What wonderful feedback! No fooling!
, Terry.
Mrs. Luthor, glad you enjoyed it. I don't do pranks in RL (I have too much empathy for the hypothetical victim to perpetrate pranks), but I enjoyed coming up with these.
Laura, if there were an alt-Kerth for most-consistent-FDK-er, I think you'd win it. Thank you.
Mouserocks, in my mind, Lucy actually won; she certainly gave Lois a lot of grief with her prank. But it was pretty close.
Patrick, thanks for the FDK.
Virginia, I'd say the sisters were almost evenly matched. After all, if Lucy does call Ellen, I actually pity Lois when Ellen gets a hold of her!
Well, next year, Lois could always set Lucy up with Wally... Or Superman... You know, Jimmy. He does have a blue suit.
Speaking of...she can always make Lucy think that she and Clark are expecting...that would be evil.
Hmmm... Then I really wouldn't want to be Lois once Lucy told Ellen that "news"! I'm not sure even Clark would survive the earful he'd get from her.
There was only one problem.
She only had a year to come up with an even better prank.
Annnnd...so does the author!
I'm beginning so sense a theme here...
Michael, you are more eloquent with graemlins than many people are with words.
/waits for sequel from Lucy, since there’s still time. And pencils in second sequel for next year.
Yup. There is definitely a theme going. I'll put in a request with my muse for another April Fools-related story for next year. I fear that my muse has almost never listened to me in the past; you've read my "With Apologies to Female Hawk," so you know what I am talking about. But there is always a first. At least Thalia and I are back on speaking terms now.
Joy,
Lynn
p.s., edit:
But ten minutes together was enough for me to realize that she wasn't mature enough to handle a man of my sophistication. So I dumped her.
He? Her? Unless he’s just spinning a tail, getting confused with his pronouns again.
Ah. I see you picked up on that.
Yup, he dumped her... In exactly the same way that someone might say, "You can't fire me! I quit!" Ralph does have a way of spinning facts to try to make himself look good. The operative word here being "try."
