Michael: At first I thought this was another 4-Part FDK!
True.
What?! <<bats eyelashes innocently>> You just hate it when I slip in canon dialogue, don't you?
Maybe they should go and find a private room and see if he actually fits before she discounts it out of hand?
She's trying! Oh, you mean Clark. Nevermind.
Ouch. And hey! Did he just diss Lois for canon Lois?
He was making a joke, since he figures Lois will never know about the other Lois. He'll always have a soft spot in his heart for canon Lois.
But she’s a nurse. And her father’s a surgeon. They could come rushing in and patch her up in no time. She’d be hunky-dory when they transfer her to the asylum.
Her father's in hiding, so they can't contact him. Her mom's a pain, so recovery wouldn't be faster than with Clark as her nurse.
“Lucy? It’s Clark. Kent. Yes, the ‘hunk’. No. Yes. Lois is staying with me tonight. No, she has only lost a little bit of blood after being punctured by- What do you mean ‘finally’ and ‘that’s great’? Lucy? Lucy, why are you giggling. That’s *not* fu- Lucy? ‘Have fun’? Lucy, did you just hang up? Lucy?”
/imagines headline/ “Lex Luthor questioned after attempted shooting of Lois Lane” And the blub “Ms. Lane, after having been shot in cold blood by Lex Luthor using his own weapon, has been hospitalized and is currently recovering from her injuries. Lex Luthor is being questioned by police inspector Henderson, who declined comment on the subject at this time.”
Okay, it wouldn't be *that* hard to write.
95% Lex's fault. 4% Superman's. 1% Clarks'.
And we’ve had made such fine progress…
The night's still young.
I’m not sure she’s up for that ATM.
A machine that gives you money from your bank? Do you mean PDA?
Must be the loss of blood. Say, is Kryptonian blood compatible with hers?
Well, she *was* horny for him earlier in the evening but Lex interrupted. And, been there, done that.
That’s called ‘secretary’ not ‘partner’. Although, the boss-secretary liaison is a time-honored tradition.
Which is why Clark's isn't balking.
Now she’s playing *that* card? So, what happens when Clark gets shot?
Um... bullets bounce off him?
She’s going to think *that’s* where his aversion to caramel comes from.
If they hadn't had nurse interruptus.
He'd need to have some super skills to sneak in you're saying?
It’s over? Why is it over? Hmm? Hmm? Also, I’m sorry if the FDK went a bit long again… Was this part longer than usual?
22 pages double spaced, so yes, a bit longer than my usual 15-20 D.S. pages per part, but I didn't want to leave off without this scene at the hospital. Originally I was going to have him tell her about his folk's death in the ambulence, but then I figured too many people around.
