Twenty-One Word Salute to Sick!Wilson

[barefootpuddles.livejournal.com]

Last year we had a very successful 6 word challenge. This year we are giving a bit more leeway, you have 21 words to tell a story. It's not as hard as it sounds, just let the reader fill in what they will.

Here are a few examples to get you started. Please post your stories in the comments.

Story one:

Wilson leaned against House. They only ever touched when they were drunk. House sighed, at least alcohol was cheaper than hookers.

Story two:

Don’t touch.
Come on.
Get away, House!
It’ll get infected.
I’ll do it myself.
I can remove splinters.
Not with pliers!

Wilson gingerly positioned the ice pack against the bridge of his nose and sighed. Air hockey was, apparently, a contact sport.

Wilson groans, slumped over the toilet - his brand new porcelain home. Never trust House to check the expiration date on food.

I love your story one. It makes my heart ache a little to read, but it's lovely.

And story two is amusing. House coming at anyone with pliers sounds terrifying. ;)

Wilson glared, eye covered by an ice pack.

House smirked. "That's what you get for actually playing racquetball with Taub."

Men never cry. Wilson’s father taught him that. Several times. Jimmy realized he didn't feel like crying whilst caring for somebody.

House laughed at first. Wilson swatting at invisible insects. Then he grabbed a razor…

Hospitalization, observation, diagnosis.

“I’m sorry; it’s Parkinson’s”

House finds Wilson, trembling, on his back, blinking owlishly at the creature on his chest.

“It’s a mouse. On a Jew.”

*sorry*

“Potart and Nutella sandwiches? You eat like a stoner."

“That’s because you knocked me up*!” Wilson grumbled, then stormed off teary-eyed.


*note to all my friends in the UK and certain parts of Europe: You probably already know this but in America Knocked up/ to knock someone up is slang for getting that person pregnant.

"I was being helpful."

"I realize that."

"You said you wanted --"

"The floor waxed. Yes. Help me up."

"Hey, cripple here!"

As sharp claws raked Wilson's arm he crossed 'lion-taming' off his list of possible future careers. Oncology was easier than this.
