Heroes (TV series)/Heartwarming

""Go deep. Take anything that could lead them to her.""
 * No, really, It Makes Sense in Context.
 * Daphne's fantasy sequence as she lays dying. "Fly me to the moon". Oh god...the only way it could be more heart wrenching is if someone made an AMV of it.
 * Hiro saying goodbye to Kaito after visiting his mother's funeral.
 * Hiro's magic show/speech to Emma in Tabula Rasa. He teaches her that powers are always a blessing if you use them right, while putting on a magic show for sick kids in a hospital. (Not to mention, this is also during the Cast From Hit Points time, so he himself is dying the entire time.)
 * Hiro's mother:  This episode also contained a Crowning Moment of Awesome and a Crowning Moment of Funny, each quite separate from the other two. Do we have a trope for achieving the trifecta?
 * Hiro's reunion with Charlie, in its entirety. Especially when
 * When Mr. Bennet lets himself be shot twice so he can protect his little girl...and then when the Haitian has to dig through his memory...

"Noah: How do I look? Claire: Like my dad."
 * And the flashback scene before that, when Noah tries on his horn-rimmed browline glasses for the first time:


 * The thousand paper cranes scene with Charlie and Hiro and of course the Season 1 finale:
 * There's the Bennet family hug at the end of "Company Man" - really heartwarming given how much has happened to their family in that episode..
 * And Molly Walker has to be a walking Heartwarming Moment. Starting with that one look she gave to Micah in the season 1 finale.
 * Niki has been put through a lot of stress in the first season, so it's especially heartwarming when she finally overcomes her Super-Powered Evil Side, punches out a Company agent who's been masquerading as her, and saves Micah by herself in the season finale.
 * D.L. phasing his hand through the glass when he and Micah were visiting Niki in prison was definitely a heartwarming moment since Niki turned herself in so that Micah will at least have one parent.
 * Matt at hospital bed in the season 2 episode "Out of Time."


 * This troper liked the honest last few words between Peter and Nathan at the end of the Season 1 finale, considering all Nathan's magnificent bastardness beforehand.
 * For this troper, it was in season two:
 * It freaked me out at the time, because we didn't know what her power was and I assumed they were fake memories. I don't know why, I just did. I know better now, though.
 * This troper finds three Claude-to-Bennet moments in "Company Man" strangely heartwarming: "By 'them' do you mean people like me?", "This isn't the first time you've been asked to kill a man, but is it the first time you've killed a friend.", and "Evidently, I think you're a better man than they do."
 * Season 3: "" and
 * The Paris scene from "Cold Snap": Perhaps the most heartbreaking scene of the entire series. Definitely the most romantic scene. It's yet another CMoA for Bryan Fuller, for that matter.
 * Also in that episode, sacrifice right before the scene above.   snaps at her for giving him up to the government.  responds by telling him to escape, then sacrificing herself to kill the agents so that he can get away. The blink and the tear at the very end as she's lying on the ground really adds to the effect.
 * Parkman's reaction to, which made this troper like him for the first time.
 * Peter and Emma playing the piano together, especially
 * "You've found your way home, brother."
 * convincing Peter to let go of him and accept his death.

"Claude: I think he meant you, friend."
 * Going back to Season 1, there's a moment of the roof where Peter and Claude are hanging out with Claude's pigeons and Peter asks what Charles Darwin meant by "a species' full potential." It's all in the way Claude looks at him:


 * Hiro and Charlie's reunion doubles as a Heartwarming Moment and a Tear Jerker. While Hiro recovers from his brain surgery, he receives a note from Charlie, who is apparently somewhere in the hospital. Hiro rushes to her room
 * Future!Sylar's behavior toward his son. D'aww.
