Summary
“Finish it out,” he grits between clenched teeth. “Go on. Ask it.”
Nolan shifts in his seat. “Are or are you not attracted, at the very least, to Wilson?”
House knocks his forehead against his cane. “I don’t know. Maybe.”
[In which Nolan pulls at the Wilson thread, and House can't stop it all from unraveling. Repression is a hell of a drug.]

Summary
What was it that Fitzjames had that Francis didn’t that so endeared him to Franklin? Everything, clearly, Francis’ stomach curdling. Fitzjames was English. He was elegant, witty, charming. Francis’ tongue involuntarily touched his teeth, feeling the little gap, as opposed to Fitzjames’ handsome, mostly even smile.

After the confrontation in the wardroom, Captain Crozier and Commander Fitzjames have it out, in more ways that one. But self-loathing and infatuation do not mix well, particularly in the Arctic.
