Hi Michael. I'm looking forward to your comments ... here we go.
Set in an alt universe in which Clark revealed himself to the world at 18 years old and is the most famous man/celebrity in the world. Lois Lane is the most famous/glamorous News discussion/talk-show host. What will happen when Superman is a guest on her show.
Oh boy. Now that’s a premise!
Thanks. Now - did the story live up to it or not?
There was only one person that these unexpected calls of appreciation could be for … and Lois could not fault anyone for their desire to make that appreciation known.
Lex Luthor, the most eligible bachelor around?
LOL. Nope (deadpan). They are cheering for the next guy about to come through the door. You know, the one that is actually the main character.
When he lifted his hand and waved in a most natural, friendly … and slightly shy manner, she knew it wasn’t stage fright.
Aww…she’s all in heat and stuff

Yes, her personal hope for tonight is to get past her teenage crush.
Plus … I have actually been turned away from Mr Luthor's orphanage,
Oops?
Well, I couldn't actually see Luthor approving a visit by the Man of Steel, could you?
Immediately shocked back into action she blurted out the first thought in her head. "Can you come decorate my apartment this year?"

My son has finally found an interest in concubines! I thought that would never happen.
Hey ... he wouldn't necessarily take her up on the offer, but he wouldn't be annoyed at her attentions!!!!
If he was every woman's fantasy, then Lois Lane … she was every intelligent man's fantasy. And he was definitely an intelligent man.
So…

?
Mmmmmmm
Although they were both famous they had never crossed paths.
He could have invited her to the annual New Year’s shindig at the Foundation. He could have instituted it 4 years ago, waited a year to let it settle and then invite Lois by last year’s New Year.
Ooooh. Nice idea. *ponders*
But his assistant cautioned him. Lois Lane was well known for leading guests into a false sense of security with her affable charm, and then blindsiding them with something she wanted to expose.
LOIS: Yes, I want to expose something of him.
Maybe when she was a teenager ... now she's trying to kill those thoughts.
Clark watched as Lois read through the white slips then crumpled them and slid them down the side of the chair, out of sight.
Hmm…
It's just notes from the director and some questions from the viewers to put into part two.
Gone because ‘crush' would be an inadequate word to use from this moment on.
Love sick stalker that requires his target to setup leadlined drapes?
Oh my. Yeah, something like that.
"Um. I … I asked if anyone could take part with them …" He looked over at the chubby older man who was grinning back like a little child. "It seems that I'm going to be joining."
Fishing for votes?
Could be ... he is genuine, but nothing wrong with free positive publicity though.
Mayor Frank Berkowitz was well loved and only just recently elected in anyway. Even when she'd challenged him earlier on the bad permit decisions she'd known it wasn't his fault personally.
Huh. So, previous administration? Now, Lois, that’s a low blow!

Now, go, and get yourself five slaps on your heiny from Superman.
Actually - just elected in was actually 're-election'. I only meant to point out that the election had been recent and was nothing to do with his decision.
And … she couldn't think of a more unlikely person to see in a Santa suit … or running for charity. But … maybe she'd get another surprise.
He could go as Krampus. Also, why isn’t Lois dressing up as a Naughty Elf for the run?
I'm guessing there's plenty that want to see that...
"Unfortunately, I have an appointment in Milan on New Year's Day, so I will not be in Metropolis. I am most distressed at that. It would have been a wonderful opportunity."
That should be easy to check.
Uh huh. *nods*
"Then perhaps you can assure you me that the reason this application"- Lois flung a brown cardboard folder over the glass coffee table - "has been in your system for nine months is quite innocent, and you are only following protocol." She watched as Mr Kent leaned forwards and slid the folder over.
She digging in dirt? She does know that digging in dirt usually gets you dirty yourself, right?
It's not really dirt. In the end, even if she is right, all it proves is that the Superman Foundation has lousy administration.
