Title: West of the Moon
Author: srsly_yes
Pairing: House/Wilson
Rating: R-
Word Count: ~1800
Warning: Wilson!angst. Due to the time period, Wilson indulges in political incorrectness. House and Wilson are approximately the age they first met in canon. Romantic 30s style deathfic = v gentle.
Disclaimer: [H]ouse isn’t mine and never will be. Historical and medical facts were constructed from spandex. It supports and shapes the story where necessary.
A/N: Loosely based on One Way Passage, 1932. Like the Hollywood films of that era, the story isn’t a realistic depiction of the period. Not part of the Redux series.
Beta: The eternally awesome hwshipper. Many thanks to all my friends who encouraged me to finish this. A special thank you to christikat for permission to use her manip icon.
Summary: Between two world wars and two continents, House and Wilson meet by chance. Will they make the most of their fateful encounter?

Previous: Prologue A, Prologue B, Part 1, Part 2, Part 3, Part 4, Part 5, Part 6.

(Part 7: Richard stared at his cigarette, avoiding eye contact. “People are beginning to talk.”)
