My thinky post will also be tl;dr and somewhat weepy, because I keep stopping and rewatching the Cuddy scenes in the episode. Meanwhile, why not have a shallow squee post to cheer me up?

I've wanted House and Cuddy to kiss from, like, the Pilot. Going over my past entries, I wrote this in my first House-related post: saw House. Hugh Laurie is disturbingly hot. I don't generally enjoy medical shows (because of the very annoying patient-doctor interactions. you know, the parts were the patient lectures the doctor and gives him Will to Live etc. there was some of it in this ep as well), but considering how much time I spent today thinking about people I'd ship House with (Wilson. because they are so married. Cuddy. the snark. *and* she's his boss) and laughing over lines like "Oxygen is so important during those pre-pubescent years, don't you think?", I'll probably watch some more of this show. Second one: But the show is funny. House and Cuddy are teh awesome, House and Wilson are married, and everyone is v. pretty, so I'm still watching. I was clearly showing my principle interests in the show already, even as a babyfan. I'd kind of envisioned that if ever the ship happened outside our fantasies it would be something flirty and fun. And instead we got desperate and pathetic and awkward, and I'm not complaining because it was AWESOME. House is a foot taller than she is, and she's distraught and House is a horrible person to take advantage of her vulnerability and Cuddy should've kneed him in the balls instead of kissing back. And of course they're terribly out of practice, because the last time House kissed a real person was... Cameron. And the last time Cuddy kissed a real person was Don.

AND! I love that Cuddy is wearing that BIG sweater and her hand is kinda caught in it and House looks stupid with his nose bumping against hers, and even STUPIDER as he turns and FLEES because he has NO IDEA what he just did. And Cuddy looks stunned and a little horrified, poor dear.

There was CONFRONTATION! OVER FINDING JUDAS! Which I've waited for only for two seasons! And Angry!Cuddy, GAH.

OH. And there was lingering! Mmmph.

...

There. I've used up my shipper quota for the day. I'm not really a Shipper, but I do sometimes squee when nice things happen to ships I care for.

NEXT I WANT FALLOUT OKAY SHORE?

Yeah, kinda with a "imaginary Cuddy-stripper" vibe. ;D

Cuddy desperately needs to inflict violence on House just ONCE!

Oh, God, I second the violence sentiment so much. That would be awesome. Oh, and Chase needs to sock House as a return for that Finding Judas punch.

BEAT HIM WITH HIS OWN CANE I SAY

I think the only solution here is for them to blindfold House and to send him down a line of all the other characters, who will paddle his ass. Just like Homer and the stone-cutters. Cause I'm sure everyone wants to give House a paddling. ;)
