Warnings: Please watch every Heroes episode ever, I cover a lot of ground with these.

Word Count: I go over the drabble-limit once. Sorry.
A/N: I can’t do that cool: click-here-and-it-takes-you-to-the-fic, so I’m just posting ONE link and you’ll have to sift through, because I’m not cool and tech-savy like you guys.
It’s mostly Mylar, because it's from the huge, soul-sucking challenge over on Mylar fic. .
Prompt #: 01 Barefoot.
Pairing: Claire/Monica
Rating: PG-13-ish
Warnings: my atrocious femslash.
Summary: Somebody’s got a secret …
Word Count: 129
Claire sighed slowly, keeping her eyes closed: for once, she wasn’t scared about waking up in a strange bed. She knew exactly where she was, and she wanted to savor this wonderful, fuzzy feeling of security.
“Morning sunshine …”
Claire grinned, eyes still shut: Monica always called her ‘sunshine’ because of her golden hair …
She shivered. Monica was running her hand down Claire’s leg, sending wonderful sensations up Claire’s body …
Suddenly Claire’s eyes snapped open. “No!” she sat up and jerked her legs to her chest.
Monica raised her eyebrows. “What?” her hand darted out lighting fast and danced across the sole of her girlfriend’s foot. “That?” she smirked.
Claire shrieked and scrambled out of reach.
Monica laughed so hard she fell out of bed:
“You’re ticklish!”
Prompt #: 02 Need.
Pairing: Mylar
Rating: PG-13 (to be safe)
Warnings: Death
Summary: Sylar gingerly runs a hand through Mohinder’s curly hair, glancing at the tombstone …
Word Count: 220
Breathless, heart pounding, clocks ticking in his head: found him.
He meant to say something sarcastic and teasing, to goad the other man, belittle him, perhaps something about his father or how idiotic he was for a genetics professor.
But the sight of him: sitting on the ground before a grave, beautiful face stained with tears, sobs wracking his body – is so jarring that all thoughts of murderous revenge are forgotten.
He can’t break this silence – one look at the tombstone tells him that speech is out of the question.
What should he do? He can’t leave Mohinder alone in this state …
Slowly, Sylar sinks down next to him, not daring to meet his eyes, terrified of making things worse.
After a few minutes, Mohinder leans slightly and rests his head on Sylar’s shoulder.
Feeling awkward, Sylar raises his arm and pats the other man on the shoulder.
And all of the sudden Mohinder is in his arms, sobbing onto his chest and clinging to his jacket like a drowning man to a life-preserver.
Sylar gingerly runs a hand through Mohinder’s curly hair, glancing at the tombstone:
Molly Evangeline Walker
1996 – 2008
Why, when he hadn’t killed the girl …
Why, when he hadn’t killed Mohinder as he had intended to …
Why did he suddenly feel …
Complete?
Prompt #: 04 Heal.
Pairing: Kiro
Rating: PG-13-sih
Warnings: I’ve never written Kiro before, please excuse me …
Summary: The blond man lies under the bed …
Word Count: 280 (sorry)
The blond man lies under the bed, arms wrapped around himself, taking in great gasps of air and keeping his eyes shut tight.
Hiro sighs. Kensai … Adam … has been like this since yesterday, since wondering how many times Kensai … Adam had died in that coffin from suffocation during the past three weeks had become too much to bear.
“Hi … ro?”
Hiro jumps slightly and ducks down, meeting Adam’s wide, terrified eyes.
“So … you’re actu-ally … going to … kill me out-right?” the ghost of a smile flits across his pale face before he spasms slightly and tears well up in his blue eyes.
“Kensai!” with a sickening jolt Hiro realizes that his eyes are beginning to blur.
Hiro crawls under the bed, drags Adam out into the middle of the room, and staggers to his feet. Adam forces himself to his knees and closes his eyes again as Hiro reaches for the sword.
The symbol leaps out at him accusingly. You were more than a friend to me …
He can’t do this: he’s not a killer … or is he? How many times did Adam die in that coffin?
Hiro kneels down in front of Adam and places his hands on the man’s shoulders. Adam opens his eyes, confused.
“You’ve suffered enough.” Hiro says. Then, surprising even himself, he plunges forward and kisses Adam’s dry, chapped lips.
Time doesn’t stop … and within seconds Hiro realizes that Adam might not feel like that and jerks backward: so embarrassed he wants nothing more than to teleport away.
Adam seizes Hiro’s shoulders and resumes the kiss, accidentally knocking them both to the floor.
Hiro doesn’t notice.
Prompt #: 05 Carpet.
Pairing: Plaude
Rating: PG
Warnings: none.
Summary: Yer all gonna die in a blaze of glory, so what’s the bloody point of sitting down fer tea?
Word Count: 220
Peter creeps out of his bedroom, fists clenched defensively, mentally gearing up telekinesis to ward off whoever is in his apartment at two in the morning.
He nearly jumps out of his skin. An all-too-familiar form wrapped in a grungy overcoat is lying on the living-room floor: asleep and snoring slightly.
Why is Claude here? Peter had tracked down the invisible man shortly after Nathan’s assassination. The invisible man had been reluctant, but now he’s passing information about the Company to Peter and his cohorts.
Apart from tense meetings with Peter (alone, never anyone else) Claude has been keeping his distance as usual, insisting that “Yer all gonna die in a blaze of glory, so what’s the bloody point of sitting down fer tea?”
Peter cocks his head to the side, considering the sleeping Englishman. Claude knows that there’s a spare bedroom (“How’s a sodding hospice nurse afford a bloody mansion?”) and the couch isn’t exactly hiding sneakily in the shadows.
Then, it hits him: Claude doesn’t want to rely on Peter. He’s made that perfectly clear whenever Peter offers him food, or money, or the spare bedroom when it gets particularly chilly at night.
