Oh, man. This long plotty multi-part bit of fabulousness was exactly what I needed.
This fic is Exibit A of why my own mom always warned me to marry an orphan. Damn, Mama Suresh really is the face of evil. (although it could be worse. Angela would have just had Matt killed once her matchmaking sceme failed.)
When she first brought in Mira I thought it was amusing and manipulative and wrong headed--that she thought Matt was secretly in love with Mohinder and wanted to nip it in the bud. When it turned out that she knew there was someting going on between the boys(silly Mo-mo foolishly jumping into falling in love and not being able to get out of it!) and chose to disregard that for her own idea of happily ever after for Mohinder I saw red.
And her telling Mohinder he shouldn't care that much for Molly. I was muttering 'Bitch, that hands off unemotional attitude is why your son is so messed up already! Chandra fucked him over royally in the parenting department and you want Mohinder to do the same thing!'
When she asked Matt if he'd ever been to college, I was like an audience member at Montel: 'Oh no she di'dnt!!!!'
So, needless to say when Mohinder finally told her off for scaring the hell out of poor Molly I cheered. Both of the boys have way more patience than I do. I would have kicked the woman out after the first week. Or in Matt's case, killed her and used my Jedi mind tricks to make people think it was an accident. But they made it throught he trial by fire and maybe in a decade or so, Ma Suresh might possibly be able to concede that Matt is kind of sort of a little bit good enough for her son. Dude, when even the ex-girlfriend approves of the current boyfriend it is time to give up.
