Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I am incapable of taking care of myself. I give up. I can't even buy myself a latte and a macchiato (double) without trashing my car and my living room carpet.

Henceforth, I give myself over to...to...FUCK. Where is my knight in shining armour? Or at least my carpet cleaner, or perhaps an employer?

Did you spill your coffee, or did you park your car in the living room again?

I just watched Hugh Laurie's acceptance speech, and, gosh, if he didn't look scraggly like House, no one would believe it was him.

Robert Sean Leonard gave HL a reason to thank him? Please, Hugh, we shippers don't need more reasons.

FCM: knight in shining armour, carpet cleaner, employer

F: carpet cleaner--he may have to be doing things on that carpet, and he wants it clean
C: the knight--armor is a pain in the ass to keep clean, and I hate tripping over the stuff in the dark, though the cats do like sleeping in the helmets
M: employer--especially if you've got a kick-ass prenup.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

C - carpet cleaner.

If I'm employed and fucking a knight in shining armor, I could give a damn about the carpets.

I'm with brenda. And the knight polishes his own crap.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

You people make me laugh. Except for ita's bad day -- that is NOT ON. And workout-istas! Go you guys!

I thought a knight had a squire and a page to worry about the armor and stuff.

Some days, I want one for me. Really, more just a personal assistant (forgot I needed to get needles and insulin, very soon.)

I'm sitting here, marvelling that an ancient, dollar store purchased cd of Vivaldi actually has enough info on it that the nifty bit of software can troll the internet and actually provide the track ids. I mean, this cd has got to be nearly 15 years old. I likely didn't imagine I'd be loading it onto a hard drive 15 years ago.
