Very well done. I wish my students (most of whose first -- and probably only -- language *is* English) could write even a quarter as well as you do.
I actually like that you did not spell out here the reconciliation between Lois and Clark -- that you left it to the reader's imagination. While such a scene would be interesting to read, should it be in a sequel, it would have diluted the impact of this story as it currently stands.
Brava!
Joy,
