I like the ending focusing on Clark and the kids as it probably would anytime Clark is around kids...
I also liked Zara declining the dinner invite because she had picked up a slice of pizza on the way over. One it shows her acceptance in the Lois and Clark family and two she has adapted to those "nutritionally worthless snack foods".
Of course this being me, I would have preferred a more story time being spent here on this part of the story but I will take what I can get. Lets us speculate on what else has happened over the past year.

Hi, Mike!

Glad you enjoyed it. I actually purposefully left the details of the past year out, because I felt it would hinder, rather that aid, the close of the story. I also left it open so that my muse (if she so desires) can come back and fill in the gaps at a later point (I make zero promises).
I liked throwing in the pizza remark myself. I wanted to show just how well Zara has adjusted to life on Earth, as a permanent citizen, rather than a visitor with an agenda. It had the added benefit of showing just how much she's been accepted into the Kent family, how comfortable all three adults are around one another.
