Lots going on in this chapter! A new plan for Clark's house, Lois is having some big feelings about those wedding rings, and Mattie is *super* cranky about her homework assignment. wink

I challenge any child to be happy about homework. Poor Mattie she’s so terrified. Well handled by both Clark and Lois here. Hope she’s ok

That's an interesting twist and number two on my list of possible developments. So Mattie is showing first signs of powers. So bad this story is written from Lois' POV. I'd have loved to listen in on that conversation

I got so behind, but now I'm caught up!!

GAHHH! I *LOVED* this part!!! LOVE the house for Martha idea! LOVE the amazing parenting at Mattie's show of powers! (And it sounds like she's starting to realize that maybe she's had some powers for a bit longer than anyone figured!) I'm so sad for Lois and the wedding rings--it just breaks my heart! But I will say that I was super impressed and proud of her for how much emotional intelligence and growth it must have taken to so quickly realize what was bothering her about Clark's behavior, AND then she was able to comfort and reassure him AND tell him what she needed. I hope she gives herself credit for how awesome all that is, especially because I know she's beating herself up about the whole marriage/wedding/wife situation.

The conflict/irritation/hovering between Clark and Lois is just one of the hurdles they must overcome before they can fully reintegrate. It'll be a hard slog, full of false leads and twists and turns and maybe some loud fights (but NO violence). I have confidence that you'll bring them in for a safe landing, Annie. This story continues to fascinate me, and I'm ready for the next chapter.

Is it up yet?

Love the idea of Martha having somewhere to live when she visits.

I also really liked the conversation between them about all the things he was doing for her. They need to be on equal footing with each other - not one of them always worried the other will leave.

Love Marrie's first show of power
