"Hiro! You look bad ass." And Ando looks kind of lost. :(
I'm repeating this as a mantra: the sword-exchange is a promise, the sword-exchange is a promise...
(I do think we'll see Ando again. It's just plain sense. Frankly, I'm thrilled to death that they're both alive and well, and that they still have each other, even if Hiro is currently in No-Man's Land, Japan, 1671.)
I have a few Heroes OTPs, but Hiro&Ando is almost transcendent of all of that. Whether they're friends or lovers or whatever -- they just belong together.
You know, the scary thing is, I can see the argument for Sylar/Mohinder. I don't think I could ever write them, as Sylar makes me want to smash things, but there have been a lot of moments on the show where I've paused and then said, "Um...yeah. Wow." H/A is really my only Heroes pairing. "Transcendent" is a great word for them!
With Heroes I'm pretty free with pairings -- generally, I'm not a hardcore OTP'er -- but Hiro/Ando is just right. I thought Hiro was darn cute with Charlie, but I have a tendency to stick my fingers in my ears and go LA LA LA PASSING FANCY. However, if either of the boys ends up with a girl, I'll be fine provided this remains that friendship that, yes, transcends everything else. Because it's possible; I've got one of those.
Apparently, and I can't back this up with actual sources and only with what I've read people saying it, was that Sylar was originally actually supposed to be gay, but Kring changed his mind (to be honest, I'm sort of glad, because we don't need gay villains on hit shows, we really don't). So I can kind of see some of that as canon subtext with how Sylar responds to Mohinder. I can gleefully, evilly, go there with those two, but I couldn't see sunshine, lollipops, and rainbows in the end. Admittedly, I enjoy watching Sylar, but I don't know how much of that is that it's Zachary Quinto I'm enjoying, and that Quinto

(Oh, hey, no problem - if I'm helping you waste time, then I'll consider it time well spent ;) Actually, this chat is enjoyable to the point that I've been contemplating friending you; I always ask first, though.)
Sylar was supposed to be Gay? Really! That would explain some of the definite vestigial traces, then. And he and Sendhil do have some of the most amazing chemistry I've ever seen between two male actors on TV. Still, it's never a mere hotness factor that will hook me; it's usually the pairings with high emotional content, and that's definitely H/A in my book.
I think I heard rumors somewhere that there may be planned love-interests for them in S2. I suppose I have a few mixed feelings on this, although in the case of Charlie I definitely do think it was passing infatuation and Hiro really, desperately wanting to do something good (as usual). They were adorable together, I have to agree - but I can't picture anyone more adorable with Hiro than Ando.

Hee! The more the merrier. If my level of perviness doesn't scare you off. :)

Like I said, I cannot find first-source confirmation for this, but... well, it just kinda makes a LOT of sense.

Preach it!

I try so hard not to be superficial! I'm that way with my het OTPs, really, and normally with the slashy ones, but but but there are times where I just have to throw my hands up in the air and go "Dammit, they're just too hot for me!" At least they have screen time
( ... )
I wouldn't call Sylar/Mohinder shallow, though - they actually have a lot of interaction in addition to being hot, so I can see why people can produce S/M work with substance. They're just...not quite my bag, and, as I said, Sylar makes me mad more than half the time.
Yeah - the two of them being parted makes for bad circumstances, under which the screenwriter(s) might be tempted to toss in love-interests fairly quickly. Then again, if they can have Ando waiting so patiently at that diner...
I knew what I thought about Sylar from pretty early on, although my opinion on Peter varies from day to day, nearly, I kid you not. Sometimes I catch myself feeling quite fond of him, and other times, I'm just sort of thinking, okay, get off the screen, Emo-Boy, so I can get back to watching Hiro and Ando.
Yes, precedence. I'm assuming they will go with it, as having Hiro put that sword in his hands with such a weighty promise is not something to go back on, not if they collectively have half a brain left (what with Sylar still on the loose).

As soon as Hiro gets himself out of the 17th century.

( \o/ Whee! That's always a plus, of course. I enjoy perviness. )

This reassures me MUCHLY.

I think it's funny how it's like the fandom is just dead split on the issue of whether or not they like Sylar. Same with Peter.

Exactly! There's a ... what's the word I'm looking for? Precedence? They need to stick with that! :D
