It is working better than I expected, especially since they did not go through town. I am waiting for Thomas to come and yell out "Jerome" though.

I don't know how long Clark can get away with this. I love Lois feeling like hugging Martha when she first sees her. I hope even if Clark doesn't come clean with Lois, that he'll talk with his parents.

Joan

Trying to prevent him from running out on you, eh?

I wonder how this would have gone if he had gotten to the note first. Probably would have gone off on his own, no doubt.

Yes and Yes. You have every right to be nervous this time, Clark.

Lois: *shrugs* Chocolate before kisses. Usually this is a no-brainer. Now? No so much.

It seems like this post is not allowing my full FDK so stay tuned for part 2!

Family without them being family.

And the way to make a baby is pretty enjoyable too, isn't it Clark?

Clark: *blushes* no comment.

Going to make staying away from her in the red suit all the harder isn't it, Clark?

Clark: *blushes even deeper* It doesn't mean I won't keep trying to stay away.

Lois: *muttering to herself* Until he can be fully truthful with me how can I trust him enough for such a trip?

Poor Clark.

I wonder if Lois is paying any attention to his body language here because it's screaming, "I'm telling! I'm telling!"

Ah, the double deja vu kicking in to help nudge her trust the right way again.

Oh he is going to get into so much trouble for this.

Oh poor Clark, playing the "beat down" (bad phrasing, trying to come up with a better one) to Lois's upset wife. Would two beds be better for this couple I wonder?

What happens if Superman is really needed? Is CK still being light on the Superman apparenaces by the way?

He has snuck off too many times.

Then wouldn't it be faster if they were both getting their stuff at the same time?

Doesn't he see she is not gong to let him sneak off, ever again.

Well it is not his first time in there. Although this time won't even be as romantic as last time.

After what happened in the supply closet at the Metro Club, I do not think she believes this claim one bit. He is acting too suspicious for her to trust him, even if she had not talked to Martha Kent. He should just be glad Martha does not regularly use her maiden name in introducing herself. If she had introduced herself as Martha Clark Kent, he would be really dead meat.

she admits to dating. Things can not be totally horrible. OK, she has not gone to Kansas yet, so maybe they can be.

Lois: Well, I don't want him to get out of my sight. That is something no girlfriend wants, right. Especially when they think their boyfriend is hiding something from them.

Clark, she knows. Tell her what the J really stands for now.

Kansas can be romantic. How else could people make a 10 season-long almost soap opera starting Clark Kent set there, at least for most of the seasons?

Lois:

See, I am a good girlfriend, sticking by my man. Also, I am not getting into danger, he who we try not to think of too much in the blue suit would be so proud.

Wouldn't this still give him a chance for an extremely quick trip to Kansas? Or do the airport restrooms lack convenient exit methods? Still even if he had to rush back throgh the airport, can't he just travel so fast no one sees him?

Clark you really should get a cell phone.

Lois: Kent you need to learn a lot better snooping skills from me. Always get phone numbers for everyone you know. See, you are not up to Kerth material yet if you know people for however long you have known Martha and don't get their phone number.

"Hi, this is Jerome. I am coming to visit with my work associate who only knows me by my other name Clark. We have to chekc out some farmer taken prisoner by supposed government agents, but when we come by your place, just plase call me Clark."

Just aske Lois who called her. She can tell you the Kents are OK. Whether she will at this point, who knows.

And let him difuse the situation and give the Topeka Journal the scoop? No way, Mr. Kent. If we want to get a really good story here, we need to be ready before Superman shows up.

She is thinking deeply on the situation.

Why not? Crazed, rouge government agents show up, throw her out of a plane, clean out a warehouse full of intriging material, and then vanish. They killed Mr. Thompson too if I remember correctly. So they feel above the law, murder, and have no respect for her, but want to prevent sexual relations with Superman. Clark sees Lex everywhere, Lois sees Bureau 39, eventually one or the other might be right. Maybe they both could be, Bureau 39 and Lex could join forces. She might be wrong sometimes, but so is Clark in suspecting Lex, so it all works. Well, actually, has Clark been wrong with any of his suspicions of Lex to date? Well, I guess he was wrong in suspecting Lex might kill Lois. Although he did shot her.

