DW she is unexpectedly to go away for a few days
Time to clear up a misunderstanding. AFAIK, you can fly from one side of the USA to the other in about 5 hours. If we assume Kansas is somewhere in the middle, that's about 2.5 hours. So, if Lois were to leave really early, she could be back the same day. 5 hours of flying, 3 hours of driving from Wichita to Smallville and back, 3 hours in Smallville. Leave about 6am, return about 5pm. Does that work?
So she won't have to swap her shifts much - and she won't have to leave Clark for too long.
Elizabeth Any comment I make is going to give away too much.
MozartMaid Uhmm - again, if I answer definitively, I'm going to give away half of the plot. All I will say is that Lois *will* go to Smallville.
Laura I'm so glad it made your day, Laura.
Bellarase Your day, too, Bellarase.
Lois - I think she would have seen a lot in her job - granted, she probably didn't see too many alien creatures,
but it takes a lot to rattle her.
Kathy Clark wouldn't be Clark if he thought about his own safety before Lois's
Emily Lois's display of trust by allowing him to glimpse some of her insecurities went a long way. She needs him too!
That's a crucial point. Lois does need Clark.
I'm on serious high alert for the other shoe to drop.
Uhmmmm.
Vicki I hope your computer problems get fixed quickly. Thanks for phoning in your FDK.
Lady Moira One of the things I really enjoy about writing the LnC relationship is that they can 'gel' quickly. Blame it on the soul mate thing!
Michael The cleaning up will come. Clark might just need that diagram one day. But there is no evil plan - at least not by me. I intend to keep Tempus *out* of this fic!
Laura So glad you had a happy birthday, Laura.
Again, many thanks to everyone for reading and letting me know your thoughts. My muse (I feel I know Bob's muse personally
so perhaps this is the time to introduce mine - his name is Goo, and he's a workaholic!) always resonds well to such wonderful comments.
Corrina.
