Yeah, it looks like Clark did save Chad's life at the quarry. But what happened to Chad to make Lois so distrustful of romantic relationships? Did he dump her after their first night together, or did she dump him, or did he die under circumstances she thinks were her fault? So many variations, so little time.
I'm glad Lois ran to Clark before she ran to Superman. But it almost read as if she jumped into the pond to hug both men, yet she wasn't wet. It wasn't all that clear to me, although I might have missed that detail.
Now Clark knows he doesn't want to be "normal." He wants his powers back, and maybe he'll figure out how to use them effectively. But it's too early for that! We've still got more than thirty chapters to go!
I wasn't sure about this premise when I first started reading the tale, but you've convinced me that it's more than worth my time. Keep it up! And post more soon!
