reasons you describe; i couldn't imagine wilson not being there without a very good reason, and it seemed as if the show's writers weren't ever going to address the question--so i did! :-)

and i'm so pleased that my portrayals of house and wilson touch you so deeply; comments like yours are a very big part of why i write--thank you.

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!

Where in central Florida? I grew up in Mulberry and Bartow. I've got 75 relatives first cousin or closer in Polk County. Five generations of Pipkin and Spence are buried in the old Fitzgerald Cemetery by Scott Lake between Bartow and Lakeland. My daddy was born in Land Pebble (gone now ... it was one of the phosphate "company" towns between Mulberry and Lakeland. Clark Lake (also between Mulberry and Lakeland) is named after my paternal grandfather ... he was mining superintendant when it was dug.

Cheers,
