104 - I <3 you SO HARD for including Neverending Story and Transformers!!! :DD I find getting back in touch with the stuff I grew up on and maybe taking your prior love of it into fandom is a really enjoyable experience.

116 - I think we're going to see some tension between them next season, and obviously their relationship is never really going to be the same again. After something as big as the death of someone you love, everything changes. But I also think they'll mend. Right now, Wilson is completely wrought with grief and undoubtedly thinking clearly. He's going through the five stages of grief right now. We had denial throughout much of Wilson's Heart, and at the end, I think he's shifting to anger ("Why aren't you angry?!"). Anger at himself, anger at House, anger at the world, maybe even anger at Amber. That's why he's blaming House right now; and it doesn't help that House blames himself. (That was made clear in the coma sequence, where, if you go with the pattern set up in this and prior seasons, Amber was simply a manifestation in House's mind, and thus could only impart to him things that he thought.) They're going to go through a huge, agonizing blame-circle, but eventually they'll realize how stupid they're being. (I have my own theories as to how this will happen, specifically involving the spoiler for a roadtrip in S5...) But remember, there's 3 more stages in grief - we still need to get through bargaining and depression before finally reaching acceptance (and with Wilson's confirmed clinical depression, I have a feeling that won't be fun for him). But I have faith that things will turn out! They have to - the show would fall without the backbone of the House and Wilson interactions. And without Wilson, House himself falls apart. (LOL wow, sorry about the rant!)

120 - Oh man, Cloverfield... I love that movie to pieces!

161 - That is pure, epic AWESOME! :D I want to be that person, 10, 20, 40, 60 years from now, when I'm withered and old. I WILL STILL BE LOYAL TO MY FANDOMS! Kudos to your grandmother!

No, don't apologize. It's actually nice to know I'm not the only one who can rant forever about this whole situation that's surfaced with the death of Amber. :/ I'm willing to give Wilson time, of course. I mean, I know how hard that sort of thing can be. I just - it's just that I read in an interview that House is supposedly going to have to do "something big" for Wilson, and my first thought was, hasn't he done enough? The man risked his life (and nearly succeeded in sacrificing it) just to make Wilson happy. I just want Wilson to realize that. Eventually. You know what I mean?

If there's one thing I can do, it's rant! :)

I do get where you're coming from. Risking his life to try to save Amber was huge for House. A tiny part of me, however, keeps remembering that House wanted to do it anyway; he was the one who originally suggested it and was all gung-ho about it. I guess I have a bit less faith in House, but I think in a way it's warranted. Think of what he's done to - or rather, not done for - Wilson in the past. He's arguably had a huge part to play in all three of Wilson's previous marriages as well as (presumably) any intervening potential girlfriends. He couldn't bring himself to keep one small deal, to give one little speech, even after his friend literally gave up half his life (the other half being his friendship with House) to defend House. He refused to listen whenever Wilson hinted (or blatantly admitted) that he needed desperately to talk to him about things that were bothering him. He left him high and dry during the Tritter fiasco, stubborning his way through each and every humiliation Wilson suffered on his behalf simply because he didn't want to fess up to the crime he committed. This directly resulted in Wilson being alienated not only from House, but from Cuddy and the fellows as well, all of whom treated Wilson like the traitor throughout that incident. He lived in a hotel for god knows how long. After all of this, we find out he's had to resort to antidepressants, and even after House reveals this fact, he does next to nothing to help out. Season four again finds him recklessly risking his life for no reason whatsoever (jack knife in socket incident), once again putting his friend through the pain of worrying about whether or not he would die. Through all of this, we only see one truly honest apology - when House is in jail and Wilson comes to visit - which he then tries to renege on later.

So yeah, House risking his life like that was pretty significant, but I can hardly fault Wilson - after all the other shit House has put him through - for demanding a bit more. Especially now that Amber is dead.

Heh, these two are so fucked up, it's really ridiculous!

Re: 116

[callmejude.livejournal.com]

Oh, I'm in no way saying Wilson's at fault. The man gets so many props for putting up with House - I have no idea how he does it. I'm just saying that in Wilson's Heart, House seemed to go through some sort of major change for Wilson specifically. Risking his life wasn't all he did. He did several things that one could tell he diagreed with simply because Wilson asked for it (IE: freezing Amber's body and doing the blood cultures) also, one point that everyone seems to look over, but my jaw nearly hit the floor - he lied to make Wilson feel better.

Wilson: I thought if everything stopped, it'd be okay.
House: And it's gonna be.

I can't remember him ever saying anything like that before unless he was absolutely sure or had an agenda (and even when he is absolutely sure, he rarely goes through with the effort to placate anyone). He didn't know that Amber was going to be all right, and yet he said it was in an effort to make Wilson feel better.

I don't know. It's quite possible I'm reading far too much into this, I suppose. XD

Re: 116

[arwydd.livejournal.com]

I do agree with you on all points made. The exchange you quoted was, in my opinion, worth a million times more than House risking his life for Amber - because hey, he does that for normal patients anyway. But he never lies about the patient's status, or at least never in an altruistic manner.

Re: 116

[callmejude.livejournal.com]

I know, and I find it weird that not even house_wilson seems to find it important. Hell, even my mother got teary-eyed when those lines were said, and she despises House. (The character, not the show.)

Re: 116

[arwydd.livejournal.com]

Heh to be perfectly honest, I don't particularly care for House myself. He's a real douche 98% of the time; the other 2% is what keeps me from outright despising him. :) But at the same time, even though I don't like who he is, I love how he's written, so... it's all good!

And house_wilson has a tendency to focus on one or two things - which are usually the bad parts - and ignore a lot of the really good stuff. So it didn't surprise me when they glossed over that exchange!

Re: 116

[callmejude.livejournal.com]

Yeah, I get what you're saying. I mean, like I said, I'm way more protective than is probably healthy to be toward a fictional character, but he is a jackass, no way to get around that. XD (I still love everything about him, though. Haha)

I know! They seem so focused on only the depressing angles of the finale lately. It's a total downer, which I don't need at ALL, considering... :/
