PROMPTS FOR THE SICK
@rawbutprecious: "Why are you here?" (from Alvie)
Today marks six months since they last spoke, if what House did could even be considered speaking: leaving a note on the nightstand of Alvie's hospital bed, apologizing for what happened at the abandoned warehouse. Still, the other man remains one of the few who knows House is still alive, an "honor" not bestowed upon many.
It still doesn't excuse House from breaking into the younger man's apartment, but who would have expected him to do it any other way?
Sitting in the dark on the couch, he reminisces about his old apartment, now occupied by new tenants who would never know all the crazy stuff that happened there (not that he wants to return to a place where all walls scream his dead best friend's name).
That's why he likes Alvie's apartment: it feels fresh, untainted by him.
"Hello, Alvie."
House looks over his shoulder at him, tapping his cane on the floor.
"Long time no see."
