This was great ^_^ thumbsup

I still think it was insane that Stride had jumped and just assumed Superman would save her.

I loved how Lois here stood up for Superman and squashed any investigation into finding the reason why he didn't save her. Lois is right, no one should put themselves in danger and ASSUME he'll save them.

As for the ending, I really would love another part..... twins but either way, glad you shared this clap

Thank you for the kind comments
I was aiming for it just to be a short story I wasn't planning on adding the date. Might extend it

Welcome back!! I love that so many FoLCs are coming back in the last few years!

Ahh, it was good to see Clark make Lois a priority instead of rushing off to every call for help—and the only way he *could* do that was to assure himself that the emergency services were there and had the situation handled. That said, I do love that he shows some guilt at the end too, thinking he didn’t have a good reason not to be there. Very Clark of him!

Nice little “what if”!

I agree with Blueowl that it was very presumptuous of Stride to jump off the building and assume that Superman would save her! eek

Interesting take here, and I also agree with Sara that it is very "Clark" of him to feel guilty about it, since he did hear that there was an emergency but chose to let emergency services handle it. I wonder how differently he would have felt if it had been a different kind of emergency (not someone making a spectacle to try to bait Superman but a legitimate emergency or something else).

Thank you for sharing!

I can imagine that had someone else been in fire (one of the other residents for example) and it may have had him rethink his dating Lois. I chose to make sure everyone else was saved to keep it short.

My head is already think about alt versions and an extension LOL

This is an interesting premise. I wonder how Clark would deal with not saving Diana Stride, even if Lois is absolutely right that she had no right to assume Superman would save her.

Welcome back

Welcome back!

Christopher Lane, Lois' cousin and parttime rocker. Now that was cool. dance

Everything Lois said was true, Diana Stride endangered the building's residents by setting a fire, simply to attract Superman. He had never met her before, so there was no reason for him to break away from whatever else he was doing to rescue her. Very fresh take of that episode.

The ending was not that clear. It sounded like Lois knew Clark was Superman.

Anyhow, again, welcome back to the boards. party

A writer's job is to think of new plots and create characters who stay with you long after the final page has been read. If that mission is accomplished than we have done what we set out to do, which is to entertain and hopefully educate.
