The House Dark
Jul. 4th, 2011 11:15 am![[personal profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png)
Summary: Wilson and his brother enjoy the fireworks together. A July 4th drabble for camp sick_wilson.
Warning: major character death, suicide
Rating: NC-17 for adult themes. No sex, violence or swearwords. Suggestions on the rating appreciated.
Word count: 100.
Disclaimer: as usual.
They sat together in the garden like they used to, the house dark, Independence Day fireworks exploding all around them. As they did as kids, they talked by tracing letters on each other's palms, undisturbed by the noise and the intermittent darkness.
"I wish Danny was here with us."
"Me too."
When he heard of House’s overdose death in some tropical paradise, James had first gotten drunk, then shot himself. Now he was blind, deaf and wheelchair-bound. And stubborn enough to finish what he started.
Tomorrow they would fly to Switzerland together, and Jonathan would bring the ashes back.

(I have to smile a little at blacking out the spoiler warning for character death but having a death!fic tag in plain sight...one of the problems with tagging things I guess:)

Yes... I don't quite know what to do. I'll just un-tag it I think. Tags are overrated.
