OK, I'm home. I'll try not to be too much of an echo of what has already been said.
As I said earlier--this was very good.
The problem wouldn’t have been finding a good meal. It would have been avoiding being one.
This is such a great line.
If monsters were real, why hadn’t she ever heard about them in her own town? Did they only exist in Sunnydale, or were they like cockroaches?
Did every city have its own monsters, hidden away where the average person couldn’t find them?
Life would have been easier if she’d never started that gunrunning story, if she’d never heard of Sunnydale.
This introspection is wonderful. Mosters are everywhere, unfortunately, not all of them are as un-himan as vampires--some are just people who are Plain Old Evil--for example: Lex. I wonder if he is in league with any of them in Metropolis. . . might explain a few things.
Lois glanced over at Clark, who had spent the entire interview silently staring at the wall with his glasses pulled down to the bridge of his nose.
He really needs to be more careful.
I guess he really hasn't had that much practice around truely observent people up to this point.
From the darkness, a deep, accented voice spoke.
“Are you here to kill me then, killer of men?”
I really don't know much about these guys--but I'm guessing they have some sort of 6th sense that allows them to ID otherworldly types. He certianly seems to recongnize something about Lois and her past.
“Come to finish off the work of the Beast?” the voice continued, this time closer. “Brought your own creature and the monster inside.”
Not only does he recognize Lois, but Clark as well. Very Interesting.
BTW--are we going to get to see the Blue suit in this story???
--Just wondering
