"House" fic recs

[bironic]

For those of you who are so inclined, I dipped into some Wilson/Julie stories this morning (having hardly read any "House" fic and no W/J) and have a few recommendations. In the order in which I found them:

untitled by pocky_slash-- Wilson/Julie, House/Stacy, hint of House/Stacy/Wilson. An answer to the post-"Three Stories" question, Where was Wilson when House had his infarction?

Standing in the middle of the intensive care floor, watching Stacy Sheridan scream at James, she was beginning to wonder if maybe she should have gone home.


"an object in motion" by greensilver -- Wilson/Julie and Wilson/House during "Babies and Bathwater," Wilson's almost-resignation and the end of Vogler's reign of terror.

When James hangs up the phone he’s still trying to hold out, fighting to hang onto all the cynicism that a failed marriage and a pointless career could provide. House is still ultimately repressed and miserable, and James is still a divorcé on the make; nothing has really changed. But House is ecstatic and Julie is asleep, and by the time Chase's car pulls into the driveway, James is as happy as he can ever remember being.


"A Momentary Lapse of Reason" by otter -- Wilson/Julie and House/Wilson told in alternating present action and flashbacks (oddly, with the tenses switched); House watches Wilson meet, court, marry and split up with Julie, who in this story was House's physical therapist.

Cuddy's fingers tighten over his, and he wants to pull his hand away, but it's not entirely unlikely that he'll lose his balance and end up on his ass, and then Wilson will make some dry remark and insist on driving him home. And it's not that House would be particularly embarrassed about it -- he can handle a little humiliation now and then, for the right causes -- what's worse is that he *wants* it, wants Wilson to walk out of his own wedding, wants Wilson to prove that House is more important.


"Full Circle (Or, Julie Wilson Attempts Growing Up)" by pennycase -- Wilson/Julie, House/Wilson and a hint of Julie/House. A marriage gone from fresh to sour, and a Brokeback-style discovery. The end is off but the rest has some fine moments.

"I was going to say, you have something that makes James happy. But I think that told me everything I need to know."
