Let me start out with a general comment. Lo-lo has got to be the most challenging character that I’ve ever tackled. Every time I thought I found her, I later discovered that this wasn’t the real Lo-lo. How much Lois? How childish? How much sex drive? How confident? How fragile? I have her now, but this was
WAY more challenging than I thought.

And oh my, how the plot thickens. I had completely forgotten about Luthor, and how he might react to all this. As scary as he is, though, could he actually be helpful? After all, if a man with his resources decides to find a cure for Lois' condition, that's more likely to make progress than anything Clark could do by himself
Hmmm. What a concept…
Lois's relationship with her new Lo-Lo persona is interestingly complex. She's not a full-on split personality; she has the same memories, and can remember how "Lois" would think, etc. But at the same time, she seems to want a complete separation from her old identity.
Her behavior makes me think of mental illness, which I guess is appropriate since she's under the influence of a drug that changes people's thinking patterns in unhealthy ways. Clark isn't merely Lois' boyfriend; he's her caretaker now.
See my note at the top. All that stuff I said about Lo-lo, you can say all that about how she interacts with Clark and how Clark thinks of her.
SJH:
Well, be careful what ya ask for. Lo-Lo is a hoot.
I think so too.

With only four parts left I am very interested in how you will have Lois recover.
No guarantees. I liked Queen’s PML enough to write this. And
that ends with Lo-lo being around as Mrs. Kent for what… 15 years or so?