He doesn't know where Kryptonite first landed, does he?

Wow, Lois is being extremely cruel. I thought we were going to get this I am giving him plenty of alone time. Alone with me. That is the type of alone time boyfriends want, right.

Clark: It doesn't count if you eat double-fudge chocolate.

Lois: Hey, you can still kiss me.

Clark: Hm, and then I would have a really reason to be away for a little bit.

Well, at least people will recognize him.

Hey, I want a realy wedding cake. If I do this enough around Clark he will associate chocolate with me, and not his parents death, so we can have a real wedding cake

For those slow on Lois speak real wedding cake=chocolate.

Well, her teasing has not had any negative impacts on how Clark feels about her.

On the first reading I thought Clark was being a bit obtuse. However, on re-reading while I still see why Lois might not want to go to Tahiti, I think she needs to see that her holding onto Superman like this is really hurting Clark. Of course, she does not realize he knows how much she wanted to go to Tahiti. Nor does she realize that he became emotionally invested in taking her there months ago.


Clark that is not fair. Superman is not the one who kissed Lois yesterday. Do I have my timing right? Nor was Superman the one who she let feel her up, or who she ate pasta with in a very suggestive manner.

If you only know Clark, if you only knew.

Lois: However, I am the one who actually knows where we are going.

I still think Lois has far too low an estimation of how many people live in Kansas.

He will have miles and miles to prepare, so there won't be much shock.

But Lois, he has told you exactly why he does not have a credit card. You just thought he was joking about that, when it was the truth.

He does have a very good point.

Bad Clark. Don;t insult Lois' driving.

I was expecting him to try to take the walk option. It would give him the chance to get away from Lois for a bit.


Lois, has Clark ever blackmailed anyone. Come on, don't be so ridiculous. This is not Lex we are dealing with.

They really need to start including candy corn in the festival.

Well, there is also lots of art, music and theatre in places like Kansas, so neither claim is fair.

I have waited for plenty of trains to pass in the city limits of Detroit, so it is not like waiting at a train crossing is really only a rural experience.

This is 100% true if the community in question is the Kent/Irig farm complex.


All of Lois' theories are potentially accurate.

Go as close to the truth as possible.

He is really good at thinking of himself in the 3rd person.

he should have made sure details like who the sherrif were were the same. Although I can't really think why it should have matter. Well, yes, he should have figured Lois would become inquisitive about him, but he really did not account for the Lex effect.

The problem is she will not bring herself to fully love Clark Kent until she knows the whole truth about him. They have set up a catch-22, where neither can move forward because it is conditioned on the others actions.

I am not sure Lois could be more reckless. Anyway, this problem won't be solved by Lois unconditionally loving Clark.

Why has he given up on trying to procrastinate for time.

At least he did not call himself her borther. That would make things even more acward later on.

He is thinking on his feet fairly well. I am not sure this is a good plan, but he is holding it up fairly well, so far.

Obviously not. If he did, he would have realized the game was up with them.

Is she trying to signal to Clark she knows it is weird to say Jerome Lane?

She could have said "when me and Jerome married, he took my last name." Or "funny thing, Lane is also my maiden name. Jerome and I are second cousins, that sort of think is legal here in Kansas, right?"

At least Lois is enjoying herself.

At least Jonathan is doing everything he can to build up Jerome's cred. He also wisely didn't add "is that why she gets so many interviews with you"?

Lois is not paitient. She never accepts knowing later.

See I said later never works.

See, at least he was smart enough to use part of his name in this disguise.

I really think Clark should have come clean with Martha and Jonathan. However, even doing that would not have really satisfied Lois, so maybe this is the best he could do. It could be better, but things could be worse.

Hi Virginia,

I don't have a lot of time to comment, but I just wanted to tell you how much I loved this part, specially when Lois "remembers" Martha and wants to hug her.

John: I love that you had to come back and post more FDK. Oh, shucky-darn.

They'll get to town eventually.



Then either he'll find a way or he'll reveal himself to her. Same problem canon Clark had when he flew out to Smallville with his Lois.

Nope. Superman back to being himself. The Kents were reading an article about that in the paper the day he stopped by with the canning supplies.

He may have disappeared once or twice to go return videos.

