OMG, this is amazing. So dark, so bleak, and yet there's that glimmer of hope - and I love that Mohinder is that source of optimism. I love how determined he is in here, that he goes out of his way to try to help the survivors, and his reaction to seeing Sylar is spot on, IMO. Their banter is one of my favorite aspects in their dynamic, and you depicted it in such an awesome way.

The ending broke my heart. I really dug how Mohinder was weighing his options, because it's really fitting for him to do so; his practical side vs. his emotional side. And I was psyching myself out for him going to Sylar and telling him to come inside, but... but... No! It's so perfect, and depressing at the same time.

Favorite lines:

"No one's special anymore," Mohinder muttered. "Everyone's too busy dying."

"Read a book," Mohinder suggested sarcastically. "I have a collection of cat stories I'd be glad to lend you, provided you leave me the hell alone."

<3 the irony in the first line, and how snarky Mohinder is in the second. God, I want to hug him and tell him it'll all be okay, even though he's already fighting to make things right already. Fantastic job on this! *Adds to memories*

aurilly deserves the most credit for the banter. She's my banter beta: "Snarkier! Snarkier!"

I'm so glad you liked it!
