Spoilers/Warnings: speculation off 1.11
Disclaimer: Not mine?
Summary: Mohinder knows he's made some mistakes. This time, he's going to do it better.
Notes: Written for 60_minute_fics. My first one of these, my first time writing Mohinder, totally stream of conscious. *hands* COMPLETELY unbeta'd. For those who don't know, 60 minute fics are written in 60 minutes from a prompt delivered shortly before the hour begins. No foreknowledge or planning went it to this, which may possibly be reflected in Mohinder's quite opposite attitude. Hee.

Trigger: This story in answer to 011207 Trigger #1 Fortune Cookies: Go to the magic Fortune Cookie Generator and see if you can't find yourself something fun to work into a 60 minute fic.

Inspired by: drvsilla because she made me want to try.

( Maybe he should feel bad about thinking about sex with his brother while they're trying to keep Mr. Bennet's organization off the scent, but, hey, the idiot routine works for Bruce Wayne. And it's not like he and Claire are saving the world at the moment. )
