A ‘The ducklings finding out about Hilson’-fic collection
This is probably my favourite type of Hilson-fic because they’re always so fluffy and cute and domestic and funny. Especially love when the Ducklings go from ‘No fucking way, you’re not married House!’ to ‘Oh... you and Wilson… Yeah, that actually makes so much sense...’
I’ve created an ao3 bookmark-tag for myself but also thought that maybe I should put together a tumblr post as well so here we go:
Teddy Bear Timeline - FandomsAreMyFuel: (this might be one of the best Hilson-fics in general that I’ve read!) series 4/5 (ish) ducklings break into House’s home and are surprised by how homey it is and gets an insight of House life with Wilson
criteria - PaintedVanilla: (this is the Hilson-fic with the most kudos and I really understand why, it’s brilliant!) House and Wilson are betting on how long it will take for the original ducklings to figure out who House is married to
mutualism - PaintedVanilla: when Cameron says she’s only coming back to work for house if he goes on a date with her and later is told that House is already married to someone.
replicability - ORiley42: a sequel to criteria: it’s the new ducklings turn to run around the hospital and find House’s spouse
Wanna bet? - movingon_exceptnot: also House and Wilson betting on who long it’s going to take until the original ducklings realise they’re married; very “aaah, that makes so much sense” feeling when they find out
Dirty Little Secret - stasis: Cameron and Chase meet Wilson (who works at another hospital) when they break into House’s home and all of them are scared and confused and it’s very funny
The Private Life of Gregory House - superangsty: a 5+1 thing: House suddenly wears a wedding ring and it takes five events for the original duckings to realise who House’s spouse is
he goes to another school - Galileoleo: again the original ducklings thing House is pulling a prank when he shows up with a wedding ring, they can’t believe House could get- and let along stay- married, especially since hi supposed spouse is working at another hospital
let it slip - zlicxn: it’s Christmas time, House slips on ice, gets a concussion and in his confused state lets the original ducklings know he’s in a relationship. They’re then bet on who they think he’s planning to propose to (spoiler; I kind of think Cameron ruined his proposal but House gets his yes so it's all good in the end, hehe)
An Essay On Stupidity - DumpsterBeagle: House and Wilson have been married for about a year but the original ducklings hasn’t picked it up yet so House starts to play around with them, with Wilson kind of in on it. They hang out with Cuddy outside of work and the ducklings thing Thirteen (who’s not really Thirteen to them because they don’t know her) is House’s wife
Expect the Unexpected - housethemd (Whiskeyrose1): short and sweet; series 5 ducklings are startled by House showing up at work with two children
Base Assumption - AmTheDreamer: House, Wilson and Cuddy think the original ducklings are idiots because how haven't they noticed that Wilson is House’s husband- since about a decked back (so, so funny!)
Here We Go Again - AmTheDreamer: follow-up to Base Assumption, now it’s the new ducklings turn to try and figure out who their boss is married to, including some hurt/comfort as well

Awful Coffee Creamer And Velvet Boxes - FandomsAreMyFuel: the new ducklings trying to figure out the nature of House’s relationship to Wilson (spoiler: they both propose to each other)
Goes the Neighborhood - Dee_Laundry: Wilson opens the door at the address HR has told the new ducklings (+news to Foreman too) House lives, tinted with a tiny bit of angst maybe? But very cute still
betting pool - eating_custardinbed: the ducklings and more or less everyone else at the hospital eventually learning about House and Wilson’s relationship, a bit angsty because of House’s canon typically self destructiveness, worried Wilson because he loves him
(Added 15/05-25)
Witness, Witness - SkyeBean: (Wilson work at Princeton General at the start of the fic) the original ducklings not being aware of House's relationship with Wilson, but in a longfic; soo good! And I knew it would be a high quality one even from the first few paragraphs! And an incredibly satisfying end
Sweet Weather and Peacock Feathers - Kielykao: the original ducklings finds a ten year old girl in House's office/diagnostics conference room who seems to know both House and Wilson; she was such a lovely character and I loved Camerons confusion through it all
Bonus(es) that kind of fits the brief:
The Line of Thoughts - tevinterimperium: House thinks he and Wilson should pretend to be dating after the original ducklings asked too many investigative questions about House’s dating life. They don’t believe it at first, but slowly get more and more convince at the same time as House and Wilson realise things about themselves
(Added 31/03-25)
House's team freaks out over a ring - thinasadlme: Under the bonus category because Hilson is only implied (but the author has tagged it as both house/wilson and house/wilson (implied)
Oh, There Was Love in So Many Things - FandomsAreMyFuel: role reversal-au; also, kind of, or I choose to view it like it’s the Ducklings fiding out about them, or at least the original ducklings seeing another softer side of House for the first time
And if you've got any more, please do share and help me expand the list!
