Great chapter! Lots of awesome information on the backstory
...
But first off, wow...Lois is definitely going for what she wants! Sneaky way to get Lex on the phone. Knew she was up to something. And Clark...to just have to pretty much stand there, watch her make contact with him--and not be able to do anything about it. Such a 'rock and a hard place' type of moment. What happens when you have super-hearing though
...
I really enjoyed reading what Clark thought of Cat...how he knows she is an 'act', how he is curious what the real person is like. And I thought the fact that Clark was put off by Cat's lack of showing the world who she really is--and in contrast, was drawn to Lois because of how real she is was really great. Love how he is connecting to Lois like this...
Really good info on why Clark originally came to Metropolis, what might have happened to Lana. What was going on btw Lana and Clark that Clark has been living with all these years--that her death happened as he was trying to open up to her. I can understand a lot more about how this Clark has lived, trying to get to the bottom of everything. Trying to show Luthor's true being. Can't wait for more...
Loving the story
