YES!! Someone who actually thought the same thing I did. This was AMAZING!

Okay so at first for the show I thought that Wilson was going to see dead!Amber but then House did right? But I also thought that maybe Wilson was the one to go crazy because dammit we need some sick!Wilson here.
Ya know, all the crap he's been through.

I'm still convinced that his conversation with Cuddy meant something deeper.
"I can't deal with this and House." I wonder what will happen for next season. Anyways.

Lovely story love, I do hope to see more from ya. ^_^

"...because dammit we need some sick!Wilson here."

Truer words were never spoken. Er, written. :)

Wilson is rather overdue for a breakdown, isn't he? I'm still terribly disappointed that he didn't have one during the Tritter arc. Thank goodness fan fiction allows us to set things right. ;)

Thanks for reading!

I did not see that coming. What a clever twist on the events of the finale.

If wanting to give a great big hug to a fictionalized version of a fictional character is wrong, I don't want to be right.

(((((((((((((((((Wilson))))))))))))))))))))))

Thanks for sharing this.

*rubs hands together in fiendish glee*

I'm thrilled that you liked my rather twisted take on things. :)

And if you find out where the line forms to give Wilson a hug, please let me know!

Oh, that was fantastic! I was very excited to see something new from you, and you didn't disappoint--the little bit with Pheidippides, the way Wilson's thoughts really show that he's disconnected from reality even at the beginning (when you go back and reread, the hints are there--so cool!), and House's gesture at the very end makes me *wibble* with delight. Thank you, thank you! *tags on delicious*

I'm humbled by such awesome feedback, and am very glad you enjoyed this story. :)

After suffering from one of the worst cases of writer's block ever, I had a lot of fun with this--weaving canon and subtle clues together to put the season finale in a completely different light. And I'm glad you appreciated the Pheidippides reference. :)

Thank you!

Hee! Sneaky little devil, aren't I?

I'm delighted that you enjoyed my devious little twist, and the much needed comfort there at the end.

Thanks much!

Oh, wow. This is great. This progressed really well and put a really interesting spin on the entire season. Very cool.
