Wow. Just...wow. This was perfect, everything completely on point. I've been content to ignore the medical stupidity of this cancer arc for the sake of the Hilson drama, but your fic really brought to light everything that's wrong with it. Well done.

(Also, kudos for Wilson liking his eyebrows. We all do. :P)

The Hilson drama is great, but the medical stupidity... I can't ignore it. It's killing me. Especially since this is House, who relies on logic and math and rationality all the time.

Oh, Wilson's eyebrows. They could have a show of their own. I get a huge kick out of gifs that showcase his eyebrow movements. Haha.

reminds me. Should Wilson's hair not fall out from his little crazy bigbang chemo trip?

[knitty_woman]

My mom underwent chemo for lung cancer and didn't lose her hair. It's not a given, and depends on the type of chemo medication as well as the individual person.

wow. A bit angry are we? Let's hope DS will never have the misfortune to meet you in a dark alley... But if he does, give him one for me too.

[downuptime]

Whoops. Haha. But the medicine... how it's all been shot to hell... I can't take it. I really didn't mean for this to turn out so angry.

I just want House to express himself in some way other than drinking or taking more Vicodin. Lashing out and trying to literally knock sense into Wilson is relatively healthier than those two options. I think.

[luridlurker]

yes, and you did it in a really good way. And also yes, House should. Wilson is too emotionally... involved, ahem. To think straight. The guy is entitled to not thinking straight. He needs House now to make the decissions for him. You have it absolutely right. The thing is if he will do so inside the damn show as well... I still can't understand it, this arc should not have started two episodes ago and end in another two episodes (a whole season wasted!). Wilson dies inside four weeks of stage two cancer (ok not really but it is rushed, rushed, rushed. It should take him 10 years or something or not at all), talk about realism.

Another vote for Wilson's eyebrows, but one must do what one must. Killer last line from House. :-)

[downuptime]

I honestly wonder what Wilson thinks about his eyebrows, and whether he shapes them J I’m glad that last line came through! I had about ten variations of it.

This was fabulous and so very in character! Many thanks!

Thanks for reading!

YES, HOUSE. TELL IT LIKE IT IS.

I hope he does this and that's why Thirteen is there, to talk SENSE into Wilson who very likely does not have to die.

I would love to see this in the show - House using Wilson’s own method against him. And showing Wilson his successes. I just want to see House explode healthily and actually voice his feelings and not crack and bury it all in the oblivion offered by drugs and alcohol! I feel unsympathetic and evil for saying this, but Wilson is being stupid. Though that’s probably cos of the poor writing and premise of it all.

Thanks for reading!