Sighing, Peter grabs the blanket from the glaringly-obvious couch and drapes it over the invisible man sleeping on his carpet before staggering back to bed.
Prompt #: 07 Shinbones.
Pairing: Claire/May
Rating: R (to be safe)
Warnings: my atrocious femslash.
Summary: You’ve got nice legs …
Word Count: 167
Claire traced a finger along her leg, recalling all the times she’d broken it. Mostly experiments, but sometimes running from the Company or Sylar.
She shivered. Sylar. He thought she was too well-protected and hadn’t come after her for a year, but still …
Claire tried to think of happier things. Like May, the Captain of the Squad.
“You’ve got nice legs …”
Claire smiled. Sweet May had a secret of her own, which she’d made very clear one afternoon in the locker rooms when everyone else had gone home.
“I really like you, Claire …”
Claire had gone out with Brody and West because that was what girls did in high-school. West was nice and all, but she’d made-out with him because it made her feel normal. It was just as easy to pretend she liked him as it was to pretend her last name was ‘Butler’ and she couldn’t regrow a toe.
“Have you come out to your parents yet?”
Claire snorted: lucky May …
Prompt #: 08 Undertones.
Pairing: Mylar
Rating: PG-13-ish
Warnings: Molly angst. She’s my outlet, you see …
Summary: She wanted to be like other girls at school …
Word Count: 193
Molly concentrated on her drawing, trying to clear her head.
She wanted to be like other girls at school: giggling about boys, doing each other’s hair, worrying about homework, and getting iPhones.
Instead she worried about monster-men coming to kill her and a man who could explode, and if the kids at school would act like people in The 4400 if they found out about her ability.
Then there was the ‘big secret’ that she couldn’t talk to anyone but Mohinder about, and that usually led to terrible fights.
Why couldn’t Mohinder be like other dads? As if Molly needed one more issue to have roiling around in her head!
Well, Sarah at school had two dads … and Andy had two moms … but that was different. Sarah’s dad’s partner hadn’t killed Sarah’s mom, and ditto with Andy …
“Molly?”
Molly looked up. Mohinder was wearing a fancy suit and hovering in her doorway.
“I’m going out, Claire is going to watch you until I get back, ok?”
Molly smiled sunily. “Yeah, see you later!” she gave a little wave.
Mohinder smiled back and left.
The crayon in Molly’s hand snapped in two.
Prompt #: 11 Closet.
Pairing: any you want. Mylar could work …
Rating: PG I guess …
Warnings: Molly angst. She’s my outlet.
Summary: Molly wondered where this ‘closet’ was …
Word Count: 196
Molly wondered where this ‘closet’ was and why some people were hiding it in and some people burst out of it with lots of noise and fuss.
Someone at school had shown her a Chris Crocker video that talked about it, and that had made her laugh, but she didn’t understand some of the jokes. And wouldn’t it be really crowded and uncomfortable in that Closet? Particularly if all the guys in there were pretending that they didn’t like men and wouldn’t want to touch each other?
Molly sighed. Mohinder had explained to her that people in this Closet were very sad on the inside, so sad that they were sick. Molly knew what that felt like, after her parents were murdered her insides had ached, but then she’d talked to a nice lady in the afternoons, and after the ache was only there at certain times.
Molly wanted to knock on the door of this Closet and tell everyone in there that she didn’t care that they liked men and that they should all come outside and ignore the stupid people out here.
Molly also wanted to lock all the stupid people inside that Closet.
Prompt #: 12 Mirror.
Pairing: Kiro, Plaude, Adam/Claude (stop looking at me like that!)
Rating: R
Warnings: angst and depression.
Summary: Both have been betrayed by younger, idealistic, naive men …
Word Count: 201
Looking at this man is like looking into a mirror.
They’re both relatively attractive by society’s standards, both bear the scars of traumatic pasts (though on Adam’s part the scars are all on the inside), both were born in
But, most importantly, both have been betrayed by younger, idealistic, naive men who thought they should be ‘heroes’ because of what they can do.
Eventually, as their ‘relationship’ grows deeper, Adam finds himself becoming jealous of Peter: more often than not it’s the youngest Petrelli’s name that is moaned in the night, not his own.
Then Adam reminds himself that he cries out the name of a certain time-traveler instead of the alias his lover has given him and sinks back into brooding stupor.
“If you could go back,” Adam says one day, looking up at Claude. “If you could go back and tell him, would you?”
Claude nods. “More’n anything. No offence ta you, mate,” he gives that broken smile that sloppily masks his shattered soul.
Adam wonders if he looks like that to Claude.
He wonders if he should care.
Prompt #: 16 Underneath.
Pairing: Kiro
Rating: PG-13-ish
Warnings: Kiro. It’s depressing.
Summary: Three goes into sixty twenty times …
Word Count: 133
Every night Hiro turns off all the lights in his apartment, crawls under his bed, lies flat on his back, and sees how long he can hold his breath.
At first it’s not very long: less than a minute.
So he practices. Every night.
Eventually he can last almost three minutes.
Three minutes.
Three goes into sixty twenty times.
Twenty multiplied by twenty-four is four-hundred-and-eighty.
Taking into account the time it would take to die, and then regenerate, Adam Monroe dies roughly four-hundred times every day.
He’s been down there for three weeks.
In the first day the deaths he’d died in that coffin amounted to more the years he’d lived.
Hiro thinks about this as he lies under his bed in his pitch-black apartment, holding his breath for less than three minutes.
