Hi Barbara!
Given my recent catchup, this immediately caught my attention. Given the “deranged mind” though, I was expecting a villain. My bad.
LOIS:
I think Michael got it in one.
CLARK:
trying to hold back Fear. Joy stared at the purple emotion, who was at least three times his usual size.
Oh boy, that’s gonna be a fun discussion during the Contact break-up.
Sadness took a deep breath. “This is it, guys. Revelation initiated in three, two, one…” His trembling finger hovered over the button for a second before he pressed it.
They had a *button* for this the entire time?
SADNESS: Yes, and? /Points at button labelled ‘v-card’/ we also have*other* buttons that we don’t press unless there’s very special circumstances.
We’re hoping that shock therapy is going to shrink Fear back to his usual size.”
Like kissing Lois?
Fear pushed the buttons even more frantically. Suddenly, there was a green cursor blinking on the screen, and words appeared. <Do you want to initiate the manual override?>
he got root access. This reminds me of an old vulnerability, don’t know which system, though, where you could trigger the command line one the login screen and thus got root permissions.
Frozen in shock, Anger, Sadness, Joy and Disgust watched as Clark got to his knees and pulled out an engagement ring. “Lois... will you marry me?” A huge grin plastered across his face, Fear did another dance beside the console.
Oops?
Fear gave him a smug smile. “Of course she will. All will be well, you’ll see,” he said with an uncharacteristic cheerfulness.
Yeah…
The words <Danger! Secret revealed> flashed across the screen.
Oops?
“Did I really just ask her to marry Clark without telling her his secret?”
Needs to press the random-excuse button really quick?
“Okay, let’s fix this. The first one who can come up with a half-way decent explanation gets one shift off groveling duty.”
But you'll probably get Lois' reaction, too...
Wheeeeeeeee!
This was another great installment. I do love them
Michael
