and apparently he's more of a whiner than i thought
i told him he doesn't need to worry about it
so tell him to stop asking people where i am

[redrooms]

Is this going to be an issue in the future, or does the fact that I'm contacting you need explanation?

[rubikscomplex]

is this where you threaten to destroy me if i touch him again?

[redrooms]

Always with the cliches, House. You won't touch him.

[rubikscomplex]

well, no
i'm pretty much trying to avoid the guy with a giant metal fist who totally murdered a couple of people
that's just me, though

he makes himself interesting or i need something i can't get another way
i might talk to him again
but i'll check other options first

[You don't control him, Nat. He is a wild stallion!]

[redrooms]

Do you really think that's a good idea? You're an intelligent man.

[rubikscomplex]

other options first is what continues to make me intelligent
if you haven't heard, though
i'm also an idiot
so

[redrooms]

That's unfortunate. I'll make it clear, then. You won't be using him for anything, even if you have no other option, and you won't blackmail him. Understood?

[rubikscomplex]

let's cut to the chase
are you planning to tell me you'll murder me
or post links to shame me to death?
or go after the people you think i care about?

those are the standard ones

[redrooms]

You shame yourself enough. Think of this as a friendly warning.

[She's not going to hurt him or anyone he cares about, but hey. Ambiguity.]

[rubikscomplex]

uh huh
so how much of a morally gray hero are you?
triple-agent levels?
i'm pretty sure you're the kind who spies on her own team
why?
just in case
so you've still got the inclination to be a baddy
but you try to be good

so, i'll call your bluff
might not even come up
guess we'll see where you fall if it does

[redrooms]

I'm sure it won't. Should I bring this up to Dr. Wilson? For a coworker, you certainly seemed interested in making sure Alfie Solomons took a liking to him.
Trying to foster a flourishing Jewish community here, or are you trying to make sure Solomons protects him?

[rubikscomplex]

wilson's annoying
solomons is annoying
they deserve to be annoying at each other
solomons will leave me alone if he has another doctor
wilson will leave me alone if he has a project

[redrooms]

It shouldn't take too much to encourage him to make you his project, then, should it?

[rubikscomplex]

you're threatening to sic someone annoying on me if i blackmail nazi old yeller?

i think i can deal with that level of retribution

[redrooms]

Ties from home are important, I think even to someone like you.
But like you said, it might not ever come up.

[rubikscomplex]

i'll be sure to tell that to the head of radiology if she turns up
or maybe braxton running general surgery
we consult with him on most of our cases
