So I haven't checked in with this story in a few months, but now that I have, I remember why this piece is so awesome!

I still think you're a tease, having us know about Konrad and Gabriel without them (or even Javier) being aware of their relationship! I really liked Sylar taking an interest in Ryan's well-being (maybe that's too much, but ykwim) and his interaction with Javier was a nice touch.

Also, this has been nagging at me ever since it came up in the story: are a certain two someones actually uncle and nephew? b/c, wow, I think Castle's going to be equally freaked and thrilled once/if he finds out.

Anyway, just wanted you to know that I still love this story!
