What do we call Peter's native power? Hero-sucking?
Empathy? What do they call Rogue's power? Absorption?
Peter met Sylar at Homecoming.
If Peter doesn't know Sylar has a power, is he able to use it?
No studying? Damn! Next thing they'll tell me is I'll have to eat jelly doughnuts or sleep with a supermodel to get things done around here. I ask you, how much can one man give?

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

I'm pretty sure that Peter was tossing lockers aside instinctively in "Homecoming" - if he ever remembers that he may be able to do it again.

Woe to the fucking wicked.
He's used telekinesis since then, to stop the thing Claude was hitting him with. He, himself, attributed it to Sylar.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

I think Peter's power is probably best termed Mimicry. Rogue absorbed powers, but the absorption was (except for Ms Marvel) temporary, and took the power from the absorbee.
I want Peter to go around noticing that clocks aren't keeping proper time.

That would be damn annoying after a while. No wonder Sylar was so cranky!

The DC Heroes RPG called it Adaptation. (As applied to the robot villain Amazo duplicating the powers of the entire Justice League.)

Woe to the fucking wicked.
Claude called him and empath, but I think that was largely meant to connect to the whole emotional connection thing.
DX, that would be cool.

Yeah, I think that's his nature rather than a power. Unless he picked it up from an actual empath.

Woe to the fucking wicked.
I took it to refer, in Claude's use, that it did refer to his power, just in "you are a _____" terms, rather than "your power is _______"

Trust my rage
Peter met Sylar at Homecoming.
I know, but Sylar was way more powerful with many more powers at the end. He also met Sylar in Mohinder's apartment. It's hard to see how Peter can't not always have the advantage. He will always have his enemies powers; he just has to realize it.

I wonder if Peter got all the powers that Sylar had or just the one that he was manifesting at the time.
