I hope I'm doing this right...

Sorry, long-time lurker poking her head out from behind the Tags list...

There's a fic I read once and should've bookmarked; it's driving me crazy! I remember that someone kidnapped Wilson in a parking lot and set his car on fire so that everyone would think he was dead; he escaped somehow, and everyone thought he was homeless, and he hitchhiked back home.

As a side request, I'd like anything that's "friends to the end" between Wilson and House, like they have a special bond. I don't mind if it includes sex, but I usually skip over that part -- no offense, just a bit of a prude -- so it's good if that could be a minimal part of the story.

Thanks! You are all awesome! :-)

I wish I could help with that first one, especially given it's the sort of thing I like to read, but I haven't a clue.

For the second ... well, there are so many! I feel as if any story that shows them in-character fits that description, since that's the way they are on the show. I love pretty much anything by [livejournal.com profile] mer_duff, [livejournal.com profile] pwcorgigirl, [livejournal.com profile] jezziejay, [livejournal.com profile] sassyjumper, [livejournal.com profile] yarroway, [livejournal.com profile] menolly_au, I could go on at length.

Are there any particular things that ring your bells? Anything you've already found while lurking, loved, and want some similar stories?

Thank you so much! It's good to see new people coming into this corner of fandom. Feel free to drop by my journal any time.

I think the marriage fic might have been A Modest Proposal, which I'm somewhat embarrassed to admit I haven't read. I'm not sure how that happened, exactly. Someone else could tell you who wrote it; I'm drawing a blank right now.

Perspi hasn't written in House fandom in a long time now, but she has a fic index on her journal, and I'd recommend starting with No Little Charity. All good, though. And [livejournal.com profile] deelaundry has an enormous fic index too, with summaries to help you figure out what you want to read. She writes a lot of slash but also has plenty of nice gen.

Oh, [livejournal.com profile] flywoman and [livejournal.com profile] verbal_kint10 didn't write in the fandom nearly long enough, IMO, but both are fantastic.

One fun thing to do, when you find someone whose stories you really enjoy, is check their memories and see what stories they've memmed. It's a great way to turn up gems that would otherwise be kind of lost.

I've read this story, and will try to see if I can find it for you.

I've read it too. I was looking for it last night -- I thought it was by [livejournal.com profile] genagirl but I looked on Squidge (http://squidge.org/) and couldn't find it. :(

Is the car-fire story this one? Another Chance (http://www.squidge.org/housefanfiction/archive/5/anotherchance.html), by Rennie51? Found by [livejournal.com profile] yarroway, not me. *g*

Somehow I ran into and re-read this one just the other day. Here it is on FF, too, in case you want to leave reviews there:
