Obsessed With The Way Vicodin Is Such A Huge Piece Of Symbolism In House’s Relationships. Like. Cuddy

Obsessed with the way Vicodin is such a huge piece of symbolism in House’s relationships. Like. Cuddy left him because he relapsed. She told him that he took the Vicodin to avoid pain, because pain means you care and he wasn’t willing to do that. We’ve seen throughout the show how House’s emotional pain manifests as physical, increasing whenever he feels guilt or anger or sadness or fear. Keep in mind this was while Cuddy was worried she might have cancer.

And then Wilson ACTUALLY gets cancer, and House treats him at his apartment, and he feeds him Vicodin. Because Wilson is in pain, and he’s always the one who cares so much, and it’s House’s turn to take that away. And House doesn’t take any Vicodin. He feels the pain so Wilson’s is lessened, because he CARES. They make a point to show that he is willing to care, willing to take on that burden for him.

House will do anything to stop the pain, unless it makes Wilson suffer.

What I say: Damn, that guy's hot.

What I mean: I love that facial structure. I need to study it, learn to draw it, and use it for my art. Also, I want that haircut.

The funniest thing about season 3 of Bridgerton is the tonal shift between Cressida’s scenes and everyone else’s. Homegirl is fighting for her life in a genuine horror movie while everyone else is flitting about in a rom com.
