She ball flicked him ... Twice! I remember working one day and the boys had got it in their head that 'ball flicking' would pas the time quite nicely. They were walking around holding themselves and helping customers. It was amusing to watch them.

Aha a hint at the Narcissism! I like that the thought was he saw horror instead of enchanting beauty. WoW! I think he did know but didn't want to tell Eden.

Her song! He called her a siren. That would be her code name if that was marvel. hehe!

He talked and talked and over shared. I love it when he's squirming.

Another good one Tammy! :D

Also I think he was seeing himself in the glass when he was talking to Eden and then her just beyond his reflection. Well done!

She don't take no shit. Eww that's gross :\

That's why I think he's more of a "shy" type, he's aware and I think tries to reason, justify and also blame others to make him feel less guilty. But he knows.

It would totally be her superhero name!

Thank you, nice to go back into their ship for a bit.

Mmm that's a nice visual :)

Very good.
It's nice to have some new Syden.

I never saw Eden as a torturer before this, but it works well. Using her power to make someone tell all the deepest secrets seems like something she would take a little too much pleasure in. Also, the repeated blows below the belt had to hurt.

Sylar is well written. He comes across as shy, social awkward and childish. He blames everyone else for killing. It's not his fault because of his childhood, or society, or that he's more special, or that he feels hollow. Sylar seems like an over grown child seeking desperately to find someone else to blame for his misdeeds.

The comment about Narcissus is awesome. It is the overly reflective soul searching that Sylar could lapse into during his insecure moments. Eden's sarcastic response appears to accomplish two things. The first is that it hurts Sylar, and the second is that it distances her from having to look at or evaluate herself, or past.

Anyway, very nice story.

I think because it's him she doesn't mind, it gets to him. But apart from this she wouldn't use it, I don't think she liked using it full stop.

Thank you! I was reading up on NPD, which I think he has, and incorporating it. So he would blame others, not himself but is the type that deep down knows he's in the wrong. But then tries to reason it to push away the guilt. Round and round.

He's totally theatrical, even when he doesn't have an audience. Glad you picked up on that! I love that they're so alike, both have these aliases but Sylar is like a cautionary tale for Eden, what she might have become if no one had intervened. And vice versa to I guess.

Thanks again :3
