Totally loved the whole thing but this:

But a fixed point nonetheless which, House would concede (but only under extreme duress bordering on torture), was good to know in these confusing times.

BEST one sentence summary of the house-wilson friendship I've ever seen!

Super! And this: Some things you could change, your face, your hair, your dress sense, even your IQ - but some things seemed set in stone. gave me a total Bruce Springsteen moment* (which is fitting, I suppose, since it's set in New Jersey).

* "...want to change my clothes, my hair, my face---" from Dancing in the Dark

oh wow. somebody wrote me something and it rocked! :DD Thank you so much!

Both the Doctor & House are in character and it's amazing. The dialogue of the Doctor is perfect; I'm picturing David Tennant; it's just brilliant. *squee* I love how House starts to write off the Doctor as just another drunk, decides to have a conversation and then dismisses him for the time-machine subject matter. but he still takes away the crux of the conversation: that while you can change, some things are set in stone and that even if you change, the people around you might not.

oh. naming Wilson as House's fixed point in nagging is hilarious. & I definitely agree with tania_sings that you nailed the House-Wilson relationship. ♥

Thank you so incredibly much, once again. I love this!

I loved this! I haven't seen House and know next to nothing about it, but I still enjoyed it a lot. I liked how to Doctor seemed to give House direction and make him accept some things that he hadn't before, which is, I think, what the Doctor most likes to do, and it was nice that even when he was hurting, he still helped someone. That makes no sense... Nice fic :)

"What is it about you lot and killing your Grandparents? That's the first thing you all say - why would you even want to? What did they ever do to you?
I am cackling like a crazy person right now. That was amazing. House's reactions to the Doctor and all of his thought processes were so realistic!

I also love how you wrote the Doctor. So in character with his manic charm and talking about things that poor House can't understand.

This was really fantastic!
