Over on LJ, Vonnie (I think it was Vonnie) was speculating about this potential "older" generation of heroes. Daddy!Sulu would seem to be a prime candidate.

Boxed Set, Vol. III: "That Can't Be Good..."
A topic for the discussion of Farscape, Smallville, and Due South. Beware possible invasions of Stargate, Highlander, or pretty much any other "genre" show that captures our fancy. Expect Adult Content and discussion of the Big Gay Sex.
Whitefont all unaired in the U.S. ep discussion, identifying it as such, and including the show and ep title in blackfont.
Blackfont is allowed after the show has aired on the east coast.
This is NOT a general TV discussion thread.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
Dude. Micah is totally Hundred from Ex Machina.
Yep. He totally is. A friend of mine pointed this out when he first manifested his power.

I can't be the only person who was waiting for her to make a big "X" out of masking tape. Or maybe "HG."

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Ah, UPS has delivered more Dresden books. And I have pizza. Nothing else will be accomplished tonight!

Does every ATM have a security camera watching it? Maybe he picked machines that were camera-less.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I don't see any reason for him to bother avoiding cameras--I'd guess he could easily disable them if he knows they're there.

Kiss me, my girl, before I'm sick.
Over on LJ, Vonnie (I think it was Vonnie) was speculating about this potential "older" generation of heroes.
Yeap, that was me. We know of at least two heroes (Claude and Meredith) whose powers were likely active 15-20 years ago. The prevailing thought is that the current batch of the supers were "activated" by some event, right? They started coming into their powers around the same time, unless you posit that Claire was "special" already when she was a baby, and that was how she survived the fire. Seems a bit of a stretch, since if the regenerative power was active all her life, she'd have questioned it a long time ago (especially given how freakin' accident prone she is. Seriously, who knew being a cheerleader could be so deadly?)
Anway, Claude, by implication, made it sound like there is a LARGE number of heroes underground somewhere. If he knew several *empaths* personally, then he probably have encountered several regenerators, pyrokinetics, space-time-manipulators, and precogs, etc. And since there are only 32 or 35 or whatever names on the list (presumably the current batch), all those supers Claude knows must be from earlier points of activation, perhals a generation ago. Right now, I'm assuming that Claire's father, if it's not Nathan, is also an earlier generation super. Wouldn't be surprised if Mr. Nakamura has power himself as well, given that the power seems to have a large hereditary component.
