For a brief instant, part of me wished Lana would meet some accidental fate and that he'd decide that giving us a *real* try might be worth a shot. No, accident wouldn’t work – he'd just mourn her. Move on and get married – maybe.
But I didn't want to be second choice. I didn't want to 'win' by default.
This made me giggle just a bit--it's not the first time I've read Lois' thoughts on death as "winning by default."
Clark say something interesting here:
wouldn't I know by now if it was Lois?
I think he'd know by now if the circumstances were a lot different...but that's apples and oranges.
Great parts,
JD
