fembuckStill digging Heroes. This weeks episode was fun, and it was nice to see emerging badassery all around.
- First of all, Ali Larter continues to be really, really ridiculously good looking. She had some nice scenes tonight where she got to act as well as look confused and be smokin' hot. I really loved the bathroom chat with Micah. Her resting her head on his shoulder was not just cute, it was frakking cute. Also, his "it's safter to strip in the garage" little man talk and her ensuing 'wtf' face was both sweet and sad. I felt for her knowing that he knew.
I also surprisingly really like the hotel talk with Nathan. Pasdar and Larter have some good chemistry. If she wasn't being blackmailed and he wasn't Magnicient Bastard v2.0 I'd almost like them together. Alas, both of those things exist however, so I don't want to see any more of them. Still nice little scene.
IKIN! How how awesome was it to see Ikin in action. I was really hoping that she was going to put her heel through his skull, and considering the mass graveyard in the desert I'm really actually surprised that she didn't. Still seeing her go all Bristow on that asshats ass was wicked cool. Also, her "If you ever threat OUR son again" comment means that I no longer have to worry about Micah being in danger around Ikin, which makes me happy. Ikin can be as badass and psycho as she wants as long as no one hurts the little man.
- Claire. Dayuuuuum, girl. Gotta hand it to her for keeping cool on the autopsy table. I would not have handled waking up to my ribcage after nearly being raped nearly as well as she did. Hayden really sold the breakdown on the stairs as well, I just wanted to hug her. But I have to say, Claire the Destroyer at the end was just awesome. As soon as she asked to drive I was like "girlfriend is gonna crash that car something fierce!"
-Isaac. Omg, I liked you for the first time ever. I'll admit most of my hatred came from you being a bad actor in the that horrible mini-series "Empire", but finally tonight you have redeemed yourself (somewhat). For some reason the head band is hot, and the whole 'shooting up-vision-painting' sequence was pretty badass. Isaac blindly painting away with his white'd out Storm eyeballs wasn't just cool. It was frakking cool.
- Claire's dad continues to creep me the hell out.
- Peter continues to annoy me.
- Mohinder continues to look fine, but bores me. Though I did like his "he's on the table" line.
- CreepyBaldTelepath continues to be cool, though the fact that he hangs with Claire's dad creeps me out. Also, poor Weiss! Also, bring back Stacy Haiduk! She has pretty eyes.
- And last but not least, Samurai Hiro was wicked. Masi's deep voice at the end totally pwned me. Loved it. I wonder how far in the future that Hiro is from? Also, continue to love Ando, I'm kinda sorry he didn't get to run into his girlcrush Niki though. I'm pretty sure that scene would have been comedy gold.
- Also, I could totally ship Niki/Tina. You know you're close with someone when you share your homicidal fantasies, and fears of psychosis together in the bathroom while half-dressed. Also, Micah totally has two moms, because I swear they are practically raising that child together.
Can't wait until next week ...

Date: 2006-10-18 03:00 am (UTC)It took me about two pages at TWoP before I realized. I was like "who is this ikiN character? I don't remember and ikiN" before I was like "ooooh" so I feel ya. Once I realized however, I became convinced however came up with it was a genius and have been using it ever since.
OHH. Wow, I think we totally missed the other mention. That's why we were so confused. But ok, I guess if he's mentioned her before... Ehhh... Oh Nathan, and your asshattery.
Yeah, last episode at his benefit gala thing he mentioned that his sick wife couldn't be there. Then he proceed to ass blast Peter (not in that way!) by telling everyone and their brother about Peter's non-existant problem with depression. Oh, Nathan such. an. asshat.
Claire/Laura is my next fic ... so don't be stealin' it!!
*removes hand from anywhere near Claire/Laura*
Ohhh, looking forward to it. *rubs hands together in anticipation*
