Okay, I am back, with more incoherent flail as promised!
Right from the first words, "Even someone broken..." I was hooked, because yes yes yes, that's so much the House I'm interested in, the one I'm getting at. His sadness and the way he's pushing everyone away. And look, there's House and Wilson, not sure that they're ever going to be able to get over the stuff that's come between them. And then the fellows, right before they walk away from him to find their own lives. And House and Stacy! I love so much that you've included her, because whenever I write about House, she's a huge part of his backstory; I never want to forget that his relationship with her shaped everything that came afterwards.
Ahh, all the set-up before Mayfield! Oh, and I gasped when the truck hit the bus and Amber came flying forward. Not just the first time, but the increasing intensity of the music there, and House falling into everything going wrong, being a prisoner at Mayfield, all the suffering he's going through. Wham! After the slow build in the first part of the vid, it gets my heart pumping.
I wasn't expecting a voice-over, but having Nolan speak here just works perfectly. See, I didn't know he'd become such a major force in my fic, but he kept speaking up, and I'm glad you've got him doing that here as well. "I want you...to trust...people." Yes! And it's a great segue over to House and Lydia, him looking at her, considering...them together. I loved writing that scene, feeling my way in to what might have been going on between them, and it was pivotal to House's character in the story.
And, aha! The music quickens as we get into House's conflicts with Foreman! Rrraowr moments with Thirteen--again, it's so awesome that you got every relationship included, you showed that everyone's important--and I LOVE LOVE LOVE that little clip of House looking in the night table, PERFECT. Ooh, and then Foreman's fight with Thirteen: fantastically repurposed; me, I love rewriting canon my own way, with the same medical/canon events, but with my own twists on the characters' emotions and relationships, and here you've done the same thing with the vid.
Ah, House and Thirteen, their relationship is so great...and then House turning to Foreman, contemplating--I have no idea where you got the clips of them in bed together, but they work perfectly. And then the final title: a sigh as the tension is both released and heightened. Man! Yes! House walking out, "getting off the bus" metaphorically, facing his life on Nolan's suggestion/advice and because of his own getting-better-ness.
The first time I saw this, I swear, I turned right around and watched it about five more times in a row. Ah, it makes me happy. And thank you for giving a story with Foreman in it a chance! I'm so glad it worked for you. Hee, and now I've tl;dred all over your comments, but man, it was worth it. :D :D :D :D THANK YOU.
