I don't like that there's this deus ex blood out there now... It feels like a cheat.
My biggest gripe in this category is Peter. Simple exposure to another power and it becomes his own, to use at will indefinitely? At least Sylar has to kill to "earn" his power, but Peter? He could absorb Molly's power, than locate and teleport in and out of every place with a powered human and absorb every power out there. And if the power's not out there anymore, hell, he could jump back in time and get it anyway (like Linderman's healing touch).
Seriously, if Peter had half a brain, he'd be a god by now.

They seemed to have dumbed him down since he lost the emo lock. I didn't think he started out so stupid.
My fervent wish is that they spend a bit of time overthinking the powers because it's not as much fun for me to overthink them if the writers don't.

All his brains were in his hair!
I blame the Haitian. I think he scrambled Peter's brains.

Maybe he felt rushed.
"Okay, take away his name and family...that he has superpowers...uh...fuck it, just wipe 85% of his higher functions. As long as he can breathe and piss, I call it good enough."

"'Putting on a shirt.' Nah, he can live without that. I'm done."
This is so me. I don't know what it says about me, but there it is.
It says that you are in very fine company. Slap my hand now!
I am not a Spuffy devotee, but I did enjoy the UST between the two when Spike was a badass villain and Buffy was a contemptuous yet kinda turned on good girl. I enjoy the Mylar in the same way. The fact that I often find myself yelling, "Just kiss him, you fool!" when the Petrelli brothers are on screen makes me much more uncomfortable than my Mylar love. (And when Peter and Claire had scenes together, I might've yelled it, too. Just a little. Maybe.)

I actually think that a lot of this season was contrived to separate Peter and CLaire, and Peter and Nathan for this very reason. Also, I kinda ship Peter and Claire. Especially if they are now going to live forever.
I don't think Peter will, since he seems to have trouble using more than one power at a time.

He seems to have trouble consciously using more thann one power at a time. But the healing thing seems to be automatic.
