We have a gig that would inevitably cause any girl living to think we are cool upon cool. Yet, we must Clark Kent our way through the dating scene, never to use our unfair advantage. Thank God we're pretty.

I was happily reading

heroes_meta when I saw

kattahj's quoted bit:

I do hope they're not killing DL. He hasn't done much yet, but I'd love to see more of him. He's certainly a lot more fun than he ever was on Buffy. I love that he didn't know that Jessica existed, but Micah did. Kids are teh smrtz, yo.

My jaw dropped and I litterally looked like this for a moment: 80

Ahem.

So, having finally solved the Where Have I Seen Nathan Petrelli Before question, I now have another riddle solved. I call it the Why the Hell Does DL Remind Me So Much of Gunn When I Know it's Not Him?

Watching DL at times was a little bit of a mindbender, I can tell you. I I knew I knew Leonard Roberts, but couldn't figure out why. And I couldn't shake off the Charles Gunn vibes. Turns out, it was the BtVS vibes I was getting.

D.L. Hawkins - played by -> Leonard Roberts - who played -> Forrest Gates

Freakin' Innitiative Man! *dances* It all makes sense now!

The resemblence may not be uncanny, and it may be 80% shiny-head factor and 20% tough muscle with a heart of gold, but damnit all, now I know.

Exhibit A vs. Exhibit B
