Oh, thank you for watching! I'm really glad you enjoyed it.
That's true, but all that is why I don't understand why people hate her so much... Because it's not just a hate, like, the kind of hate people have for villains... I mean, that's part of it, I think - there is a "You hurt House! Be gone!" mentality, although that seems irrational to me because that's part of the story... and it's part of the character. House is the character we know and love, partly because of her. Maybe I'm slightly sadistic - or suffer from some of Cameron and Wilson's issues - but I like seeing House vulnerable, occasionally. In this sense, people hate her, or at least, dislike or are angry at her, as if she were a real person, while still appreciating her as a character and appreciating her part in the House universe.
However, some of the Stacy-hate is just shippers' rivalry. You know: "Oh, no, back off, bitch, he's Cameron's/Wilson's/Cuddy's!" That idea. And that's just plain ridiculous. There are the people who call her botox-face, etc.
Beyond that, though, some people just dislike her existence altogether and avoid any fanworks that deal with her. And that I just don't understand. Because it's a good story, and it's a huge part of House. Shrug. I don't know.
And about the rec, I don't really have a very big or a very fannish f-list, but hopefully someone will check it out! It's a great piece! I was thinking about it as I made this vid, what with all the emphasis on the piano and stuff, and the memories. And that one line, "But you don't really care for music, do you?" reminded me of it.
