Why this must be read:

I didn't even know this pairing existed until I found this in September. This fic takes place in Season 1. Like I said before, I like Whitney. He could be a tool, yes, but he wasn't a complete tool and he had a three-dimensional quality to his actions.

Amelia doesn't make Chloe and Whitney fall in love quickly. How could she when, from all indications, they had nothing in common? Well, actually, there was one thing-- they were both the second-raters. The bugs on the windshield in the emotional rollercoaster that was Lana/Clark. The writer doesn't concentrate on that either. She weaves off-screen personalities and motivations for both characters that touch everyone who's ever felt like the extra in Life's Drama. And she does this is a fun way.

Why this must be read: This was, hands-down, the best fic to speculate about the aftermath of the Season Four finale. It's set between Season Four and Five, and has House and Wilson on a road trip, headed to a Southern beach town while they recover from the physical and emotional wounds suffered in "House's Head" and "Wilson's Heart." There is grief, anger and hard-won healing. The writing is just luminous.