Prompt #: 28 Death.
Pairing: Mylar
Rating: R I guess …
Warnings: crack?
Summary: Molly was buried in her Tarot card book.
Word Count: 162
“Hmmm …” Molly was buried in her Tarot card book. “Mohinder, what does ‘orgasm’ mean?”
Sylar nearly choked on his tea and stifled a grin as Mohinder became very flustered indeed.
Mohinder cleared his throat with difficultly. “Um … why … why do you ask, Molly?”
Molly held up her book. “It says here that the Death card is below The Lovers card, and that people in Shakespearian times called orgasm ‘the little death.’ So what does it mean?”
Mohinder was determinedly looking everywhere but at Molly or Sylar (who was no longer concealing his wolfish grin.)
“Erm … something we’ll talk about … when you’re older.” Mohinder finally finished.
Molly scowled and returned to her book. “Yeah, just like ‘oral sex.’ I had to ask Claire about that …”
Sylar could contain himself no longer. He spat tea all over the table, roaring with laughter.
“Oh shut up, you!” Mohinder snapped, grabbing Molly’s book and throwing it at the former serial-killer.
Prompt #: 35 Sensitivity.
Pairing: Plaude
Rating: PG-13 I suppose …
Warnings: English snark. I am not, never was, and never shall be English.
Summary: Peter had grown used to Claude’s snide comments and snarky attitude in the months they’d been together.
Word Count: 220
Peter had grown used to Claude’s snide comments and snarky attitude in the months they’d been together. He knew now that insults about his hair or appearance were just Claude’s way of saying he was looking at Peter with interest. Now, whenever Claude said something scathing, Peter beamed and snuggled up against his boyfriend, saying “awww!” Claude seemed to like this.
Of course, Claude’s remarks towards other people were meant to be sarcastic and/or cynical, not sweet-nothings. Claude reserved rather impressive, insulting speeches for certain individuals: Noah Bennet, for example. Peter understood their ‘morally gray’ past and let this slide, but sometimes he commented when he felt that his invisible man had gone a little too far.
“Claude …” he chastised as Matt stormed off in a huff. “You shouldn’t say stuff like that!”
“Why not?” Claude cocked his head to the side. “The man’s wife divorced him and then he shacked up with another bloke! What do ya expect me ta say?”
Peter made an exasperated noise. “You know what I mean! You’re just so …” he flailed for a word.
“Honest? Blunt?” Claude offered.
“Insensitive!” Peter yelped
Claude raised his eyebrows, then seized the empath and swung him down into an epic, passionate, romantic kiss.
When they came up for air, Claude smirked:
“Sensitive enough for ya, pup?”
Prompt #: 40 Faulty reasoning
Pairings: Kiro, Hando, Chiro.
Rating: PG-13-ish
Warnings: angst and depressing stuff.
Summary: He’d long since given up on love.
Word Count: 184
He’d long since given up on love.
Ando was destined to die, thankfully the truck in the fifties had made it quick.
Charlie was surrounded by some kind of timeline-oddity: she had to die, there was simply no way to prevent it.
Adam … Kensai … if only Hiro had gone to the grave an hour earlier, then he could have beat that woman to it and there would have been no reason for all this death and destruction and now he’d never have a chance to tell Adam/Kensai …
No, it was too late.
Too late … impossible … destiny …
Now there was only him, and the sword, and more death.
During his journeys his faith in the stories his father had told him as a child had faded slightly, but he’d always thought that if he saved the world and killed the ‘bad guy’ and did the right thing, he’d have at least one ‘true love.’
Now he knew: the select few who attained ‘love’ seldom deserved it; everyone else got left in the dust.
He’d been stupid to believe otherwise.
Prompts: #42 Frankenstein
Pairing: vague Mylar
Rating: PG-13-ish
Warnings: awesome teenage Gothic artist Molly.
Summary: Claire, Monica, Molly, and Micah were playing ‘Who’s your Hero?’ in the living room.
Word Count: 236
It was another late night at
“Mary Shelly.” Molly said, then considered. “Wait … her or Edgar Allen Poe …” she giggled and held up her sketchbook, displaying a page with an elaborate ink sketch of a raven perched atop a gallows.
Claire sighed and turned to the bespectacled boy sitting on the end of the sofa. “What about you, Micah?”
“Hana Giteleman.” he said automatically.
“Evermore …” Molly muttered, adding more detail to a drawing of Frankenstein’s monster (who looked an awful lot like Sylar) being brought to life by Dr. Frankenstein (who looked suspiciously like the man in the old photographs of Chandra Suresh.)
Sophie – Molly’s best friend – had convinced her to submit her comic book series to Ninth Wonders a few months ago. They’d accepted it and wanted more, already Molly was seeing copies of He Can See Me, the first in a series she was calling ‘Nightmare Land’ in newsstands around the city. The series was a gothic take on the events that had taken place since her parents had been murdered.
Molly smirked, finishing with Frankenstein and flipping the page to the cover of an upcoming issue: the villain of
Prompt #: 31 Rolex.
Pairing: Mylar (funky Mylar)
Rating: PG-13-ish
Warnings:
Summary: Rolex Man, Rolex Man, doing the things that a Rolex can …
Word Count: 233
Mr. Rolex paused atop the building, listening to the city: thrums of shadow-taxis, wolf-whistles and catcalls from the clubs down the road, sounds of the typical gang-wars in the alleys …
There! That heartbeat … that distinct heartbeat …
Mr. Rolex leapt off the building and landed lightly thirty-stories down. He hurried down the road, turned a corner, and sped up. Not running, never running, he was always precisely on time, right on schedule.
