Gosh. You took this prompt and made it 100x more awesome than I could ever hope of imagining possible. I'm probably exaggerating, but your story has me on a high right now and I really want to let you know how much of an amazing read this was.

This fic is so sweet and adorable and heartbreaking and beautiful. I love how it's Peter who weaves the tale of the AU!Heroes world, overflowing with his dreamer's imagination. Even the ending with Peter and Claire being hopeful that the future may be better is so perfect in the "old Heroes" way that it makes me want to break out into song.

Good luck on the challenge!

Wow, this is just fantastic. I love the idea behind this, and their dialogue is amazing, and there were a few times I choked up I was so moved.
Brilliant job!

I love this. Because the sentiment of actual love was so real and true in it. This was a really powerful piece. <3 Thanks for writing it.
