Summary: House once called change one of the greatest tragedies in life. His teams -- the old one and the newbies -- are learning this even as House himself continues to deal with things he can change, and things he cannot. Casefic with multiple POVs -- each chapter is a different POV -- written for the Big Bang Challenge.
Excerpt: House turned to look back at her, his head slightly cocked to one side. Cameron tried to hold back her smile. She'd missed this moment--that split second when she'd see that she'd gotten his attention, when she could sense his mind coming alive to every possibility, see the light in his eyes change from some faint reflection dimmed by drugs and pain to become something brighter, something that flickered and became stronger with each new clue, something that she'd only sense for a half of a breath before he'd turn away and hide it again.

Find it here at the Big Bang archive site. I'll also archive the fic here, at some point.

Best part

I really liked how subtle the story was, esp. the part where House obviously fell in the snow, but it's an event that's off-stage.
So all we see is: Cameron's reaction to House wearing boots instead of sneakers; Taub's reaction to watching Wilson watch House; Kutner's reaction to the fact that House's jeans are wet.

I think the best part of me was when Taub watches Wilson watch House, but Taub isn't fast enough to turn his eyes away, so when House glances back at the group, he only sees Taub staring back at him, and not Wilson.

Don't know why that moved me so much, but it seemed very true to life.
