Heroes recs: shiny new fandom!
Three vids:
Die Another Day vid by MartoufMarty (Peter, Sylar, a bit of Claude)
Being an empath is not all it's cracked up to be, and life as a bomb sucks.
Goodnight, Moon vid by BradCPU (ensemble)
The only way to describe this is as a fever dream, with Mr Muggles assuming a strangely ominous role.
The Wreckoning vid by Charmax (NikiJessica)
She came, she saw, she kicked some ass....
Three fics:
"Predestinate" by Saestina (Peter, Claire: gen)
This answers--brilliantly--the biggest of the questions remaining in the aftermath of Volume One: Every other future Isaac Mendez painted has come to pass, one way or another. Why not this one?
"Imaginary Friend" by FantasticPants (Bennet/Claude)
Seven years, two months, and one day pass between murders on a bridge--the worst thing Noah Bennet has ever done, and the best. A dead man keeps him company.
HRG is rapidly becoming my favorite character--his road to perdition is compelling and his snark delightful--and FP is without question a master of his characterization. I am every bit as enthusiastic about her as some people are about paper.
"What You Wish For" by Cerebel
(Matt, Mohinder/Nathan!Sylar; a Five Years Gone fic)
It's hard to lie to a telepath... unless, of course, the telepath prefers a lie to the truth. And with so little to choose between them, what difference does it make anyway?
O, how I love dystopian futures and postapocalyptic landscapes! And the narrative spareness of this is so elegant, so devastating.
