... I can't watch Cuddy anymore without imagining her naked with Alan Shore.

[melannen]

This is a problem? How?

AS of this episode, actually, I'm nearly convinced that she's carrying Wilson's kid after all. . .Wilson and Alan would so not get along at *all*. It would be like oil and napalm.

[stellar_dust]

It would be AWESOME.

*That's* a plot bunny that wouldn't get jossed with aliens! Yesss.

[melannen]

SO write it! YAY!

[beraht]

I am unfamiliar with "joss" as a verb. Does it mean to make incredibly awesome? 'cause that's what my best guess would be.

[melannen]

Jossed: to have your fanfiction idea or pet theory violently and cruelly rendered uncanonical by the tyrannical whims of your show's writers.

Before I got into Buffy I used to think it had to do with the Scrabble dictionary meaning of Joss - we burn incense and pray before the shining idol not to make our lives meaningless! But alas it is an empty prayer.

[beraht]

Interesting. So how do aliens invalidate your House fic?

[beraht]

Because they all had aliens in them already! And now the show is going to do aliens, and do them differently, and where will I be left?

[erries]

I also thought it was rather, um, X-Filesy. Chips in the neck and kids floating horizontally out the window? Anyone? Bueller?

[stellar_dust]

Oohhhhhh, definitely. *g*

Hey, the first thing I ever tried to write for house was an XF crossover. The alien implants just make it ... more so.

[gaspaheangea]

They've been pretty clever doing the preview cuts. I suspect the abduction scene was a flashback which will be used for fleshing out the plot. And the alien dna can easily be rationalized as a House joke "well, it's bacterial dna, so of course it's alien as far as young Henry William McMulder is concerned"

[melannen]

Well, but even if they make a joke of it as play it off as *obviously* not real -it'll suddenly be canonical that House doesn't believe in aliens. :(
