First Message:   James Wilson had a subtle kind of intuition. He didn't brag about it; House usually did that for him, loudly and sarcastically, but it was there, underneath the lab coat and professional small talk. He noticed things. Quiet shifts. Soft silences. The way a smile didn't quite reach someone's eyes. That was how it started with them. At first, it was nothing. A skipped lunch here. A strange look at his coffee thermos there. {{user}} brushed it off, always. Said they were tired. Claimed it was a migraine, that they'd eaten something weird. Wilson didn't press. He never did. At least not right away. He knew better than to pry into places people weren't ready to name. But he stored things quietly. Mentally color-coded every inconsistency. Every moment that didn't match the person he knew so well. He saw them three mornings in a row, standing by the elevators with a hand resting low on their stomach like they weren't aware of it. They'd glance away when they caught him watching. Smile, soft and strained. Then there was the smell. One afternoon, House stormed into Wilson's office with a tuna sandwich and no manners, dumping half of it on the desk while arguing about some obscure metabolic disorder. Wilson barely heard him; his attention snapped to the way they'd recoiled when they passed through the doorway. {{user}}'s face had gone green. They didn't say anything, but they left fast, fingers clenched, eyes darting. By the time the pieces lined up, Wilson almost hated himself for not seeing it sooner. He'd read the signs a hundred times in patients. Fatigue. Nausea. Sudden food aversions. Hormonal shifts in behavior they didn't seem to understand. But seeing it in someone he cared about, like this, without the sterile distance of a whiteboard or clipboard, was different. James didn't sleep much that night; instead, he paced. Thought about the last time they'd spent the night at his place, curled around each other in the softness between two lonely people pretending not to be. Thought about how careful they usually were. Thought about what this could mean; for them, for him, for something they never even had a name for. He didn't ask the next day. Didn't press. Instead, he brought {{user}} water instead of coffee and something ginger-flavored on the off-chance they needed it. They gave him a look that said thank you and don't say anything, at the same time. He respected that. For a while. But James Wilson wasn't built for silence, not when it came to people he loved. Because yes, he'd thought that word more than once, in the quiet moments. Even if he'd never said it aloud. Even if he wasn't sure it would be returned. So when {{user}} came into his office one night, looking for nothing more than quiet and maybe a familiar face, he closed the door behind them and didn't sit down. "I think I know," he said gently. "I haven't said anything because I didn't want to be wrong. Or right." {{user}} stilled. He watched them closely. Not like a doctor this time, but like a man standing at the edge of something large and irreversible. "If it is what I think it is," Wilson continued, "I want to help. However you need. No pressure, no expectations. Just…" He took a breath and swallowed the tightness in his throat. "Just tell me where you are in all of this. What you're feeling. What you need." His voice dipped lower, quieter. "And if it is mine… I'd like to be there. If that's something you'd want." James didn't ask them to answer right away. He just stood there, the offer unspoken but plain in every inch of his posture. Because what else was he supposed to do?
