(The note is unsigned, but written in a scrawl that may be familiar to Noah.)
Bennet,
Suppose you had something to do with the bleeding hat putting me in a dorm covered in pink? Don't worry - you won't find me there. Or anywhere else. So rest easy, mate. Just go about your life and don't think about the blood on your hands.
Sandra,
Do me a favor. Play this for your husband.
(Enclosed is a CD of the best of Andrew Lloyd Webber.)
Return owl, unsigned.
Date: 2007-08-28 09:24 pm (UTC)My hands are looking very nice these days, thank you.P.S. You're in a bright pink dorm? Nice one. What did you do to piss off the Hat that badly?
Return owl, angry scrawl
Date: 2007-08-28 09:55 pm (UTC)What? Used bleach did you? Industrial solvent? Can't say my hands are clean yet, so don't have a clue in hell how yours are.P.S. What, me? Full of charm and grace, I am. A pleasure to be around. No clue.
Except it kept going on about threesomes. Weird place you've got here.Return owl, in usual handwriting.
Date: 2007-08-28 10:03 pm (UTC)I'd like to think that shooting Thompson in the head and doing my little part in helping save New York from a nuclear blast helped a bit.Yes, I think I see now why the Hat made that decision. The residents of the sparkly pink dorm might have a few things to learn from your bubbly personality.
Threesomes, really? Did I mention that the hat is insane?Return owl, scrawl legible only to someone who would know it
Date: 2007-08-28 10:17 pm (UTC)...You shot Thompson? Good on you. God, you just can't stop, can you? And don't take credit where it's not due, Bennet, it makes you look petty.Damn straight. Except I'm sodding allergic to pink, so the residents are on their own.
Thanks for the heads up, friend. Bit of warning wouldn't have been amiss.Hang on - are you implying I can't have threesomes? Because I so could if I wanted to. Except that most people are wastes of time, and the ones that aren't tend to shoot you in the back.Return owl, still calmly written
Date: 2007-08-28 10:25 pm (UTC)except for what looks to be a convenience store mislabeled "Food Libraries"having a nice cup of coffee and a muffin.Yes, he was trying to kill a telepathic cop I was working with at the time. I won't say I wasn't happy to do it. And I said little part. It was mostly Nathan, Peter, and the Nakamura boy.I'm sure your dorm-mates feel nothing but regret over the loss of your singularly shining company.
Yes, I was going to warn you while you were punching me in the face. I'm implying nothing about your desirability to one or more people, though I will say that you'll probably be luckier if you get rid of that "homeless crazy" look you're so fond of at the moment.Return owl, Claude has gotten sick of quills and is now using an ink pen. Still scribbly, though.
Date: 2007-08-28 10:48 pm (UTC)Please tell me you've branched out from Banana Nut.Got your feet up and the little woman ironing your ties, too? Little vacation before you go back out and hunt more people down like dogs?You're working with my kind again? And protecting them? My, my things have changed. Got yourself a little grasshopper on the shoulder now, or was it just more convenient to shoot Thompson than the other guy?
And it was mostly Peter. End of story.
I'll just send them to you - you can tell them what they're missing.
Hey, I've got good reason to disappear, friend. Being shot and left for dead will do that. 'Homeless crazy' am I? Well I know how things work, and being no one is the only way to get past you bastards. Least I'm not a smug son of a bitch on a self righteous horse trampling anyone who gets in my way.Return owl, starting to get on the scribbly side
Date: 2007-08-28 11:00 pm (UTC)There is NOTHING wrong with banana nut. NOTHING.I tried to explain this earlier, I'm not going back. I'm in this for Claire, and Sandra, andnotLyle. I'm here to do what I can to learn how I can help them better. I'm done with hunting people unless they've done something to one of us first.Parkman was a decent guy. He's in the hospital at the moment, and I haven't heard from him. Sylar TK'd some bullets into him shortly after he slammed me into a wall and broke my arm in three places, don't you remember? Oh wait, you weren't there.That's okay, you don't have to try and impress me with the sheer number of new friends you're making.
That's all it ever is these days with you, isn't it? I feel bad about it. It's not like I've been parading that information all around the school. I might be smug, but I also bathe regularly.Return owl. If handwriting can be smug for making unflappable people start to scribble, this is
Date: 2007-08-29 12:37 am (UTC)Except it's boring. And predictable. And blueberry is better.Sorry if I don't believe you. Bad habit of mine, really, not trusting men who'll shoot their partners.Yeah, I've met Sylar. Nice work the Company did, letting him out and about with the normal folks. Do you count that blood on your hands as well, or have you had to stop seeing the deaths you didn't directly cause in order to save your precarious hold on sanity?
And who says I wasn't?
Regular Mr. Popularity, I am.
