Peter shared Hiro Timestop not only before touching him but before seeing him. I'm pretty sure he can get powers via simple proximity, though we don't know the distance.
Wash: Well, I wash my hands of it. It's a hopeless case. I'll read a nice poem at the funeral. Something with imagery. Zoe: You could lock the door and keep the power-hungry maniac at bay. Wash: Oh, no, I'm starting to like this poetry idea now. Here lies my beloved Zoe, my autumn flower, somewhat less attractive now she's all corpsified and gross...

"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"
Did Isaac tell Peter about his future-painting when they first met? Because that's when he went back and drew the future in a hospital bed.
Did Peter have his dream about flying before or after meeting Isaac? Becuase that might be a way he's expressing that power.

"I'm useless alone." // "We're all useless alone. It's a good thing you're not alone."
Peter was dreaming about flying at the very beginning of the show.

didn\'t HRG actually shoot him several times, but he got away really fast?
Right, we don\'t have an explicit explanation for that, yet.
The online comic deals with that. Syler-as-Narrator says, \"These bullet holes wouldn\'t be a problem if I\'d gotten that cheerleader. Her daddy was a damn good shot for a guy who needs corrective lenses. But not good enough.\" And there\'s a frame of him performing surgery on himself to get the bullets out (Hey -- If Riley Finn could do it, then so can Syler).
t edit [link] It\'s the one called \"Road Kill\"

What is even happening?
I've wondered where Peter got the prophetic dreams from that first got him thinkingobsessing about flying. Do you think that it could be that he was in contact with someone who had prophecy dream powers, like, say, Simone's dying father?
I love this, Theo. I've decided it's canon.
That makes me consider how Nathan was able to get away from HRG and "the Haitian" - I think "the Haitian" wanted Nathan to fly away.
Since he seems to be in cohoots with Mama Petrelli, I think you're right, le nubian.
Peter didn't touch Hiro or Matt, did he? Or Claude, at first. That is, he certainly saw Claude before he touched him, and I think joined him in invisibility.
Maybe it depends on the nature of the power. Even if Peter didn't touch Hiro, Hiro's power touched Peter -- in that Hiro came back into Peter's time, and stopped time for the place where Peter was (but not for Peter, himself). And Matt's mind was touching Peter's, if you see what I mean. Claude grabbed Peter and asked him how he could see him, so I do think it's possible (can't remember) that Claude touched Peter before Peter gained blinvisibility.
I'm also one of Victor's goodly people, given all we've seen.I don't understand. I've been trying to parse this for five minutes, P-C. Please to explain for the aged.

Thanks, Jon. I wasn't caught up in Boxed Set, yet.
Sorry, P-C.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
I've wondered where Peter got the prophetic dreams from that first got him thinkingobsessing about flying. Do you think that it could be that he was in contact with someone who had prophecy dream powers, like, say, Simone's dying father?
From the start I thought Simone's father was the source of the dreams and/or flying. When they revealed that Nathan could fly I wasn't sure if her father was still the dream catalyst or just a red herring.
