Do-over story?

[tobbles-plink.livejournal.com]

I was wondering if there are any do over stories out there.  Some how House dies and he does sort of an Ebenezer Scrooge and sees what the world would have been like without him (hopefully worse) and gets a chance do it over.

Or even better in Season three, ep 8 Whac-a-mole, when Wilson is transferring his patients to other dr.'s and tells House to leave and later he drives by him on his bike- what if he wrecked?  And he got to start over, would he get to Wilson before he starts marrying all his wives and even better be less of an ass?

I definitely can't see him being completely different if given another chance since I believe Stacy had mentioned he'd always been that way even before the drugs, but what if he didn't get hooked this time? Would that make a difference?

Thanks for reading!

Tobbles.

Something similar is a multi-chapter fic where House and Wilson never become friends because Wilson makes a wish. It's long and good:

I think I have read a 'never born' fic once but I don't recall its name or author. Perhaps someone else here will.

Nightdog and Blackmare have the Looking Glass series, which is similar to what you want. Menolly wrote one section in the middle:

Those and vampmissedith's that barefootpuddles linked to above are the only ones I can think of right now.

I knew I'd read another one and I found it but it turns out it's House/Cuddy but while I was looking for that I pulled up a whole list of 'A Christmas Carol' stories - here (https://www.fanfiction.net/search.php?ready=1&keywords=christmas%20carol&categoryid=1968&genreid1=0&genreid2=0&languageid=0&censorid=0&statusid=0&type=story&match=&sort=&ppage=1&characterid1=0&characterid2=0&characterid3=0&characterid4=0&words=0&formatid=0) .

There's a story where Wilson goes back in time, grabs House from John and raises him from childhood. I liked it but it's um... not a happy story. I don't have a link handy but if you're interested I could probably find it somewhere.

This is bit different but awesome. It's about what happens to the other characters when they don't meet House because he never became a doctor. Player Piano (http://archiveofourown.org/works/14635) by LeiaScully.

I also wrote a fic in which House makes a specific choice to start over (character death): Long Weekend/Ever After (http://archiveofourown.org/works/162302/chapters/235516).
