I loved Lara and Lois in this chapter. Kind of didn't like Clark, though. He seemed a bit whiny to me. Come on - I agree it would be a huge blow to find out you were lied to and told your entire planet had exploded, but I feel like he's getting a bit too upset about the fact that his parents had him before they were married and then gave him up.

That is not that uncommon and... well, he's an adult. He should be able to deal with these types of things better. (Just to be clear - I'm not saying he doesn't have a right to be upset, but I think he's a bit more upset than the situation warrants. Whatever he finds out about his past, he has a great present and shouldn't put it in so much jeapordy by ignoring his wife.)

But, forgive me, feelings for Clark from OTOH seem to sometimes spill into other Clarks as well. (This is particularly troubling when it's my Clark and I can't recall writing anything that would annoy me...) So, maybe he's being perfectly reasonable, and I just want to be annoyed at him. wink

I loved that fact that Martha and Jonathan are acting like rational adults here and are great to Lara, and Lois' taking matters into her own hands is so in character it made me laugh.
