I don't get it. The Boogeyman--Sylar--sent my parents to heaven, hurt Mohinder, and now he's Mohinder's boyfriend...I think that's what he is, anyway. They live together? Worse? I have to stay with him, because I'm staying with Mohinder, and I have to be nice to him, or I'll upset Mohinder. That's the last thing I want, too. He's--He's my Dad, even if I'm too scared to call him that. The last person with that name died and I never, ever want to see Mohinder or Matt die. I wouldn't be able to be put back together if they did.

I don't feel safe. I wish Matt was here; he'd make me feel safe. I'm going to have to adjust, though, because Mohinder's happy. That's all I ever want for both of them, my Dads, is for them to be happy. I just hope he doesn't start to hate me like the Boogeyman does.

What can you do for fun around here? I'm curious, is all. I mean, if it's a magic castle, then I'm sure you can do a lot of stuff, right?

Yep. All about shooting people. I hear there's a story in there somewhere too.

Hey Moll, I'm Emmett.

[i-findthem.livejournal.com]

[laughs] I've never played those kinds of video games before. Is it really fun?

Hi, Emmett!

[hermonkeyman.livejournal.com]

[the grin is evident in his voice.] Oh yeah. Any game your mom doesn't want you to play is always lots of fun.

You wanna come down to the game room so I can teach you how to blow people up?

[i-findthem.livejournal.com]

[meh. A lot of emotions--all confusing--come up at once and Molly, who is still trying to get over losing a mother, takes a moment before she speaks again] It's probably something Matt and Mohinder wouldn't like me playing--[she can't help but grin at this thought]--so it has to be cool.

Um, I can't. At least, not with someone with me...until it's safe. That's what Mohinder said.

[hermonkeyman.livejournal.com]

[Aww man. Emmett didn't know about that. Sorry, Moll.] Obviously. Any game that makes your... parents annoyed is something worth trying at least once.

Oh. Oh yeah, there's crazy stuff going on right now, huh? I'd offer to protect you, but your dad don't know me from Adam, so I guess that won't help.

[i-findthem.livejournal.com]

[it's okay, Emmett ;D] Of course!

It's okay. I'm sure he'll let me explore without so much supervision once things are calmed down. He's protective of me, is all.

[mothercullen.livejournal.com]

Ignore Emmett, Molly. He thinks rules are useless.

Emmett, it's not a good idea to tell her to do things to annoy her parents.

Esme

[hermonkeyman.livejournal.com]

Aw, mom! I'm just teasing. She looks like she needs someone to make a little fun. 'Specially if her dad's keeping her all locked up like Rapunzel.

Emmett

[mothercullen.livejournal.com]

[she's just slowly shaking her head]

You are a bad influence, you know that.

She should be kept where she is safe. You know the risks, and she's just a little girl.

Esme

[hermonkeyman.livejournal.com]

She's no less in danger from Jazz in her room than she would be with me. I can at least hold my own.

Sometimes kids need a little bit of a bad influence. It makes the good ones look even better.

Emmett

[mothercullen.livejournal.com]

No I suppose that's true. She knows me, we've spoken several times since her arrival.

[i-findthem.livejournal.com]

[she's giggling like crazy--she can't help it!]

He's really funny, though, Esme!

[mothercullen.livejournal.com]

My son has his own sense of humor, thats for sure.

[i-findthem.livejournal.com]

It's a good thing!

[mothercullen.livejournal.com]

But he is right, you would be just as safe out with us, then sitting in your room.

Esme.

[i-findthem.livejournal.com]

I agree--a lot, actually--but I promised Mohinder I wouldn't leave. Not without him or the Boo--[stops herself, because, hi, no one needs to know her life story]--Sylar.

[hermonkeyman.livejournal.com]

I'm told it'll all calm down in about a week, cause the vamp's lost some memories and stuff. But parents will never stop being crazy over-protective.

[i-findthem.livejournal.com]

It's what they do best!

[hermonkeyman.livejournal.com]

It is. You've met my mom, Esme, I see. You should come over. She'll coddle you and bake you cookies.

She doesn't bake us cookies.

[i-findthem.livejournal.com]

She invited me over! Mohinder says I could come, too, when it's safer. Then we can play Halo and eat cookies. It'll be fun!

[hermonkeyman.livejournal.com]

Sounds like a plan! When we've got this guy safely contained, you can come swing by. Mom'll love having someone else to pester.

[Molly lights up like the fourth of July; she remembers how her mother acted--she knows that's what mothers were supposed to do. It makes her feel...nice, really, to know there were so many good memories to go with the not so good. So, yes, Emmett, Molly thinks you're uber cool just for making her lol.]

That's what Mom's are supposed to do!
