Summary
Many journals from all over the world and of varying degrees of credibility published studies on Hanahaki Disease. A nearly mythical condition; flowers taking root in your lungs, slowly suffocating you as you cough up their dainty little petals. It was, supposedly, a result of bottling up one's feelings or of them not being returned; some others claimed that there was a deeper meaning behind them, that the flowers were meant to convey the message to the poor bastard that contracted them. The actual cause of it remained unknown.
House thought it was nothing more than mass hysteria. Or some strange somatic ailment manifesting physically.
Until he didn't.
He saw a man - still bright and smiling, soft with peach fuzz and the faded scent of baby powder clinging to his skin - throw a bottle through a window at some bougie doctor party.
He bailed the man out of jail. They went to get a midnight snack. They laughed and joked as though they've known each other their whole lives; as though the Universe shifted to bring them together.
House started coughing up petals the second he stepped through his front door, giddy and drunk and alive like he never felt before.Bookmarked by LookingforStrange

Summary
When House's pipes break in his apartment in early season 5, leaving him with no running water and no ability to shower, Wilson is recruited by the ducklings to make House shower because he smells distractingly bad. But Wilson doesn't smell anything bad. Actually, Wilson thinks House smells really good. Which could mean nothing.
OR: Wilson discovers boysmell and has a midlife sexuality crisis about it.

Summary
""You've thought of all this.”
His eyes search for House’s. Of course he has thought of it. He hasn’t quite reached a conclusion yet, but he sees that Wilson is happy with Amber and that this time, it is different than with all his ex-wives. He knows Wilson finally has a true chance to get his dream of a perfect white picket fence family, and as much as he is a dick, he also knows that trying to stop this will most likely end with House losing him as a friend completely.
He doesn’t need to look at Wilson to know that he understood what House was trying to say. He knows Wilson can see through this facade and recognise the sacrifices he is making."
Or: What if things had gone a little differently in House's Head/Wilson's Heart?

Summary
"House has read every paper on it from early publications in 100-year-old books, to recent things in Nature and other prestigious journals. It is understood that humans in love have a physical manifestation of that, though the “love organ” or whatever that is has never been found. The only time it is found is when it’s necrotic, infected, and dying from the flowers and plants taking root in there. It’s not in healthy individual lungs, so no one knows where it hides if it’s there at all. Secondly, not all unrequited love or a perception of unrequited love triggers Hanahaki. Psychiatric journals publish every day conflicting evidence on what the psychological trigger is. It’s really hard to say, and then there’s the groups of people who talk about destiny, fate, and soulmates and it gets a thousand times more convoluted.
A take on House MD in which Gregory House has had a chronic form of Hanahaki Disease for 18 years that is now going into relapse while he lives with Wilson in the Condo (set during season 6-ish).

Summary
Despite all of the insanity around him, Steve can feel only one thing.
The sensation of something - someone - behind him, on the ground, where they’re huddled together.
There’s something under the truck, he thinks. Oh god, there’s something here. I was right, and I didn’t check.
Something followed us out.—
Life after Vecna's death is everything that Steve expected it would be: new job, new house, new beginnings.
He’s fine, honestly.
Everything is fine - other than the fact that his new home in Forest Hills feels under constant watch from something in the shadows, he keeps finding animal corpses drained of blood around town, he can’t hold a relationship down to save himself, Dustin keeps leaving him increasingly concerning cryptic phone messages… and there’s some sort of sinister entity occupying the woods near the Creel House.
So, fine. Totally.Series
