Fun. I figured Sylar could have been ‘Candace’ at any point but I don’t think he/she could have been Nathan at the same time and Nathan being a public figure my guess would be that ‘being’ Nathan is a full time job. Also how do the illusions work on TV cameras? They seem to be focussed on creating illusions about Candace, I don’t think she could just snap her fingers and make people see a unicorn on the other side of the room (tries not to think too hard about the skience). So I think that regardless of when Sylar killed Candace (and it would make more sense for him to use being ‘rescued as a way to find more victims) killing Nathan must have occurred after her ‘disappearance.’ And I wrote this before reading your story and will now stop talking.
5YG is the worst extreme for most characters
It’s like a be-careful-what-you-wishverse, on paper many of the survivors are more successful post-explosion. Nathan obviously and Mohinder has all the resources he could want. Matt’s a player not a schlub and even gets the better of Bennet when he pulls Claire’s location from his mind. Claire gets the normal life she once wanted, a boyfriend, marriage. Nicki gets to be a porn star…
bringing Peter's passionate nature back when previously he was numbed.
Yes exactly. And even when the genocide/tyranny get alluded to it’s because they were done in his brother’s name :-) I liked the ‘Pete’ detail particularly because I’ve noticed one of my sons has just started calling his brother Mike, which no-one else does.
