Because
me_likee strongly insisted, here are 2 new drabbles:
This first one came about when I was talking to
michelleann68 about the different ways that House and Wilson would likely kiss on the show. This popped into my head and I had to run and write it down:
DareHouse walked into the conference room to find Chase staring at a crossword. He plopped himself down at his desk. “Chase, make me coffee.”
“Bite me.”
“I bet you can’t beat your old record.”
“You’re right. Can’t.” He mumbled around the pencil.
“Dare you to try.”
“Dare you to kiss Wilson,” he shot back, not looking up.
House grabbed his phone, speed-dialing one. “Emergency!”
Wilson hurried in seconds later. “What...” As he stood before House, he found himself yanked forward, a tongue in his mouth.
“I never lose a dare.”
Without a word, Chase got up to make the coffee.

This second one--I was driving to work and a lyric caught my attention. I almost ran off the side of the road in an attempt to scribble it down on a piece of paper (I really need to attach a sticky pad to the steering wheel).
Don’t fear the ReaperWilson is surrounded by death; it’s all around him. Even when not at work, it lingers, like an unpleasant aroma in a cramped elevator. There’s no escaping. Yet still he has no fear, like an invincible child. Three divorces and over a decade of unexpressed love—failure is far worse than death.
No. James Wilson does not fear death, not when he sees the truck run a red light. Not even when he wakes up to find House crying beside his bed...
So when he slowly closes his tired eyes and the crying turns into gasping sobs, he is unafraid.
