Summary: The many lives of Mohinder Suresh

Review:
My name is Mohinder Suresh.

I was born April 8th, 2015, in Chennai, India.

My father, Chandra Suresh, was murdered at 11:53 PM on September 28th, 2047, by a man named Sylar.

This fic is short and sweet mindfuck, with a chilling premise and a great execution. The first person perspective and sparse prose hint but never outright state "Zane's" goals, as he makes Mohinder relive that fateful roadtrip with him, over and over. But it's the details of each iteration of Mohinder's trip which paint a delightfully disturbing scene. As you get farther and further into the narrative, you start to doubt even the most fundamental premises of the story- why is Sylar constantly wiping Mohinder's memory? Why does he keep changing the narrative that he's built for Mohinder? Is the narrator even really Mohinder? I've read this story countless times, and each time I take away something new. If you're a fan of Sylar, brainwashing or "The Stepford Wives", mosey on down to the link below.

The Last Two Men by Toestastegood (R)

  • Oct. 21st, 2009 at 8:10 AM
Title: The Last Two Men
Fandom: Heroes
Pairing: Mohinder/Sylar (but I would probably call this Mohinder centric gen)
Categories: angst, dark-fic, established-relationship, horror, supernatural
Length: long (~30,000)
Warnings: end-of-the-world, character deaths, zombie-vampires

Author on LJ: [livejournal.com profile] toestastegood
Website: n/a

Author's Summary: On the 13th of November 2010, the dead began to remain undead. Two years later, the last men on Earth struggle to survive.

Review:
I Am Legend Mylar style.

The Last Two Men is not a story for the faint-hearted. If you've seen the movie I Am Legend and loved it (or loved most of it), you might appreciate when I say this story is darker, more chilling, and will leave you with hopelessness and despair. You see the world through Mohinder's eyes and you will have the full experience of his doubts and fears and watch his hopes being crushed.

The writing isn't exceptional, yet the emotions came through raw and painful. I think this story might have temporarily scarred me. Highly recommended to enthusiasts of the zombie genre. Just remember to keep a fluffy story handy to read afterwards.

Review:

In another time, another universe, Gabriel Gray gets what he deserves when Chandra Suresh’s son comes to him with the intention of finishing his murdered father’s work.

Sylar is by far my favorite character in Heroes, because he just has so many facets to his character. There’s the sociopathic serial killer, willing to carve a bloody swath of victims to get what he wants, the trickster with a thousand different faces, and the morally gray villain who envisions himself a hero, but there’s also poor little Gabriel Gray, the sensitive watchmaker who dreamed of being special, and had his heart broken when Chandra Suresh said he wasn’t. He’s by far my favorite part of Sylar, because, for all that he’s a total woobie, he’s still Sylar in the end, ambitious and greedy and willing to sacrifice everything to have his firm belief that he’s special to be validated by the world. But Gabriel had some hard knocks dealt to him, which then gave birth to Sylar, he of the sawed off skulls, and my tender fangirl heart weeps for him and his lost innocence. Alternate Universe gives Gabriel the happy ending that he could’ve had, and it’s just a really great feel-good romance. Who says serial killers can’t find love too?
