The Watch Kutner Gave House

It's Casio SPF-40-V1. It's pretty snazzy with triple sensors and whatnot. 100m water resistance. Not particularly needed features if you're not into outdoor sports, and it makes the watch look bulky, but Kutner would have thought it was cool Just Because and House appreciated it.

according to timepiece nerds on the internet this is god tier watch but idk if they're srs or not lol

House was wearing a different watch in season 4 episode 10 where secret Santa happened and in season 4 episode 11 he is wearing a this watch. This is probably what Kutner bought House for secret Santa, and House began to wear it immediately. (It's also way over the price limit for secret Santa. I don't know how much it actually was, and I do need to consider that it was in 2007 money, but I am pretty sure it was more than $25 or even $50 or $60.) This is why he was like this in Frozen.

House wears this watch all the way through end of season 6. I just know he thought about Kutner every time he put it on. I think he goes back to the old watch some time in season 7.

based housner understander......

sjshsuwhwhwhw yeah idk if I understand them yet but I love what they've got going on. they are so alike but also so different and so tragic.

some scattered thoughts about them:

i like that house kept firing him and he kept coming back hehdhssh he truly was meant for this fellowship.

and when kutner gives house the watch for secret santa and he's smiling until he sees thirteen and taub and realises they were watching dhshshsh he was literally caught flirting with their boss. and house grinning as he walks away. top housner moments of all time 💖💖💖 house was so fond of him and kutner matched his freak. they should have kissed.

im watching house md for the first time and I'm close to finishing season 5 and I already miss kutner so bad. and house is literally so shaken up by kutner's suicide. godddddd. in a way kutner was to house what amber was to wilson but also not exactly.

Sometimes I think about that, in TLD, Lestrade put a guard at Sherlock's door. But Sherlock, when being threatened with death by a serial killer, did not cry out. If John Watson was not the one to save him, then Sherlock Holmes did not want to be saved.

If that isn't Sherstrade in a nutshell, I have no idea what is.

HOW REESE WENT FROM LOVING CARTER TO LOVING FUSCO (AND YES, I CAN PROVE IT)

So here's something very important to start with: Reese and Fusco's development would NEVER have happened without Carter.

Reese would've killed himself if he hadn't met Carter. Before Finch even had the chance to meet him, he would've been gone if not for her. She was the one to truly change him.

As for Fusco, although it was Reese who started his path to change, it was Carter who made him finally want to be a better cop. Carter was the first (and for the early season, the only) one to truly show respect for him and treat him as a friend.

This is even shown by the Machine on the last episode. Of all people, they were the ones whose life changed the most because of her.

So when John runs away to Colorado, you think Fusco was the one to go after him just because he was the less one useful against Samaritan? NO. It was always meant to be him because he was the ONLY ONE to fully understand what Reese felt.

The three episodes following Carter's death (the Colorado Arc) mark the end of Fusco's main character arc - whitch had begun with Reese - but also, and most important of all, the beginning of Reese's new arc about havin to move on from Carter - witch begins because of Fusco. Same way Carter influenced them, they're influencing each other.

And what is the main thing this new arc evolves around? REESE'S RELATIONSHIP WITH FUSCO.

Up until this moment, their dynamic suffered little to no change at all, serving more as a comedic relief (like everything with Lionel but ok). But things suddently change drastricly, and now John's new identity leads him to be in Carter's place as a cop and Fusco's partner. They have to work together in both their jobs, spending more time with each other than with anyone else.

Slowly, Reese starts to treat Lionel like a true partner instead of just mocking him. He still tries to shut Fusco out (everything evolves around this between them) from the whole 'saving people' thing and from himself, but when it's clear that it won't work, he actually seems happy, and he begins to show his respect for Lionel more and more.

Hmm... trying to keep him away... learning to trust each other...

If this all sounds familiar, it's because that's exactly what happened with Reese and Carter in the first seasons. We're basically seeing Reese slow-burn all over again.

But all those positive changes between them I just listed still aren't enough to make John fully recover. Witch leads us to our most critical point:

S04E20 "Terra Incognita".

Reese wants to solve Carter's old case all by himself, still struggling with her death even after all that's happened. He ends up alone in the dark and cold, with nothing but a hallucination of her, forced to face the fact that he wasted the connection they had by shutting her out.

Carter tells him over and over again that he doesn't have to be alone, that even if she's gone, John still can have that connection and love with someone else.

Of course, she's referring to all the others from the team. But deep down, it all comes back to only one person - FUSCO.

We don't see who's in the car that appears at the end, but we know it's him because when Finch calls and mentions the case Reese was working on Fusco immediately recognizes it. Neither Finch nor Root go after him, so we can safely assume it's him.

Only Fusco goes to save him. Yeah, John might not be alone, and the others worry about him, but what this tells us is that in the end he only really has Lionel.

Fusco saves John from himself just like John saved Fusco at the beginning of the series.

And what happens right after Fusco shows up?? Carter dissapears and this is the last time we ever see her, which could very possibly symbolize that Reese has finally accepted her death and it's ready to move on.

And who shows up when Reese finally let's Carter? FUSCO.

DO YOU SEE THIS?? DO YOU SEE WHAT THEY'RE IMPLYING??!!

And if that's not enough, what happens right after this episode?

REESE STARTS BEING ALL NICE AND OPEN WITH HIM

This wouldn't be a big deal if he started this everyone, but it's only with Lionel. Not with Finch, not with Root - these relationships stay the same as every episode. C'mon, people, he even goes so far as joining the police bowling club after Fusco invites him.

He's trying to have a normal life - WITH FUSCO!!

And even when this stops once things start getting chaotic in season 5 and Reese tries to shut him out once again, the struggle he's going through is just SO blatant. He wants to protect Lionel more than anything, but he's visibly suffering because of it.

Just look at this scene:

The amount of consideration he has for Fusco in this!! He can't help but still want to be sincere with him, but at the same time he doesn't want to endanger him, and so he tries to be impersonal, pretending that this isn't just between the two of them.

I could extend my argument some more with other moments of the final season, but I wanted to focus solely on Reese's feelings on this one and I think what I've shown so far is more than enough to settle my point.

Resse loved Fusco the same way he loved Carter, so much he wanted to try and have with him what he never had with her.

This rant might be a bit messy or confusing, but I wouldn't be able to sleep if I didn't share this somewhere. The fact that all of this was in the series is just too much for me. To my fellow Rusco soldiers, our war is never over ~
