[ Sylar is just beginning to piece his life back together again, learn about his own abilities again. So even though there's been a murder today that he doesn't want attributed to him, he doesn't know enough about his life - prior to losing his memory, prior to spending several months being someone else - to not choose today to make his debut on the network.

His voice is a little uncertain still, his memories are all for the most part accumulated from objects, and they feel like they belong to someone else. In many ways he's still not sure who he is. But it's been two weeks. Long enough. And perhaps seeing some familiar faces will help. Or at least that was the idea, naive as it is. ]

I'm sorry to keep you all waiting. I'm back.

[ And that's it. ]

Private to Peter

[ His expression is much warmer in the video to Peter. There's even the edge of an uncharacteristic smile, although there's uncertainty too. ]

I want waffles, but I can't find where you keep the iron. Peter-- [ Just the briefest pause. ] --What is it that you do all day, when you're not here?

Depends on what you mean by "catch up", doesn't it, Sparky?

Catch up on current events, catch up on old times, or catch up in the literal sense.

Your call.

'Let me catch you up' said the spider to the fly?

I was thinking current events.

More like a game of tag, Sparky. You owe me from the last one.

[ You were not a very good catcher, Sylar. More effort needed. ]

Oh, current events-- quite a few things, I think.

People are swapping bodies, the darkness is as cloying as ever, and Spencer's Hunting Grounds got trampled by a band of Newcomers.

All very messy.

I owe you a game of tag?

[ It's official. He has no idea who this man he's supposed to be is. Creepy serial killer, confident lover, playful life of the party. It all seems so contradictory. ]

And what part have you been playing in all of it?

Sure you do! You didn't put much effort in the last one.

[ Don't feel bad, Sylar. It's Xigbar you're talking to; he's good at sending mixed messages. ]

Observing, naturally. What else would I be doing?

You mean to tell me that you just sit back and watch as everyone else has all the fun?

[ Not buying it. And this is the very first time he's actually edged toward challenging, but didn't you just say you played tag, Xigbar? Such a contradiction. ]

[ Of course, he plays. That doesn't mean he doesn't know how to popcorn.gif every once in a while. ]

Not always, Sparky.

Sometimes, I make quite a splash.

If you're making splashes I'd rather not have anything to do with it. From now on I'm keeping my feet on solid ground.

Not a fan of cannon balls, huh?

If I knew a little more about diving, I might have had something witty to reply with. I'm all out.

[ He chuckles softly. ]

Learn a little something new everyday, Sparky.

It'll keep you on your toes.

I'm learning plenty as it is without adding 'study diving' to the mix. All things considered, it doesn't seem like a skill I have much interest in pursuing.

Consider it a general sort of suggestion, Sparky.

Pursue what strikes your interest, and maybe you'll find what you're looking for.
