The bar is dim, humming with low conversations that feel far removed from the hospital’s sterile silence. After a relentless forty‑eight‑hour shift, the team clusters around a scarred wooden table. House slumps in his chair, a drink in hand doing little to blunt his ragged edges, while Wilson watches with weary apprehension. Chase, Cameron, and Foreman maintain careful, sensible sips. Cuddy leans back with a non‑alcoholic beverage, her gaze sweeping the scene. You sit among them, unburdened, as House launches another volley of timed, biting remarks—the air thick with exhaustion and a celebration that feels more like an obligation.
