cw: suicidal ideation

[armoured]

[There's a tightness to his voice that says House is getting to him, but he's not letting it overwhelm him.]

I know you're just trying to drive me away because you're an idiot who doesn't want help, well... tough. I'm sorry, I know it's not ideal for either of us, but I still care about you enough to not just leave you alone and let you kill yourself.

or maybe
now stay with me, lelly
maybe i'm terrified of you
and less contact is better for my mental health overall
especially when i'll probably have nightmares of you tonight

if you're so worried, i'm on meds
happy?
i haven't wanted or tried to kill myself on them

[That really does get to him, it chips away at a part of him to think that anyone could be scared of him. He can hardly blame House, though, can he?]

I'm sorry if you're scared, but I'm nowhere near you and I can't hurt you over the tablets. If this makes you hate me more, then so be it, but nothing you say is going to drive me away from this.

[House is just hanging up at this point. God, why are you so persistent, Al???]

[armoured]

[Guess who's calling right back?]

I told you that wasn't going to work.

[And if House doesn't answer this time, then Al will call back the next day and the next day and the next day.]

[rubikscomplex]

Do you have literally nothing better to do?

[armoured]

No.

[He sounds almost determinedly cheerful.]

Guess you're just going to have to accept having me around after all, huh?

[rubikscomplex]

are you going to accept that i have other things to do?

[armoured]

No.

[Sorry, House, this isn't just going away.]

I won't keep you long each day, I'm sure you have time for that.

[rubikscomplex]

you've taken too much of my time today

[He hangs up again. GO AWAY.]

[armoured]

Speak to you tomorrow, Dr. House!

[And he'll leave it at that... FOR TODAY.]