No. Then she'd have to double back and pick him up or wait for him to come to her place. Anyway, if she lets him out of her sight, he'll have the opportunity to make a phone call.

Well, not ever. Just until she finds out why he's been lying to her.

CLARK: You can say that again.

You'd be surprised at how many times you see a woman holding a sheet to her body (on tv or in a movie) after having sex with a man, so he can't see her naked. Some people are just weird that way.

Many airport bathrooms have two entrances, but would he be able to make it out of the bathroom, out of the SECURE airport, to Kansas, check things out, and back in the time it takes the average man to use the restroom? I think not.

CLARK: They were pretty bulky back in 1993 and I already have to hide my Clark clothes during the spin. What if it rings while I'm out on a rescue?

CLARK: I couldn't see any instance where Jerome would need to phone the Kents about something.

CLARK: Now, you tell me!

LOIS: That would be a "not".

Yep.

Or she (unlike canon Lois) keeps wondering when they'll make their appearance again.

Of course, B39 - alien chasing group - really doesn't have much in common with what they know about this story. It's a stretch. A good one, but still a stretch, which is what Clark is saying.

Scary thought.

I think the only time Clark suspected Lex and it wasn't him was during Ides of Met. when he suspected that Lex had something to do with Henry Harrison because the guy once worked for LexCorp.

No, he doesn't know where Tempus got the Kryptonite.

Why you don't want to anger the woman you love, because she'll play cruel tricks like this on you. Again, she's still getting used to kissing a guy she needs to clean her mouth before she can kiss, it *could* have been an honest mistake (is how Clark took it). He was just thrilled she wanted to kiss him.

<see above> Doesn't recognize the teasing.

Nope.

Although Clark doesn't really want to associate throwing up to Lois's kisses. He's not that desperate to escape.

Uh-huh. They'll recognize "Jerome".

He's already been engaged to bridezilla who shoved wedding cake in his mouth for a week to try to get him to stop gagging on it.

CLARK: <blissfully daydreaming, while hoping they drive North from Topeka>

End of Part 1 FDK Response.

She doesn't know that CK=SM and therefore knows every conversation that she had with SM about things. A part of her will always mourn what could have been with Superman as when she thinks "Superman" a part of her is confusing him with her *original* Superman (*her* Clark).

CLARK: I know that. <pout> It's still annoying.

Yes, if there was only a way to bridge those two people together into one man...

Yep. But he's trying to gain control any way he can.

Don't cattle outnumber people 1000 to one in the state? <shrugs> Doesn't really matter to me.

Do optimists prepare for the worst case scenario?

CLARK: Well, I didn't want her to think I was crazy.

CLARK: I often do. Not that it matters.

CLARK: Just trying to disfuse tension with humor. Clearly, I don't know my audience.

He doesn't know where they're going and if he arrives before she does, it would be suspecious.

Who know if he would blackmail anyone? She doesn't really know this guy. He could be a master criminal for all she knows.

LOIS: Lex is the third richest man in the world and a philathropist. Why would he need to blackmail anyone? You're as bad as Clark.

CLARK: <aside> See! See! I'm not the only one who can't make her see reason.



I always thought that scene in GGGoH was a bit biased in both directions. Neither could see that both the city and the country have all of those things. <Actually, I think that's what they try to show with Martha's artwork, the line dancing, and the dress that Lois buys, that she was wrong about all of these things.>

Actually the High School theatre program in the small town where I currently live is top notch. Much better than the larger city where I grew up. Plus, we've got a symphony here. And arts and crafts is HUGE. It's what people do when they're stuck indoor during the winter. We also have had several drive by shootings and gang violence is up.

CLARK: I should have learned this by now, shouldn't I?

Best lies are mostly truth.

CLARK: It is one of my skills, yes.

Many people move from the country to the city and never look back. Yes, he didn't think his background was that important. He's learning otherwise.

A problem solved by communication, a skill these two reporters seem to be lacking.

This is brought up in "Ordinary People" and she admits to getting more reckless knowing that her back-up is Superman. Although, your second point is true.

He's worried they are going to have to make a hasty exit, so best to leave the suitcases in the car.

CLARK: <mouth full of foot> You mean, there was something worse I could have said?

