KENSAI APROVAL! *dies of laughter some more* Waiting for the slashy reunion of Claude and Bennet is going to make me tear my hair out …
Because he’d seen those films. The ones where charmingly dysfunctional families gathered together for dreaded but ultimately enlightening special occasions only to have their most beloved member bring to the event an uninvited guest, usually in the form of a romantic interest. He knew all about the various comical disasters and emotional exchanges that generally took place as a result of the family’s initial disapproval of the interloper, who would be forced to perform some heroically redeeming task before being welcomed into the fold at the last possible second.
Yes, he had seen those movies. More of them than he cared to say.
Bahahahaahahahahahaha! *huggles you*
And while it was hard to predict exactly what the Petrelli re-enactment of such a storyline would look like--especially when factoring in the certifiably evil mother and the whole thing with the superpowers--Claude felt reasonably sure of one thing and that was Nathan Petrelli’s ability to fulfill his role as the overprotective older sibling whose job it was to scowl thunderously at the intruder for the length of the movie. Because it was always the older sibling who, next to the cold, distant father or shrill, doting mother, was the hardest to convince of the new person’s better qualities.
*sporfleDIEZ* Price … less …
Claude wondered what she’d do when it was her own kids defying the laws of science and nature.
*sigh* Poor dear …
Claude saw it wasn’t one of those cheaply made magazine-type crossword puzzle books either. Rather, it was a fancy hardcover thing that came with its own pen and, Claude saw as he paged through it, sorted its puzzles into such illuminating categories as “Animals” and “People and Places.” Fantastic.
*sporfle* The Doctor is in!
“They haven’t even let me be in a room alone with Monty and Simon yet. I feel like a pedophile or something.”
As someone who would pay good money to avoid being stuck alone in a room with anyone under the age of twenty-five, Claude couldn’t quite sympathize with Peter’s obvious distress.
*sporfle* I know the feeling …
“You and Mohinder and Molly and even Matt.
When Plaude goes ‘home’ Matt had better be gone and Sylar had better be shacking up with Mohinder …*glares meaningfully*
“Grand,” Claude said. “You know, if I’d known this had the potential to be such a disaster, I wouldn’t have come in the first place.”
“Not without a bottle of champagne and a bag of popcorn, you mean,” Peter said, looking up. “You’ve always loved watching train wrecks.”
“True,” Claude. “And your family is a particularly spectacular one, at that. Always making things unimaginably more complicated than they need to be.”
Hee! That’s our Doctor …
“Jesus Christ!” Nathan hissed at Peter. “Where the hell did he come from?”
Claude rocked on his heels. “What’re you on about? I’ve been here the whole time,” he said. “Hadn’t you noticed?”
Bahahahahaha!
“Never been one for climbing trellises, me,” Claude replied. “But don’t worry. I won’t tell any potential assassins how easily I got in here. Or that there’s a handy trellis for them to climb if they ever need a way to get into the house unnoticed.” A beat passed. “You’re an incredibly easy man to stalk, by the way. You might want to look into that. Especially if you’re still planning on being president someday.”
Hah! *rofl*
“She likes me over the phone,” Nathan said. “In person, she jumps out windows to get away from me.”
“Yeah, well, who wouldn’t?” Claude said.
*DIEZ*
“But I’m not showing myself until Bennet’s gone. I’m not dealing with him until I absolutely have to, right?”
Like strangling him in a manner that will make me scream ‘HoYay?’ *can’t wait for the next part*

Anyway, I'm glad you're continuing to enjoy the story and that you're looking forward to the brief Bennet and Claude reunion in the next part (though I admit--I don't know how slashy it will be). I have to say, I thought long and hard about Claude's use of the word "fantastic" in this chapter--I knew it would sound like the Doctor and that you would pick up on it! :) All this talk makes me want to re-watch that series over again. Hmm...
Thanks again for commenting! Part Four should be up soon--hope to see you there!

*sigh* Had to wipe it, but I had everything saved.

Please make it vaguely slashy! For me?

Hee, you know me, I'm on Doctor-Watch ... this was a Code 9! Tee hee ...

I'm very happy that X-Mas brought season 1 DVDs, sadly no season 2 or 3 but that's ok as they're incredibly expensive ...

Of COURSE I commented! Sweet, of COURSE I'll be there!
