#forehouse

something I really love about all the moments where house will just randomly praise foreman in an oddly sincere way is how confused foreman looks after. because like. he’s not unused to praise, we know marty hamilton used to, but you know what he isn’t used to? having it mean something. having it come from a doctor like house who is so often so dismissive, which means that when he actually gets praised he knows that he must actually deserve it which ridiculously disorientates foreman and his imposter syndrome and his insecurities. and i think for all we know that house likes foreman best, i think he also knows that maybe foreman needs a little more encouragement than the others to not lose his nerve. this is a teaching hospital after all and i think that maybe this is a little under discussed part of him trying to teach foreman to stay confident. also my forehouse so yk

why does nobody ever talk about the fact that house actually genuinely saw/hallucinated(?) foreman in 4x02 the right stuff. like that's so insane. house is so insane about foreman he actually saw the guy even tho he wasn't actually there

if the house fandom wasnt so racist we'd talk about foreman and his conflicted feelings with house and house's playfulness with him and wilson telling him "he wants you. you know he wants you, and you know he can make you good."

it's funny how average hilson interaction in s1-2 can be boiled down to "look at how house looked at him! how wilson caressed his broken hand!" while average forehouse interaction is the most gutting show of trust and dependancy and respect you would ever expect from 2000s tv-show