CLARK: Really? I thought I was falling flat on my face, because my feet were in my mouth.

Yep.

No. But it's still weird to say.

I almost went with the "he took my name" line but decided against it. Second cousins? So true.

CLARK: I tried.

I got reemed by readers (and Betas) who wanted to know why Lois didn't call HER Clark "Jerome" in "Missing Lois", so I didn't make that mistake twice.

Lois is already upset with Clark. He was just trying not to lose everyone he cares about.

CLARK: As long as I can before Lois learns how to kill me.

A small hidden part of her knows that Martha is the go-to person for sympathy for the death of her Clark.

I will admit that the trip to Smallville won't be a complete disaster for Clark. A VERY small percentage of it will be a positive experience.

Christina: Oh, good, you noticed the double post. For some reason, when I post FDK on my laptop is does the same thing because the keys and touchpad are so sensative. Very frustrating.

Or telephoning home.

Yep. And he wouldn't have Lois as his back-up. Very bad case scenario.

Actually, everything that has to do with Lois makes him nervous.

No, she knew that she couldn't kiss Clark while eating Chocolate, which is why is eats it almost all the way to Kansas. She's not really in the mood to kiss Mr. Lying Pants at the moment.

In a way, yes.

CLARK: No, I wasn't thinking... But now that you bring it up. It is, isn't it?

Staying away was easier when she wanted to kiss Clark.

Whenever she thinks Tahiti, she will think Superman, so going there with Clark really isn't an option.

And, yes, poor Clark, but WHOSE fault is this?

Yep. She noticed.

Maybe. Maybe not.

Yes, indeedy.

LOIS: Two beds, yes.

CLARK: One bed, and maybe I can remind her why she liked me in the first place.

LOIS: Like THAT'S going to happen.

CLARK: It could.

LOIS: It won't.

CLARK: You never know.

LOIS: Trust me. I know.

Sydney! Thanks for stopping by. Long FDK not required. Any FDK appreciated.

Much more Awwwwwww moments with M&J coming up. Who knew this was really a love story between son and his adoptive-adoptive parents?

I figured, hopefully for the Corn Fest and the winning of Clarkie Bear. OK, I just figure you cannot have Lois go to Smallville and not win Clarkie Bear.

It still is best to not go there first. Best to first meet people who know Clark, even if not by that name.

After her marriage, when she uses Kent in introductions at all, Lois goes with Lois Lane Kent. So there are people who do such things.

I guess you have a point there. There is a reason Lois complained the bad guys were never in Maui. Also, the corn festival is not well known in L&C Metropolis. I guess he does need

Yes, Clark handled this badly.

WSell, if it was on their honeymoon, he might well be that impatient.

So, she afraid he’ll call somebody?

Right. She doesn’t have the time to wait for him to show up again after he vanishes for unexplained reasons.

And quick pre-travel nookie on the bed?

Yes, but not dating with benefits. Or partners with benefits.



I thought he was fire-proof? Oh, he didn’t say *burned* toast. She can still slap cheese and ham on him and grill him.

I’m guessing the distinctive scent of public relief stations dissuaded her from following him.

CLARK: Hello, Martha? This is the extra-dimensional visitor you’ve been giving shelter lately.

Of course, that just might to lead to Superman dropping out of the sky like a plane after it got hit with an EMP.

Hmm…

Isn’t that even more dangerous for Superman?

Ooooh! Nauhgty!

Oooooh! Evil. She’s really set out to make him suffer and then suffer some more, huh? Sounds like she’s much more in control of her urges since she got Lucy’s birthday present.

Maybe if she kept spare batteries at home?

Hey, they’re perfectly safe. As long as they don’t crash into something. Or run out of fuel. Have an equipment malfunction. Bomb. Fly through a time portal.

Hmm…I think I know why he’s so averse to flying in planes.



CLARK: Well…in the early days it got started with the town’s maidens running around, trying to evade being captured by one of the corn farmers’ sons and being given a corn cob. These days, it’s much more civilized and the sons actually have to ask a maiden if she’s a) a maiden still, and b) if she’s interested in the corn cob he’s carrying.

LOIS: Lovely.

CLARK: So, you still a maiden?

LOIS:

So, green-K dust in the air?
