heidiI'm still mad as hell and I don't have time to go 'round and 'round and 'round...
So for about a year - maybe a little more - I've been pondering a Nathan/Peter-or-Nathan+Peter vid to that Dixie Chicks song with all the irony and double meaning that it incorporates automatically and subtextually, but after this episode - oh, twins in my heart! oh, unbrothers! - I may have to do it with the three Petrelli brothers who exist in my soul, in the universe where Peter and Gabriel are actually twins.
Oh come on, you know it makes a lot more sense than the 'verse we get on screen in this show! All it takes is a tweak to the precise language of what Arthur and Angela told Gabriel back last season and it's fanwankably canon.
I haven't watched any episode since Nathan died on a timely basis. Five days late, maybe ten - I skipped most of the episode with Hiro and the trial thing which is kind of pathetic of me as I saw them filming it (and yes, when I hinted back in November about meeting some s00persekrit guest stars on Heroes, I meant David Anders and George Takei who are both wonderful and were so welcoming and fun).
But I saw this tonight and it was about the twins.
Hands up who thinks the show would be better if they actually were twins, not just dual-sides-of-some-coin or some such thing.
[In case you couldn't tell, both of mine are up.]
Hands up who thinks that when they weren't pounding the wall, Peter and Gabriel were, um...
Oh, finish that sentence any way you like. If it happened in a dreamworld is it any less real? No, I'm not over losing Nathan yet, I'm not ready to make nice with this frustrating as all fuck out show, but I would read fic about Peter and Gabriel in the world of their own heads.
Hands up who's read Pillars of the Earth? It's about creation and destruction and illicit love that can never be between a man and his brother's estranged wife and building up and breaking down, and Peter got it - created it - for Gabriel.
Their talks. Their looks. The "love fest" (this show fucking knows what it is doing). The fact that Gabriel still has some of Nathan's memories just exacerbates the fucked-up-ed-ness.
And I may actually watch the episode again. But the total Lack of Claude makes me utterly uninterested in re-watching the Hey! Let's Re-Do Company Man But Not As Well portions. Because that aspect of retconning is just not intriguing me.
No, I'll just wait until they fully retcon the twins!

Date: 2010-02-03 01:44 am (UTC)I wish they had left Gabriel related to Peter and Nathan, but no joy. And I'm one of those rare fans who LOVED the Villians volume. I was very pissed when it didn't remain that way. Oh well, that's what fanfic's for, right? The fans fix what the writers got wrong. lol
