Love this, VSP!
“Well, can’t you see? I’m grooming your mother! Look, isn’t she *beautiful*? You can see how silky smooth her skin is, and how her hair has such a healthy sheen to it!” Clark said proudly.
The fact that Lois is being so good natured about this...it gives me the feeling of a couple who's been married a long time, and will tolerate just about anything. Season 1 Lois would have killed him by now. And yet, this tolerance doesn't seem "out of character" for Lois; rather, it feels like growth. It's late, so I apologize if that's all giberish, but basically: Kudos to you for handling her character so well.

This is a great story, and a *fantastic* universe! You do this so well. Keep it up!
