3 random Heroes thoughts

[meganbmoore]

1. Which is worse, hooking up with your father's nurse, who you know has a crush on you, immediately after breaking up with your unstable, drug addicted boyfriend, or hooking up with the daughter of your patient who is under extreme stress due to her father's illness and just having ended a bad relationship, who apparently has only you for any sort of emotional support? (yeah, I kinda think Peter wins the award there...)

2. I have realized that "save the cheerleader, save the world" doesn't mean "save the cheerleader so she can help save the world," but rather "save the cheerleader so that guy who eats BBBRRRRRAAAAAIIIIINNNNNSSSSSSS won't effectively become immortal." Sad now.

 3. It is also my official opinion that if you can defend Mohinder in any way, shape or form, you officially give up the right to call any female character in existence TSTL. Ever. Though at least he is pretty to look at and fun to facepalm to. (Also, Peter: almost as bad. And less cute. I think Nathan stole all the brains in the family and didn't leave any for Peter.)

Yes, but it's worse with him than with everyone else combined. I mean, even Niki has the benefit of pretty much only ever (as of the beginning of the series onward) having 2 bad choices to choose from, whereas Mohinder has every choice imaginable.

I'd be happier about Mohinder in the TSTL role if I hadn't spent the last 2 years seeing him praised a lot, if you know what I mean.

Your Heroes-watching friends & associates are clearly different from mine! We call him "Mohimbo" for a reason! Seriously, this is the first I've ever heard of people praising his decision-making skills.

Peter Pet is even stupider, though. Trust me on this one.

Some of it is personal f-list, but a lot of it is more bleeding over from other corners of the internet and shared fandom places.

I am pondering a poll "who makes worse decisions: Mohinder, Peter, or Miaka? And please remember that Miaka is 14."

Who's Miaka?

[meganbmoore.livejournal.com]

Miaka is...possibly the most reviled anime/manga heroine ever. (Not by me, but by the masses.) She's a 14 year old girl who goes to another world that's based oon ancient China where she's the Destined Priestess who will save the country. Err...she's the extreme of the genki (hyper and outgoing and usually not bright) heroine type and a lot of the series is a mass of her making bad decisions and not thinking things through. But remember the part where she's a 14-year-old in another world, as opposed to an adult in their own world? I think the bell curve lets her be the smartest in the bunch.

The answer is always Peter.