His mother’s nursery rhyme suddenly drifted though his constantly ticking brain. Tick-tock man, in a tick-tock-house …
Mr. Rolex shook his head sharply and rounded the last corner. There was the owner of the heartbeat that Mr. Rolex had memorized on the spot: Naveen Indras.
He hadn’t noticed Mr. Rolex yet – lurking in the shadows, eyes glinting with anticipation – but soon he would.
Mr. Rolex was still not quite sure what he was going to do with Naveen Indras yet, but he was certain the idea would arrive right on schedule …
***
“Molly!”
Molly jumped. Thankfully her pencil was no longer touching the page, or she would have cut a jagged scar across the page. She turned to the doorway. “Yeah, dad?”
“Dinner with the Petrellis in half an hour!”
“Right!” Molly called back, eagerly turning back to her drawing. Mr. Rolex had plans for Naveen Indras, plans that would take a lot longer than half and hour.
Prompt #: 43 Obscurity.
Pairing: Plaude
Rating: PG-13 for English swears.
Warnings: English snark. I am not, never was, and never shall be English.
Summary: Claude liked his power …
Word Count: 208
Claude liked his power. He hated dealing with the monotonous, never-ending encounters with people. They all wanted to use you, they all wanted something from you. If you didn’t want to give it to them, they took it anyway. Life was better alone, far, far better, and much less painful.
That is, until he came along.
Puppy-eyes, crooked mouth, naiveté bent on setting a record: the perfect recipe for sodding trouble with a capital ‘T’ and underlined twice in red.
The kid insisted that ‘they’ had to stop the explosion ‘together,’ not realizing that Claude hadn’t used those terms since a certain man with horn-rimmed glasses invited him over for Sunday dinner.
Still, Claude had tried to ‘help’ by knocking some sense into the boy. This had actually gone pretty well until that man-with-the-horn-rimmed-glasses and his new sidekick ‘Silent Man’ showed up and everything went to hell in a hand-basket.
In the following months Claude skulked around, trying to resume his old life, but it wasn’t working. Sometimes he forgot to stay invisible and was nearly arrested. It was that damn kid with the puppy-eyes, he’d done something to Claude, and Claude wanted him to un-do it.
He couldn’t fade back into obscurity, Peter Petrelli wouldn’t let him.
Prompt #: 48 Zombiepocalypse.
Pairing: Mylar, perhaps Noah/Claude if ya squint.
Rating: PG-13-ish
Warnings: Zombies.
Summary: Sylar, Mohinder, and Molly were running through a world of chaos …
Word Count: 212
Sylar, Mohinder, and Molly were running through a world of chaos:
Down a corridor Claire the cheerleader was struggling with three zombies while her foster-father stood back-to-back with his former partner, the invisible man, shooting at random with stolen Company guns.
A few halls down they found Lyle, Claire’s brother, wildly swinging a machete – where did he get that? – while Nathan crouched behind a barricade, firing a shotgun into the groaning mass of living dead.
Peter Petrelli was smack in the middle of a horde, slicing and burning and … electrifying?
Mohinder gasped and saw Elle: streaked with blood and giggling psychotically – fighting side by side with Peter: Bob – or, pieces of Bob – lay at her feet.
Mohinder started for them but Sylar held him back.
“No,” Sylar glared. “We’re getting out of here as soon as possible, no more stopping.” he held up his left hand – still clutching little Molly’s sweaty hand. (She was no longer frightened of him: a man who stole your brain was better than a corpse who stole your brain.)
Mohinder sighed, reloading his gun. “Fine, we’re nearly to the staircase, the helicopters are up on the roof.”
Sylar smiled, slicing open the skulls of three zombies who were blocking their path. “Lead the way, doctor …”
Prompt #: 49 Teddy bears.
Pairing: Claude/Noah
Rating: PG-13-ish
Warnings: depressing stuff.
Summary: It was Claude who had started it …
Word Count: 167
A/N: Tim Kring intended for Claude to have started the bear-thing, says so in the commentary of Episode 17, S1 …
It was Claude who had started it.
Noah had been trying to keep himself distant from little Claire, in case she ever manifested, and Claude had called him a coward and begun spending almost as much time at the Bennet household as Noah did, eating dinner with them at least twice a week and buying Claire teddy bears whenever he had a second on a Company trip.
Eventually Sandra’s queries and Claire asking “Where’s Uncle Claude?” at dinner-time became too much and Noah called the Haitian boy over.
The questions stopped. Claire thought the man who’d swung her up into a bone-crushing hug and called her ‘Claire bear’ as a little kid was her father.
Every time Noah brought Claire a bear from his ‘business trip’ he thought of Claude. A sinister secret lurked behind those adorable fuzzy faces, but even the echoing laugh of his former partner couldn’t force Noah to get rid of the bears.
Completely wiping Claude away was something too awful to consider.
Prompt #: (50 Writer's Choice) Dance.
Pairing: Mylar
Rating: PG-13-ish
Warnings: none.
Summary: It’s all a dance to Sylar …
Word Count: 119
It’s all a dance to Sylar.
Knife … gun (because rock beats scissors) … T-A-N-G-O …
Usually he leads, and Mohinder has no choice but to follow: glaring but submissive – a wallflower no longer – but sometimes Mohinder surprises him, takes the lead, and Sylar lets himself be pushed and prodded and swung about, all the while laughing inside, knowing he can regain command at any time and reveling in the illusion he’s providing Mohinder with.
Even in the early days Sylar was too captivated by the motions to dwell upon Mohinder’s death; and now the mere thought of killing the geneticist – his dance partner – is ridiculous.
By now, Mohinder must know that this is all a dance …
Right?

