Well, we haven't done that in awhile. Peter, you know when we're doing a group teleport, you have to think of the same place I... Peter? Claude? Oh, ha ha. You assholes should know you can't hide from me by... now?

Guys?

Shit. Shit, shit, shit. Mohinder is going to kill me.

	Fucking Petrelli lineage. It seems to manage to fuck them all over eventually. Molly, no. There had to be other options. Me, Peter, Micah, Claude... Any of us could have done something. We were in this together. There are always other options. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

And everyone else in the process.

You think I wanted to blow my brains out? I wanted to finish college. I wanted to meet someone and maybe fall in love one day. I wanted to have a life instead of this constant fighting that's been going on since I was a child. It's unfair. But life has never been fair. And there was nobody else. You and Peter were gone. Nobody knows if you're even alive. Claude was in the wind. Micah had been taken by Matt and nobody could get to him. My father was dead. There was no one else and no other option and I did what I had to do. My life is not more important than protecting those children and saving the world. I died so everyone could live. So don't judge me for it.

	Come on, Molly. You know me better than that. What room do I have to judge anything? Especially when it sounds like things ended up getting leaps and bounds worse than where we even left it. I never thought any of us would end up backed into a corner where there wasn't someone else there to pull us out... (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	That's in the past. If anyone had cause to hold that against you, it would be me. And I don't. Well, I'd been on my own for almost a year at that point, so I'd gotten used to relying on myself. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I know, Molly, but that doesn't change my awareness of my position in relation to everyone else. I've not really got a leg to stand on when it comes to judging other people's behavior. Especially when it's for noble reasons instead of destructive ones. You didn't... You didn't go back to Chennai? Or was it not safe to stay there? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Gabriel. You've changed. You've made an effort and you've become a better person. People can't hold your mistakes against you forever.

How could I? Renautus would have found me there. It would have put people in danger. I'd already lost my father. I didn't want to lose anyone else.

Renautus killed him, Gabriel. And worse, they made it look like he was a terrorist. There was a summit. It was supposed to be a step toward building a positive relationship between Evos and humans. They blew it up and framed him for it. So many people were hurt or killed.

Claire was intent on trying. ...But I guess that doesn't really matter now. ~~God~~

We knew they were building to something, that they were laying the groundwork, but we couldn't figure out what it was that they were working towards. That's so much worse than anything we'd expected.

Shapeshifter or an illusionist? Why was the world still so trusting of everything they saw when they were well aware that there were more than a few ways for these things to be faked now?

Claire has always been...Claire.

They're killing Evos unless they can use their powers to their advantage. I don't know why, but they're willing to let the world burn to wipe us out.

Shapeshifter, I would say, since there was video. Illusions don't exactly work through tech. As to why...they wanted someone to blame. And the brown guy who has been at the forefront of Evo research was an easy target. It allowed to Renautus to blame someone "believable" and discredit his work at the same time. As much as there's bigotry against Evos, it doesn't erase good old fashioned racism.

I need you to do something for me.

That's... about what it amounts to, yeah. If she hadn't been so stubborn, maybe we could have gotten her into a position where... No. No, it's not worth thinking about.

Better to purify the world and start again than figure out a way to harmonize. That's always been the mantra of the extremist, particularly those that can shape their message as somehow being beneficial.

And it didn't help that they're already framed the Petrelli Movement as a terrorist organization even though we never hurt anyone. Well, never hurt anyone in a way that wasn't purely for self-defense. So they had the foundational backing there. Just put a few words in his mouth, and we're good... I hate people.

What is it?

Claire never really understood it. It's not that she never had things that were difficult, but at the end of the day she was still a pretty blonde cheerleader from a loving family with a photogenic power. It colored her view of things. She didn't see the way the rest of us did that the world is fundamentally unfair.

Exactly. Unless the people you want to wipe out have some use to you.

People are the worst.

I still have this Renautus tech implanted and I want it done.

Or that people, no matter what they say, don't always have your best interests at heart. She was still painfully naive for someone in their mid-twenties. Honestly, part of me blames Noah for that, trying to protect her from everything. She never had to face the worst the world had to offer.

Well, unless you count me. But even there, she survived mostly unscathed.

What? Molly, why didn't you... That should have been the first thing you brought up! Where are you? Where is it? I'm guessing since you haven't tried to take it out yourself it's somewhere risky.
