Thanks so much for all the lovely comments! This story was the first in a long time that really felt "good" if that makes any sense. What I mean, really, is that it took no thought - as I wrote each line, I felt like I could "see" what they were going to do next. But of course,when that happens, I always worry that I wasn't seeing things correctly, and it won't seem very Lois and Clark-like to others, so I'm so glad to hear it did.
I have to say, I'm not much of a Ross and Rachel fan, so I'm not much of a fan of that episode (although in re-watching it, it was funnier than I remembered), but there's something so sweet about Ross' "She's not Rachel" line that it got my muse going. And I couldn't think of a way to steal the idea directly without ending with the same line (Clark choosing Lois over Mayson as Mayson isn't Lois or Lois choosing Clark over Dan as Dan isn't Clark). I guess I shouldn't be too surprised I can't think of a better line than professional writers.
I'm so excited that many of you liked it enough to want a sequel, but I don't see one for this. I think Elisabeth puts this nicely - this fits into the timeline of the show in my head without any changes. So, shortly after this evening of TV watching together is "Lucky Leon" and Lois and Clark go on their first date, share their first kiss, etc.
On the other hand, there are still many, many episodes of Friends left, so who knows what ideas will be sparked?
They're cute together and here, too, is hoping for a sequel