I love those two ... for a while she was just doodling the Frankenstien thing and then I thought 'wait, I can't end it there ... she's a comic-book artist!' and lo, there it was!
In all honestly, if you made 'Nightmare Land' an actual fic (possible series) that would be made of win, and make me a seriously happy reader.
I think I'll do that ... I've never done a really long series ... I wish I could draw ... if only blue_pholox was about ... hmm, I'll have to kidnap an artist and force them to draw because you can't WRITE a fic about a comic without art!

These are awesome. Seriously, I love them. Firstly I think it's fantastic that you actually did drabbles that included so many other characters from the Heroes-verse.
One of my absolute favourites is #16 "Underneath". I'm bowled over by the idea behind it and wish I had come up with that!
And I would love to see a follow up on the adventures of Mr. Rolex and what he plans he has in mind for Naveen Indras.
I like the Molly angst of "Undertones" and the humour behind "Closet".
And "Dance" earns my total love. What a perfect rendering of Mohinder/Sylar and the last line where Sylar thinks that Mohinder must surely know how their dance goes (that Mohinder will never die by Sylar's hands).
You totally rocked these.

What do you think I've been doing for the past week besides sleeping, dancing, going to school, and keeping ahead of the overflow of drabbles?
These are awesome. Seriously, I love them. Firstly I think it's fantastic that you actually did drabbles that included so many other characters from the Heroes-verse.
Thank you so very much. It means a lot to hear that from an author such as yourself. *so honored* And I just write fics with a lot of characters. It's difficult to keep it to one for me ...
One of my absolute favourites is #16 "Underneath". I'm bowled over by the idea behind it and wish I had come up with that!
*blushes* I've been spending far too much time wondering how many times Adam dies in a day ... aimisan STILL hasn't seen the finale so I can't talk to her about it, which makes it even worse!
And I would love to see a follow up on the adventures of Mr. Rolex and what he plans he has in mind for Naveen Indras.
Hee hee hee ... I'm ploting that right now! I need to kidnap an artist to do some art for the series (yes, LONG series!) though ... know anyone I can threaten/beg?
I like the Molly angst of "Undertones" and the humour behind "Closet".
Thank you. Those are some of my favorites because those are written from my heart.
And "Dance" earns my total love. What a perfect rendering of Mohinder/Sylar and the last line where Sylar thinks that Mohinder must surely know how their dance goes (that Mohinder will never die by Sylar's hands).
Hee ... I've had that in my head for weeks ... mostly because ballroom classes have started up again! Yahoo!
You totally rocked these.

Loved 2 and 11; really liked the Claude/Adam one, that's a great idea that I might even have to...consider writing about.
Liked "Obscurity" a great deal as well.
But I have to say, "Underneath" is, for me, the best; very Hiro, very sad, very true. Great stuff.

Poor you! Well, then again, Plaude is generally a lot nicer than Mylar, and DEFINATELY nicer than Kiro and Kiro is a lot like Plaude (nicknames, mentors, depressing stuff) ...
Loved 2 and 11;
2 was very depressing, whenever I put characters in a graveyard, something awful happens. 11 is one of my favs ...
really liked the Claude/Adam one, that's a great idea that I might even have to...consider writing about.
Hee ... good! *loves inspiring/spurring on slash*
Liked "Obscurity" a great deal as well.
I realized I needed to write more Plaude so I could post the linky at petereandclaude ... I kinda wrote it in a rush ...

YES! future!Hiro angst ftw!
Sometimes I'm very depressing and angsty ... it scares me sometimes ...

I series is coming up, methinks ... you wouldn't happen to know an artist I could shanghai to do art for the series, would you?
Zombies! YES! OMFG YES! Zombies make everything better.
Hee, yes they do! They also make Molly trust Sylar! EVERYONE WINS! (Except the red shirts, but they get bad lines ...)
And Nathan/shotgun = OTP.
Hell yeah! Shotguns are damn sexy!
Argh. ARgh. Noah making the Haitian wipse Claude from his family's memories is awful. Fucking painful. Excellent.
Thank you. That was a hard one to write. But the never-filmed dinner-scene irks me. I wish they'd filmed it ... for the slashers ...
My favorite is definitely Dance. I love the characterization. Also, my favorite cracky Mylar song is "Masochism Tango"
I love that one a LOT. Spike talking to Buffy in S5 about killing the slayers heavily influenced that:
Buffy: You think we're dancing?
Spike: All we've ever done is dance.
COME ON! There's this Mylar/Spuffy crossover that I've been meaning to write for a while now ...
Of course I had to look up that song on youtube. *sporfleDIEZ* thank you! SUCH a Mylar song!

Not the mention the actual content of aforementioned Kiro - Kensei hiding under the bed, Hiro's somewhat heartbreaking "Kensei...Adam"s...oh my god, hang on, I've just noticed the other Kiro drabble...
...and yes, I officially have tears in my eyes.
Hiro thinks about this as he lies under his bed in his pitch-black apartment, holding his breath for less than three minutes.
Hiro, you -!
ADAM/CLAUDE!!! *flails* Oh my god, I love it. I love the emo. I love the thought of both of those Brittish accents. Oh, my god, *FLAIL*.
And all the Mylar drabbles? They are all simply DELICIOUS.

Oh good! It's been ages since I attempted a new pairing ... I was so nervous!

