Maybe he'll have another accidental jump, like when he ended up on the roof of his office?

Maybe he'll end up in the animatronic ride with the dinosaurs in EPCOT?

I am the fly who dreams of the spider
was it here or over at TWoP that I read that Hiro could end up at a museum, which is where there would be swords and dinosaur skeletons and statues?
Cuz as geeked out as I am over Hiro facing off against a T-rex in theory, I cringe at the thought of it's execution.

Hmm. The museum theory sounds plausible.
A question: What happens when Peter meets the Haitian? Does the Haitian dampens Peter's power first so that Peter can't siphon off his ability? Or does Peter take on the Haitian's power for power-dampening so that Haitian no longer has that power, in which case Peter can't have it either, except he had it and... what? Or maybe they mutually mind-wipe each other and both of them become drooling idiots.
Or perhaps this is one of those matter/anti-matter scenarios which will unravel the fabric of space-time continuum and make life as we know it cease to exist. Or something.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
Ha. That is confusing. Is the Haitian's power always on, or is it directed?
Hiro! With a sword! Fights a dinosaur!
Maybe it's a metaphorical dinosaur. Where do you suppose that sword is?

S to the A -- using they/them pronouns!

Why would the Haitain no longer have his power? In none of the scenarios we've seen so far has Peter's reflection of other heroes' powers affected the original heroes' powers. Realistically, the Haitian wouldn't even know Peter had such a power, let alone the Haitain's own (albeit temporarily) unless it was explained or shown to him that that is what Peter's power is. And I suspect that the mind wipe requires some kind of concentrated effort, like Hiro and teleporting/jumping around in time.

Well... it COULD happen.

Well, Haitian clearly has good control over his powers -- he can dampen the power of the person he chooses and not others (like he did with Sylar and Eden.) However, Peter has little mastery of the power he takes on -- he started reading mind soon after he met Matt even though he wasn't trying. So it's likely that if Peter meets the Haitian, he may adopt the Haitian's ability to suppress other's power without even trying. Which means Peter would use the suppressive power against *the Haitian himself*. But if the Haitian has his own power aimed at himself through Peter, and is effectively neutralized (for the time being anyway), then Peter would no longer have access to the suppressive ability to siphon off... and I have no idea what would happen after that.

'Cept when Matt was trying to mind read him. Feedback loop. As Vonnie said.
