Should I add you probably resent your father and want to have sexual relations with your mother to accept that title better? Though, let's be honest, one of those we already know to be true.
So because you are so lovely abrasive, we should assume a week. Who holds your leash at present?
I had no intention to muzzle him at the time, but he was going to kill me. It was a last resort. What's the likelihood of infection in this environment?
[House is grateful Pierce moves on from the first question quickly. It means he doesn't have to answer it.]
like i'm telling you
infection likelihood is minimal with the radiation levels around here most things are probably dead the nanomachines also seem to fight off most things minus mn poisoning symptoms frostbite and gangrene are the most likely things you'll be dealing with
[Not really, anymore, after Sherlock's order... and Alfie still has him locked in. But he doesn't want to play this guessing game. Pierce might just order him, anyway.]
you owe me at least the cost of your insurance copay for it
[House hangs up, wondering what the hell Pierce is up to. This has to be some kind of reverse psychology bullshit with him not really taking much advantage of House's current condition. He can fret over it while wondering what to do about the situation with Bucky, at least.]

That's the impression that I have of them currently. I will take precautions against both. Thank you for your expert opinion on the matter.

Fair enough. I'll send it along with my associate right now.

and go screw yourself

Now, I wonder about the physical stretch that would be...

i'll use everyone's full name from now on so you don't get confused, alexander pierce
i really don't want to think about you actually doing it
so thanks for the nightmares

You're very welcome, Doctor. So how did you get around that order? I assume the clarification allowed you to get around the literal of it.

you assume correctly

At least you are well in hand now.
[Why yes, he made that pun just for you.]

[Under most circumstances, he would think it was funny. Under these? Not so much.]
have you gotten what you want, yet?
i can't actually hang up on you
text;
Ah yes, you can't actually make a decision. Do hang up, Doctor House. We will no doubt find time to text again.