Great Scot! *huggles you* It's ok, dear! *secretly pleased* It's gonna be ok, Adam and Hiro will someday push aside the Yaeko-thing and the kill-the-whole-world thing and hug, they've GOT to ... (I made someone CRY! WOW!)
Hiro, you -!
*blinks* Anger? Sadness? What?
ADAM/CLAUDE!!! *flails* Oh my god, I love it. I love the emo. I love the thought of both of those Brittish accents. Oh, my god, *FLAIL*.
Bahahahahhaha, British accents slay me too! *grinz*
And all the Mylar drabbles? They are all simply DELICIOUS.

Adam/Claude...So... I'm not the only one who'd considered that one? In my mind, Claude would be practically a baby at the time (teens, probably), but I've never gotten further than that, other than Adam's sadism fits right into my vague ideas of how Claude might have been "recruited" by the Company.
I found this an interesting symmetry:
Claude/Peter ends: [Claude] couldn’t fade back into obscurity, Peter Petrelli wouldn’t let him.
Claude/Bennet ends: Completely wiping Claude away was something too awful to consider.
Intentional? Meta? (ie, for a character who was only in the show for about 15 minutes total time, he made a pretty big impact!)

Whoa, envy! *overjoyed* I HAVE been writing them since the challenge began ... please don't be envious ...
Adam/Claude...So... I'm not the only one who'd considered that one?
Apparently not! (I hath a STRANGE mind ...)

Actually no! Wow ... I hadn't realized ... that's cool! Thanks for pointing that out!

Mr. Rolex had plans for Naveen Indras, plans that would take a lot longer than half and hour. <---*gigglesnorts*
And I love Molly in these. Growing up to be a 'gothic' teenage artist, it would totally happen. Me? I wanna see her be a lesbian, but that'd because I'm a slash obsessed freak. And Claire would be so much more interesting if she was on the other team, ya know? >

#5 made me really sad for Claude. The man has such strong trust issues that this scenario seems completely plausible.
When I saw the Adam/Claude pairing I started grinning. You made the pairing believable in so few words.
I really like how Claude came up with the idea for Claire's teddy bears. And Noah's unwillingness to erase him from his memory feels so true, as does Claude's inability to forget Peter in #43. These are two of my favorite pairings, by the way.
no subject
I was busy.
I really like the Kiro ones, especially #4. The whole situation is so heartbreaking, especially Kensei's reaction to Hiro.
Thank you! That's wonderful to hear, especially from an author such as yourself!

It's practically canon ... I mean, if they'd filmed that scene ... *kicks Tim Kring*
And Noah's unwillingness to erase him from his memory feels so true, as does Claude's inability to forget Peter in #43.
I didn't see the symetry until someone pointed it out *headdesk*
These are two of my favorite pairings, by the way.
I love Plaude and Past Claude/Noah ... they're just so perfect and angsty!

Barefoot: Great way to start off the drabbles. I thought this was really cute, and I love the idea of Claire and Monica because it’s such a cute, fluffy ship. I think you should give yourself more credit in writing femmeslash because you have a knack for it and I hope you keep writing it in the future ;)
Need: Angsty Mylar! This one is great because it includes characterization, emotion, and the hurt/comfort technique which I think you handled very well. I like that, at first, Sylar wanted to emotionally kick Mohinder while he was down, but then he stopped and helped Mohinder grieve for his loss. I also like that you revealed that Sylar hadn’t killed Molly (because that would just be horrible!) and the last few lines really added a depth to Sylar’s psyche that I think is always there, but is something he would never admit to himself: he needs Mohinder, and without him he feels incomplete.
Heal: Ah, some Kiro! I think this one is flawless; I love that you expanded on Hiro’s feelings for Adam and that you explained that he second-guessed himself and took Adam out of the grave. Your take on what would have happened to Adam is also very interesting; that he wouldn’t just sit there in the grave, but he would keep dying, over and over again from lack of oxygen. Chilling, but I thought it was a great twist. I like that Adam was under Hiro’s bed. At first, I thought this was a dream, and maybe that was your intent but I took this as a future AU fic – you know that I have a massive fixation on those, lol. Again, I really like this one. I hope you write more of this ship in the future.
Carpet: You gave so much background information on what happened to Claude and the relationship between himself and Peter, but it was done in just a few paragraphs, which I found impressive. I really like the bit at the end when Peter puts the blanket over Claude; it was a good way of showing how Peter feels about his mentor.
Shinbones: Ooh, I really wanted to see something happen between Claire and May on the show; luckily you went with it in this drabble! Short, sweet, and all around very well-written.
Undertones: You weren’t kidding when you said that you used Molly for your angst outlet! I like your characterization of her, how you got into her head, and how you made her seem externally fine when she’s thinking so much about different things. The crayon snapping in half at the end is a good visual, great way to end the drabble also.
Mirror: This is awesome, because I love the never-ending parallels between the characters, and I like the experimenting with Claude and Adam here. You really do get all of these characters, and I admire your ability to write for ships other than just Mylar.
Underneath: Great visual of Hiro trying to hold his breath; I love the theme of numbers and how you related them to Adam dying. This one is really chilling, but it’s also one of my favorite drabbles.
Death: LOL, I’d always wondered why people called it “the little death.” I liked this one, purely because of the straight up Mywalker crack. Great job!
Sensitivity: Oh, I love Claude. And although I ship him more with Bennet than Peter, you make it work well in these drabbles; this one was especially entertaining and cute.
Faulty Reasoning: I feel really bad for Hiro in this one *pets him*. Poor guy, all this bad stuff keeps happening to him :( However, I do like how you tied in the death to destiny and you gave this a very dismal tone, which I don’t usually associate with Hiro. There’s a loooot of potential for angst with that guy, and you helped me realize it in these fics.
Frankenstein: This one made me LOL simply because of the image of Molly making Frankenstein look like Sylar. I like the bit about her drawing comic-books at the end as well, and what else she had drawn.
Rolex: Hmm, this is an interesting take on the Mylar by seeing it through Molly’s comic. I like how this goes along with the previous drabble and how you gave them different nicknames in the comic. Very meta, IMO.

