If Lisa had been afraid of bugs, she'd have gone mad the first time her hearing had appeared. On a quiet day, when it wasn't drowned out by the larger sounds of the human world, Lisa could hear the sounds of thousands of feet marching through the soil beneath her. Interspersed with those sounds were occasional tiny popping sounds that had puzzled her until she'd asked her father about them.
When he'd explained, she'd flushed and giggled. An anthill sounded a little like popcorn in a microwave sometimes, and Lisa could simply lie in the sun all day just enjoying the sounds of the earthworms crawling through the ground.
I absolutely and totally loved this, Shayne. Particularly since you had Lois say to Clark in the previous chapter that she, unlike him, couldn't hear ants farting!
But the kidnapping of Lisa was almost more than I could take! Please, please, please save Lisa soon. Maybe better yet, let Lois do it! (And maybe she can save Clark at the same time?)
