Claim: House, general series
Title: Tracking Time
Author: Namaste
Characters: House, Wilson, Stacy
Prompt: 8.Friendship
Rating: PG
Length: Epic (by House fandom standards, anyway)
Brief summary: For all of you fans of "just because they're good friends doesn't mean they're shagging", this is the fic for you- or nearly anyone else, for that matter. It's long, it's note-perfect, it's the backstory of "this stupid, screwed-up friendship". It has humor, a bit of angst, and dialogue that could well have been written for the show.

Author: Milkshake Butterfly
Characters: House/Wilson, OFC
Prompt: 21.Epiphany
Rating: R
Length: long
Brief summary: I had a long debate over which prompt to rec this under, because it suits several, and finally settled for "epiphany" because it has the best "Gosh, I think I'm attracted to (male character) epiphany I've ever read in any fandom. It's sweet, smart, and hilarious- you'll be snickering over the Velocibreasts for days, and may never be able to eat chocolate cake with a straight face again.
"Especially since he couldn't seem to stop thinking about it, and now that they were eating the conversation had tapered off a bit so he didn't even have the distraction of mutual Yankees-loathing. The idea that he might not be purely heterosexual should have bothered him more, only as far as he could tell, trying it on for size, it didn't actually change much of anything, except possibly to explain why he'd always had a weakness for musicals. He wasn't gay, he just wasn't totally straight, so the net lifestyle change he had to seriously contemplate here was... nothing, unless he wanted it to be. Unless he decided to act on those less-than-straight thoughts.
Which was the problem, Wilson had to admit, because he'd just woken up to the fact he'd been flirting with his best friend for years. That was way more terrifying than realizing maybe he had some bisexual tendencies--after all, he knew about Kinsey's studies, so it wasn't like the idea of that wasn't possible."
