I'm dying here. I have a shiny new fandom, and I heart it so.

[apocalypsos]

Yahoo TV has clips from this week's Heroes up.

Okay, so that first scene josses Somewhere a Clock Is Ticking well and good.

DON'T CARE.

Know why?

Because that "Lucky Us" clip makes me GIDDY IN MY PANTS.

Hiro. And Nathan. HIRO MEETS NATHAN. AND HIRO GOES ALL FANBOY ON HIM. AND TELLS HIM HE CAN BEND SPACE AND TIME. AND SAYS HE SAW HIM FLY.

There will be Nathan FLYING and that will make me GIDDY IN MY PANTS TWICE.

*bounces around the room like a spazz*

I really need to write Nathan flying fic. Yes, I know I wrote Warren Worthington loves his wings fic. But it's not the same thing, because where there were wings, now there is fucked-up brothers who have to save the world.

*swoons*

I could do with some Chinese food right now.

It wasn't the dead guys' car. It was registered in her name. Truth be told, I don't particularly like Nikki... but I do like, and am interested in seeing more of, the powered personality who seems so much more competent.

And yeah, the mother-in-law thing was more than a bit dumb. And then there's the whole thing with the bodies that had previously been buried out in the desert... I guess the writers figured they need some way to work in the backstory about just what her husband might've done and how she got involved with Lindermann in the first place.

The cheerleader, I agree, is far more interesting. But I'm willing to give webstripper-girl a few episodes more before I completely write her off.

The four icons I've got in mine I made myself, but there ARE some Heroes icon communities out there already. Check out:

Now, see, i totally didn't get the *other* bodies in the desert thing. Are we to assume she buried them, too? Or had something to do with it? Or....something? Her taking the ring of the freakin' corpse seemed *really* dumb.

And thank you thank you for the links! Yay!

Links are love. ; )

I'm still confused about the whole bodies-in-the-desert thing myself. The implication the writers were trying to aim for, I think, is that her husband did it... but I think it's more likely that her alternate personality did. For one thing, there's the shiny brand new shovel in the sand out there; for another, the alternate personality knew EXACTLY where to go and left a map. The thing that makes me wonder about it is that the bodies had clearly been there for some time.

Initially I'd thought that the black guy working with Daddy Bennet -- you know, the one who shielded from the telepathic cop Matt Parkman -- was her husband. But if that was the case, he totally should've recognized her in bed with Petrelli.

Another theory shattered by the writers. *grin*

[tabaqui]

Yeah, it toally made me think that she'd killed those people for sure, but it was *months* ago, seemingly, by the condition of the bodies so....she'd had the blackouts and didn't know about them? I dunno. Very odd, very intriguing. About the only thing about her story that is.

One way that it could be happening and she wouldn't know about it was if the alternate came out to play in the middle of the night, when Nikki was expecting to go to sleep. But as the stressors in her life have grown, so the alternate has been coming out more and more...
