14* Recommended by @/{{Gamebird}}
15* ''Comments'': Fantastic series of fanfictions based on the adventures of Hesam Malik and Peter Petrelli as paramedics in New York. Hesam has, all told, probably ten minutes of screen time over the entire TV show, but GoldSeven creates an entire cast of believable, realistic [=EMT=]s and fills in missing moments throughout the show, whenever Peter was shown at work. She also has drawings (really good ones!) of the characters and a glossary of EMT terms. One of the few fics that teaches you as you read it.

29* Recommended by @/{{Tabby}}
30* ''Status'': Complete
31* ''Pairing(s)'': Mohinder/"Nathan", others
32* ''Synopsis'': A FixFic for the FridgeLogic question of why Matt didn't realize that it wasn't really Nathan in the Oval Office.
33* ''Comments'': Yes, it was adequately explained in the show, but even though the intent behind it bugs me the story is still awesome and still works perfectly well with canon. It's got Matt's voice down better than almost any other story I've seen, and I am damn picky about my Matt fic. Contains a male/male relationship, but only one mildly explicit sexual reference.

37* ''Status'': Complete
38* ''Synopsis'': This superb story fills in all the missing moments of the fifth season show The Wall, showing more realistically and completely how two enemies could become allies. It is a fascinating, engaging and at times wrenching psychological journey. Peter and Sylar, no slash.
39* ''Comments'': There is a sequel called [[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/5765957/1/bPoenitentia_b Poenitentia]] (Complete) by the same author that is also outstanding.

44* ''Pairings'': Claire/Adam
45* ''Synopsis'': Adam and Claire, locked up in a Primatech cell.
46* ''Comments'': Very similar to the below-mentioned ''Unmade'', ''Cell'', is a hard fic to classify. Is it a DarkFic? There are too many comedic/cute moments interspersed between the TearJerker moments for that. Is it a comedy? Too much of a TearJerker. Is it a romance? A little yes, a little no. However you classify it, ''Cell'' is a definite TearJerker that any ''Heroes'' fan should read. Warning:[[spoiler:Character Death.]]

51* ''Pairings'': Claire/Adam (Friendship)
52* ''Synopsis'': In an AU where Linderman's plan to destroy New York led to a Nuclear Apocalypse, Adam and Claire meet over a fire. If you're going to live forever, no sense in doing it alone.
53* ''Comments'': A rather touching story that plays on the similarities between Adam and Claire, who is cranked into high [[TheWoobie Woobie]] levels for this story. A great read.

91* Recommended by: @/CausalityStar
92* ''Status'': Complete
93* ''Pairing(s)'': One-sided Sylar/Claire (not really pairing-centric)
94* ''Synopsis'': No one can take that much neglect without cracking, and Lyle is no exception. Herein he chronicles his love of weed, his experimentation with tights, and the forging of one unholy alliance.
95* ''Comments'': A very funny yet slightly angsty fic where Lyle is a stoner who must deal with constantly being overshadowed by his sister. Lyle also becomes obsessed with tights and capes and forms an odd partnership with Sylar. Sylar spends most of his free time stealing powers or obsessing over Claire (hence the one-sided Sylar/Claire). Told in the form of diary entries written by Lyle.

99* ''Status'': Complete
100* ''Pairing(s)'': One-sided Sylar/Claire (Like the previous fic, this one pokes fun at Sylar's obsession with Claire.)
101* ''Synopsis'': A squeal/companion fic to "Diary Of Lyle Or Is It Larry". This explains what Lyle was really up to during the "Thanksgiving" episode of season 4, because no one actually has school on a public holiday. Told in the form of Lyle's diary entries.
102* ''Comments'': It's just as funny as the last fic. Lyle continues to be obsessed with tights and capes and Mr. Muggles is still his nemesis. Lyle is still pissed off about being ignored all the time in favor of Claire. Sylar shows up and he and Lyle have a Thanksgiving dinner consisting of questionable brownies and per usual, Sylar is obsessed with Claire.

118* ''Comments'': A BadFuture world where [[PersonOfMassDestruction Peter]] becomes the [[SealedGoodInACan American government's secret weapon]].

197* Comments:
198** First in a fascinating series- the other stories being ''[[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/5196335/1/Reprise Reprise]]'', ''[[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/5462695/1/Resilience Resilience]]'' and ''[[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/6092491/1/Revenant Revenant]]''- the storyline sees Bella Swan learn about the existence of posthumans while also discovering her own abilities after Peter and Claire save her from Sylar. The subsequent storyline gives Bella fascinating opportunities to develop, as she falls in love with Peter and forms a strange near-sisterly bond with Claire, [[spoiler:to the point that the two of them briefly 'share' powers and make Bella functionally immortal]].
199** The author has also created a '{{foil}}' to this series in the form of ''[[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/5940750/1/Lightning-Strikes Lightning Strikes]]'' and its sequels, which features Elle Bishop attending Forks High before Bella arrives, which results in her falling for Edward before Bella arrives, [[spoiler:while Bella forms a relationship with Peter later]] (Complete).
