SCREAMING, CRYING, THROWING UP!!!!!!!!
The mess and codependency these people have going on is actually unreal and I am so here for it. The thing about hilsoncuddy to me is that they are all awful, they are horrible and this relationship is basically the “we’re breaking up - we’re back together - we’re getting married - we’re getting divorced” meme with no end in sight… You and I basically looked at hilson took everything we like about that ship and said “what if we make it worse by adding another person?” And I genuinely think that was so smart of us!!
But this also means that there is a specific version of this ship I like and it’s definitely not one where they are soft and happy together, like good for everyone who likes that but to me these characters and their relationships are so defined by the fact that they have no other friends and are constantly hurting or using each other but at the same time they would do everything for the other two if they asked. If you take out the fact that they are incapable of having a healthy relationship it becomes kind of boring so I think we should put them in a rat maze or maybe a killing game and see what happens because there’s something so wrong with them, like just thinking about the tritter arc and how how both Wilson and Cuddy were ready to go to jail for house because they actually believe he’s a positive force on the world is making me insane!!!
During my first watch I wasn’t a fan of the house/cuddy will they won’t they because it felt like something that was written in the show because they are the male and female lead and that means we need this romance subplot regardless of how much it makes sense for the characters and while I still have issues with the way this show handles their relationship in later seasons I do think that there’s genuinely quite interesting aspects to their dynamic like these two are at a constant push and pull and when the show is at its best its really good mutual destruction but also a sign of trust and affection which I think is really fun
Hilson are genuinely so fucked up and codependent 10/10, no notes I think putting cuddy into this terrible spiral just makes it better
I do think that there’s a bit of extrapolation necessary in order to make this ship work in the way that I love because despite these 3 being the emotional core of this show, the writers sure hated having all of them in one scene/involved in the same situations, like Wilson and cuddy being good friends and also each others emotional support during their frequent divorces from house was way too underused but there’s a lot of interesting themes you can explore with their relationship
