[ Seated in the corner of the couch in his living room, Peter's looking better than he probably has in months. Less tired, less haggard. Less miserable. You might say he even almost looks... happy. ]

Probably should've spoken up sooner, but-- lost track of time the past few days. [ There's a glance off camera for a second before Peter's clearing his throat and focusing. ]

Starting to think the newspaper really should start trying to be a little more thorough with its investigative work before it tells everyone i've died. Back when the Joker-- Uhm, there's a reason they didn't recover the body. [ a beat ] 'Cause I survived. So if anyone saw that, read it.. i'm fine. Nothing to worry about.

And-- [ After a put upon sigh, for a couple seconds, Peter holds his NV up against his chest, muffling both visuals and sound as he, off camera, takes care of something. But he's back on screen momentarily. Just technical difficulties, folks. ]

If anyone saw that bit in the paper about the aliens? Wouldn't worry about it too much. That was kind of-- [ he sighs; he really doesn't actually want to bring this up, but better to keep rumors spreading than not. ] The Darkness monster population in one of the sectors got kind of overcrowded, figured it was an easy way to take care of it all at once. Sorry about that.

[ And after a forced smile sort of a thing, he clicks his NV off. ]

[ ic replies will likely come a couple hours later. ]

[ Peter's been dealing with Sylar. It's that he's just mostly been dealing with his dick. ]

Hey, we've made it this far.

[cheerhealer]

[ HAHA ]

[askedtobe]

[ SO FUNNY ]

That's all we get?

ok i'm over it B)

[cheerhealer]

That's all I'll give us. I don't know about you but I'd like to get back home to a normal life without Sylar around.

good :3

[askedtobe]

Believe me, I'd love to go back home. But i've already passed my six months here, Claire, i'm three months away from a year and a half.

[ Watch him not mention Sylar at all. ]

[cheerhealer]

There's still a chance the Core will get fixed before then.

[askedtobe]

You really think the companies are trying to fix the Core?

[cheerhealer]

No. But that doesn't mean a newcomer can't come along and know how to fix it.

[askedtobe]

Until then, I don't really think six months is gonna cut it. Unless you get lucky and get dragged back home.

[cheerhealer]

[ a quick smile. ]

That's what I keep hoping will happen.

[askedtobe]

You never know.

[cheerhealer]

Then maybe we could finally be on the same page. [ teasing grin. ]

[askedtobe]

We weren't on the same page before?

IS THAT THE BEGINNING OF A MULLET THAT I SPY

[cheerhealer]

On what's happened back home? We're ... halfway there, I think.

[askedtobe]

Do I even want to know?

[cheerhealer]

I won't force you to know it if you don't want to.

[askedtobe]

Guess it won't hurt anything. Finding out the future's already saved New York once.
