heartofmurder and I are getting along a lot better. We haven't had a big fight in over a week. I didn't think that was possible, but the talk with
vampire_sylar and
notabadguy really helped put things in perspective. We talked a lot on our own too, and we've discovered one of our biggest issues is that we both grew up being told we were wrong or that we weren't good enough. Between his mom and Arthur it's amazing we can have any kind of relationship with other people let alone each other.
I did something stupid though. It was a spur of the moment thing. I went to New York to check out an apartment in my old building. I love our house in Maine, but I miss the city. So we discussed spending a couple of nights a week in NYC. Well @flyboypetrelli has been staying with
drgabrielgray and
vampire_peter since he got sucked into the Vortex, so I offered him an escape route. I asked Nathan to be my roommate in the new place. Nathan told me I should check with Sylar first, but I didn't.
I fell on the old - it's better to ask for forgiveness than permission - a motto that my real brother taught me.
We had a little bickering about it, but Sylar was finally OK about it. I think I've figured out how to handle him when he's grumpy. The best move is not to get defensive and start snarling back. Our empathy feeds off of each other, and we blow up. Instead I said I was sorry (more than a few times), and promised not to let my emotions get ahead of my brain. He said fat chance I'd be able to do that since I lead with my heart not my head.
Yesterday Sylar and Nathan talked. It went much better than the three of us shooting pool. I think Sylar finally gets that Nathan's family, but he's not a threat to our relationship. The only threat to us is us.