*so pleased I'm thrumming*
I like that, at first, Sylar wanted to emotionally kick Mohinder while he was down, but then he stopped and helped Mohinder grieve for his loss.
That's Spike S5 of Buffy barging in ...
I also like that you revealed that Sylar hadn’t killed Molly (because that would just be horrible!)
Yeah, I HATE IT when Sylar kills Molly ... 'my' Sylar would never do that ...
Heal: Ah, some Kiro! I think this one is flawless
*beet red*
I like that Adam was under Hiro’s bed.
Me too. I love it when I surprise myself ...
Carpet: You gave so much background information on what happened to Claude and the relationship between himself and Peter, but it was done in just a few paragraphs, which I found impressive.
I love Plaude way too much ...
Shinbones
Yeah, that was one of the first ones I wrote ...
You weren’t kidding when you said that you used Molly for your angst outlet! I like your characterization of her, how you got into her head, and how you made her seem externally fine when she’s thinking so much about different things.
Personally I've never resented my gay father but I believe Molly would think like this ...
You really do get all of these characters, and I admire your ability to write for ships other than just Mylar.
*SQUEE* OMG I LOVE YOU right now ...
I liked this one, purely because of the straight up Mywalker crack.
Heh, that WAS fun ... we don't get much of it these days ...
Oh, I love Claude.
Don't we all ...
And although I ship him more with Bennet than Peter
I like both pairings equally I think ...
I feel really bad for Hiro in this one *pets him*.
I put him through hell ... *huggles him*
There’s a loooot of potential for angst with that guy, and you helped me realize it in these fics.
Hurrah?
More of 'Nightmare Land' is coming in the next month ... you wouldn't happen to know a good artist, would you?

Zombiepocalypse: First off, I looooove that Lyle is swinging a machete around here. I also love how all the characters have banded together to fight off the zombies, but Sylar isn’t willing to risk Molly or Mohinder during the struggle. This is an awesome “what if?” take on the prompt.
Teddy Bears: Yay, Claude/Noah! Okay, at first I read one of the lines as ”Noah called the Haitian boy lover” *facepalm* I thought you’d find that amusing. Anyways, I like how you tied this one in to the “sort of/kind of” canon; that Claude was the family’s close friend and was closer to Claire than Noah was – until Noah shot him :P It also makes sense that Noah wouldn’t get rid of the bears, and I like that you explained why he kept giving them to Claire.
Dance: This one is, without a doubt, my favorite drabble. I love how you incorporated the dancing theme here, the “rock beats scissors” line, and just… everything about this is MADE OF WIN. *glomps you* I think all of these are fantastic, but this one just goes above and beyond what I look for in a Mylar fic, and words can’t really express how terrific I think this is.
Whew, I’m finally done! I hope to see some more drabbles from you in the future, because these were all incredibly wonderful.
no subject
Me too! Because THAT will be the reason for him coming back to the show someday! That and/or getting revenge on Noah ...
First off, I looooove that Lyle is swinging a machete around here.
Hee, that poor boy is so neglected ... that's why I gave him a BADASS MACHETE!
I also love how all the characters have banded together to fight off the zombies, but Sylar isn’t willing to risk Molly or Mohinder during the struggle. This is an awesome “what if?” take on the prompt.
Hee, thank you very much! Yeah, Sylar doesn't give a damn about everyone else, but he won't let the undead take his Mo-Mo or kill his Mo-Mo's daughter ...
Okay, at first I read one of the lines as ”Noah called the Haitian boy lover” *facepalm* I thought you’d find that amusing.
DO NOT SCARE ME LIKE THAT AGAIN! I thought I'd written a typo! *calms down* Yes, that IS funny ...
Anyways, I like how you tied this one in to the “sort of/kind of” canon; that Claude was the family’s close friend and was closer to Claire than Noah was – until Noah shot him :P
In my mind him being a friend-of-the-family IS canon even if they didn't film it ... maybe they'll do graphic novels on it? Once Hana and Drucker and Matt (not the Matt on the show, another Matt who Elle's got wrapped around her cute little finger) go away and stop freaking me out.
This one is, without a doubt, my favorite drabble.
WOW. I love that one far too much but ... WOW.
I love how you incorporated the dancing theme here
Ballroom started up again this month ...
the “rock beats scissors” line
That was in my head for ages ...
everything about this is MADE OF WIN. *glomps you* I think all of these are fantastic, but this one just goes above and beyond what I look for in a Mylar fic, and words can’t really express how terrific I think this is.
Whoa! *is glomped* This has been such a FANTASTIC day! I learned to make mac-and-cheese (homemade, not box) and saw REALLY HOT teaser for Torchwood (OMG I DANCED WITH FANGIRL JOY FOR FIFTEEN MINUTES IN FRONT OF MANY PEOPLE) and now THIS ... wow.
Whew, I’m finally done! I hope to see some more drabbles from you in the future, because these were all incredibly wonderful.
I don't think the next ones will be 'incredibly wonderful' but I want to have more by this weekend ...

