House Big Bang Challenge: The Roots of Rhythm Remain (House/Cuddy/Wilson)

Title: The Roots of Rhythm Remain
Series: The Rhythm of the Saints
Summary: Lisa, Greg, Evan, and James, and how their story goes on.
Fandom: House
Word Count: 20015
Rating/Warnings: NC-17
Pairing: House/Cuddy/Wilson
A/N: I have written substantial meta for this story, available here.

Excerpt:
When the rabbi finally exhorts them to kiss the bride, they realize that, though they've fought out everything else, they've completely forgotten this moment. As if they've planned it, both Greg and James head for Lisa, who catches them on either cheek. The portion of the audience that doesn't secretly think they're all going to hell thinks it's all perfectly heartwarming.

When they're introduced, Lisa throws back her head and laughs, as if they've pulled one over on the universe.

This was a wonderful look at a unique family (how could they be anything but unique?)! I liked the way the structure moved the story through the years, bringing the focus up and down on the different family members. I especially liked the glimpses of Evan as she grew up. I loved her birthday date with Chase. And while I wanted to slap Wilson for falling back into old behaviours, I liked that he was finally able to break the pattern.

Thanks for sharing this with us!
