Frightening, intriguing, and subtle. I can't really be any more eloquent than that. I actually really loved the idea of Mohinder having a family with an OC character, and having a daughter who loved him. Him as an aging father, being told to get implants, is really sort of beautiful in a way.

The idea of him dying frightens the crap out of me though.

This was nail-bitingly good!

cheers!

OMG! I absolutely love this one. I love how it's so confusing and yet gets explained in the end. I have to admit, I was worried for Mohinder, even though I tend to kill him off or hurt him in my fics *is a hypocrite* To be honest, I'm still sort of confused - my take on the ending was that it would lead to the future scenario of Mohinder having a family, with Sylar posing as "Uncle August". I'm sure I'm wrong, but that's what I'd like to think will happen in this fic 'verse.

I also wanted to say that I especially loved the interaction between Mohinder and Sylar at the end - how Mohinder initially reacted to Sylar jumping in front of him, and how the conversation switched from snarky to serious. IMO it's a little difficult to have them voluntarily end up on the same side, but you managed to make it work so well in this fic, or at least leaving the ending open for interpretation. Fantastic job on this!

I probably should have sat on this one a bit longer. I'd written the first draft a long, long time ago, and got to a point where I wanted to just finish it. I went a little "artistic" with it; from Mohinder's P.O.V., things are confusing and disorienting because he's not sure what these visions are, and when he learns that there are so many gory ways he could die, it doesn't leave his head in a better space. So I was deliberately making it a little confusing, so that the reader would feel the same way he did. That may have been a bad decision...

my take on the ending was that it would lead to the future scenario of Mohinder having a family, with Sylar posing as "Uncle August".Exactly right! I deliberately switched to Sylar's P.O.V. in that last part because I couldn't come up with a way to describe Mohinder's inner thoughts without feeling like I was telling readers, rather than showing them. That's definitely it, though. It's not so much that Mohinder thought, "Being friends with Sylar is the only future where I stayed alive

Finally! I had this on the list of things I bookmarked to read after I was finished with the JLPT. It's always nice to see new writing from you. :) I love AUs in general, so I always love seeing fics like this pop up
