Oh oh. I remember this from spoilers and that is was breathtakingly wonderfully written and heartstoppingly angsty. But I think I'm going to wait till it's done and you've posted it all before reading, Sara - I don't think my heart can take it if you drop out midway! <G> LabRat

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!! Sara! Get back here and fix this right away! I mean... you can't leave us hanging here!  Get Clark right over to save her! Poor Lois!  Even a splat possibility. This has great potential. But you really have to give us more, Sara!  Saskia

Yup, you're As I told you already, Sara, I love this. It's so angsty and poignant, it brought a lump to my throat while beta-reading. Poor Lois! I can certainly see that she believes that she's lost the most important thing in her whole life - and that she feels terrible guilt too. After all, he died for her. Just hurry up and get back here and make it better!!  Wendy

Not that I don't appreciate cliffhangers (and this one was an excellent one, as well as the rest of the story) but... how about more?? AnnaBtG.

Ohmigod. That's how I started out my comments post to the latest installment of Lynn's story late last night. I certainly never dreamed that I would be writing it again in the very next comments folder that I opened!  Sara, I'm not sure if I can take this. Two incredibly angsty stories on the boards at once (and I really love angst, too...) This might be too much for me. But unlike LabRat, I don't have the patience to wait until it's all finished before reading it. I can wait between installments if need be (barely) - but *please* do finish it eventually. Whatever you need to keep your Muse happy, let us know. I feel silly begging like this already, but I have a feeling that this is going to be one of those stories. And it is just starting out incredibly. The repetition - and the way it changes slightly - is very effective in showing us Lois' despair and utter sense of loss, as are the short, fragmented sentences, almost as though Lois is having trouble putting coherent thoughts together. ![[Linked Image]](http://images.bravenet.com/brpics/smilie/brokenheart.gif) That word has been echoing hollowly through my head for days, for weeks now. And just where is Clark? Off feeling sorry for himself? Not that I'm happy about that, but it better not be any physical incapacity, otherwise he won't be able to get there in time and we'll have Saskia's splat ![[Linked Image]](http://images.bravenet.com/brpics/smilie/splat.gif) ...and I know that's not going to happen. Of course, once he does rescue her, she won't be happy with him at all. On the other hand, maybe she's having a nightmare... Whenever you can - hopefully soonest - we're ready for more! Kathy

Lois: Can I go?
Clark: No.
Lois: Oh come on, Clark, why do we go through this? We both know I’m going to go.
Clark: Then why do you ask?
Lois: I’m trying to be nice.

 Wow, guys! Thank you all! Those anguished screams did me very nicely Well, I must admit that a mixture of a hectic RL and a Re to all those who seemed to be worried that this wouldnt be finished - don't be! I have every intention of finishing this... in fact, I have some semblance of an idea about where it's going <g>. I think it's just mostly laziness combined with a small amount of everything else that has been keeping me from writing Hopefully I'll be posting P2 tomorrow or Friday, but I'm not promising anything...
