So I'm on the fence when it comes to that particular subplot. He's still one of my top three favorite characters. |

One inconsistency I found; Posing as [[Gretchen]] was a bit quick-thinking and sane for just being stabbed in the eye.

Anyone else find Samuel's nerdrage hilarious? Seriously, it was a glorified nerdrage. Sub-attractive man can't get Semi-Attractive woman (I thought the art was hotter than the actual character)... give said guy some superpowers and we got ourselves a nerdrage. In its purest form. |

So. Technically, I already have a "blog". That one lists certain ventures with games, specifically Guild Wars. But mostly others. I also chime in with some real-life muses, other-game guild drama, and the occasional movie review.
What I don't have, is one dedicated to the shows I watch and enjoy. Sure, I could probably use the link above... but I don't watch shows regularly so it'd be nice to have more of a "casual" blog, to update when I actually think of something to say. Well, kind of like I do to the link above... but this page will be more of a specialist.
I might, however, just end up posting the same thing on two different websites. I'm not sure. If that happens, oh well.
The compulsion to start a blog on this Heroes Wiki came from a post of mine here, where I said the following;
[Referring to Hiro in his "dream-court", when reciting the opening to "quantam leap".
"I didn't need to get the actual reference to get the point of the line. What Hiro was saying wasn't original. I don't blame him for it, I often think of song lyrics for certain scenarios (for stories, games, or real life situations). Just because it came from something else doesn't mean it didn't come from the heart."
I thought that was rather thought-provoking. That's how I write sometimes, it'd be nice to express things further, via blog.
Oh, do be warned though. Sometimes I say bad words. Click your fucking back button if you get all pantie-twisted over it.
Onto some more relevant news!
I just watched Close to You and Pass/Fail on NBC.com, because despite me having an operable and accessible television, my mind is often more preoccupied by World of Warcraft and not having a job. COINCIDENCE, I say!
Close to You was a neat episode, except Peter is carrying around the Idiot Ball once more. He could have just spoken to Lydia instead of smashing her shit like a physchopath.
I thought the episode's Matt/Noah dynamic was rather interesting. Both of them had good points for and against Matt's "hiding out". On Matt's side. He does have a family who he loves, and should stick by. On the other, he's a lot more powerful than he gives himself credit for and would be a lot of help against many types of villains. So I'm on the fence when it comes to that particular subplot. He's still one of my top three favorite characters.
It's also neat to see Mohindrance back in play. He's always amusing to watch.
And the next episode, Pass/Fail, was pretty fun to watch. I know Hiro is a show favorite but they shouldn't have saved his dumbass. Sylar is our new comic relief.
Speaking of which, Sylar was very... "sane", this episode. Though the guy really needs to find a damn foothold.
One inconsistency I found; Posing as Gretchen was a bit quick-thinking and sane for just being stabbed in the eye. Normally he would have just hunt-stalked her and Gretchen, or maybe run off altogether. Either way, normal Sylar would have been raging. I guess this is kind of subverted by Claire mentioning him and his current "emo apologetic" version. Or whatever she said.
