TITLE: Occlusion
AUTHOR: Allison Stillwell ([info]jaggedapple)
PAIRING: House/Cuddy
RATING: PG-13
WARNINGS: None.
SUMMARY: In the summer of 2007, Lisa Cuddy presents Greg House with a new patient, something that's an everyday occurrence. This time, however, the patient is thousands of miles away in a rural area of the West African nation of Ghana. Confused by both her reasons for demanding him to take such a case and the scant amount of information on his new patient, he follows her to Ghana. When they arrive at the rural clinic, they're faced with a mysterious and secretive doctor and a rather odd nurse who demands nothing of her employer, most especially not questions about her past. As they work with the patients at the doctor's clinic, they try to find a pattern in local maladies, but with no new information forthcoming from their patient with a self-imposed occluding of access to her past, they have an insanely difficult time coming up with an answer as the doctor's health declines rapidly.
DISCLAIMER: I don't own House.
NOTES: If you enjoy it, please do review! Previous reviews have been really helpful for new chapters and sections I've rewritten!

Chapters 1 through 18 can be found at the link above. A direct link to Chapter 19 is here:

'Something doesn't seem right.'

Let’s see if I get this posting-thing right or if you end up with my grocery list instead LOL...


title: answer the frog
author: the unreliable narratress
fandom: House MD
episode/spoiler: references to the end of season 5
characters: House, nameless OC
rating: pg, gen
warning: none I can think of

summary: House and his therapist at Mayfield play a word game that goes suddenly wrong. (mostly dialog, short-oneshot)
a/n: I was bored one night and hit “random article” on the main page of Wikipedia – it showed me an article about pancakes. Widely pancakes are a good thing and foundation of many happy memories, but in this story they are used as a symbol for things lost. The title came from more bored expe-google-tions through the world wild net.

disclaimer: I have to feed a seven year old wabbit and a half a year old computer so please don't sue me. Seriously: I hope the idea to this story is mine, but I do not intend to touch the rights of the owner of the characters from House MD I’ve used. No moneymaking, no offence meant.

Author: </a></b></a>[info]hereare_mysins
Pairing: House/Wilson pre-slash
Category: emotional hurt

Words: 880
Summary: Sequel to The Misery of Magic. Destruction of Masochism & The Secrets Deepened Must Never Be Troubled - House messes up big time.
Disclaimer: I am David Shore because Wilson and House have been secretly humping each other every time the elevator closes in each scene they are together. Yes, really. Oh, and did I mention, I am also JK Rowling, and that I also own half of Warner Bros. Yeah, yeah.

For anyone wondering, I won't be at Azkatraz (room & board + plane ticket + con ticket + comic con, (which I would want to go for too) = $$$) so...I WILL LIVE VICARIOUSLY THROUGH Y'ALL INSTEAD. Take photos, take vids, do livestreaming via Ustream/Qik on your mobiles!

The highlight of the summer for me is American Idol Concert on the 23rd in Dallas. I was headed there anyway for family reasons, so I bought a ticket for the show. I WILL GET ALLISON'S AUTOGRAPH \o/

[info]koyuki_san, would you like autographs from Kradison or anyone else??? I don't care if I tan the color of fudge in the Texas heat that day - AM GETTING TO MEET THEM, WOOT!

Also going to vid Allison's performances and livestream it via Qik.com! I'm very tired of the poor cell cast quality @ Rickey.org The cellcasts don't compare to livestream quality really.

OMG, WATCHING HBP AT THE ALAMO DRAFTHOUSE IN 3 DAYS!!!

Edit: Oh and I still wish there were fic about this guy who transforms into this beast *_* Both forms are just, wow :)

02. How did you find out about Hogwarts Elite? I’ve seen the community name floating around LJ for awhile, and after a bit of initial trepidation about the one-strike policy, I thought I’d come and try my hand at getting sorted and joining.
03. What made you start reading the Harry Potter series? A cousin of mine started reading the series – I believe from around the time the first book came out. He’d mentioned it once or twice before and finally when the third book came out, let me borrow the first. I devoured it and wanted more. And then when I when I read the third book… Well! Couldn’t keep me away after that.

To the well-organized mind, death is but the next great adventure! )

02. How did you find out about Hogwarts Elite? I actually heard about you guys while I was in another sorting community way back when.

03. What made you start reading the Harry Potter series?
I started reading it by accident. My grandmother bought me the first three books before the series was really popular, and I'd ignored them for the longest time, thinking they were kids' books. Then one day, I got bored and picked up Sorcerer's Stone, and I wound up so engrossed that I literally didn't take my nose out of the book. I actually climbed stairs while reading. I've been addicted ever since.

To the well-organized mind, death is but the next great adventure! )

02. How did you find out about Hogwarts Elite? Googling.
03. What made you start reading the Harry Potter series? A few of my friends were into it, so I started reading the books to understand what they were talking about. That was about ten years ago. What has kept me reading (and re-reading) after all of this time (aside from Jo's cliffhanger's) was the depth of character.

To the well-organized mind, death is but the next great adventure! )

I have bought season one of Lost and a verity other television shows, I would like to make icons out of the shows but I ran into a problem.

I will watch the shows on my computer using either PowerDVD or Windows Media Player, when I take the screenshot using the “Prnt Scrn” button and paste it on Paint, the image turns out black. I also tried pasting it on GIMP, but the same thing happened, where the image I screen captured should be it is just plain black.

Does anyone know how I can fix this, should I try a different viewing program or should I paste it somewhere else? Any Ides?
