“Horribly,” she replied. “Do you want to move in together?”


Part 203

The toast shattered into pieces and went flying into the air, raining down onto Clark’s head.
Oops? So, did it explode or did he fold it up with his fingers?

Quote
She patted it down, but it was being as stubborn as a Kryptonian.
clap Also, aren’t Kryptonian females rather pliable? /points at the professional caregivers/

Quote
Perhaps this conversation should have waited until after she had showered. She put a hand to her mouth. And brushed her teeth. Too late now.
laugh Sounds like she failed Marketing 101. This way, Clark will know exactly what to expect instead of having the brushed-up version of a roommate to make the offer more attractive.
CLARK: confused It’s a Lois volunteering to share my bed. What’s the ER talking about? huh

Quote
“You know sharing an apartment.
Ooooh! I found the place where you took the comma from, three parts ago or so.

Quote
You. Me. Living together,” she said.
ELLEN: In sin.
GRAMS: Oh, shut it. She’s a grown girl and he’s man-pretty.

Quote
He was going to make her spell it out, wasn’t it?
Maybe ‘he’? Also, yes. After all, he’s a Kryptonian. They’re rather dense.

Quote
“No,” he replied. “This is about your fear of being alone. You’re worried that Luthor is after you, and you could very well be right, especially after everything that has…”

“This isn’t about me being afraid,” she growled.
Riiiiight.

Quote
She rolled her eyes. “Do you want to move in together?”

“What? Here?” he asked.
No. Not *here*. He really *is* stupid. She’s afraid of her place.

Quote
Here would give him the option to think that she meant as roommates. Her in her room. Him in Lucy’s old room.
[Linked Image]

Quote
. “No, Chuck. Your place.” It only had the one bedroom.
See?

Quote
Lifting his buttery fingers to her lips, she stuck one into her mouth to lick it clean.
shock

Quote
A shudder passed through him. It was the good type of shudder, more of a tremble, as if he were losing control, which meant he was only acting dense.
No, he’s very…dense at the moment.

Quote
Lois moved closer to him. “And I wouldn’t have to call you to say ‘goodnight’.” She placed a different finger into her mouth.
/scratches head/ Is ‘tripping the patented Clark Kent overload switch’ your invention or was it some other author?

Quote
“It’s a little soon to be talking about moving in together, though, don’t you think?
But that way she’d be repeating the previous action 9 more times?

Quote
“I think that you’re trying to find a plausible reason to move out of your apartment and you’ve latched onto me as a good excuse,” he replied
So, he’s telling her that she’s acting like a golddigger trying to find a nice pad to stay at? Hmm…considering his place, actually, just a stereotypical ‘60s woman trying to snag a reasonably well-situated husband. Does he really think this is a wise insinuation to make?

Quote
She crossed her arms. “Oh, really? Because you’re making me sound needy and desperately chasing after you.”
See?

Quote
“Even after I confessed traveling back in time to have a second chance with you? Nope, sorry, Lois. I have already claimed the needy, desperate chaser role in this relationship, and I refuse to hand it over,”
Actually, he’s more the ‘creepy, stalker guy’.
LEX: Hey! What about me?

Quote
“I’m worried that you’re moving too fast for you. I don’t want you to rush our relationship… before you’re ready… and later on, have you feel as if you’re stuck or pressured or…”
Wouldn’t it be awkward if she broke up with him in a couple of months because of this?

Quote
Her gaze narrowed. “I said share an apartment, not a bed.”
shock But…but…but…she…earlier…she…what?
LOIS: Just because I want him to take me to bed once we move in together doesn’t mean he gets to spell it out first.

Quote
His responding gaze let her know that he didn’t believe her.
jawdrop Is that his ‘your robe should be made of lead’ gaze?

Quote
Okay, she had meant that, but after what he said, she would never admit to it. Even if on the off-chance he could get her to admit to meaning it, he just lost out that ‘sharing a bed’ meant ‘sharing their bodies’ instead of ‘sharing a sleeping spot’ with that look.
Right. Because she’s going to not be all over him when he sleeps next to her.
CLARK: *Over* the covers.
LOIS: Makes him easier accessible…

Quote
Unless, of course, he kissed her while lying in that sleeping spot… or came to bed naked.
See? So, basically, any sort of ‘I’m available sign’ above his head.

Quote
Oh, hell. How did I become so easy? Lois thought, frowning.
Friends with Cat? Not having gotten any for several years of knowing Clark?

