[QUOTE=Eleanor of Aquitaine] Now, it seems like he could get rid of the pain by removing the leg, so he must really be attached to it. That’s some kind of stubborn, considering that he is willing to resort to dangerous (the experimental induced-coma treatment) and unethical (stealing a nerve biopsy from a kid) means to get rid of the pain. [/QUOTE] Personally speaking, I would choose crippling pain over removing a leg. Actually, I think I might choose death over removing a finger (and yes, I know that’s stupid). Then again, I have kind of a phobia about missing body parts. ---

[QUOTE=Apricot] I found that last scene very amusing, especially since Cameron and Chase are engaged IRL. [http://www.celebspin.com/jennifer-morrison-and-actor-jesse-spencer-are-engaged/](http://www.celebspin.com/jennifer-morrison-and-actor-jesse-spencer-are-engaged/) Let’s see if they have on screen chemistry! [/QUOTE] They haven’t this far into the series, why should they start now? I was half expecting Chase to say, “yeah, I’ll do you as soon as you get rid of that stupid Holly Hobbie haircut.” ---

1. I think my mind would snap if I was awake on the operating table and saw that Thing being pulled out of my belly. 2. Danger Will Robinson! Too much obvious soap opera! House and Cuddy, Foreman and blonde nurse, Cameron and Chase. I don’t mind soap opera as a secondary thing to the medical part, but scenes like that on their own?! Don’t take it too far, writers. 3. For one brief moment I thought Cuddy was eating dinner with Tritter. :eek: ---

I just want to know why the heck they chopped out the worm, when the normal treatment, AFAIK, is medication. Maybe it was just too big? I hope they don’t go too far into the House/Cuddy stuff. I don’t want a soap opera atmosphere! ---

You’re welcome! But really, let’s look at the facts: 1. Wilson and House have more history. 2. They have the yin/yang thing going. In other words, Wilson completes House, and vice versa. 3. They have undeniable chemistry. 4. Their bond has been tested, and is still intact. 5. It would be an interesting angle if House’s father abused him because of his son’s burgeoning tendencies, resulting in a marriage to please his father. 6. As **featherlou** pointed out, there’s the whole masochistic aspect. Hey, it works in some relationships. 7. A Wilson/House love scene would be the greatest thing ever. ---

I’m actually picturing it. It’s no Jack and Ennis, mind you, but not bad, not bad at all. (No, I’m not going to mah bunk. Juveniles.) ---

Actually, that would tie into House’s addiction problems. House: (intense, gravelly look at Wilson) I wish I knew how to quit you. I’d better stop before I go looking for slashfic. ---

Hmm. Wilson/House slashfic. Okay, that search took one click. Ain’t the internet great? 😃 ---

Damn, y’all, I hadn’t thought about Wilson/House slash. (My mind doesn’t really work that way.) But I keep dreaming about House. And I wake up going “WTF?” He’s an _asshole_. ---

He is quite attractive when he keeps his mouth shut. ---

😛 His eyes were just as striking a blue in my dream. We were standing in the rain outside the hospital, very near where the feud with the wheelchair doc took place. Suck on that! 😃 ---

When I shovel snow I find myself daydreaming about being on CSI:Miami. Horatio and crew find my frozen body face down in the snow next to a shovel and say inane things about it. “Speeeeed? What does that shovel tell you about the victim?” Your dream is nicer 😃 And I call dibs on Chase.
