Angsty. Ooo. I love it. Sometimes, I think I'm a masochist because I live for this stuff. :P The numb feeling you've got going through this entire chapter was just... amazing. I can only imagine how horrifying this actually is. Yet, it's realistic enough. Excellent, once again! You never cease to amaze me with everything you write.

Thanks. Cuddy definitely seems the type to deal by repressing and pretending everything's all right.

Poor poor Cuddy. If only she was less stubborn and let House comfort her. But that's so like Cuddy

Love this

I love it; you've caught her mood so well, and yet there's still lots of snark. The lobotomy line was great - would quote but for some reason it's not letting me. Looking forward to seeing how this plays out.

Thank you!

I could definitely see House attempting to puzzle out how she's doing and distract her by pulling bigger antics than usual.

OMFG. I leave for like 2 days without an internet connection & this is what I come back to? Amazing fic? I LOVE IT! Maybe I should leave more often...lmao. This was seriously FABULOUS! I loved it & was SO, SO disappointed to see it end there. :( I want the next part, like, YESTERDAY. Got it? lmao. What would be really funny is if you already posted the next part & I just haven't gotten there yet...*crosses fingers* lol. Either way, I LOVE IT & desperately want more.

Just caught up with this little series - I especially appreciate how adult it is (as in grown up/mature, not as in porny). And it is sad but not in a gratuitous, over-the-top-angst-fest way. Enjoying it, and looking forward to more, thanks.

Thank you very much. Keeping the sentiment honest while also keeping the characters in-character has been a challenge. It's so nice to hear that it's working for you as a reader.
