    What was Blackmare's one line?

    • perspi

      The best one, of course!

      (referring to Mare's line in 23.1: Surprises, because I don't remember the writing of the last chapter so much!)

      My line in Surprises was a joke I "heard" in House's voice -- repeatedly; he thought it was hilarious -- while I was driving home from work.

      Cameron asked him whether he was on drugs, and he said "Nope. I drugged Wilson. And then I slept with him." And he thought it was the funniest thing ever because it was completely true and a total lie at the same time, and nobody'd believe it in either case.

      In Win, Lose or Draw my only line was the part at the beginning about House trying to irritate the ghost-of-Wilson that seemed to inhabit Wilson's office.

    What's really astounding to me is how each author brought their own special something to the story without disrupting the flow -- the chapters were never written in noticeably different styles, as often occurs in these types of group effort stories, and the mood was consistent. You guys definitely make a great team. :D

      Thank you. We really loved the relay-team aspect of this. We kept each other from going astray and we critiqued one another ... gently, but constantly.

      We're going to discuss the process at some length, after the Epilogues go up. It was a great deal of fun for all of us.

    Niice :)

    Now I can use this list when I get a chance to read again. It was really hard to tell that the stories were written by different people ^.^

  • pwcorgigirl

    Ladies, take a bow! It's amazing to see who wrote what because I would have guessed about 90 percent wrong. The story had its own very consistent voice throughout, and that's just amazing.

    I was a reluctant reader at first (the brutal attack of BC really bothered me) but I could not ignore such talent for storytelling and was slowly drawn into the loving world that you all created. It fit so perfectly together, each chapter bringing something a little different up and exploring how something this horrible, this frightening, could bring together two wounded souls. I can't tell you how much I enjoyed it in bits and in pieces and as a whole. You are all talented, I would say on the short list of this fandom's best.

      the brutal attack of BC really bothered me

      We'd be worried about you if that were not the case. It bothered us, too. Deeply.

      And that -- that's why we couldn't leave it where it originally ended.

    All the different angles and personalities and moments of time created a really stunning prismatic effect.

    Brava to all of you!

    To all of you, as The Collective- Unbelievable.

    To each of you, singly.. Thank you. It's hard for me to see you now as anything except professional caliber story-weavers.

    You have done something that few accomplish..you have woven a story that is gripping in it's intensity, graphic in it's reality, surrealistic, shocking, entertaining, disturbing, clarifying and defining.

    While good wins, evil doesn't lose. Battles are not without casualties. Scars both physical and emotional are evident. Victory is hard-won but not definitive. Warriors wounded, comrades still.

    While I wished, hoped, dreamed with every ounce of my spirit that Martin would Get His, I wouldn't have bought it if he had. It would have been Too Easy..and nothing between House and Wilson is ever that trite.

    Still...you will all forgive me, will you not? If I just slowly and painfully boil Martin in oil in my mind? If I spend hours thinking up ways to remove his wretched evil presence from the land of living? I thought I disliked Tritter. Tritter was a pansy compared to Martin.

    Finally, I offer you this, for what it is worth. I've been reading and writing fanfic since 1973...way before it was called "fanfic" or the internet even existed. I've read thousands upon thousands of entries in zines, online and elsewhere. I've got several pieces published in 5 or 6 "Alias Smith and Jones: You, Me and The Governor" zines. If there were a definitive award for fanfiction; a "Pulitzer Prize" as it were...this series should win it. It's the best piece of fiction I've ever read.

      Yes !!!! Yes!!! I so agree with you that it is the Pulitizer of fanfiction, I have never read anything that even comes close to this ficverse. I just wish someone would pass it along to the House writers. I am at a total loss now that the main story in this ficverse had ended. I read other fics but it's just not the same. I want so desperately to stay in this ficverse. I want to know to peek into the window of their new life together as roommates and their continued relationship as colleagues. I want to know how others in Houseverse, Cuddy, Foreman, Chase, and Cameron are changed by the change in the House/Wilson relationship.

      I want to follow this beautifully crafted parallel Houseverse that rivals in every way imaginable the TV Houseverse until infinity. Truly I am in mourning and feel an overwhelming sense of loss.

      Wow. Thank you.

      There's no prize for this, except for knowing that we've made it worth your while to keep reading.

      We really can't wait to open up the curtains a bit more and talk at ridiculous length about the process of writing this monster.

        11/17/07 12:23 am (UTC)
        Oh I am so looking forward to that because it would be intertesting to learn what each person's thinking was and how you all melded it together.

        • blackmare

          The thing that constantly amazed us was how alike our thoughts were. While we often (pleasantly!) surprised one another with the specific details and scenes we'd come up with, there was never any disagreement about the direction of the story itself or the characterizations.

          In fact we were often almost scarily in sync with one another.

    I love how the last part had contributions from all :)

    That was a fun game, trying to guess whom wrote the chapters. If I tried to bet about my favorite one, I'd lose... But the most terrifying chapter? I guessed right!

    I'm still amazed how the story had its own fluid style, how all of you could melt and mold your writing to create such a wonderful piece. You're the best!!!

    *Applause*

    I guessed only two of the parts used for the poll. I fail. lol.

    Anyway, I agree about the Pulitzer too ;)
    Is there some sort of award in the House fandom?
    Not that you need it to prove the awesomeness of this 'verse, but that way maybe more people could enjoy reading it.
    :)
