114 Diagnosis

[vicodincrutch]

Stop trying to tote your wares. Make the time mean something. I don't want to see the contrived personality you think would be most presentable because chances are, it's false and disgusting. Think of a twinkie. Delicious, zero substance and once you know what's in it for real only the brave and stupid charge onward. I am brave, but I am not that stupid.

I can also see that this won't go anywhere if you're up for that kind of a game. You won't win.

[She takes a seat in front of him]

I think that's cynicism, Doctor.

[eagleofautozam.livejournal.com]

Have you been approached by a lot of… ‘Twinkies’… today?


[Yes, sorry, a comment like that needs to be teased. ]

[And sliding into the chair across from him is this lovely lady that he cares so much about, right?]

Shit. I'm gonna need to be drunk for this.

[nosferotofu.livejournal.com]

I-



I didn't mean to sit here.

[adamantined]

So you aren't looking for someone who could survive a nuclear war. [Compelled to sit, Claire does so, though not without a sour twist to her mouth. The grocery bags she's got in tow settle on the floor next to her.] Well that's good to know.

[Chase slides into the chair opposite House not actually sighing, but with a clear expression that he'd like to.]

Indian or Thai?

[action]

[vicodincrutch.livejournal.com]

[Oh. Hello. That's what his eyes say, his jaw remains slack.]

Is it cynicism if I believe it with all my heart?

[action]

[synanthrope]

Well, I've never been the best judge.

[vicodincrutch.livejournal.com]

Today? Yes. In my life time? Oh yes.

[Lovely la---oh. It's Angela.]

What kind?

[vicodincrutch.livejournal.com]

That's a lousy line.

[I bet he thinks that it works. House is in the middle of a bag of chips. No, no garlic. Onion dip actually.]

[vicodincrutch.livejournal.com]

Nope. I want them to fry with me. Though the prospect of being immortalized is tempting.

[Bags, huh? Nosy man that he is, House is eying the contents.]

action ][

[vicodincrutch.livejournal.com]

Depends on what meal.

[Sigh all you want. Now this is getting interesting.]

Indian for the curry.

action;

[thenormalsquint]

Whatever's hardest.

[And no, that is not an euphemism.]

[dr_conscience]

[Oh, good. He's been compelled to sit at a lot of tables today, but he's certain none of them will compare to this. Not that he can do anything about it. He is compelled to sit down and have the kind of friendly conversation he would on any first date, but he's not so badly cursed that he's not aware of the situation, or of who he's dealing with at any given time.]

Why, Greg. Fancy meeting you here.

[That should be a snide comment. It's... not a snide comment, though. Damnit.]

[action]

[vicodincrutch.livejournal.com]

Honest.

[That's attractive, except that means that there are better truths to conceal.]

That's out of the norm. So what are you going to tell me? You're not cynical.

[If his memory serves him right.]

[action]

[synanthrope]

I don't know. What answer are you looking for?

action;

[vicodincrutch.livejournal.com]

To say? I'm not mixing. Or else you might get something special.

[Interpret that as you will, Angela. Have a wink to go with that.]

You're cheery. No doubt anticipating the holiday.

action ]

[vicodincrutch.livejournal.com]

[Another--? Humph. Well. Whatever. It's only Wilson.]

Jimmy. I was about to say the same. What brings you to--[The table? We're not talking about that table. Because hellooo, they're friends. And this is a curse that has brought dates but.

Oh.

No way, man.]

action;

[thenormalsquint]

[Did House just wink at her? Nah, he just has something in his eye. That's all.]

Not really. I don't need a particular day to love myself. I do that everyday. You seem cheery yourself.

[action]

[vicodincrutch.livejournal.com]

Not exactly sure. You're not like other people. Really you don't need to say much. If you position your arms just so in that top you're wearing words aren't necessary.

[vicodincrutch.livejournal.com]

[There has to be something in his eye.]

It's a healthy practice. Beware of carpal tunnel.

[He'll take a good long sip of his drink thanks.]

Do I?

[action]

[synanthrope]

You've seen my breasts before.

action;

[thenormalsquint]

No risk of carpal tunnel when you use assisting devices.

[What? What did Angela just say? These are things she would never speak of in front of this piss-poor excuse of a human being.]

Mmhmm. You're not insulting the entire city.

[adamantined]

You and the word 'immortal' should never exist in the same sentence together.

[On a list of people she wouldn't mind spending eternity with...

Claire notices him eying the bags.]

Don't worry, they're not for you.
