I told you most of this as I was betaing it, but it won't hurt to say it again. I love how bloody dramatic this chapter is. It's clear you've been putting some thought into the action, and it really is a chapter that would work as well visually as it does on the page.

I have always been a fan of your Mohinder but here both he AND Sylar feel real to me. The stream of consciousness you use during Mohinder's escape contrasts so well with Sylar's clipped observations and says a lot about them both. I can't wait to see how they'll interact.

"He didn’t slip up, his uncontrollable lust for murder wasn’t his downfall in the end. He is exactly where he wants to be."

FLAIL.

This is a fucking brilliant first effort, and I'm memming it right the hell NOW.

I think its the film student in me that did it maybe? That degree has to come in handy one day, who knew it would be writing Mylar action scenes.

You know I blush so much at your comments but thank you so much for being my beta and being awesome *has a lovefest*

Oh my god...
This was so amazing! I'm SO intrigued right now, you have no idea!!! Sylar breaking out of prison was AWESOME beyond words, and then WHERE is Mohinder and WHY is he in there?! Sylar has to save him!
I'm a bit speechless right now. I feel like I just got out of an awesome movie.

Whens the next part going up?!

Thank you so much. I was aiming for a cinematic feel and also for people to be asking what the hell is going on. Next part will be up in a few days.

This is an incredible set up to what I anticipate will be an intriguing story. I like how you've paralleled Sylar and Mohinder's stories as I imagine at some point they will come to a point of convergence. You really have a way of getting into the minds of the characters and conveying the variances in thought processes. With Mohinder there's a certain desperation that comes from being out of one's league but also exhilirated by the fight to keep going on. With Sylar there's this amusement that can be mistaken for passive if not for his reminder that he is actually fully in control of what is happening to him

Thanks for the comment. I'm glad you enjoyed this.

I really like your use of both the terms "freedom fighter" and "terrorist"

I've always been fascinated by the meaning of those words and they come into play later in the story. As does the parallel of Sylar's and Mohinder's storyline.

Once again thank you.

This sounds very interesting. I love the idea of Sylar just hanging out in prision, biding his time. I am interested in knowing what he's doing there and why exactly he felt the need to just stay there when clearly he could get out. I'm also looking forward to learning more about Mohinder's predicament. I'm eager to read the next chapter.

Thanks for the comment, Sylar is man firmly in control and it will be revealed what he is up to. Next chapter will be up in a couple of days.

I liked how Sylar compares the tray to a piece of modern, and his perception of time. It conveyed his state of mind perfectly.
I'd love to read more of this.

[be_found]

It conveyed his state of mind perfectly. Thanks you, I find Sylar harder to write than Mohinder so its good to know I'm getting him right.
