If I knew this was gonna turn into 'girl talk,' I wouldn't've gotten up.
[In spite of the snap, House stays where he is for the moment. He can tell it's bothering Will, so he'll suffer it for a short spell, at least.]
The guy's suicidal. I mean, who isn't here? He sucks at not actually showing it, though. And he gets attached. [To admit? Not to admit?] He took care of me when I thought I was a kid. Before you got here, like right before, I died. I was ten again, almost eleven. Rhys, Carsen, and Strange took care of me. It happened in the middle of detoxing.
[House rubs a thumb across his brow and sighs.]
Then we go the other way with that alternate reality bullshit. I thought I'd been here two years, maybe more. Long time to go without some tail... he had a tail. There was a hot bath. [He shifts uncomfortably, not sure if he really wants to tell Will this, but it's not like he's been able to talk to anyone else about it. Like hell is he telling Wilson he slept with another guy, even in a fake memory. The flak he'd get for all the gay jokes he's made over the years.] You'd think a guy like that'd know how to deal with a one-night stand. Especially when it wasn't even real.
