Thank you. Yeah, I think a part of him has long been wounded. I'm glad you liked it. Thanks for reading and reviewing.

Very poignant.
I like your tie-in of the past to the present.

Great job. <3

Very powerful little ficlet and a nice insight into just how damaged House is yet there is a part of him that can't trust anyone with his hurts.

PS- I'm very sorry about your dog (I read you lost him today on another thread you responded to). It's so unfair that dogs have such short lives.

Thanks, I'm glad you liked it. I think this season we've really gotten a better look at how deep that damage goes. Thanks for reading and reviewing.
And yes, it is sad how short their lives are. Mine was just 10 and a half.

So sad! I want to cuddle House now :'(

I know what you mean. Thanks for reading and reviewing.

nothing boring or nontrivial about this story.

it hurt a little, like a paper cut would.:)

i thought you might make it get infected or something like that. yours is a great imagination.

Thanks. It was a fun challenge. I considered infection, but then felt like that might be cheating a little since it would make the infection and not the paper cut the driving force. Thanks for reading and reviewing, and the idea for this fic.
