Cute! I loved the Lois and Clark interaction and of course the information on Giraffes.

H Bek! gah, I don’t know how you managed to convince me to go in the Bug House—never again, Clark. He bugged her until they did. And up ahead, oh! The Bat Cave. Ha!” Will they meet the inhabitant? A grin he loved. Er, liked. Right. He liked it. A lot. /Cocks eyebrow/ The stroller, which sat precariously on the top of a small slope. The stroller, which— “Clark, come on.” Superduty needed? All without waking the sleeping baby or spilling his popcorn. “Clark, that’s—really, Clark? That is not a giraffe.” Perfectly season one! The okapi really looks nothing like a giraffe.” “Well, actually, Lois…” The End. *End Notes: The okapi is an artiodactyl mammal that belongs to the family Giraffidae  Adorably written! She was, after all, the sleeping baby girl in the stroller... Eeep!  Michael

Very good SuperBek! I think you've got the makings for a good children's book series here! Including the part where your daughter is miraculously secretly saved by the super hero. And illustrated by none other than that same little girl! Good job!

I admit, I did have the opening scene from S1 E3 (Neverending Battle) in mind when I wrote this! Very good SuperBek! I think you've got the makings for a good children's book series here! Including the part where your daughter is miraculously secretly saved by the super hero. And illustrated by none other than that same little girl! Good job! Ah, I can see it now... The Metropolis Zoo somehow has a series of near accidents, miraculously prevented at the last moment by an unseen hero. And all while Lois remains blissfully ignorant. My daughter would LOVE to make the drawings for me. Thank you all for reading! -Bek

I LOVE zoos!! (So I already knew about the okapi... though I didn't see it coming when Clark said "Look! A giraffe!" What a great line, really!) Loved this ficlet! It was so fun! Great job with the characterizations! And I also loved the title  Thank you for sharing it!
