There's a long pause, where Royce just breathes harshly on the other side of the line. There's a lot in him that's trying to rise up, but he can't feel anything. It's all numbed out. He should feel horrified that he might see his daughter as anomaly, but he doesn't. He shouldn't want to push this so he feels anything at all, but he sort of does. Don't listen to House. You wouldn't, normally, Royce tells himself. Normally, you'd tell House to go fuck himself.
But he volunteered. And he wants - he thinks he doesn't want to be here anymore, he really doesn't. Maybe he won't come back. Alfie's gone right now. Maybe he won't either. ]
He would tell me to do this whether he was insane or not. Makes no difference.
