This indeed has been a most magnificent ride. Wonderful ending. House and Wilson together. Can't have it any other way. Thank you for letting me read this.

And now that you've finished this, maybe you'll write something else I can obsess over?

Thank you kindly! I was sorely tempted to have a bittersweet, slightly depressing ending, but couldn't quite do it.

And now that you've finished this, maybe you'll write something else I can obsess over?

There's a few things in the works. I think I'm going to take a small vacation before writing another bloody novel, however.

YES YES YES

I KNEW IT

AND YET I THOUGHT MAYBE YOU WEREN'T GOING TO DO IT AND I WOULD CRY. BUT YOU DID IT. AND I DID ALMOST CRY A LITTLE BIT BUT NOT AS MUCH AS I WOULD HAVE DONE. SORRY ABOUT THE CAPSLOCK, BUT IT IS REQUIRED.

Sorry. But, oh my God. I love that Wilson saved House/Mika without a thought, even though he was furious with him, and that Wilson is sarcastic even immediately after death, and I'm torn between wishing there was more and loving the way you tied it up.

I'll just have to look forward to your next piece, I guess...

Thank you. And I love you and your capslock button.

As the next piece, what's not to love? I mean, House is going to sing Issac Hayes and Wilson will be singing Bon Jovi. Who could ask for more than that in a fic?

The karaoke story! Have you started it yet?

Yeah. I've got about 9 pages so far, and I think it's roughly halfway through. I got distracted by writing this (I seriously have something like 9 unfinished writing projects right now) but I'm going to start working on it again. Because, crap, the deadline is for the end of the month, isn't it?

I refuse to even entertain for a second the notion that this story is up!

There surely is an epilogue (or two) waiting to be written.

We need to see Wilson get a new body. What's he gonna look like? Does he have a religious crisis? Can he actually live (die?) with House for a hundred years without, well, killing him???

Please, pretty-pretty please?

Love it!!!

Thank you!

As for the epilogue... we'll see.

Is this "we'll see", as in "we'll see the epilogue up in a couple days or so"? I mean, I assume it is, but it's always nice to make absolutely sure.

"Of course you would find a way to mess with my head from beyond the grave!" he shouted at House. "You ass. You complete bastard. You couldn't let a little thing like dying stop you from trying to drive me nuts. I shouldn't even be surprised."

This was fab and I SO loved Wilson's changing reactions! I only discovered this recently and read all the previous parts in one sitting. I'm glad I didn't have to wait too long for the last bit!

Agreed that this is definitely asking for sequels!

Wilson was rather tricky to write in that last scene; I mean, that's a lot to take in. I like that he read well.
Arg, sequels. I've an epilogue in mind, but I think that's it. I am opening the universe up to anybody else that wants to play in it, though. (hint, hint)
