Storm chapter 14 . 1/27/2014 Why do I do this? Get into fandoms years and years after they've died, I mean. I really love this story and have been obsessed with it for the past week or so. I read it on LJ first and kept thinking 'Well, it says there are 17 parts, so it's probably finished'...But yes. This is what I get for liking Mylar 5 years later. I was trying to see if maybe it was finished and just never got fully posted on LJ, which is how I found this. Anyways, I really enjoyed this story. I've spent the last little while reading through all the Mylar I can find (which is a scary amount. How did I miss this when it was actually happening? I was watching the show when it aired...) and this story is probably my favourite multi-chapter one. I hope you're still writing for other fandoms, or original fiction. |
LeAnn chapter 14 . 8/20/2013 This story was both sexy and awesome! I would love to read more, so please update soon. I can't wait to see what happens next! _ |
XxWanderlustxX chapter 14 . 3/10/2012 I wanna read mooooooorreee, it was just getting good... |
Viviane Renard chapter 14 . 7/12/2011 This is a fantastically written story! I am only sorry to see that it has been so long since an update... But focusing on what is written: this story's plot is wonderfully developed, with interweaving plot lines that contain both action, suspense, and character development. Everyone is in-character, but you go beyond that: you take the original characters and show how they could have realistically developed if events had taken a different turn than the tv series. You take the best components of the tv series (time travel, predictions of apocalyptic futures, tangled alliances and betrayals, and super power fights), and use that sturdy foundation to create a story that is out of this world. You integrate actual scenes from the series, but introduce them from a refreshing and keenly insightful perspective. Honestly, I wish your story had been the third season, instead of the real deal! I love the ups and downs to Mohinder and Sylar's relationship, as much as what they have now can be called that. You couldn't have done a better job with that. I also love that in these last few chapters you've used Adam as an interesting addition to the power struggle going on between the "good guys," the Company, and our favorite homicidal special. I was so disappointed in the third season when Adam's only role was to die and heal that old bag of bones Petrelli. You've put the potential of that conniving, charming, 400 year old character to much better use! To sum it all up: great job with this. If you ever decide to write more, I'm sure a great many people will be happy. As is, I will still treasure this superb, crazy roller coaster ride of a story that you've lead us on up until this point. I would say that I'd use my imagination to fill in the blanks for this story, but you've honestly added so many twists and turns that I don't even dare try to fathom how you would wrap up this complex, multi-layered story. |
TheMadButterfly chapter 14 . 8/30/2009 This is a wonderful series! I love the parts with Mohinder having to hide his thoughts of Sylar and him from Peter and Matt. Please update soon! |
limpet666 chapter 14 . 8/16/2009 What a fantastic story so far! You've nailed all the characters dead-on, it's amazing. Usually even the best authors have their moments where they dont keep the characters quite right, but so far they've all been perfect! And what a great plot you've got going, so believable! (they should have just made this into season 3, I'm sure it would have made a lot of people very happy :P). It's very well balanced between the plot and the Mohinder/Syler interaction, there hasn't been a single moment where I've been bored with too much of one or the other, It's also extremely well written, which is the biggest and best thing. I was SO pleased when I found this story, it was exactly what I'd been looking for: long, well written and with my favourite pairing. You really made my night! I really hope you get the next chapter up soon! I cant wait! |
wild wolf free17 chapter 14 . 5/18/2009 This is wonderful. |
fui chapter 14 . 3/14/2009 I just found this fanfic and just finished reading all 14 chapters in one go! Arggh, I'm really anxious to read chapter 15. Your story is wow! You just make it so believable, somehow perhaps it could be an alternate season 3. I like especially the way Mohinder and Sylar's relationship evolves. The best thing is that Sylar used Molly's father's power to find Mohinder. So swet! Anyway, there are lots of amazing scenes in this fic. Chapter 15 please? (begging in puppy dog eyes mode) |
heheheL chapter 14 . 2/7/2009 wow...awesome story. u made me a fan of this pairing. please update soon? |
Besarien chapter 1 . 10/13/2008 Terrific story! Beautifully written, cleverly plotted, intelligently dialogued, and centered around my favorite pairing in the fandom- woot! I adore Sylar at odds with his softer side. Can't wait to see how he and Mohinder save the world together. Adam's Patricia is a great FOC. She has purpose to the plot, isn't overused, nor is she at all annoyingly perky. Peter just bugs me but always does in canon too- so I'd say you have him nailed here. I'm favoriting this story and the gorgeous author, you. A million thank yous for a very enjoyable evening and much good reading to look forward to- oh how I await your updates! |
Ichbingabbie chapter 14 . 9/27/2008 I am going to wish very hard that you will update this story sometime in the nearby future. o.o |
BeatDobby chapter 14 . 7/16/2008 this is really really well written. crazy. great characterization. Its like you went ahead and wrote your own next season of the show with focus on the good stuff. Please continue soon! |
Tinkering chapter 14 . 6/29/2008 Okay first my little side-note. I love your story. Please continue. Sylinder all the way baby! #jumps up and down waving placard like crazed fangirl# Ahem. Now onto my story comments. Lol. I have one sappy request. I get the feeling Sylar isn't going to get back to Momo for a while so if Bob is going to die...I request our little geneticist receive an anonymous gift of a golden rose. It sounds almost too sappy for Sylar but yet, the chance to show off that power AND taunt/contact Mohinder in some way might get him to do it? D So right! That's all. |
YueYoukaiEclipse chapter 14 . 6/17/2008 Clearly it didn't take! This is Adam we are talking about. Poor Hiro, people are after him for revenge and to take his power. I don't feel sorry for Bishop, I hope they off him soon. |
Kyoshiro-Crimson-King chapter 14 . 6/8/2008 Good chapter, update soon! |
