Hydrotherapy by Michelle ChristianHouse/Wilson slashHouse/Wilson and a hot tub - what more could you want? Well how about brilliant characterisation and the sort of story that leaves you with a slight warm and fuzzy glow? Huge fun.And Lo He Has Not Fallen But Leapt by GenaHouse/Wilson friendship AUOdd one this which has Wilson as an angel coming to guide a dying post infarction House to heaven. Normally I steer well clear of AU stories but this one is clever, sweet and works the alternate reality meeting into the universe of the show very well. Pathogenesis and Intervention by ShalottHouse/Wilson slashHouse/Wlson slash set against the background of a smallpox epidimic. The medical elements are dealt with impressively and House/Wilson are as ever perfectly characterised by this talented author. Reads like a typical House episode - if it were broadcast on HBO!Under His Skin by CryptictacHouse/Wilson slashShort and very sad pwp written from Wilson's point of view which has Wilson and House involved in a physical but empty relationship. Whilst I normally love happy endings I can somehow see this take on their relationship as far more realistic than the average House/Wilson fluff fest.Recklessness and Water by Hannah R. OrloveHouse/Wilson slash (mild)Beautifully written, almost ethereal story told entirely from Wilson's point of view. Reflective, haunting and highly recommended.Sleeping Beauty by Naja MelanoleucaGen Chase centricLike the previously recommended The Quality of Mercy Sleeping Beauty is another Chase centric story dealing with the slow process of repairing House and Chase's friendship following the Vogler incident. A multi chapter story this is quite a slog but well worth sticking with. Chase is brilliantly and compellingly portrayed and his background fleshed out in a way which you know it never will be on the show. Cameron, Foreman and Wilson all come across very well and House (for the most part) remains in character - no easy feat in a story this long. There are nitpicks - the original female character grates as all OFC's invariably do - she's also far too heavily featured in the later chapters for my liking and slows the pace of the story, Chase's vernacular seems to be all over the place (if the author is indeed an Aussie I will apologise unreservedly but as it is I felt that some of the slang was out of place) and I never saw Rowan Chase as any where near as brutally cold as he is portrayed here (although that could be my love of Patrick Bachau talking). Still an enjoyable story which is recommended reading if you are a big Chase fan.Transposition by Pocky SlashWilson/Chase, Wilson/Foreman, Wilson/Cameron, Wilson/Stacy, ultimately House/WilsonLooking at the list of pairings above you could easily come to the conclusion not to touch this story with a ten foot barge pole but that would be a mistake. The pairings are unusual but as is always the case in Wilson's life all roads lead to House. Very well written and featuring a Stacy who is far more engaging and warm than the character on the show this is actually a quite moving look into Wilson's very troubled psyche.