Quote
She was plenty ready to move to the next level of their relationship, especially if it meant leaving this apartment.
Yeah, sounds like she’s trading sex for a place to sleep.

Quote
Crap, I’m still going to have to be patient, aren’t I? I’m going have to ease him into this.
laugh Afraid he’s going to fly off to an emergency as soon as she shuts off the light in the bathroom?

Quote
“I know you like to jump into things with both feet, but with this… with us…
He’d prefer her not jumping into things with both feet? Kryptonian physiology this, invulnerability that.

Quote
Every step? She didn’t want to be fifty before she got him naked.
rotflol

Quote
“Sometimes ripping off the bandage quickly is the best way,” she countered.
She wants to rip his clothes off?

Quote
She leaned back so she could look him in the eye. “Do you regularly hover around your apartment?” she asked.
He kinda does. For instance, he sleep floats.

Quote
“Oh.” She watched him butter toast and wondered if he recalled that she always played to win. “We’ve slept together before, you know,”
shock What?

Quote
she said as he snapped another piece of toast into smithereens.
clap

Quote
“And as I recollect, it was quite nice… sleeping together, that is.”
Oh, when she was shot. You evil, evil writer. [Linked Image]

Quote
“Do you want to go out for breakfast?”

***

Lois slid her fork through the last bite of Uncle Mike’s fudge raspberry torte.
Breakfast, huh?
LOIS: confused huh

Quote
It had been just what she needed to take the edge off being patient with her dear, sweet, ever-annoying Chuck.
She going to spend her days on a treadmill if she moves in with him, huh?
LOIS: The reason why I lobbied for sharing the space underneath the covers. Also great for taking the edge off, plus, extra bonus calories burner, too!

Quote
It had absolutely nothing to do with the fact that Perry had announced that Clark had garnered a Kerth Award nomination for Investigating Excellence, while none of her stories over the last year had.
Oh, it wasn’t actually breakfast. Also, she a bit jealous that Clark’s a better reporter than she is?

Quote
Not a single one.
LOIS: No, I’m not jealous. But I will be starting an investigation into the malpractices of the Kerth board’s members.

Quote
or that there was a secret government agency trying to kill Superman and willing to kill innocent Kansans in the process.
Can someone hiding an alien invader be considered ‘innocent’?

Quote
No, Clark Kent had been nominated for some boring story having to do with conditions at retirement homes, or some other rot.
Ooooh! It’s from canon! clap Also, why she’s stuffing herself at Mike’s!

Quote
Just before Perry’s announcement, her illustrious partner had rushed off on some emergency and told her just to not expect him for lunch because he had to meet a source afterwards.
Maybe he scanned the envelope and realized he’d have to make like a tree and leave?

Quote
Was Superman so busy that he was scheduling his rescues in advance?
Maybe it’s a prearranged meeting that combines companionship with a blonde with food and some legal exchanges?

Quote
She also didn’t have to worry that she would jump her partner’s bones out here on the sidewalk.
laugh What if he showed up dressed as Superman?
LOIS: [Linked Image]

Quote
She placed the last bite into her mouth and sighed, picturing equally delightful but entirely different sins in her mind.
Lois! Not out here n the open.

Quote
Clark is standing up at the Kerth Award podium announcing to everyone, as he accepts his award – because of course, he’d win – that he wants to share his award with his partner Lois Lane and that she should join him on the dais.
Oh, those kind of sins. Envy. Not Lust.

Quote
Then he hands over his crystal teardrop trophy and insists that she take it, saying he could never have earned it without her love, assistance, and journalistic mentoring.
Oh, look, it’s gluttony that combines envy with lust :p

Quote
He pleads with Lois,
Hmmm… ‘her’ instead of ‘Lois’ since it’s present tense imagination?

Quote
professing that he will never be able to be happy until he makes love to her so thoroughly that she passes out from exhaustion and pleasure every night for the rest of her life.
BARON TEMPOS: So, just once, then?

Quote
When she reluctantly agrees, as she would never show eagerness in her fantasy,
Yes, it’s a fantasy that she’s modest and possessed by a modicum of decorum instead of wanting to jump him right then and there.

Quote
“I don’t know. Gerald’s still waiting for them to show up.”

Lois sat up straighter. “What?”
Well…that means he still has hope they will show up eventually. Isn’t that worth something?

