A FIC! FROM squills! I am happy and gleeful.

But the selfish part of him wants to chuck Matt out a window and hold on to Molly and never let her out of his sight again.

The comedy part of me is SO up for that happening.

He so desperately needs a constant, someone to belong to, who belongs to him, a tie that won’t be broken…

*wince* Such a beautiful, painful line. I worry about Mohinder recently like you worry about a friend who's doing too much work.

Mohinder lets his breath out. “Let me get this straight,” he says cautiously, still keeping his mind as blank as possible. “You woke me up, because you thought someone was out here being happy?”

WELL, WE CAN'T HAVE THAT!!! Awesome line, had me giggling.

Finally he leans his head against the window frame. In a voice too low for normal ears to hear, he whispers, “I’ll be alone tomorrow night.”

*gasp*

This was beautiful. You're as good at writing this kind of thing as you are at... the you-know-what.

That's an excellent way of putting it. When he shot Bennet, I wasn't angry that he'd pulled the trigger--I was worried about how pulling the trigger was going to mess him up.

WELL, WE CAN'T HAVE THAT!!! Awesome line, had me giggling.
Hee. I don't Parkman and Mohinder really like each other very much. I could totally see Mohinder snarking at him like that (and believing that Parkman is petty enough to try to make him more miserable).

This was beautiful. You're as good at writing this kind of thing as you are at... the you-know-what.
Thank you! :0) Just between you and me, though, I kind of have the you-know-what on the brain right now...

[squills]

Thank you! I'm glad you liked it! :0)

aww! this is adorable!! me loveses it, though a very VERY small part of me thinks that maybe Sylar's a little TOO caring??? maybe??? oh, well. it's still awesome!
and that line (which everyone else has already commented on): "Finally he leans his head against the window frame. In a voice too low for normal ears to hear, he whispers, “I’ll be alone tomorrow night.” "
is so beautiful....um....would it be too much to ask for um....maybe....a drabble about that next night?? *gets a little hopeful*...please??

Actually, I agree. I think I made him a bit too nice. But Mohinder has been having such a horrible time lately that I really wanted something nice to happen for him, so I just pretended that something happened in between the last episode we saw and this fic that softened Sylar up a little bit. ;0)

would it be too much to ask for um....maybe....a drabble about that next night?? *gets a little hopeful*...please??
Hmmm. I'll see what I can do...

[poemwithnorhyme]

Awwww....A sweet turn in a vicious pairing. This was just great, gives me a lot of happy thoughts. Great job! ^_^

[squills]

Mohinder's been taking such a beating lately, I really wanted something to happen to give him hope to go on. I'm glad you liked it! :0)

This is beautifully and heartbreaking all at once. You've really captured Mohinder's feelings as his life seems to spiral. Again he wants to do the right thing and in this case he'll do it even if it means breaking his own heart (letting Molly go where she'll be safe).

I love the way Sylar is here but isn't...and that emotional connection he fills for Mohinder. We've touched on this before...the bond these two have, whether they can explain it or not. When you look at how disconnected both have been so far this season (even though Mohinder has been surrounded by people and Sylar's been traveling with the twins) it's the bond between the two of them that really speaks of a connection.

This part:

Finally he leans his head against the window frame. In a voice too low for normal ears to hear, he whispers, “I’ll be alone tomorrow night.”

is incredible on all the levels on which it works.

[squills]

I've really been feeling empathy for Mohinder lately: doing the right thing is bringing him as much or more pain than doing the wrong thing would have. I could see him as still being disturbed by that odd rapport he has with Sylar, but yet so desperate for something, anything, to cling to, that he might give in and cling to Sylar in an attempt to keep from hitting rock bottom. Sylar might be murderous and untrustworthy, but at least he can be depended on to always be around when the "good" guys can't be.

Thanks so much!!!
