I gather this means I need to check my e-mail again.
No, that was just general excitement. You fail the broccoli test! (Totally unfair, of course. The broccoli test needs to take place in person.)

Except for how I TOTALLY KNEW you were excited, and I did in fact need to check my e-mail again, and-and-and... I think I have a fever.

Have we seen for sure that Sylar absorbs powers? I know he is a telekinetic with some other powers besides, but a power absorber? Are we sure?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
She did the classic run and trip on the steps, and then Peter ran up behind her.
Was it his shadow cast? I only noticed the shadow cast by her dad.

Maybe the cheerleader they were supposed to save was actually Jackie....

maybe in the stuff that mohinder found in the apartment?
I thought that there were two amphitheatre paintings. One with Claire lying on the steps with the shadow over her, and one with the amphitheatre empty with the shadow from the door.

I'm thinking of the one with Claire running away from the viewer, up the stairs/seats/whatever, and a shadow cast across them. Then there was one of the dead cheerleader in the foreground, with the silhouette of a person, and the shadow coming toward the viewer. I don't recall the setting.
I don't remember seeing that shot either, now that I think of it.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
Which one? We don’t know if the dead cheerleader painting was Jackie or Claire.
People have said the dead cheerleader painting is Jackie. But I meant the disputed shot on the stairs, which never appears to happen. Peter gets their first, and there's no shot of just Claire and the looming shadow.

We do not know for sure that Sylar absorbs powers. But the brain thing, combined with the fact that Claire wasn't able to regenerate when her brain was impeded, makes it pretty damn likely that Sylar's getting powers by eating brains. Or doing something with the brains at least: the point is, the powers are in the brains. In that 90% we don't use, remember?

I would think that situation would be true for any injury of Claire's where the agent causing injury was still piercing her body. Just, what with the board being in her brain and all, normal life functions were also at a standstill til it was pulled out.
