Title: Countdown
Rating: PG? Slight language, mention of violence (completely non-graphic).
Spoilers/Warnings: Slight language, completely non-graphic mention of violence. ;] Spoilers through Powerless (that was this season's finale, right?) plus speculation for the third season. But it's pure guesswork, so.
Challenge: Save The Heroes
Summary: Conversing with Bob was a kind of art -- if you didn't sound casually interested, he'd accuse you of being emotionally involved. There is a moment in which they look at each other, and then Bob shakes his head. Bennett readjusts to life with the Company.
Notes: I didn't see that the amnesty challenge had been closed, so I brushed the dust off of this and finished it. :]

I don't remember who first advanced a couple of the theories I threw in here, just that I've seen them around, and I like them a lot. Oh fannish geniuses of the internets, you never cease to amaze. ;]

( Five hours and counting. )

The Amnesty Challenge went on a bit longer than originally intended, but it will be ending this Wednesday. If you have any last minute entries, post them before then!

Title: Get Dressed Let's Go
Author: Rainne
Characters: Sylar, Mohinder, semi-OFC, a mention of Maury
Rating: PG-13
Word Count: 1,482
Disclaimer: *checks pockets* Heroes, Heroes... Nope, afraid not. *sighs*
A/N: I never thought I would actually write this- it was just a silly idea The Fratellis' "Creeping Up the Backstairs" kept giving me every time I heard it. For the Lyrics challenge.
Summary: Pre-slash high school!AU, though pretty much without the high school. OOC!Sylar, since he's not a murdering sociopath yet. Anyway, goodie two shoes Mohinder meets bad boy Gabriel.

( You're going to make a mother's nightmare out of me, aren't you? )

Have fun and get flashficcing! Any questions feel free to leave a comment on this post or PM me, but please be sure to ask before the 9th, as I'll be out of town until the 18th. :)

This week's challenge is What Next?

This could include:

• What might happen in the next season? You can write a scene from the possible season 3, or a scene from the season 3 you'd like to see happen.


• What happened right after the season two finale?


• Any broader implications of "what next?", such as what will the Heroes do once they've been revealed? Or what will a specific character do once they'd achieved a certain goal (for example, what might Mohinder dedicate his research to once he's found the cure to the virus? Etc.).

The prompt is pretty loose, so play with it as you will. You have a week to respond. Any questions, feel free to comment to this post or contact me via PM, and suggestions for future challenges are welcome at any time.

This week's challenge is the word regrets.

re·gret /rɪˈgrɛt/ [ri-gret] verb, -gret·ted, -gret·ting, noun
–verb (used with object)

1. to feel sorrow or remorse for (an act, fault, disappointment, etc.): He no sooner spoke than he regretted it.
2. to think of with a sense of loss: to regret one's vanished youth.

( More definitions, origin, etc. )

As always, feel free to use the challenge word as you see fit--within the fic, as a thematic inspiration, etc.

You have a week to respond. Any questions, feel free to comment to this post or contact me via PM, and suggestions for future challenges are welcome at any time.

This week the challenge is an image. See it here:

[ Double Helix DNA strand. ]

You have a week to respond, and may use the prompt however you see fit—literally, figuratively, metaphorically. Your creativity is the only limit. Any questions, feel free to comment to this post or contact me via PM, and suggestions for future challenges are welcome at any time.

Challenge #19 will be ending tomorrow when the next challenge is posted, so if you wanted to write for it, be sure to do it before then!