ALL IT EVER IS? You have NO IDEA, you worthless, two-faced, idiotic little man. You feel bad? I TRUSTED YOU. I got IN the BLOODY CAR because I thought you were MORE than just a little automaton brainwashed into believing every company line fed into your thick skull.
I bathe. Just because I don't show up on most people's radars doesn't mean I can't steal a nice, hot shower when I need it.
Return owl, parts of it looking like the writer was about to snap the quill that wrote it
Date: 2007-08-29 12:58 am (UTC)They're delicious. Blueberry is an inferior muffin.(There is a rather large block of text angrily scribbled out and nearly illegible. The words "accident" and "stubborn jackass" are barely visible among the scratches and blotches of ink.)
Go. To. Hell.
Return owl. The writing is a barely legible scrawl
Date: 2007-08-29 01:15 am (UTC)Well, I'd promise to never talk to you again, but your wife seems to like me just fine.
Fuck you.
Return owl, the message may as well have been written with an Xacto knife dipped in ink.
Date: 2007-08-29 01:17 am (UTC)Return owl, totally chill handwriting
Date: 2007-08-29 01:34 am (UTC)Return owl
Date: 2007-08-29 01:42 am (UTC)YOU SUCK.Do you have any new food allergies or preferences that I should let her know about?
Return owl
Date: 2007-08-29 01:43 am (UTC)Told you I was charming.What, you don't remember? I'm hurt.
Return owl
Date: 2007-08-29 01:49 am (UTC)I'm a heartless bastard, not a mental defective, remember?Return owl
Date: 2007-08-29 01:59 am (UTC)You're both. I always did think more of you than everyone else.Re: Return owl
Date: 2007-08-29 02:02 am (UTC)You keep saying that. Think I'm too stupid to pick up on it? Oh right--I'm mentally defective now.Return owl
Date: 2007-08-29 02:22 am (UTC)Mate, I always thought you were a bit slow. Good egg, but slow. Now you're just a bastard and slow.Return owl

Date: 2007-08-29 03:14 am (UTC)She's already going to be wondering about the CDs. You're welcome, by the way.
Careful, mate, that's my mum you're talking about. Not my fault I just know how to treat a woman.Re: Return owl
Date: 2007-08-29 03:16 am (UTC)I really didn't want to know that about you and your mother, Claude.Return owl
Date: 2007-08-29 03:19 am (UTC)Not what I meant and you know it, bloody pervert.Return owl
Date: 2007-08-29 03:25 am (UTC)remembereddidn't have to do that. I'd apologize for the Carousel CD but she meant well.Next time don't make it so easy, then.Return owl
Date: 2007-08-29 03:42 am (UTC)Of course I remembered, how could I not?Yeah, well. How else were you going to ride off to drag another innocent person to their vivisection if you didn't have your road trip music?Eh, what can you do? Besides, June is Busting Out All Over is a classic.
You just have your mind in the gutter.Return owl
Date: 2007-08-29 03:54 am (UTC)Thanks. The cover got torn on the old one andI don't know, maybe I could haul you along and you could talk them to death first, as a mercy killing.Return owl
Date: 2007-08-29 04:32 am (UTC)Yeah, your son, Sandra told me. God, your son. I'd forgottenMy dazzling conversational skills are killer, I know, but if you think that Imiss riding around with youam going to ever get in a car with you again, you're smoking something.Return owl
Date: 2007-08-29 04:36 am (UTC)I know, all those years of nothing and thenYes, because every time I get in a car with someone I have to shoot them. I don't know how my kids have survived my taking them to school for so long.I(Here there is a few words' worth of scribbles obscuring the rest of this.)Return owl
Date: 2007-08-29 04:39 am (UTC)I knew you'd be a great dad, youHey, how do I know it hasn't become a habit? Maybe it's just people who consider youa brothera partner? Or possibly only on bridges? Too risky, mate, sorry.Re: Return owl
Date: 2007-08-29 04:42 am (UTC)...thanks. Really.Ah yes, the siren song of bridges. Because Lord knows I can't drive over one without the urge to shoot everything that moves with absolutely no provocation.Return owl
Date: 2007-08-29 04:47 am (UTC)Well, you managed not to kill Claire in the first week, so it was a pretty safe bet.See, and here all this time I'd thought it was me. Should have known it was the damn bridge.Oh, yeah, and the fact that you're a bastard. That point can't be forgotten.
Return owl
Date: 2007-08-29 04:59 am (UTC)I think a lot of that might have been her and Sandra's doing more than mine. You were whatWell, it's not like you're going to let anyone forget it. I might as well start making business cards.Re: Return owl
Date: 2007-08-29 05:06 am (UTC)What what?Oh, that'll be charming. 'Noah Bennet. Bounty man and all round bastard. Call for vivisection pick-up service. Does not do bridges.'
