This was the episode that provoked me to first write fanfic. In honor of that, tonight I will migrate "Am I Still Nathan Petrelli?" to LJ. Woot! Masterlist will be up by midnight. It's 30K words and ... well, the writing isn't good. But there's funny lines and a lot of proto-ideas that later morphed into more fully-fledged ideas in other fic.
The carnies recycle. Am I supposed to think better of them because of this? It just makes me roll my eyes more at them.
I like that Hiro isn't up to date on who's alive and who's not. On the other hand, it's interesting that he has kept up with Mo enough to know where he lives. And presumably his address and stuff. How and why would he know that? I can't remember them having more than a passing interaction on screen. And if Mo has been missing for 8-9 weeks, wouldn't his girlfriend have called people like Hiro to find out where he is?
Fliers promoting the carnival, huh? That requires someone going to their next location and plastering it with fliers. Maybe getting a permit (you need a permit to legally flier places). They need a permit also to operate a business like a carnival. Fliers attract attention - but at least it explains how they attract customers.

Peter has a visitor's badge! That's so cute!