Quote
She wouldn’t put it beside Clark to have placed a tracer on her.
[Linked Image]

Quote
She craned her neck around her uncle and saw that Clark wasn’t alone. He had just exited a cab with…

Lois stood up. “Mayson Drake, how good to see you,” she said through a forced smile and gritted teeth.
Ooooh! I was right about the blonde coming earlier!
LOIS: mad

Quote
“Mayson and I met this summer. She was helping the team working to put Luthor away,” Clark replied. “She’s been very helpful.”
Didn’t you say they hadn’t met yet? [Linked Image]

Quote
Maybe his denseness wasn’t an act. Couldn’t he see how bad this looked? Especially how much Mayson looked at him?
CLARK: confused But Kryptonian lord are entitled to multiple professional caregivers… huh

Quote
you off, because you
Not sure about that bit of lint there… /tries to clean screen/

Quote
you didn’t believe me when I told you he was a criminal mastermind?” Lois said.

“I didn’t think it was relevant to bring that up,” Mayson replied.
It is so Clark knows that his new professional caregiver doesn’t believe his other professional caregiver.
JIMBO: Cat fight! hyper
CLARK: confused help

Quote
“I thought you hated her because she convicted you on that Eugene Laderman thing.
Uuuu… ‘convicted’? Wouldn’t she have to be a judge for that?

Quote
“I saved this country because I helped Eugene and the thanks I got was a felony conviction!” Lois returned.
Well…given how Ms Lane here is a professed carrier of a scarlet ‘A’, maybe Mayson is a tad touchy about Ms. Lane here touching her boyfriend.

Quote
Lois set her hands on her hips and waited. That had to have gotten through even Clark’s skull.
CLARK: Lois doesn’t like my other friend. Maybe Lois isn’t such a nice person after all? Plus, Mayson won’t die of some horrible 24-hour bug when we consummate our marriage. Also, blonde, so bonus!

Quote
Clark took Mayson’s hand off his arm, patted it, and turned her towards Lois’s uncle. “But the reason… Mayson, this is Mike Lane. Mike, this is Mayson Drake. Mayson works for the District Attorney’s office.”
Awww, he’s trying to play matchmaker. Isn’t he adorable?

Quote
“Clark, why are we here?” Mayson asked under her breath, yet they all heard her.
Threesome with Lois?

Quote
“It’s not a date, if that’s what you were thinking,” Lois said, stating the obvious to all but clearly Mayson.
Apparently, Lois doesn’t know about it yet, either.

Quote
“Of course not, Lois,” Clark said, his eyes widening at her words.
CLARK: help She knows how to get Kryptonite. I really have to tread carefully now if I want to live past tomorrow morning.

Quote
“What?” This time Mayson’s question was a bit sharper. “What do you mean ‘this isn’t a date’?”
rotflol

Quote
Lois set a hand on Clark’s arm. “Clark,” she said firmly, interrupting him. “Mayson thought you two were on a date.”
She really has to put it into small words for him, huh?

Quote
Clark’s cheeks went redder than rosy this time. “Oh, gosh, Mayson, I’m so sorry. I didn’t mean to… I never…” He cleared his throat. “I thought everyone knew.” He glanced at his partner. “I’m in love with Lois.”
MAYSON: So? Doesn’t mean she reciprocates. Or has the emotional competence to do so in the first place. Did you know that I have a cabin in the woods with a big bed?

Quote
“Our first official date was for your birthday last September,” Clark rebutted and then gasped. “Why, Lois, it’s almost been a year.”

“Thank you for reminding me,” Lois grumbled.
Doesn’t like to be reminded that she’s almost a year older? Or that it’s been a year and they still haven’t moved to the ‘third-date’ stage of their relationship?
LOIS: Yes.

Quote
“Mike, Death by Chocolate is my favorite cake, but really, I don’t celebrate it.”
Not ‘uncle Mike’?

Quote
“You’re dating Lois Lane?” Mayson repeated, apparently having still not moved on from that point.
To be fair, it *is* a bit unexpected.

Quote
“But… but… she’s a convicted felon!” Mayson said. “She was engaged to marry Lex Luthor!”
rotflol That second one really did almost wreck things.
CLARK: Cooties!

Quote
Clark glanced at Lois and raised a seductive eyebrow. “Oh, really?”
Sounds like he’s hoping for a threesome.
LOIS: Fine by me.

