The trip took much longer than he'd hoped, and he'd been right in assuming he'd wind up taking a ship back. That would have been fine, except the damn thing had sunk  miles out from the shore, forcing him and the other passengers to struggle to shore on planks and leaky lifeboats.

He'd done it though, all without losing a single item from House's order.

He was feeling victorious- Until only a few hours into the last leg of his trip back he'd begun coughing and his body shakey and unsteady by the time he reached Greg's door and began to knock.

"I did hear that," House said, and then rolled his eyes. "The poor fool. I tried to warn him."

"I'm not sure I would say I know him," House said. "Just gave him some friendly advice." Which he hadn't expected him to take, honestly. House had once been enamored with the idea of working for the kingdom.

"And I definitely have no interest. I did my duty. Fuck the kingdom."

"Made me bait for a demon," House muttered.

Which wasn't completely accurate, or at least it was the least generous interpretation of events, but he thought he was entitled to hold a bit of a grudge.

"The injury to my leg," House said after a brief hesitation, "it was hellfire."

House snorted. "That they are," he said. "Like I said, I prefer to be my own boss."

"I make do," House said. "Besides, what do I need a lot of money for?"

Absently, he pulled the blanket over Danny.

House actually sat there for quite a while, watching him.

... and then realized that that was probably kind of weird. And so once he was pretty sure Danny was asleep, he carefully got up and left.
