OH MY GOD. This was so...touching but yes, so insane. This was also very brilliant, because I could see him doing this more than a lot of fics I've read. This, I can just see.
And it's just so sad. I think it actually brought tears to my eyes.
I love it.

I like the end where she says she feels bad for him, but she owes him nothing (which is so very true). Oh dark and bitter and CRAZY!
What was Maya talking about "Her child"? ;)

Exactly. I wanted her to come across as kinda mellow and possibly showing forgiveness but in the end still "why should I care after what you did?"
Heehee, had to get a mention in there ;)

I'm kinda turn about f!Gabe. On one hand I feel so, so sad for him because like you say he really is making an effort to be different and is empathetic and loving. But then on the other it rubs me up the wrong way that he's not held responsible for all the killings, not punished etc and gets to have a very comfortable looking life (aside from fighting The Hunger)
Or maybe I just like him wallowing in angst. But yeah what I was trying to get across that he's clutching hard to this obsession about Maya because without it, or his son, all he’s got is being Sylar.

Like Chandra knew he was murderer, did he go to the police? And then there’s Eden living next door and apparently not doing anything…
Aww, its like domestic bliss and then tragedy. Poor little boy! I always envision Gabe as a single parent, I just don’t think Noah had a mother (that’s why he looks rather subdued, in my AU canon ;__;)

But now you've piqued my interest in the Qu'ran version of the story. It sounds a lot more interesting than what's in the Bible, that's for sure.

It is really interesting. The actual breathing part depends on the translation. Google books brings up some versions of it.