Quote
Lois gave Clark a look that read, 'Hey! She said it, not me.'
rotflol

Quote
“You’re very pretty, Mayson, and if I...” Clark started before choosing very wisely not to continue that train of thought. “Maybe Lois knows a nice man she can introduce you to.”
How about Superman?

Quote
“Nope. Sorry, Chuck.” Lois shrugged. “You’re the nicest man in Metropolis and even you’re a horrible liar.”

“That’s not true!” he snapped.
It is. He can’t lie to keep Superman’s identity a secret.

Quote
“He’s a vigilante. He struts around town, thinking because he’s got all these powers that laws don’t apply to him.”
GRAVITY: I’d like to file a civilian suit for that, too.

Quote
“Clark is Superman’s best friend,” Lois said with a grin.

“I am not!” Clark retorted.

Lois placed a finger to her lips. “That’s right. He’s not.” Then she winked.
He’s probably his worst enemy.
LEX: Hey!

Quote
“I know you’re not, Chuck,” she replied, pulling him closer. “Just do me a favor and stop asking women out without me.”
jawdrop She really does want to go and pick up a nice blonde in a bar together with Clark! dizzy

Quote
“Never again,” he promised, and this time she believed him.
Uh-huh…

So, will the blonde make a second appearance with a vengeance?
MINDY: wave
ER: No, you’re scheduled not before part…350?

Darth Michael: Thank you for continuing to read and comment. smile You brighten my day.

Quote
Oops? So, did it explode or did he fold it up with his fingers?
It was crisp toast. His fingers shattered it with too much force.

Quote
Also, aren’t Kryptonian females rather pliable? /points at the professional caregivers/
Lois only knows of one Kryptonian at the moment.

Quote
Sounds like she failed Marketing 101.
I was going for "jumped in without thinking first".

Quote
This way, Clark will know exactly what to expect instead of having the brushed-up version of a roommate to make the offer more attractive.
Exactly.

Quote
CLARK: /confused/ It’s a Lois volunteering to share my bed. What’s the ER talking about? /huh/
Do you mean that she could show up like she just went in search of the Super-Godzilla and he's say "okay"? Except for one little, tiny, flaw... His fear of killing her.

Haven't we established that Lois has a vision problem? i.e. that she can't see what's right before her eyes.

Quote
No. Not *here*. He really *is* stupid. She’s afraid of her place.
Perhaps he's proving a point. wink

Points to over younder where little Michael dealt some cards.

But that way she’d be repeating the previous action 9 more times?
So, she'd skip his toes?

Quote
So, he’s telling her that she’s acting like a golddigger trying to find a nice pad to stay at? Hmm…considering his place, actually, just a stereotypical ‘60s woman trying to snag a reasonably well-situated husband. Does he really think this is a wise insinuation to make?
CLARK: /holding now empty bucket of ice water/ Nope, that worked just as it was supposed to.
LOIS: mad

Quote
Actually, he’s more the ‘creepy, stalker guy’.
LEX: Hey! What about me?
CLARK: Yeah, I look good next to that guy!
LOIS: [Linked Image] Is Jimbo still available?

Quote
Wouldn’t it be awkward if she broke up with him in a couple of months because of this?
Because he wouldn't move in with her NOW? Or do what he feared?
DAN: Meet me and move on? hyper

Quote
ER: /shocked that he forgot that a woman is allowed to change her mind at any time/ But…but…but…she…earlier…she…what?
LOIS: Just because I want him to take me to bed once we move in together doesn’t mean he gets to spell it out first.
She didn't say anything about sleeping together. She was just hungry for butterfingers.

Quote
Is that his ‘your robe should be made of lead’ gaze?
No, that was his dense act slipping.

Quote
Right. Because she’s going to not be all over him when he sleeps next to her.
CLARK: *Over* the covers.
LOIS: Makes him easier accessible…
LOIS: Hey! No sleeping on the ceiling! Get back down here!

Quote
So, basically, any sort of ‘I’m available sign’ above his head.
CLARK: [Linked Image] Ooops. Broken.

Quote
Friends with Cat? Not having gotten any for several years of knowing Clark?
Ding! Ding! Ding!
CAT: The latter. We've known each other for years.

Quote
Yeah, sounds like she’s trading sex for a place to sleep.
LOIS: shock When you put it that way... My place doesn't seem so bad.

