just finished no reason (2x24) in my house rewatch and. it’s actually fucking incomprehensible how much gregory house loves lisa cuddy. the fact that this episode is the first to mark his many hallucinations — and he outright asks one of the biggest questions of the entire show, “how do you know what’s real?” — sets a precedent for his subconscious feelings toward cuddy. from the moment he first ‘wakes up’ in his hallucination the camera is focused on his patient wristband with cuddy’s name printed on it in clear view, so it’s assumed she’s his attending (just as she’d been in “three stories” (1x21)). as the episode goes on, house soon realizes that cuddy was the one to suggest treating him with ketamine, which he attributes to simultaneously healing his leg and damaging his brain. and this is the ongoing personal struggle for house — the battle between the mind and body / thoughts and feelings / the abstract and concrete. and, as moriarty points out, how house determines and appraises the all important “truth.” so cuddy, in house’s subconscious, represents both his struggle and his salvation. enraged, scared, and hurt by her decision, house accuses cuddy of messing with his mind, something he has always kept in pride of place (compare & contrast with the scene in recession proof (7x14) where house tells cuddy that loving her makes him a worse doctor but that this is worth it to him). cuddy and wilson, however, point out that their intentions were good, an argument that comes full circle when moriarty challenges house’s belief about “measurable truths” by insisting that “good intentions” and “what’s in your heart” also matter. it’s in this moment that house understands he’s been seeing moriarty’s late wife, and is inspired to apologize for telling her a “measurable truth” that only led her to suicide. ultimately, it’s seeing the inherent value of a person’s intention that gives house the awareness that he may be hallucinating. so, once conscious, it’s not a surprise that house immediately asks for cuddy to put him in a ketamine-induced coma. 1) he’s clearly been thinking about it all episode, and 2) his subconscious acknowledges cuddy as someone he can completely trust. and really it’s not lost on me that house’s hallucinations starts after cuddy has decided to give him ketamine. he operates under the assumption that cuddy has a position of authority over his healthcare, that she uses that authority without hesitation, and that she does so with his best interests in mind; his fate is literally in her hands. and though this is frightening, namely for the utter lack of control he’s left with in the situation, she’s right for having done it !! and he knows that !! house knows cuddy does the right thing, even when it’s scary, maybe especially because it’s scary. she does the right thing because it not only makes medical sense but because it’s the caring thing to do !! it has the potential to end his pain !! it gives him hope !! it inspires him to do the hopeful thing too !! literally, at the very first opportunity he does what his hallucination of her did, and he asks her to do it !! because gregory house holds lisa cuddy in such high esteem that she not only represents power, humanity, sacrifice, and deliverance, but most importantly: hope and integrity

this will appeal to >0.0002% of the masses but eva stratt and ryland grace are a space au fic of house/cuddy For Me. dictator of princeton plainsboro teaching hospital dr. lisa cuddy headhunts an absolute loser cursed with unparalleled genius to ensure the most positive outcome she thinks she can humanly achieve meanwhile he just wants to do science and wear funky t-shirts. he knows nobody in the world could ever do it like her, too, and everybody assumes they’re fucking. she incapacitates him and (launches him into space) chainsaws his leg for the greater good (including his own). so, naturally, he resents her forever. they’re best friends anyway.

wait, not done. i think that people who don’t get that stratt and grace would actually remain obsessed with each other until they both die (and then still in the great beyond. shoutout catholic eva stratt) have never been exposed to toxic het ships of a shakespearean nature before. house and cuddy were genuinely so fucking weird about each other that at age 12 i was like, “okay, i get it. love is the centre of all things and therefore all evil and cruelty spawns from there too.” and this is also why i never felt greater representation in media than when eva stratt said, “i don’t care about morality.” bc she cares about love, actually. and that’s the centre. it’s always been

Eva Stratt does NOT need a redemption arc. Eva Stratt did EVERYTHING WRONG so that no-one else would have to. Her hands are permanently stained with blood so humanity gets to keep on living.

"the most unrealistic thing about project hail mary is that a woman is in charge" WRONG look up the glass cliff. women are much more likely to be promoted to positions of power when things are going poorly and people need a woman to blame. she refers to herself as the "world's whipping boy." the person put in the position to have to commit ecological and humanitarian crimes of that scale in order to save the earth would only ever be a woman.

There’s a catastrophic female loneliness epidemic happening rn but nobody gaf bc women aren’t going out and hurting people about it we just betray and destroy ourselves for nothing

the year is 2035. the new beauty standard is for women to cut their ears off, as ears are a masculine trait which make the face look too big and hearing isnt necessary as it doesnt align with being demure. evil feminists say perhaps this is unnecessary and ears are natural. women are agressively proclaiming they are cutting their ears off due to sensory issues

who up wasting their only shot at life through complete and utter inaction
