Great story, Lara!
Just as much fun as the first, and you write their interaction so well. I would love to see a sequel!

Ah gee, I didn't say anything?! I thought I did. Maybe I did and I'm blind. I read it while I was at work, so I couldn't have, hmm. I really enjoyed it Sorry I have to run.
I've converted to lurk-ism... hopefully only temporary.

Hey Roo Ok... I *totally* cannot help myself: Maybe I did and I'm blind. Blind? As a bat? (hey, I said I couldn't help it, that means it's probably only funny in my head! And you had fair warning!) I'm glad you enjoyed it!

What a great,funny story!!! "Oh, dammit! Lois Lane, you are as blind as you are dense! Let me spell it out for you. Clark. Kent. Is. Batman." "What is it, Lois? You want to plunge the dagger even deeper into my self-esteem?" I busted out laughing at these two lines...it's genius. Great job 
Clark: "Can I have a rat chief? Can I, huh? Please?"
Perry: "Clark, do you want me to send you to the dark room?"
Clark: "The dark room?"

Lara, you are a hoot! And so is this story!

 Thank you!! That dagger reply, I have to admit, is one of my favorite lines in this one. I can really imagine him telling her that. hehe! I'm so glad that you guys are enjoying this. There's going to be a third part in a few days (can't say exactly when I'll be done, but soon). And I've got an idea for a story that Ann should like, to redeem myself for making Lois so incredibly blind in this... that one is going to have a galactically stupid Clark in it instead. But even though I have pieces of that in my head already, I have no idea when I'll be ready to post it, so don't hold your breath just yet.

This was a fun story to read. I can't believe that Lois is that galactically stupid!  I look forward to the sequel and what Lois will do with the info that Clark *accidentally* shared with her.

I also think the misunderstandings are funny. The whole story is too cute! Looking forward to the next segment.

awww! thank you! You have no idea what all these comments mean to me. Seriously, it's a million times better than the best cheese-cake in the world.

I love the fact that Lois talked herself out of Clark being Superman... and every other superhero on the face of the planet. Boy, denial will get you every time, because she really doesn't want to love Clark. It was a very amusing story.  James

Thanks Lisa! Next part is up in my head, still, haven't had time to put it on "paper" yet. But it's all written up there. So it'll be posted soon. (just give me some time to get over this week's episode of Smallville and the preview for next week's - cause I'm about to die - it was soooooooo good!!!)

*chortles* Oh, Lois...
But I'm seriously looking forward to the rest of these! So she's going to prove Clark is one of those other superheroes. Anyone OTHER THAN Superman, eh? Heh. Priceless.

Hi Lara, I've just started reading your "Clark Kent is Batman ... NOT!" series and I'm having a blast. So here's totally not concise feedback of the quote-as-you-go variety: Lucy said as she was now starting to think her sister's reputation as an investigative reporter was well over done. - LOL, yeah, that's what we all think at times He'd always known that a different hairstyle and glasses wasn't exactly an impenetrable disguise, - LOL, so you're a smart boy after all Not bothering with the fact that he seemed to be working on something at the time, she grabbed him by the chin turned his head so he'd be facing her. - sorry for being so repetivite, but: LOL, I was caught by surprise here, too "Ah!" she let out, victoriously. "See, I knew it, there really isn't anything special about you."
"Wow. Thanks Lois, that's always nice to hear," he told her, in a wounded tone. He knew perfectly well what she was referring to, but that didn't make the words any less hurtful.
"No, no, I don't mean it like that Clark," she explained as she started back towards her desk. "You are special, in a way... just not that way."
"Gee, it makes so much more sense now," he said, in an acid tone. great exchange He was starting to wonder if it was even worth trying to salvage their friendship, once she found out about his other identity. She'd never see him as anything more than someone she was free to push around and God forbid she should start acting this way when he was out being Superman, else people would definitely start getting all kinds of ideas in their heads. - I like this reasoning, it's funny and actually makes some sense "Oh, dammit! Lois Lane, you are as blind as you are dense! Let me spell it out for you. Clark. Kent. Is. Batman." - LOL again Not to mention, if she actually stopped to think about it just a little bit, she would figure out who he really was. Lois really wasn't that blind! - I wouldn't be so sure ... "Yeah, I kinda thought so, really. I mean, Lucy said she'd recognized your jaw line and your chin, but seriously... she hasn't seen Batman up close and personal anymore than I have. Besides, I really can't imagine you in a spandex suit, Clark." She laughed at the thought. "Yeah, definitely not! You'd look awful in that." - Well, you don't *have* to imagine ... you've already *seen it*, for god's sakes *shakes her head and she was fairly certain that Clark had no super powers. He couldn't unscrew bottles caps on his own half the time! - or so you think ... I really like her thought process - though I was a little surprised at her conclusion: Too bad Clark wasn't Superman, she thought with a giggle. No... Lois knew for a fact that Clark wasn't Superman. After all, Clark had grown up in Kansas - she'd seen the baby pictures when they were in Smallville not very long ago. As for Superman, well, not only was he from Krypton, he hadn't even been around for very long anyhow. - I guess Tempus was right after all ... Anyways, great little story - and a fabulous title, too Eva
