But the real question is, did his friend actually do it? And if so, what was the result?

I can absolutely see kid!House daring someone to do the same kind of thing. Or lying and telling the other kid that it was fun, he'd done it himself. Heh.

Okay, I've managed the "shoes on" part and I feel somewhat more "together" (it'll help when my hair dries), so. Time for music and some kind of productivity.