Quote
Afraid he’s going to fly off to an emergency as soon as she shuts off the light in the bathroom?
CLARK: Really, someone was calling for help. I promise, Lois!

Quote
He’d prefer her not jumping into things with both feet? Kryptonian physiology this, invulnerability that.
Not literally jumping on things with both feet.
CLARK: Can we just not experiment in that department, please?

You evil, evil writer. /that's not allowed!/
What? /adds some buffer to my EW badge/ Why not?

Quote
Breakfast, huh?
You've met Lois, right?

Quote
She going to spend her days on a treadmill if she moves in with him, huh?
Why would Clark move the treadmill that Lex gave Lois to HIS apartment?
CLARK: Nope, that sucker is toast.

Quote
LOIS: The reason why I lobbied for sharing the space underneath the covers. Also great for taking the edge off, plus, extra bonus calories burner, too!
CLARK: Right. I've never had a need for a treadmill at my... oh. blush

Quote
Oh, it wasn’t actually breakfast. Also, she a bit jealous that Clark’s a better reporter than she is?
Not jealous. Envious.
LOIS: He is so NOT the better reporter. The better reporter doesn't have super powers!

Quote
LOIS: No, I’m not jealous. But I will be starting an investigation into the malpractices of the Kerth board’s members.
Don't spread that around, Lois, or someone might steal that article idea.

Quote
Can someone hiding an alien invader be considered ‘innocent’?
Who are you? Trask? Wayne Irig wasn't innocent?

Quote
Ooooh! It’s from canon! /clap/
I made reference to it oh... um... way back... um... in Section I. If anyone recalls.

Quote
Also, why she’s stuffing herself at Mike’s!
Why not? Best cake in town.

Quote
Maybe he scanned the envelope and realized he’d have to make like a tree and leave?
Good guess. But it was actually an emergency. Sorry.

Quote
Maybe it’s a prearranged meeting that combines companionship with a blonde with food and some legal exchanges?
Hey! That's my story! I mean. I don't have any idea to what you could be referring.

Quote
What if he showed up dressed as Superman?
LOIS: /damned if I do. Damned if I don't./
Well, they are trying not to associate Lois with Superman much, because otherwise he'll be accused of stealing Clark's girl.

Quote
Lois! Not out here n the open.
She's picturing them in her MIND. Not out in the open.

Quote
Oh, those kind of sins. Envy. Not Lust.
Give her a minute.

Quote
Oh, look, it’s gluttony that combines envy with lust
Okay, another minute.

That you knew of. evil

CLARK: /confused/ But Kryptonian lord are entitled to multiple professional caregivers… /huh/
Well, since he can't have sex with the woman he loves, he might as well curb the urges he has with... No, I wouldn't write that story. Lois would kill him.

Not sure. I was taught that a comma always goes before "because". If not, it's just tooooooooo confusing.

Quote
It is so Clark knows that his new professional caregiver doesn’t believe his other professional caregiver.
He already known (thought he knew) that they don't get along.

Quote
JIMBO: Cat fight! /hyper/
CLARK: /confused/ /help/
I don't know what you mean. Cat is in Houston.

Quote
Uuuu… ‘convicted’? Wouldn’t she have to be a judge for that?
But it's much easier to spell than "prosecuted". Fine! I'll be correct. Geeze. wink

Quote
Well…given how Ms Lane here is a professed carrier of a scarlet ‘A’, maybe Mayson is a tad touchy about Ms. Lane here touching her boyfriend.
Makes sense. thumbsup
LOIS: Hey!

Quote
CLARK: Lois doesn’t like my other friend. Maybe Lois isn’t such a nice person after all? Plus, Mayson won’t die of some horrible 24-hour bug when we consummate our marriage. Also, blonde, so bonus!
On the negative side, Lois knows his secret and where the Kryptonite is kept.

Quote
Awww, he’s trying to play matchmaker. Isn’t he adorable?
Uh... yeah. Sure. That's what he's doing.

Quote
Threesome with Lois?
Lois only does threesomes with Superman.
MAYSON: Then I'm out!

Quote
Apparently, Lois doesn’t know about it yet, either.
The date? No, she know Clark didn't make a date with Mayson. He's not THAT stupid.

Quote
CLARK: /help/ She knows how to get Kryptonite. I really have to tread carefully now if I want to live past tomorrow morning.
Yes, Clark. There's only a 50% chance she'll be the one to die from the curse.

