A matchbook from a hotel in upstate New York. Mohinder had called him out of the blue and asked what he was doing that weekend. Sylar had been nonchalant on the phone but had smiled so wide that thought he would never stop. Whatever it was that had made Mohinder ask, Sylar didn’t care.

oh wow. man you pierced my heart with this one. it was exceptionally beautiful. i absolutely love it when people write sylar like this. i've been reading a lot about his personality lately, and i love seeing the side of him where he would go to a hotel after mohinder sends him away and just cry. after rejection it seems completely like something he would do.

and i loved the part about the burned CD. something so simple and yet such a huge gesture to him.

this fic reveals everything about their relationship and how it would be in an almost realistic sense. i absolutely adored this. def going in my favs!

This is gorgeous. I love the idea of mementos/keepsakes that detail the history of a relationship. They're only objects but there is a personal worth that is priceless. I love that you get the angst that comes from the difficulty of them being together and yet that undercurrant of want is there...from both of them.

Thanks! I felt like Mohinder would be the denial type whereas Sylar wouldn't give a damn about anyone knowing and would try to sneakily reveal their relationship to someone.

Is it wrong that I like it when people cry?

Yes, yes it is.

I liked this fic. It seems one never sees Sy as vulnerable. With the hotel scene, it seems he would go back and trash his room vs crying. I like him having a sensitive side and keeping it hidden. It adds to the allure of everything.

Thanks for your comment, I wasn't quite sure how he should react to being thrown out, I think there would have been times when he smashed the place up but also times when he felt so frustrated that he was boo hooing.
