Disclaimer: I do not own anything House, M.D. except the season one box set. I own no copyrights and do not intend to make money off of this. I do this because it is fun. So no sue. I have no money anyway.

Summary: 100 word ficlets about pretty much whatever I can think of. I'm going in alphabetical order, picking a word and then kind of writing a story around it. This is my first House fic, so I'm trying to keep the characters in character, as they ought to be, but hey, I'm not a good writer so I'm sure some OOC may rear its ugly head, though I will try to keep it to a minimum. I hope you enjoy it!


Fool

He wasn't going to be just another statistic. He was going to make something out of himself; he would NOT allow himself to become what everybody expected of him. Sure, he slipped up once, but he made sure nothing like that ever happened again. He was always on guard, on the alert, vigilant. He wasn't going to be anyone's fool. He wasn't going to let anybody take away what he'd earned. He commanded respect. He wasn't going to be just a black doctor. He was going to surpass everybody's expectations. Eric Foreman was going to be the best black doctor.