Quote
She really has to put it into small words for him, huh?
I know Clark seems denser than usual here, but his POV will prove he's just an innocent guy.
CLARK: /points upward/ See my halo?

Quote
MAYSON: So? Doesn’t mean she reciprocates. Or has the emotional competence to do so in the first place. Did you know that I have a cabin in the woods with a big bed?
CLARK: Can I keep your number, in case she dumps me down the road?

Quote
Doesn’t like to be reminded that she’s almost a year older? Or that it’s been a year and they still haven’t moved to the ‘third-date’ stage of their relationship?
LOIS: Yes.
She's not a big fan of her birthday.

Quote
Not ‘uncle Mike’?
I guess that makes sense.

Quote
To be fair, it *is* a bit unexpected.
Especially for Clark.

Quote
That second one really did almost wreck things.
CLARK: Cooties!
LEX: Na-uh. My mom had me tested.

Quote
Sounds like he’s hoping for a threesome.
LOIS: Fine by me.
See, only with Superman.
CLARK: About that...

How about Superman?
Mayson doesn't like men who strut.

Quote
It is. He can’t lie to keep Superman’s identity a secret.
He does a worse job of it than canon Clark.

Perhaps that should read "without informing me first"?

So, will the blonde make a second appearance with a vengeance?
MINDY: /wave/
ER: No, you’re scheduled not before part…350?
thud Don't you want to see what I have planned for Book 3?

Continuation of response to Darth Michael's FDK
Oh dear. Sorry that it went a tad long blush

Quote
Lois only knows of one Kryptonian at the moment.
Maybe he should tell her about that time-honored tradition? That way, he wouldn’t have to worry about her sharing his bed…

Quote
Do you mean that she could show up like she just went in search of the Super-Godzilla and he's say "okay"?
Yes. He *might* suggest a sharing a shower first, though.

Quote
Um...Oooookay? After the "know" then? /stupid comma rules/
Yeah. It’s an introductory clause or whatever you call those, not one big happy sentence with two verbs huh

Quote
CLARK: /shifts uncomfortably/ Yes, I'm a HE.
EW: Oooops. /confused about Clark’s gender situation/ Sorry. Fixed.
laugh No wonder he got issues!

Quote
Haven't we established that Lois has a vision problem? i.e. that she can't see what's right before her eyes.
True. Maybe if she got glasses for her farsightedness?

Quote
Perhaps he's proving a point.
You think he’s smart enough?
LOIS: mad Or brave enough?

Quote
ER: /reads between the lines = "Lois wants to jump Clark's bones!"/
EW: There is a reason that this story arc is called "between the lines".
clap

Quote
ER: /scratches head/ Is ‘tripping the patented Clark Kent overload switch’ your invention or was it some other author?
EW: Points to over younder where little Michael dealt some cards.
Oops, yeah, I might have *done* that. But the phrase isn’t in there. I think. No, that was someone else. Sue. Kathy. Wendy. Labby. huh

Quote
But that way she’d be repeating the previous action 9 more times?
So, she'd skip his toes?
huh I’d guess.

Quote
CLARK: /holding now empty bucket of ice water/ Nope, that worked just as it was supposed to.
LOIS: /has boiled off all the ice water/
Does he really think it’s wise to poke the bear in its new cave?

Quote
LOIS: /can’t believe she’s going to make a man out of Jimbo/ Is Jimbo still available?
JIMBO: hyper

Quote
Because he wouldn't move in with her NOW? Or do what he feared?
Yes. The sharing a bed and stuff…

Quote
She didn't say anything about sleeping together. She was just hungry for butterfingers.
[Linked Image] She really should consider that he might try to find some blonde and just keep things professional between them if she keeps that up…

Quote
LOIS: Hey! No sleeping on the ceiling! Get back down here!
laugh Maybe she could pull him down?

Quote
LOIS: /has just realized something/ When you put it that way... My place doesn't seem so bad.
CLARK: Thanks. Thanks a lot.
ER: You’re welcome!

Quote
CLARK: Really, someone was calling for help. I promise, Lois!
He put a tape machine in an abandoned warehouse with him screaming for help on it?

Quote
Not literally jumping on things with both feet.
CLARK: Can we just not experiment in that department, please?
laugh He’s adorable, isn’t he?

