Summary: Peter reflects on his life and his destiny.
Quote:

“Claude, please. I

(I’m going to die. I don’t want to die. Please, Claude. Damnit, help me control this)

Really need your help.”

“Tell you what: Go outside. Walk around. Don’t get yourself mugged. Come back in twenty minu
tes. If you still feel like you need to start learning tonight after that, wake me up again.”


Title: Karma Receivable
Author: Alien Explosion
Length: Short
Summary: 1996. Claude Rains makes a bet with Mr. Bennet. But a certain teenage watchmaker ruins the odds.
Quote:

“I believe that’s your way of saying, ‘I could’ve done a much better job even though I’m not a bloody invisible man.’”

“I never said that.”

“It’s not a word-for-word translation, I don’t have the Pocket Dictionary of Bennet on me. Look, if you’re getting bored with the tactics, why don’t you run em yourself? Bag the bloody housewife all by your lonesome. Go on then.”


Title: Like a Thief in the Night
Author: Misato
Length: Short
Summary: DL never told Nikki, but he knew about his powers long before he wound up in prison.
Quote: "If you're going to shoot me, you're going to shoot me. I can't do anything about that." DL could hear his heart pounding, there was so much adrenaline pumping through his veins. "You can turn invisible."

Title: Largo
Author: leaffymomo
Genre: Adventure
Length: Medium
Summary: "You're hiding one of them." Not just one, but two. The reason that Claude was removed from Primatech. [contains swearing]
Quote: He's rather antsy. He fiddles his fingers, taps his foot. He flicks the knob that rolls down the window. He drums his nails on the armrest. Bennet, next to him, glances at him the way fathers sometimes glance at their children when they want them to stop being such an annoyance. Claude glances back and puts his hands in his lap. Bennet chuckles.

Title: Everyone's Encore
Author: Alien Explosion
Genre: Adventure (AU)
Length: Long
Spoilers: Season 1
Summary: [Post S1, Ensemble] Four months later. Despite what everyone thinks, Nathan isn’t dead. And neither is the Company.
Quote:

“We’ll look for him together, Hiro,” Peter said determinedly, putting a hand on Hiro's shoulder. “We’ll find Nathan, don’t worry.”

“Screw Nathan,” came a voice from behind Peter. Hiro saw him twist around, and suddenly, he vanished, like a ghost.


Title: Believe
Author:
EmileNShook
Genre: Angst/ H/C
Length: Short
Spoilers: "Unexpected"
Summary:
Peter mourns the loss of someone important to him, but finds hope in someone he didn't think he would.
Quote: All is still and silent behind door number 10. For once, the sounds of the traffic haven’t found their way inside. No voices are carried down the hall. The television’s static. It’s lonely…but it’s the only place he’s got…he’s got no one to turn to.
