Nathan's Apartment, Sunday evening

[repeterpetrelli]

Peter had Chinese food, DVDs of various types - no chick flicks - and an entire being made up of nothing but empathy.

Now all he needed was to adjust the company he was keeping.

When the evening rolled around, Sam went over to Nathan's apartment and knocked on the door, hoping Peter was already there. He'd had some time to calm down after his eventful afternoon in the park, but he was still more annoyed than he wanted to be.

[repeterpetrelli]

Peter got the door. "Hey. C'mon on. Want something to drink?"

[psychic_wonder]

"Yes, but I don't think Nathan would appreciate me taking any of his alcohol," Sam replied, going inside.

[repeterpetrelli]

"I was thinking soda but we can go that route too," Peter said. "There's beer in the fridge."

[psychic_wonder]

Sam shook his head. "No, it's okay," he said. "Did you know you have a double in town now?"

[repeterpetrelli]

Peter indicated for Sam to make himself comfortable on the couch while he got the both of them some sodas from the fridge. The Chinese food was on the coffee table. "I didn't dupe. You know I don't like that."

[psychic_wonder]

"I didn't think you duped. I'm pretty sure I wouldn't have had to shove a copy of you into the lake," Sam said, poking at the Chinese food to see what Peter had gotten.

Peter brought back two cans of soda, then made himself comfortable on the other end of the couch. He sat sideways so he could see Sam. "A few folks kept mistaking me for somebody they saw coming into town. I'm guessing we're talking more than similar coloring and haircut?"

[psychic_wonder]

Sam took the soda and shifted sideways as well to face Peter. "Yeah, we're talking actual double, like Dean and Alec."

[repeterpetrelli]

Peter took a sip of soda as he thought that over. Then he grinned. "Guess I'm the stronger one, if you dumped him into the lake."

[psychic_wonder]

"I think he underestimated my ass-kicking skills," Sam said, smiling in spite of himself.

[repeterpetrelli]

"See I don't do that, since I could always kick your ass," Peter said, glad to see Sam smiling. "You're normally not a lake-shoving guy. What happened?"

[psychic_wonder]

"He was a jerk, acting like it was my fault that I look like some guy he knows," Sam said. "My fuse is a little short right now."

[repeterpetrelli]

"Shouldn't he have been ticked that he looked like someone you knew?" Peter asked. Since the part about Sam having a short fuse wasn't confusing.

[psychic_wonder]

"He was ticked about that too, but he made it sound like that was also my fault," Sam explained.

[repeterpetrelli]

"So in another universe I'm just really cranky?" Peter guessed.
