Ranty McRant Rant. Not so much of the stupid.

Well, it's meta time again. This time it's not specific to Heroes, but it is prompted by goings-on in that fandom- specifically, the trash-talking of Mohinder Suresh, which is reaching a level where I'm actually starting to find it personally offensive. This took some doing, but the claims that he should have "heard the insincerity in [spoiler]'s

Lectures are eeeevil.

Of course, Mrs. Bennet has much less reason for a general sense of paranoia than has Mohinder, who's been spied on before (and, more importantly, remembers that.)

...also, new low in the Unreasonable Expectations stakes: Someone said he should have known the moment Sylar opened the door. And I'm like... bzuh?

(Also, I have stumbled across one other person online who can stand Mrs. Parkman! In a commentary on the last episode... "You know, I used to not like Janice, but after the drubbing she gives him about the diamonds, I think we need her around to tell him when he's doing something stupid.")

When I saw that scene my "like" of her grew to unexeptional levels. But I was thinking that a lot of people would dislike her for it, I am glad they don't <3

Oh, a lot of people do. Or, rather, they all disliked her already, so they just took that as another reason to do so. But this person didn't.

Also, the haters will complain about seeing her again, but I really want to see what she thinks of these new Matt developments!

(Also, I don't doubt the OWI will eventually try to tell Matt his kid belongs to them. Which is something that he will take amiss.)

Yeah... and she was upset enough about the stealing and lying, then he blew her off mid-argument to go meet with the Avengers and get involved in a fucking hostage situation. I have no difficulty understanding why their marriage was in trouble! And good luck finding a counselor who can deal with this.

One way or the other- whether she's wondering where he is while they go to work on him, or her life's under threat to keep him in line- I doubt she'll be happy about it.

And it doesn't have to be a matter of indebtedness, either; they're clearly not the kind of people who ask, or bother with evenhandedness. Of course, they probably wouldn't pull that out on him right away, either.

Honestly.

Think the OWI offers marriage-counseling services? I mean, it's on their account that they can't go to civilian ones.

...that would be incredibly amusing.

[acaciaonnastik]

Yeah, and now that he's on the run with Claire, that's not really an option for the Parkmans. Unfortunately for Matt.
