Lois didn’t believe anything she didn’t see with her own two eyes. The only problem was, she’d seen this with her own eyes, and she knew it for what it was- the story of the century.

And there wasn't any way she was sharing a Pulitzer with a greenhorn like Kent.
OOOOOOOH! jump jump Mad Dog Lane is on the story now. . . watch out everyone You are about to be front page news. . .or the guys from the paper factory will be trying to drag HER off. . .

Great series of stories. Please keep them coming!

Yatta! Yay for Hiro! Yes, he's one of my favorite characters. :-D

I'm really enjoying these hero stories.

Clark frowned, and said something unintelligible to the man. The man replied with a torrent of words, none of which Lois recognized.

“What’s he saying?” Lois asked. “I don’t speak Chinese.”

“It’s Japanese,” Clark said. “He’s saying that he just discovered how to bend time and space.”
First, since I live in Northern California and have a bunch of Asian American friends, I find it funny that Lois can't tell the difference between Chinese and Japanese. Typical, I guess, but funny.

Second, I'm constantly amazed at how Lois can overlook how Clark does the most unusual things, and I'm not talking super stunts. How many guys from mid-western USA are so fluent in another language that they can understand it when someone says they just "discovered how to bend time and space". laugh

Keep up the good work,
BJ

“It explains why Ralph was actually at the office after closing time.” Lois thought for a moment, then shuddered. “You know, I’ve used that terminal a time or two.”

Reflexively she wiped her hands on the back of Clark’s jacket. He glanced back at her.
LOL. So ew, but so funny!

Glancing back, Lois noted that the young man was staring up at the skyscrapers and grinning.

In a strnage, insane way, it was nice. It had been a long time since Lois had seen anyone take that much joy in anything. Life in Metropolis was all about the destination. The journey was something to be endured.

“It must be fun to be Don Quixote,” she murmured.

“Tilting at windmills, Lois?” Clark grinned at her for a moment. “Isn’t that what we do?”
Aaaah! Love the visual of her looking at him as he goes gaga over the skyscrapers. Tokyo has it's share of impressive buildings, but since it gets earthquakes, they are nowhere near the size of the ones in New York. I also have a fond spot in my heart for Don Quixote and I like how you use it here. Yum.

I pop in and out, because I'm not super keen on Heroes, but seeing the characters from the POV of our intrepid reporters makes it interesting.

Nice, Shayne. Lois is on the story!

Okay, I don’t know a lot about all the characters on Heroes, but I do know that Hiro is Japanese.
But then you say:

“It’s Japanese,”
Huh?


Did you know that the actor who plays Hiro actually does the translations himself?

Thanks for the responses!

Classicalla, *I* know he's Japanese. "You* know he's Japanese. Even Clark knows he's Japanese.

Lois think's he's Chinese...and since this segment is written from her point of view...

Didn't know the actor who plays Hiro does the translations. Interesting...

I wonder who I should feature next?

So, in this universe, Metropolis doesn't explode within the next day or so???

I think that is what happened after Hiro arrived in NY the first time.

Gotcha. I guess I wasn't playing close enough attention.

Yes, I heard him say this on Jay Leno. He also has an IQ of circa 180. I don't know if he also does the translations for the other Japanese actor, too. Would be interesting if he does.
