Title: Novelty Value Characters: Sylar, Peter Rating: PG Warnings: None Word count: 360 Setting: The Wall Summary: Sylar shares a quiet, profound moment.
"He could barely believe the previous twelve hours had happened and that here he was, in bed with the man. Peter stirred finally at the continuing, slight caresses, blinking up sleepily at him." -- I loved these two sentences, the first one for reasons I don't know, the second because Peter waking up and blinking sleepily is just the cutest freakin' image.
"Peter had stripped away one defense after another until he felt more naked than he’d ever been. Sylar found himself being self-conscious at every turn and wildly insecure." -- Wow. Isn't that amazing, how fast those little things get to Sylar? I hadn't thought of that, I guess, how fast being accepted for sex and cuddling/sleeping afterwards would get to him, but you nailed it, I think. That's probably a first for him, too, getting to sleep with someone after sex. Strangely, I don't think he'd be doing a whole lot of sleeping (too paranoid and too active a mind); he'd want to enjoy the experience and watch/touch Peter like we see here. Sylar wants to be good so bad, poor baby.
OMG, I love you for the thoughts you inspire. I just realized Sylar probably thinks he's incapable of causing a pleasing feeling/sensation after how long he's been a 'monster'. Pleasing someone would probably come as an honest, deep shock to him. I had him at 'oh...Peter likes this? Okay...do it again' reaction, but yours...is so much deeper and better, I love that.
"He barely restrained himself, instead laying his hand to the side of Peter’s head and hugging it to his chest as he shut his eyes, lashes wet." -- I love that image, too, so heartbreaking. Sylar hugging Peter to his chest always gets me and Peter's so sweet.
This poor guy. That would rock his world more than the sex, I think. I'm so glad he gets it and that Peter is the one to give it to him (I sound like I'm talking about a real person, don't judge me, I have a muse) and, oh, they're so cute together.
