And you end it there, leaving us hanging until...when?

I loved the palm reader, and House's skepticism. I always go back and forth on stuff like that. And I loved your descriptions, especially of the cemetery. Never been to NOLA, so I enjoy reading all about it!

I'm working on the second part - won't be long!

I haven't been to New Orleans since right before Katrina, so I'm working from my often suspect memory. Thank you for reading!

I loved this so, so much and could not be more thrilled that there's a part II in the works. Everything was so bittersweet, and the last line - This was what it would be like, House realized, when Wilson was gone - was very moving. Well done on your portrait of New Orleans, as well!

Okay, you've got me hoked. Where'd Wilson go? Into a crypt? Taken by Marie Laveau? And, poor House, will his wish come true - think I know what it is! Can't wait for more!

Into a crypt? Taken by Marie Laveau?

I don't think it's anything as dramatic as that. But maybe I'll do a horror AU where that happens :)

Thank you for reading!

Sorry to hear it's the final instalment, but I'm glad it's only Part 1!

I enjoyed:

When Wilson turned back to House he looked tired. “Did you have to be so rude to her?”

“Yes,” House said

...

“Oh, stop acting holier-than-thou,” House bitched. “You hate it, too.

You've really made me want to travel to the US south, especially for the food.

I'm vegan so I've never had any of the food I'm writing about -- But I've been told by my dining mates that it's delish. Thank you for reading/commenting!
