Nice story, Lynn. I was expecting the child to be naked, not the mom. Mothering Todd sure is forcing Lois to change in ways that are very challenging for her. For one thing, she has to admit that she needs help, and for another, she has to trust the goodwill of complete strangers. And I can't even imagine what Lois and Clark will do if Todd develops powers. I'd imagine they have Bernie working on a way to prevent that if it's possible. That's an entirely new ethical dilemma.
For the record, I love one-shots; they're all I have time to read these days. Thanks for posting this one.
