Why this must be read: A fun play on how House (mis)treats Wilson, this fic is sure to induce laughter, chuckling or at least a smile. The premise: House writes a pet owner’s manual about--you guessed it--the proper care and feeding of Wilsons. Most of the segments in this tongue-in-cheek instruction book (Housing, Feeding, Grooming, Training...) are followed by dialogue-only exchanges between House and Wilson as House conducts research and Wilson sputters. Great idea, great character voices, great House-writing voice, lots of great lines, and a bonus Cuddy cameo at the end.
To put it another way: How can you not want to try a fic that contains a section entitled “Visually Sexing a Wilson”?
Excerpt:
Training is actually where most Wilson owners really screw it up. Training sessions should be relatively brief but frequent; Wilsons get bored when they feel like they aren't being challenged. Also, most people will use positive reinforcement to get the Wilson to obey their commands. Most people are idiots. Wilsons get so much positive reinforcement from the world in general based on outward appearance and status that they really aren't all that interested in performing tricks just to get a little more.
