Thanks. I'm sure it'll work out for me here eventually. Just have to keep my eyes open and be persistent.
*nods* if you've got the emotional intimacy, the sex is pretty much secondary at that point. Yes, nice icing on the cake, but also not strictly necessary to what makes the two people so perfect together.
No, LIghtman stalking Foster's husband didn't come across as remotely creepy or even inappropriate because it was so obviious that he was doing it out of love and worry rather than desire or jealousy, which made the whole thing just beautiful (if painful) to watch
Oh, if it had JUST been Amber, it wouldn't have pissed me off because, much as i liked her character (anyone that can compete with House on that level SHOULD be kept around, damn it) because her death at least advanced the plot. Kutner's was more or less a throw-away. House was ALREADY starting to doubt himself, so "how could i not have seen this coming?" simply fails to strike me as ample justification. Especially given the bait-and-switch with the implications about Taub's depression and previous suicide-attempt. I don't mind misdirection (it can be fun) but that was just stupid and unneccesary, imo. There was NOTHING in Kutner's characterization to suggest suicide. He was young, social, and obviously got a real kick out of life. That's beyond "not seeming depressed on the surface". I'm sorry, but me and my psych degree aren't buying that. It MIGHT have been justified if they'd pursued House's "he was actually murdered" theory past that episode, but they didn't so it was just cheap, pointless, and gratuitious. It also gave me a flashback I could have done without *shakes head*
Yeah, shiny picspam, yes? I may have written some M-rated Watson/Druitt after putting that together and actually LOOKING at the caps again *hums innocently* I mean if those guys WEREN'T in bed together at some point in the past, you know damned well they WANTED to be. It also makes sense to me on a historical level if you want my convluted justifications because i gave it a LOT of study before i decided i wasn't just imaging things (seriously "No Love Without Forgiveness" had almost 2 pages of author's notes, most supplying historical/literary justifcations for the idea of Sherlock Holmes/Jack the Ripper -- if you care, let me know and i'll copy/paste them for you)
