Reviews for A Shoulder to Cry On
VisualIDentificationZeta chapter 7 . 9/30/2008
I liked the idea of Cameron making House realize his feelings for her, but there's a fine line between a woman being outgoing and being a sl-ut, which is what she had become by sleeping with different men all the time. This is also the point where you lost me.

Something to think about: no man will want a woman who slept with a different guy every few days and about who a significant single male population of the town/neighborhood can rightfully claim they've seen her naked and that she's given her body to them. Fact is, it's bad for his self-esteem and pride and men also like to pretend there was no-one before them in that woman.

It's also not-believable that a doctor, who knows everything about STDs (and the fact that condoms are not 100 percent in preventing transmitting STDs and preventing pregnancies) would be that stupid. Especially a doctor who has always had a pretty good sense of morality and propriety. It's who Cameron is and, sadly in this fic, who she once was and is no more.

I just read this and I love it, but it hasn't been updated in almost three years. I'm going to put it on my story alert list just in case, it would be a shame not to continue this story, it's very good.

What happened? You should so finish this story.

LOL! Of course House would have mob connections somehow.

I'm incredibly sad that you haven't updated this in almost...2 years? You have an original voice, and I really love how...domestic, I guess is the right word. How DOMESTIC House could be if written right. It's totally realistic, and the progression of their relationship is just perfect! I truly hope you haven't abandoned this, because it's AMAZINGLY RIDONKULOUSLY good! :)

LOL, ok, I'm definitely planning to read more after this, but I just HAD to say that you totally nailed it with the European vacation. I just burst out laughing with all the little things you included-like the lackluster scenery, and how everything needed salt, ::snort::-because that was EXACTLY what went through my head when I was in Italy.

Ok, now off to read more! :)

Like "The Simpsons" do you (on started to pick up on that a few chapters ago, somewhere between the mentioning of Otto's jacket and the Duff p.j.s)? Well, I can't blame you there...

You write the character of Meemaw so well - you can tell right from the off that she's this larger-than-life character with a tremendous legacy. She's like your favorite character from those novels that were read in junior high and high school (the character you chose to write that characterization paper on because she's the most interesting). Anyway, well done.

Peace,

Hahaha. So were you touring Appalachia as you wrote this story, too? I'm definetely consulting this story if I ever decide to do that Mediterranean-Appalachia tour I've had my eye on. You seem to have an limitless arsenol of references and trivia stored away - a feature quite conducive to writing a House story.

Though they are not what I had expected, I do like Cameron's family thus far. I can't wait to meet the rest!

Peace,

Haha - Great last line there.

Wow: so much of the dialogie in your story is top-notch: smart, funny, filled with pop culture and other references! It's great to read. The last few chapters have been my favorite so far (this one is probably at the top of my list) for both their dialogue and their events. Well done!

Whoa! That was kind of quick, wasn't it? Is that a "I promise we'll get married" ring, or a "I promise that you can move in with me" ring? I suppose he did move in with Stacey relatively quickly... I don't know. He's unpredictable.

Before I sign off on this review, let me just comment again on your impressive breadth of knowledge of pop culture, and, well, culture in general it seems (makes it easy to keep up with the "House" writers). Also, were you literally on a tour of the Mediterranean at the time you wrote this, or are a travel agent, because I felt like I was reading a Fodor's guidebook - it was really interesting (though unexpected). Any way - WOW! Nice job.

Peace,

O - SNAP! You go, Cameron!

Admittingly, I appreciated all of your subtle jabs at the U.S.'s food in relation to Europe's in this chapter (I have not been to Europe, but I have had every notion about food put forth in this chapter repeatedly affirmed by people who have). And the "Freedom Fries" comment was funny, too... There are many things the U.S. gets right, but our version of fast food is not one of them - at least not yet.

Anywho - Good chapter; smart and well-written, and very informative. Cameron is a little out of character, but I think that's only because she's changed. And who knows what she would be like on a vacation in the French Riviera?

Peace,

Man - your extensive knowledge of pop culture is very well exhibited in this story! It's impressive: a different kind of reference every few sentences it seems (how House-like).

This story is truly unique. I don't think I have ever seen Cameron handled quite this way. It's great in some respects (she's becoming more self-reliant and thick-skinned), but it's a little sad to see one of my favorite characters growing just a bit colder, though perhaps it's necessary. We'll just have to see what happens... Good job, though. It's a good story!

Chapter 8 is next!

What a unique premise for a "House" story. It's really fun. I'll admit that Foreman, Chase, and Cameron all seem a bit crazier than usual, but I suppose that's the point.

LOL. I laughed aloud when I read that bit about the Stewardess dance; it reminded me of those times I've made up zany dances with my friends (though we never got quite that creative).

Chapter three is next!

Peace,