Undertones- haha. XD. Cute. Love Moho in a suit, and molly being all PO'd was a scenario I'm still just floored by the ingenious concept of. why did I think of that? oh yeah, cause I'm a mywalker whore ^_^
seriously awesome though.
Death- this was just...awkward. Cause um, I totally asked my dad what an orgasm was when I was little. drudging up severely uncomfortable memories here.....
but really, it's awesome. your embarrrassed moho was so CUTE!! and you totally had characterization down for like, the most bizarre situation ever!! love it!!!!!
Closet-ZOMG. you are win. win. win. win. win.
seriously, I was laughing so hard this friend of mine asked if I was okay, and I pointed at the screen and she read it and then SHE was laughing super hard and then librarian was all, "are you okay?" and Katelin's all, "no, this girl is SO FUNNY!" and yeah, that about sums it up.
GOOD ON YOU!!!!

I'm sorry for that ... but I recently flicked through my Tarot book and I didn't want my 'death' prompt to be angsty like everyone else's ...

Yahooo! I'm famous! *dances* I love it when I'm funny and people die of laughter because of me ... *resurects*

Awwwww, you are too kind! *beams for the rest of the day*
Whee! I finally have time to read drabbles!
Okay, I'm not really into girl/girl slash (also don't like Claire) so much but the Barefoot drabble was just so cute. Hee! Anything involving tickling just...tickles me. XD
Need...Oh, ouch. That one just stabs me in the heart. The imagery and simplicity of it is so beautiful.
Heal: *gigglespazz* Heeheehee! That was just...so Hiro! XD Ah...It feels kind of wrong to be laughing with what state Adam had been in but I can't help it.
"Time doesn’t stop … and within seconds Hiro realizes that Adam might not feel like that and jerks backward: so embarrassed he wants nothing more than to teleport away." <--Win!
Carpet: From this I'm now starting to question whether Peter fits the description of 'puppy-dog' best...or Claude. XD Sleeping on the floor, jeez man. Guess he really doesn't care much for creature comforts.
Shinbones: Like I mentioned before, I really don't like Claire that much, or Femslash, but one thing I really liked about this drabble is how you addressed the Claire/West relationship. I didn't really 'believe' the couple on the show but your interpretation that Claire did it to feel 'normal' really kind of hits home. Her character is so obsessed with having a normal life that I can see her getting together with an interested guy just to live it out. (and watch as I ignore the femslash parts XD)
Undertones: Aww...Poor Molly. Actually, I've never seriously thought about all the problems she must face with her powers and her parents having been murdered. Add Mylar into the mix, which is already messed up, and she definitely has to be one stressed out child. I hope she doesn't have problems when she gets older. :-\ *ponders*
Closet: Okay, I'm torn here. I wanted to laugh, a smile had tugged at my lips, over Molly's thoughts over the closet and then you turned it so serious by mentioning Molly's parents deaths. ^^;; That was a really nice mixture. You could have made it completely humourous but went another route. I was not expecting that...guess I should have read the 'Molly angst warning.
Mirror: Ooo! That was interesting. Adam/Claude is not a pairing I ever imagined working but you did a very good job with that one. Generally I don't ship characters who haven't had a scene together on the show (just a quirk of mine) but since Claude is 'invisible' he could be there in the scene at any time. (and look, I'm already justifying how it could work). I can also really see Adam and Claude coming up with an arrangement like that because of their love for Hiro and Peter.
Underneath: Okay, if Hiro did that in the show he would really change a lot as a person. I *knew* Adam would be dying multiple times underground but reading over what you have devised I feel really sorry for Adam. That is just a horrible, horrible fate and it's hard to imagine that Hiro really was that cruel.
Death: I'm amused that the humor fic comes with the prompt death. XD Oh man. Heehee! *gigglespazz* Any person would be flustered answering that question and it's really amusing that innocent little Molly asks the Mylar pair. Of course Sylar would smirk and want Mohinder to tell. And of course Mohinder wouldn't want to tell. The characterization here was really well done. :D

I'll have to comment on the other drabbles tomorrow. I've stayed up way later than I had planned but I'm really happy I did. These drabbles make me think about things I hadn't really taken into consideration before. ^_^ Hee! Thanks for writing!

Carpet: From this I'm now starting to question whether Peter fits the description of 'puppy-dog' best...or Claude. XD Sleeping on the floor, jeez man. Guess he really doesn't care much for creature comforts.
I was interpreting it as Claude not wanting to take advantage of Peter's apartment ... kinda like the machoistic 'I-want-a-hug-but-won't-ask-for-it' additude of the Ninth Doctor ...
but one thing I really liked about this drabble is how you addressed the Claire/West relationship. I didn't really 'believe' the couple on the show but your interpretation that Claire did it to feel 'normal' really kind of hits home. Her character is so obsessed with having a normal life that I can see her getting together with an interested guy just to live it out.
Hee, thank you! I liked that drabble very much ...
Aww...Poor Molly.
Yeah, *huggles her* I grew up with two daddies, I tend to relate with her in fics ... not that I was ever that angsty!
That was a really nice mixture. You could have made it completely humourous but went another route. I was not expecting that...guess I should have read the 'Molly angst warning.
Thank you very much. I think that is my favorite drabble ... Molly is a good outlet for me ...
Ooo! That was interesting. Adam/Claude is not a pairing I ever imagined working but you did a very good job with that one.
Thank you! I'm quite proud of that drabble ... god I miss Claude!
That is just a horrible, horrible fate and it's hard to imagine that Hiro really was that cruel.
I hope Hiro turns up to dig Adam up but finds an empty grave because 10th Wifey beat him to it ...
I'm amused that the humor fic comes with the prompt death. XD Oh man.
