Not 100% thrilled with the title. I was just bitten by a rabid plot bunny to write a story in which Jimmy finds out about Clark that somehow involved a ski resort. My muse is really random.
Anyway - hope you liked it!

I'd like to see a sequel with Clark telling Perry.

Why do I have the horrible feeling that Jimmy won't be able to keep the secret quiet and that he'll blab it all over town?

Cute! Though I agree with the others, I don't think Jimmy will be good at keeping a secret. Love Jimmy's reaction!

Thanks Joan! You know, I find it so much easier to write for Jimmy when I picture Justin Whalin in the role. Glad you enjoyed it! Jimmy probably WOULD be terrible at keeping the secret.

Thanks so much Michael! For the record: It's been 30°C outside while I've been reading this. And not *that* much closer to freezing inside either Yikes! It's 84 F where I am. /screams about just eloping/ It's much safer. Nudges Clark to grab onto that thought while there're no frogs in the vicinity. *shudder*

Got any ice?

Just popped over to the archive and found this fun little fic. My first thought was after you said it wasn't a typical reveal fic and that Clark was recovering from lack of sunlight and lack of sleep and overwork, I thought he was going to end up breaking a leg and then, Jimmy found out because Superman had a cast. :p But that's just my mind wandering. Wow, there was a lot to do at that ski resort: skiing, snowboarding, snowball fights, ice-skating, and snowmobiling. THIS was a relaxing weekend? With global warming and all, they were lucky to have snow. Oh, wait, this was back in 1996 before global warming. I'm surprised Jimmy didn't make a comment about them NOT sharing a room, being that I'm sure they weren't making it common knowledge that they were waiting for the honeymoon. Most people assume now-a-days that couples sleep together before marriage (at least in my circle of friends). Of course, they DID sleep together on this trip. So, Clark falls down the mountain, over rocks and hits a tree and he thinks he needs to reveal all to Jimmy? I also just read your re-write of Home is Where the Hurt is-- another great little reveal fic BTW -- and I wonder, DC, do you not like that Clark keeps his secret identity secret? I would think that Lois would hate that Clark is making such a huge decision so quickly (on both stories), when he took FOREVER getting around to tell her. Just a thought.

Firstly, glad you found this fun! True, there is a lot to do at the resort, but it's more relaxing than saving the world! Actually, I like Clark keeping his secret. But reveal fics are just sooooooo much fun to write. As for "A Doctor's Oath," it just bothers me how utterly oblivious the Lanes are in the episode. True, I could have written in a good comment or two from Jimmy. But then Lois probably would have killed him. Thanks for reading!
