Elizabeth Re the rings and Sam and Uncle Mike - I wanted a way to make the vows more public. This seemed the ideal opportunity.
Virginia This Clark/Superman is certainly more reliant on Lois than the canon version.
Laura You will see RR again - one more time
Kathy Clark wearing a ring - I didn't mean to convey surprise in Lois's question. She was simply trying to guard against misunderstanding. She's a well-traveled agent from Metropolis, he's a Kansas farmer. And in experience, he's more like a 21 year old than his age of 28. But that was *before* the amnesia! And he's from another planet! Although the husband wearing a ring is the norm, (in Australia, too) Lois had a few good reasons not to automatically assume that Clark would follow the norm.
Your preview of my preview
wasn't too far from the mark!
Jen You feeling torn makes me very
Thanks!
Iolanthe The hair gel - how did you pick up that I don't like it much?
DW Having Lois there at the 'birth' of Superman and knowing the 'secret' at the start allows her to see Clark so much more clearly.
Michael Deller seems to have had quite a mind of his own.
From Junction 6 (I know that was a *long* time ago.)
"What was Deller like?" she asked. "When did he join the operation?"
"He started a week after me. He was here for just over a year."
"What was he like?"
Shadbolt shrugged. "He did his job."
Lois sent him a frown of incredulity tempered with a glint of amusement. "You're an agent," she said. "And you're not dead. You *have* to be better at reading people than that."
He didn't smile, but the animosity of his scowl diminished a little. "Deller was like an angry dog. He never backed down, he had an opinion on everything, he always knew best, and he thought anyone who disagreed with him was an imbecile."
Was he related to Lois somehow?
Jackie Next part is posted.
Thanks to everyone for the comments. I just sent the final part to the BRs, so if RL is nice, I'll be able to post reasonably quickly now.
Corrina.
