Well, Lois did get some information out of Clark. Lots of questions without answers, though.

Is it enough for Bruce et al to figure out:

  • Who Clark is
  • Who his "employer" is, and
  • What kind of hell he's been living?


Maybe the key is if they realize that he's used to being treated with anger and isolation that another sincere approach might work better? Although I'm not sure if he'd react badly to kindness, I could see it throwing him for a loop. lol

Interesting that Clark seems to be the only one who has sympathy for the others' pain. Of course, we're not in their heads at this point.

Looking forward to more in this saga. Hurry back,please! grovel

Everyone is very much trying to figure each other out. There's a lot of mutual anger/hatred to slog through before anyone can even think about kindness. So...it's gonna be bumpy. laugh

You're right - we're only in Clark's head. But there's not a lot of room for Bruce or Lois to be sympathetic to Clark right now. They only know him as a killer. He's murdered people they cared about. Clark knows this and that he's to blame even if he didn't want to do it. So of course he's got a hefty dose of guilt going on. He's a killer, but he still has a little bit of a conscience. Bruce and Lois have literally no idea what's been going on in Clark's life so they have no guilt or feelings for his plight.

Thanks for reading and glad you're enjoying this very weird universe I've set up. smile
