Oooh! I didn't expect to find so much feedback this "morning". (I posted past 3AM, so morning to me is 1PM. LOL!) Thank you so much! I'm more than a little blown away by your FDK.
LOL! Since when am I worthy of that sort of expression?
Hmmmm, yes - reminds me of all those years when he'd show her that he was interested, only to show her that he wasn't interested....
*Exactly*! The big lunkhead!
And don't forget to turn off your cheese and take it to the dentist for a haircut while you're at it!

OMG, Ann, you totally killed me with that one!!
And, yes, of course, Clark was being a coward, making up lies and stories... but she gets that he was protecting a secret; that the goal was this and that he wasn't just making up things for the heck of it. That's what I meant.
You really got a laugh out of me with that peacock story.

Very funny!!
I'm absolutely tickled pink that you guys think the dialog was so good. I try real hard to make it work and not too OOC - so to read comments like these, saying I've done a good job of it, is just absolutely priceless!
I like this because it shows again so clearly how much Clark means to her and how much Bruce doesn't. She loves Clark enough to spend a lot of extra time yelling at him!
Ya know, in light of everything, I think he got off real easy... *lol* But then, you should see how easily she let him off the hook in the comics - they'd been engaged for a few months before she found out and she barely even had a fit!!! (Even though it took 50 years before he told her. *lol* Luckily comic-book time is weird)
Thank you all for the wonderful comments. You guys totally make it worth staying up until dawn working on stories.