Quote
LOIS: I didn't *say* that!
CLARK: /gives Michael a 'can you believe her' look./
[Linked Image]

Quote
EW: I believe she said, “We’ve slept together before, you know,” /is deliberately obtuse. Like Clark/
LOIS: Hey!
ER: Hey!

ER: You evil, evil writer. /that's not allowed!/
EW: What? /adds some buffer to my EW badge/ Why not?

Why would Clark move the treadmill that Lex gave Lois to HIS apartment?
CLARK: Nope, that sucker is toast.
New one?

Quote
ER: Can someone hiding an alien invader be considered ‘innocent’?
EW: Who are you? Trask? Wayne Irig wasn't innocent?
[Linked Image] Also, I was talking about the Kents.

Quote
I made reference to it oh... um... way back... um... in Section I. If anyone recalls.
Umm…

Quote
Well, they are trying not to associate Lois with Superman much, because otherwise he'll be accused of stealing Clark's girl.
MAYSON: See? Also, Clarkie, now that you know that your girlfriend’s a hussie, how about you trade up?

Quote
LOIS: No, the rest of my life. What is he talking about Clark?
CLARK: /does not believe in actually explaining that tidbit to her/
evil

Quote
ER: /suggests the magical kind/
CLARK: I don't do so well with magic.
clap Also, that’s a heart. I was thinking given how he has super hearing…

Quote
Sooner she comes, the sooner she...
LOIS: Blows up?
Jealous?

Quote
Things are changing because this universe is starting to move further from canon. Is that okay?
ALT-CLARK: But canon Clark and canon Lois got married. /does not like things to change/
laugh

Quote
Didn’t you say they hadn’t met yet? /ER doesn't like subterfuge/
EW: That you knew of. /is not the most reliable of narrators/
clap

Quote
Not sure. I was taught that a comma always goes before "because". If not, it's just tooooooooo confusing.
[Linked Image] Yeah, actually I thought so, too. Until I googled for the exception case right now. Anyhow, this time the because clarifies that that was the reason why they wanted her off.

Quote
I don't know what you mean. Cat is in Houston.
laugh

Quote
On the negative side, Lois knows his secret and where the Kryptonite is kept.
So, trump card?

Quote
Lois only does threesomes with Superman.
MAYSON: Then I'm out!
clap

Quote
The date? No, she know Clark didn't make a date with Mayson. He's not THAT stupid.
He’s not?

Quote
CLARK: /points upward/ See my halo?
[Linked Image] ? But to be fair, he’s not smart enough to try and make Lois jealous on purpose.
CLARK: confused Why would I try to trick her into wanting me? I already have trouble keeping her virtue intact until after our honeymoon.

Quote
See, only with Superman.
CLARK: About that...
clap
Wouldn’t it be fun if one of the alternate Clarks where to show up?

Quote
GRAVITY: I’d like to file a civilian suit for that, too.
EW: /approves/ Brilliant!
Thank you blush

Quote
She really does want to go and pick up a nice blonde in a bar together with Clark!

Quote
ER: No, you’re scheduled not before part…350?
EW: /scared by that prospect/ Don't you want to see what I have planned for Book 3?
Oh, I do. And the sequel to the one where Lois and Clark met at splash mountain. And the one for Missing Lois. And… and… and… hyper Oh, I guess I see your point blush

I just had a crazy idea. What if Clark misinterprets the curse into thinking that if he "sleeps" (literally sleeps) with Lois then she'll die, but sex and other fun stuff isn't sleeping so it's okay. Sounds like a good story for you or Groobie to tackle on the other boards.

LOIS: Come on, Clark! Why won't you stay the night?
CLARK: I just can't. Okay. Just deal, Lois. It doesn't mean I don't love you.
LOIS: It means that you're still looking for someone else. It means you have a fear of commitment.
CLARK: No, Lois, it doesn't! I love you and only you!
LOIS: Right. You love me, but you can't fall asleep with me.
CLARK: Exactly! /kisses her cheek/ Thanks for understanding!

[Linked Image], well, it's an idea. Don't know if it's a good one, yet.

Thank you. I'm trying to move the plot forward as fast as possible without bringing in the Flash.

BTW: Flash and Gotham just were added to Netflix Instant list, so I'm easily distracted nowadays. [Linked Image] My apologies. I'm still writing WC (just sent a new part to Beta) and I'm also working on a new short(er) story. I tried to keep it under 3 parts, and FAILED. /hangs head in shame/

Thanks for not giving up on me!
