The Petrelli's This Week

[mf_luder_xf]

I wish I had time for fic writing!! Because these past two weeks of Heroes practically demand it. Like the end of this week's episode when Nathan shows up with Claire. Peter turns away because he's mad at Nathan, hurt by him, and (momentarily) feels betrayed by him. But he's too beautiful, too Nathan, so Peter can't be mad enough to not cave if he looks at his brother. And how Claire goes immediately to Peter's side with a small embrace, a claim, support. And Nathan understand now, knows he's been a dick and an idiot, but he's also confident (he knows he looks pretty pimp in those aviators. What with those and the flying, he's like fucking Tom Cruise!!) because he knows Peter will come back. He always does. It doesn't help his ego any that though Claire goes straight to Peter, and Peter may have her heart and mind, Nathan's had her body. And maybe he's captured a bit of her heart now too. And maybe together, they can learn to share. And he doesn't mean himself and Peter sharing Claire. But maybe, now that there's a mutual understanding and some mutual interest in one another, he and Claire can learn to share Peter. He's not ready completely, but he's getting there.

And in the midst of a desert compound, 40 miles from nowhere, surrounded by skeletons, they might find family again.
