Lois & Clark Forums Forums Fan Fiction Fanfic Challenge What if.... Challenege

80. What if Clark had been the one to be promoted to editor when Perry got his own promotion?

81. What if Lois hadn't come from a broken home? What if Clark had?

82. What if Clark had known about Zara all along? (Perhaps assuming she'd perished when Krypton exploded.)

Shameless Plug Alert!!!

I did this in Resurrection No More

83. What if Lois hadn't figured out that CK = SM before he proposed? When would he have told her? Especially given that he was trying to tell her earlier in the episode.

84. What if Lois had turned Clark down when he asked her out in The Phoenix?
Oh, and that makes me think of another one

85. What if they'd actually gone out when he asked her in the Pilot? Instead of having dinner with Luthor?

86. What if the New Kryptonians had arrived during Season 1 and mistaken Vatman for Kal-El?

87. What if the Kryptonian virus in HIWTHI had made humans sick?

88. What if the initial exposure to red Kryptonite had changed Clark's personality permanently?

89. What if the New Kryptonians had shown up when Lois was Ultrawoman and Clark was powerless?

90. What if Lois couldn't be revived after Superman froze her in ATAI?

91. What if Revenge had affected both Lois and Clark?

(So many possibilities!)

#90 has been partially answered in The Cold Shoulder and fully answered in She\'s, both stories by me. I suggest some hankies or a box of tissues along with some recovery time for either one. (I say that only because of the feedback each of these tales generated.)

/end shameless plug

And let me add another one.

92. What if Lois hadn't come back from the Congo? How long would Clark look for her, and when (if ever) might he give up?

93. What if Lois and Clark didn't figure out a way to escape their cages in Tim and Amber Lake's collection, at least not for an extended period of time, a week or more?

94. What if Lois had been telling the truth when she told Tempus that she grabbed onto the time machine and really did get trapped in 1866 Smallville?

That sounds like something I would do. I've never written L&C fic, I read so many great stories that I've been too intimidated to try. But I have written Chuck fic and in one of my first stories I permanently blinded my favorite character.

95. What if Baby/Toddler Zara had been sent to Earth along with Baby Kal-El? (I've seen Kal-El goes with the New Kryptonians, but not this direction!)

They wouldn't know about the arranged marriage until they found the globe. They would probably have assumed they were brother and sister and would think of each other that way. Even kids who know they aren't related tend to exclude people they grow up with from romantic feelings. This caused problems with arranged marriages where two royal houses arranged it when the kids were very young and had the bride live with the grooms family. When they became old enough they would marry and even care for each other but not have sex and kids. If they grew up with the Kents I can't imagine the caring about the arrangement anyway.

95a) The New Kryptonians come looking for both of them.
