I love your whole comment! That makes me grin so huge!
What inspired it? Well, waiting around for MBU. Haha. Of course my imagination ran forward to Sylar walking out of the bathroom with his towel on, Peter semi-checking him out and then ignoring him as I said, and then I fabricated that Sylar was say something taunting, Peter ignore him full force, and Sylar drop his damp towel on the arm of Peter's chair - LOL! - and Peter be left sitting there trying desperately not to react (poor guy!) knowing there's a naked Sylar rustling around behind him ... And then my mind jumped forward a bit where I started thinking that what Sylar really wanted to know was why Peter wasn't biting, wasn't taking the bait, when it was clearly good bait and clearly a sort Peter was interested in. So I thought about how Sylar would go about worming that information out of Peter, trying to find out 'why are you not jumping on my oh-so-awesome bone(s), Peter?' And then I wrote this.
That 'Some of them are paramedics' was actually the last line I put in the fic. I added it after I'd posted it, actually, going back to all three (LJ, FFN and my original) to add that line in.
Peter knew that was harsh, but at the same time I figure he's tired of Sylar's come-ons and is sort of like 'dude, figure it out - you're not getting with me until you change your tune. You don't *have* to change your tune. I'm not telling you to change your tune. But you are not giving me what I need to get hot and bothered. Your body, paired up with your offensive personality, has no chance at all. So get over it.'
Yeah, I figure Sylar has a lot he could say about Mo, but since Peter's saying he's not attracted to Mohinder, that would keep Sylar from feeling a need to jump in there and preemptively bash him. He might bash him later, though. Just because it's fun and he thinks Peter might be a receptive audience to it.
Peter was calling Sylar staring at him creepy; not calling Sylar himself creepy. But yeah, small difference.
And yeah, there at the end, poor Sylar. I thought about writing more, which was exactly what you posit, of Sylar badgering Peter about how to get a connection. But it sounded a little whiny and weak, so I figured Sylar would stop there, take a little time to process and plan. Feel free to write more if you want!
