This was wonderful, Dandello!
A cherub done in earth-tones.
Lovely. You have a beautiful touch.
“He sure seems to be. He doesn’t like to be left alone, and he really doesn’t like the dark,” Jonathan said.
I've never thought about that - about what, if any, reaction baby Clark would have to his trip to earth, but it gave me a pang to read.
I love that this vignette took the events of "Tempus Fugitive" into account. They certainly make Clark's arrival on earth even stranger than it was already - and that's saying something!
But it was also fun to read how relatively low-key the reactions of the judge and sheriff were. Yeah, they know something weird happened, but it's Smallville's something weird and therefore nobody else's business. You can almost feel the whole town circling the wagons around this family, just from reading these two people's reactions.
Thanks for an enjoyable read
