Cliffhanger supremo! I was on the edge of my seat throughout all parts waiting for the next. And you've left me in the same state. Moar plz.
I really had it set in my mind that it was going to end with all the Sylar's caught and dealt with, and ending with some plotting and scheming inner monologue from nathan!Sylar. But the sheer scale of this ending is intense.

Thank you! It means so much to know you were interested all the way through and wondering what was going to happen next. Moving into writing longer stories I am concerned I may lose reader interest.

Muahhaa! I'm so glad the ending caught you by surprise. When I wrote it I had a delicious sense of impending horror for what Sylar was going to unleash on the world. I actually had butterflies in my stomach because his plan would so royally fuck everybody over.

Thank you so much for reading and sharing your reaction! You've made my day!

This was really well done, the ending so unexpected and so good.

I completely agree that Sylar should develop the powers he takes to be used in new and better ways. It's a pity we don't see it on the show.

And Sylar feeding himself into a woodchipper after taking preparations to care for his children - that was both disturbing and sweet - should that be sweetly disturbing?

<3<3<3 You've slogged through the whole thing! Thank you!

I'm still a bit horrified at the ending. The world is pretty screwed. I suppose the one good thing is only the original has the ability to change his appearance... so far.

It's sort of like the genesis of a zombie apocalypse but instead of shambling hordes of undead you have an army of dangerous, unstable serial killers. XD

And of course the first on his feet tries to kill the others making MORE dangerous, unstable serial killers until the doors of the warehouse start bulging aaand
Kaabooom. Sylars splattered everywhere

Fractal Sylar! I had hoped the urge to kill each other would have come through, implicit, in the ending.

I do like that it was Parkman trying to defend himself that triggered a Sylar duplicate to look past his own selfishness and decide to sacrifice himself as a big 'fuck you' to the original Sylar.

If everybody's special then nobody is! >=D

Thank you!!
It's an odd little fic so I'm really pleased you liked it.

*shudders at the thought of a hundred thousand Sylars on the loose*

This is one of the best things I have read in a long time. girzgirz September 23 2011, 16:20:43 UTC
It was suspenseful, it was intense, extremely in-character and wonderful to read. I was supposed to be studying for an exam, but this kind of took over my morning unexpectedly.

The tie-in to current season 4 set-up was brilliant. The ending was horrifically chilling and stupendous.

Great job!

Thank you very much for reading and leaving such a complimentary comment!

I hope your exam went well despite the distraction from your studies?

I'm very pleased you found it suspenseful and thought I had managed to write the characters in-character. I'm still just learning to write suspense and your comment made my day!

Thank you, again!
