As I'm an utter, teary-eyed wreck right now and have to head off to class in this state, I'll just say that I have so much love for this, and that I'll try to form a more coherent comment when I get back.

Excellent job.

[aheartfulofyou]

Thank you so much! And really, really sorry about the crying thing. :D But, gah, thank you.

Back, and though dripping wet (thankyou PA weather), I am a bit more coherent, so comment take two.

Firstly, the Dostoyevsky and Wilde quotes were brilliantly fitting, especially the former. I read Crime and Punishment a while ago, but I had forgotten it enough that the parallel of Raskolnikov (I probably butchered that) and Sylar was a refreshing moment of "oh, yeah" and nerdy book-girl flailing. :)

Gabriel's portrayal was excellent and Mohinder's wrestling with what he should feel versus what he does..brilliantly done. I love the comparision of Jessica to a "hissing cat" and the tragic demise of Lizard!Mohinder was awesome, if a bit terrible.

Then of course, the end. Fuck. As far as crying when reading fan fic goes, it happens rarely, if at all on my part, but there I was, sitting there blubbering cause I knew what was coming but nothing could've stopped it and christ. so sad and so well-written.

All that said, I have to be slightly picky and say that Mohinder's dialogue was a bit too formal for me throughtout the piece, but eh

[sesemperamabo]

I really loved his formal dialogue, personally... It did leave a sense of "why isnt Gabriel speaking that way?" in me, but that's just wishful <<;

And here here for sequel :o

[tornoutsutures]

incoherent, but loving you.

[aheartfulofyou]

Thank you! ♥

Note: Technically there could be a sequel to this, with Micah seeking revenge for his mommy, and Mohinder desperately trying to find Hiro to time travel, while running away from an either intrigued or upset Linderman. Maybe I'd write it. Maybe.

PLEASE DO. Oh my god, this was AMAZING.

That last part? Totally broke my heart. It's in pieces on the floor over there.

Squee, thank you so much! And since there's a request, okay, fine, I'll get to work on a sequel. :D

Sorry about your heart, too. *Tries to sweep it up and put it back together*. Erm... oops? :D

Really glad you liked it! Thanks again!

(Glad you liked. XD)

Oh, dear. Poor Gabriel, and wow, how Mohinder, though unintentionaly, amnaged to take a certain revenge, because before the last events Gabriel had resigned himself to wait for death.

That he made him want to live, that last moment, was...ouch. Couldn't have been more perfect and painful if he'd do it on purpose.

[aheartfulofyou]

It is ironic, although Mohinder definitely didn't intend to do that. *Huggles him*.

Thanks so much for reading!
