Angela makes a belated effort, at least? Sorta? :D? Fat lot of good it's gonna do, though.

Dr. Sokolowski is definitely not one to let a guy assume he can't deal with the brunt of parenting!

Thanks for sticking with the story.

Heroes fanfics? What is this madness!

Man, it's really good to see this story updated. I tip my hat to you for keeping with it. I would have thrown in the towel a long time ago.

I think the alternate title for this chapter should be "'Nathan' is a creepy creeper who creeps." Seriously, when he showed up during the lunch reciting every detail from Mohinder's conversation with Maya, I had to chuckle. He's clearly not trying to be subtle and just enjoying making poor Mo uncomfortable. I wouldn't be surprised if he started listing all the things Mohinder ate in the past few days just to watch him squirm.

Also, Peter's behavior to both Emma's powers and Angela's appearance were hilarious. More so the Emma thing, because the line about being high had me giggling. (Oh Peter. You're not fooling anyone. You never did drugs. You were too much of a good noodle.) But the way he got so indignant with Angela was definitely amusing. Clearly he suspects something, but can't help being jealous either :P

I'm so retro, no?

I think it helps that the scene I drew this whole story from takes place near the end, and I really, really wanna get to it! It probably also helps that I never fell into another fandom after Heroes ended.

Honestly, when I wrote the cafeteria scene, I saw it as "Nathan" just not remembering he wasn't supposed to know Pavitra's name. It's not really a spoiler to say he himself doesn't really know what's up with his head, but he's just... going with it. Though, yeah, he's still not thinking about how Mohinder feels about his worship of Mohinder's glowing maternal visage. haha

Once again Peter almost kills people and once again his mommy's acting funny. Nobody loves him. :(

omg I remember loving this fic. I happened to check my lj flist for the first time in about a year >.> (I, like so many others, have switched to mainly AO3 for my fic) and spotted this. You should have heard my freak out. It was kinda epic. Now I'm gonna go reread and catch up on all I missed! <3

Hope you like all the lead up! :)

So excited to see this updated!

You capture the coldness in Angela so well, the way she was towards Peter... you really have your character voices down.

Still loving this, still intrigued, still hoping for more! <3

Glad you're still reading!

She had a bit more of a breakdown when I first wrote this, so I'm glad the changes I made come across as true to the character.

Thank you for commenting!

Yay an update! Fandom is completely dead, but I'm so glad you're continuing this fic. I kinda want the Sylar reveal already, but I don't want this to end.

[gaiafaye]

I'm definitely glad people are still reading. :) Thanks for coming back!

As for Sylar, we're just about there...
