You sent the case to Diagnostics. I diagnosticked it and I'm sending it back.

This cracked me up. It seems so him.

I love the way you wrote it like a script!

Thanks. I stole the script idea from a really great fic I read some time ago. It was written as a script and was the fic author's version of the S5 episode where Wilson washes Amber's coffee mug.

Here: http://www.fanfiction.net/s/5294231/1/RICE_in_Reverse

It was fabulous. In fact, I may have decided that this fic was too derivative of that one and scrapped it for that reason (or it might have been my lack of a clear vision for the story). It's been so long that I really don't remember--in fact I'd forgotten this fic even existed until I looked through my files for this challenge.

My heart just broke :( So sad!! :( Poor poor Wilson - I mean, he's lost basically everyone that matters to him in the course of a couple years :( Call him House!

Heartbreaking! Poor Wilson!

This seems pretty complete as is, though. Were you thinking of adding anything in particular?

No, it just felt like it wasn't fleshed out enough either to be considered a whole "scene". Thanks for reading. <3

I just never figured out where I was going with this, haha. Beware of R-rated language if you're bored enough to actually read it ( ... )

Glad to see this, Dee. :-D

Here's something I was playing around with a few years ago ...

*******

House uses his cane to sweep aside the ER curtain surrounding the bed. The metal rings rattle loudly as it slides open, and he grunts in satisfaction as the man on the bed flinches.

"What the hell were you thinking?" he growls. "Oh, wait -- you weren't. You couldn't have been, when you decided to drink and drive." Wilson flinches again and looks away, and House slams his cane down on the small metal table beside the head of the bed. The feeling of satisfaction is deeper this time, more visceral, and House keeps talking.

"Thought you were smarter than this," he says, not looking at Wilson. "Stealing pages from my book? Thinking you want to live dangerously? Take risks?House grabs Wilson's chart, gives it a cursory glance. He doesn't need to see it, Cameron's told him everything he needs to know, but he needs something to do with his hands and he doesn't want to have his cane in them ( ... )

Guh... such a good start to a very promising story. I'm sorry your muse regarding this one died. *Dons a black dress*

I started on this bit for the Wilson Hit by Car challenge thread on the h-w-chainfic livejournal site. Someone else continued the story before I could finish this bit, though, so I kept it with the intent to cannabilize some of the imagery later ( ... )

Your writing is wonderful - the dialogue is very IC but your descriptions are especially creative and vivid. Wish there'd been more before you stopped!

I like how you end in mid sentence - I do that in my fragment too:) I'm sorry you didn't get to use it in the chain_fic (: You know even if someone has done a continuation you can always post yours as well - one of the chains we have now had a split a fair way into the story and both threads have gone off in radically different directions...
