See, my fic!baby was inspired by an incredibly intense, very vivid dream I had the night I spent reading Drastically Redefining Protocol (an absofuckinglutely wonderful Merlin/Arthur AU fic) until 1am. Strangely (or not so, if you really know me) it wasn't Merlin/Arthur; instead it was *gasp* Peter/Sylar. Now, it's definitely changed since then but I'll give you the bare bones.
First off, a little background. It begins two years after Volume 4, with some added spoilers from Volume 5 (such as the character Emma). In this universe the slash relationships that MIGHT HAVE happened actually happened, such as Peter/Claude, Peter/Adam and Sylar/Mohinder (all of which are mentioned). It also references ALOT of chick flicks/romcoms. In fact it has taken on the plotline of a romcom, not unintentionally either. I'm a fan of the romcom and I will make obscure references to romcoms/chick flicks many people have never seen before. And I will use Peter and Sylar to make them. Yes, I am shameless.
So, Sylar sacrificed himself to save the world two years ago and someone brought him back from the brink of death. All the so-called 'good guys' have accepted him and helped him reintegrate himself into society. Noah and Angela even wrangled him a job at a local processing plant, as an engineer. Everything's pretty much perfect...except that a year ago he realised he was in love with one Peter Petrelli. And now his life is utterly fucked up because, in killing Nathan, he killed every chance he had with Peter. It's official, his life is shit.
Unbeknownst to him, Peter feels the same way. Ever since that Christmas night about a year ago, when Sylar sang 'Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas' and fell asleep on his lap, he's been lusting after a certain reformed serial killer. When he visits the man the morning after Sylar has been getting drunk with Mohinder (in order to get some advice about his shit life, no advice forthcoming unfortunately), he accidentally tells him he thinks of him as a brother. Taking matters into his own hands, Peter confronts Sylar at one of Claire's numerous parties and tells him how he really feels.
Sexytimes ensue, with some rather random slapstick stuff, usually because Peter is a klutz, although Sylar is a runner up. Ah well, that's love, I guess.
However when one of Peter's ex-boyfriends returns, trouble ensues and an obstacle is placed in the middle of our boys' pathway. Expect drunk encounters in bars, Sylar's efforts to pick up strangers, Lyle's bad flirting, an appearance by Luke, Peter singing a song, maybe a Say Anything scene with the radio and much more.
Will it end well? Have you been reading any of this? I'm a sucker for happy endings, possibly why I'm a fan of the romantic comedy. Feel good fun.
And now I'll leave you with a picture of the lovely men :)
