I waited until now because I hadn't seen 7.12 yet. The episode wasn't bad, but this is way better.
"“I wasn’t talking about Sam,” Chase said, raising his eyebrows significantly.
“Then… who…“
The door to his room slid open. “Jimmy!” "
And this was a friendship fic? :-) you definitely have interesting subtext there. But you are right, in the sense it completely fits the canon in that every person's behavious is consistent with friendship. Still, I want to produce my exhibit number 2:
"You’ve only had attention to spare… for two things lately. Mysterious ailments… and the person who’s having sex with you.”
House cocked his head. “And you decided on the first approach? Way to go.”
Finally, I loved the final sentence. I wouldn't be opposed to a continuation to see what House had in mind when writing "I'll make it up to you". I even got out my old fashioned paper dictionary to make sure there wasn't a meaning of "make up" I was unaware of.
no subject
