let's see if livejournal eats this again...

I've been home sick the past two days with the sinus infection from hell. Argh. Sometimes I think I should have that sinus surgery for long term relief, but I'm just not sure. Bah.

I have used some of this time resting to get my sister hooked on season one of Dexter (Oh that season finale kills me dead), and trying to get caught up on some of the stuff kicking it on my tivo.



Heroes 1.23 - How To Stop An Exploding Man

I knew Nathan would come through. I knew it. I knew he would show up for Peter because that's just what he does. Peter is his little brother. Gah.

And Nathan is totally fine. I refuse to accept anything else. Not if Sylar is really dead because I loved him in all his creepy, evil ways.

Mohinder...you are so damn DUMB. How do you survive on a daily basis?

I love that Peter goes to Nathan and how he tries to explain it to Claire. I love how upset/disappointed he is when he thinks Nathan is on the wrong side.

So Symone's father was one of the Linderman group types? But was he hiding Claude (since Claude was often up there) and actually against Linderman? As he seemed to think Peter, not Nathan could save the world. And were visions his power and that's how Peter came to have them?

I love that Claire jumps out the window and goes off to find Peter and her father. I love that Mr. Bennett helps Peter because he had saved Claire.

It was so very awesome how all the heroes were there and tried to help fight against Sylar, but it was Hiro who stopped him.

And again, Nathan shows up and he and Peter have a moment and the city is saved.

So much happened in those last ten minutes. I'm just...my mind is still boggling and I really need to watch it again to make sense of it all.

But Nathan is alive, dammit.

And it'll be interesting to see where they go with the storylines of the heroes in season two - will they work together more often? Is Sylar really dead? Is there a plan B for Mama Petrelli and her cohorts? Do Matt and DL live?

Overall, an interesting conclusion to the season. And oh Nathan and Peter. I love you both.



I'm almost caught up on Brothers & Sisters too, only have the finale left, but I sorta don't want to finish it because then we have to wait a whole season for more. But gah, the last one killed me dead and oh Tommy, I love you...and I just love the Walker family in all their insanity.

I'm being overrun by plot bunnies of doom and Steph is only encouraging this stuff. I say to her, "Stop me! Slap some sense into me! I want to genderbend Eric from Entourage!" And she responds, "That's awesome! Do it!" That was not how the conversation was supposed to go.

Then I have a question about What Is and Never Should Be: How long was Dean with the Djinn? How long was Sam looking for him? Do we know? I ask because I may be writing a story from Sam's POV for that time.

Then there is this story idea I had for Dean where he wakes up in all these alternate realities and he has to find his way out, only to end up in yet another one.

Oh, where do these weird, cracked out ideas come from? Oh yes, it's me, in the shower, suddenly getting the image of Dean Winchester in cuffed jeans and a bedazzled teeshirt as a member of a boyband and replying, "Son of a bitch."

You must see the B&S season finale! It is a lot of fun!!

I know! I might try to watch it tonight as there is nothing on television (I only watch the last five minutes of AI finale)...but oh, I love those Walkers.

How long was Dean with the Djinn? How long was Sam looking for him? Do we know?

After Dean figures out what's going on, he says, "The Djinn will drain the life out of me in a couple of days." Presuming Dean was correct (and the illusion of his mother doesn't deny it, she just says it will feel like a lifetime), then Sam couldn't have been looking for him for long.

[storydivagirl.livejournal.com]

Yeah, i figured it wasn't a long time, but I'm trying to put together a basic timeline. Like how long before Sam freaks out about not hearing from Dean at all and starts calling to when does he steal a car to track his brother down, etc...

[tinylegacies.livejournal.com]

Oh Heroes. That was such a good finale. It wrapped up just enough loose ends to give us a payoff, but still left questions unanswered.

I'm dying to know what Mama P's power is -- I thought she had the visions and that's where Peter was getting them, but it looks like it was Symone's dad.

I wanna know who Molly was talking about when she said that there was someone worse than the boogeyman -- I want to re-watch it, but I'm wondering if it's Mama P.

[storydivagirl.livejournal.com]

Hey, it's possible Mama P is the really bad one, but dude, to be even more scared of that person than Sylar? Wow. I'm intrigued.

But dude, you know me and my Nathan love (also my Sylar love), so while it was really good, it was upsetting too. hee.

I totally refuse to believe that any of them are dead, really. We had enough death in the previous episode, so I believe all of them will come through. I can't believe anything else or I'll drive myself nuts this summer.

DEAN IN A BOYBAND OMG. BEST THING EVER. I totally picture him with the little earpiece with the extending microphone and everything. :D :D :D

[storydivagirl.livejournal.com]

Word. no one is dead. Sylar is fine and will be back as a Petrelli next season. And Nathan and Peter are just off having "I nearly lost you" sex somewhere.

Exactly. Dean having to like be part of a boyband...just makes me laugh.

[strifechaos.livejournal.com]

Nathan being there for Peter at the end made me squee, almost as much as Peter's heart wrenching admittance that he needed Nathan because he was scared. *flails like crazy*

Mohinder really is the dumbest genius out there. *sighs* It's no wonder his daddy didn't want him tagging along with him to the States with the amount of trouble he regularly gets into. Although I will say, him and Molly are adorable together. He's totally adopted her. *grins*

Matt, at first I didn't care for his character but he's a h/c-junkie's wet dream. Nothing ever turns out right for him, even when it ought to the poor bastard. I'm hoping he makes it to the next season.

We got Mr. Bennet's first name!! Noah, hee. I was ridiculously thrilled to find out this little bit of canon-y knowledge. And how strange was it that I thought him offering to shoot Peter for saving his daughter was awfully sweet?

Sylar is totally not dead, he slunk off into the sewers. That'd be waaay to easy of a way to have gotten rid of him. Not to mention Sylar has to turn good at some point! All the best good guys were bad guys who need to atone for something. Also this theory allows for me not to feel too bad about lusting after a psychotic serial killer, because really guh!

Couldn't care less about what happened to Nikki, DH or Micha. Although the little grins between Micha and Molly were cute.

Also, the Brothers & Sisters finale was kawaii. I love Kevin and his crazy messed up love life. Not to mention McCally's family is the crack. Major Weiner wins at life.

[storydivagirl.livejournal.com]

Wait, we're not supposed to lust after Sylar? But he's hot and amazing and I love him.

Mohinder is one of those really smart people who has NO common sense whatsoever.

[hopelessfangirl.livejournal.com]

"Mohinder...you are so damn DUMB. How do you survive on a daily basis?"

I wholeheartedly concur. He's so fricking dumb for such a smart person.

"Then I have a question about What Is and Never Should Be: How long was Dean with the Djinn? How long was Sam looking for him? Do we know? I ask because I may be writing a story from Sam's POV for that time."

I'd say an hour or maybe less. Mama Winchester said to Dean that he could stay there in Dreamland for almost "a lifetime" even though in real time the Djinn would've trained the life out of him in a few hours.

[hopelessfangirl.livejournal.com]

Or no, maybe that was a few days. Either way, it couldn't have been that long.

[storydivagirl.livejournal.com]

I'm thinking it might be about a day at most. Mostly because if Sam can't get a hold of Dean, knowing he went to "check something out" alone, I think he'd go into freak-out mode and steal a car...but I just wasn't sure if they ever said.

[random-serious.livejournal.com]

How long was Dean with the Djinn? How long was Sam looking for him?

I don't know how accurate this is but I had the sense that it was a day, not the same one, Dean was captured overnight.
