1. Snap
2. There's a knot, and it's been there for weeks
3.Luke was bored.
4. "We can't do this anymore Pete. Nothing about our situation is..."
5. "Hey, I'm not available right now, please leave a message, I get back to everyone. Thanks."
6. Gabriel was already awake when the alarm clock beeped beneath his pillow
7. If there was one thing Luke was good at, it was sulking.
8. Fog swirled and surrounded light as the pavements shone with rain.
9. Gabriel blinked awake as Lydia's weight lifted from the bed and she pulled her dress about her without looking back.
10. Sylar took a deep breath and focused on the mirror image in front of him
11. Gabriel scrunches his eyes in concentration as he feels Matt press into him
12. Gabriel nuzzled into Mohinder's neck and breathed deep, taking in the scent that Mohinder didn't know he had.
13. Wheels ground over small stones as Sylar and Luke drove on.
14. Sylar blinked into nothingness.
15. Dan leaves his bags by the door, just in case.
16. Nathan was a politician.
17. Sylar's cheeks burned with the humiliation.
18. Luke shivered as a droplet of water from the washcloth dripped onto his bare skin.
19. Of course, they were drunk the first time.
20. The first time they held each other it was Winter
Things in common? A lot of them are declaritive present tense statements, I notice that. Anyone else??
