Aha. Nice lovebird twist here. Why do I have the strong feeling that's a red herring to some darker purpose? Must be reading too many Tank fics lately. wink

As Bethy observed, it's a little sad to see that both sets of parents consist of domineering husbands and submissive wives. I was also a little jerked out of the story by Clark squatting down to talk to Jamie's sister on her level. You do that for pre-teens, yes. But a fifteen-year-old? Wouldn't she be more likely to be annoyed at what she percieved to be condenscension? (I think I spelled that wrong. :rolleyes: ) The girl's response also seemed younger than fifteen to me.

Be that as it may, it's fun to read of Lois and Clark actually doing some investigative reporting for a change. But if it turns out that J&J did run away to elope or what have you, I have little sympathy for them: they must have known how their mothers felt about them. Why didn't they care enough to let them know they were all right? grumble Let us know soon, okay? laugh

Lois: You know the deal.
Clark: Superman gets the guys in capes, Lois and Clark get the guys in suits.
