I just had an interesting mental flash: Patrick Jane stuck in an elevator with Gregory House.
I'm just, uh, just feeling kinda... truthsome right now. And, uh... life's just too damn short for ifs and maybes.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
that might be the only ep of House I would watch.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Who would win? Who would cry?
I imagine Jane leaving with a Vicodin addiction.

That would be a heck of a trick, to get House to share.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
House would kill him after about 5 minutes.

Dana, are you sure about that? Jane is pretty hardcore. I think I'd bet on Jane.

Jane doesn't go straight to violence. House would. Especially when trapped in an elevator.

I'm not 100% convinced that it would come down to a physical confrontation, but if it does, House definitely wins. He's the one with the weapon, upper body strength, scientific knowledge of precisely where to hit. If he's willing to use the cane against a friend who thwarts his will, think what he would do when faced with another man with some of the same superiority complex, who is as willing as House is to irritate the hell out of people by laying open their hidden motivations. Yeah, House loves to do that himself, but he has zero desire to be flayed in the same way. House's need for dominance is more overt than Jane's. And Jane's survival in a small enclosed space for any length of time with no one but House for company depends mostly on his recognizing that he could provoke House too far before it is too late, and also having his sense of self-preservation operational at the moment he makes the choice.

And if it's just a matter of how deep the liquid content from the pissing contest gets, House wins because he's taller, and Jane will drown while he's just standing on his tip-toes in it.
