"It's good to see you too," he said, a bright smile on his face. "You look great, Claire. You're all grown up. I know that sounds corny but it's true. I saw you in New York which you don't remember of course and you were seventeen. You're what now, 22?" Nathan had tried to do the math when he'd seen Claire on the network and realized they were from different points on the timeline. He didn't want to think about the fact that to this Claire, he was dead and before that Sylar had been living in his body.
"How long have you been here? I'm still getting used to how quiet it is after New York. Even though I lived there anyway, it seems to have gotten much busier between the time I left and 2013." He shook his head. "So much has happened, it's nuts. I know that seeing me alive must be a shock but I hope you're happy about it and not disappointed." From what he'd seen, Nathan knew their relationship had been rocky near the end of his life and he hoped that Claire wanted to try and make things better here in Lincoln River.
