Not All Subtext is Created Equal

When it comes to slash pairings, I can differentiate between my perverted desires and subtext that's actually there, thanks. House, MD happens to be fraught with legitimate subtext between House and Wilson, whether the show creators intended it or not; never have I seen a slash pairing that casual viewers pick up on or gets unintentionally treated as a legitimate pairing underneath vehement denial. There's something different going on in House.

I've written this for the choir, who already knows all the answers; the skeptics, who claim to see nothing but friendship and think we're crazy; and even those who are picking up on something but can't put their fingers on it. I'll be comparing and contrasting House/Wilson to the Sean/Christian, Willow/Tara, and Jack/Ianto relationships. Naturally, there are spoilers ahoy for Torchwood (only up to episode 201), Buffy the Vampire Slayer, and Nip/Tuck. Oh, and House, MD, of course.

Because writing it down is the only way to get it out of my head so I can do more important stuff. )

Oh noes, Nip/Tuck had a documentary episode like House, which stole it from Show X. Oh noes! There's no originality left in the world~!

...Yeah, I'm not winning any fans by making fun of people's (irrational) complaints.

Oh well.

PLASTIC FANTASTIC! )
