a limp down memory lane

[flywoman]

I've been catching up on the second season of Castle, and I just saw an episode that featured Marc Blucas (Riley Finn on Buffy) and Anne Dudek (Amber!!!!) as a divorced couple about to get a second chance at making things work because Marc's character has lost his memory and with it the fifteen years of emotional baggage they'd accumulated. Aside from eliciting a squee of recognition, this made me think of the Buffy episode "Tabula Rasa" and the interesting dynamics that occur when the regulars all find themselves in a room together with no memories of their established relationships.

So now I'm thinking that, in addition to "House M.D. the Musical," I'd enjoy seeing a similar exploration of the effects of amnesia on our favorite show, and particularly with regard to House himself. Who would he be if he still had his brilliance and musical/linguistic talents and eidetic memory, but he couldn't remember his childhood or the infarction or his previous interactions with his colleagues? Any thoughts? Has anyone read a really good fanfictional take on this?
