Thanks, y'all!
If you've had half as much fun reading this as I've had, writing it, then... I guess I've had twice as much fun as you <g>
Yes, I have K plotted in my head (in broad overview; the details will be a nice surprise to me!), but I haven't got anything written down yet. And I have ideas I want to play with for L, M, and N, as well... <g> Though I still have no idea how I ended up re-writing first season
Best of all, though, you've left us some loose ends for K: there's Lex Luthor, and there's Lois's still-evident discomfort about Clark's mother; she doesn't quite believe that everything's fine there. That could be rather interesting in a future story!
Well, I'm glad you like the dangling threads thing, since it was your fault that I left those ends loose! There I was, trying to write the wrap-up at the farm scene, but it just wasn't working... so Wendy says maybe I don't need to address those points yet... I apologize to everyone who was looking forward to it, and I do promise to follow up on that stuff, but it'll be in context of future stories.
And hey, personally I'm pretty pleased about Lois getting off to such a strong start to a friendship with Jonathan!
But, also, what of Trask now? Does he exist at all in Pam's Alphabet Universe? Or will he sneak up on Clark when we're least expecting it - in L is for Lunatic, perhaps? Or X is for Xenophobe? Or C is for Conspiracy-Theorist?
My theory of episode rewrites is that the changes that make the heros act so very differently have a much lesser effect on the villains. Though I admit I cheated a little by ignoring Smart Kids, and I do feel guilty about that... maybe I'll figure a way to write some reference to it in K <g>
So... yes, he's still out there. Somewhere.
So you think I should tell you what K is for? This speculation is just too fun for me to spoil <g> Honestly, I think the fun possibilities with titles is half the reason I keep writing these things.... but oh, okay... at the moment, unless something cleverer occurs to me,
K is for Knot Yet.Thanks very much, Liz, Wendy, Jose, Kathy, Karen, Joy, Maria, Laura, Tank, Gerry, Sherry, Tricia, Saskia & Nan! Thanks again to everyone who's commented on any of the parts along the way; it's great to know there's an audience
