Enjoying this, but as in the show a sudden impact equivalent to megatons is probably not the way to do it - you end up with smaller but still dangerous pieces.

He doesn't necessarily need to slow it down - just change the course a little. The Earth is a moving target, so anything that stops the course of the asteroid intersecting the Earth would work - including speeding up the asteroid so that it crosses the Earth's orbit before the Earth gets there. And for all of those a long firm push would work better than a sudden impact.

Marcus: Superman wasn't trying to explode it but slow it down. I used the same "megatons" quote from the show because I honestly don't know better. blush (hence fuzzy science)... Hmmm. Speeding it up would expend less of Superman's energy wouldn't it? Hhhmmmm. I'll have to think about that before I complete the Archive version. laugh cool

She glanced up to find herself cuddling against her husband’s chest, only now he was dressed in a navy blue athletic jogging suit.
Bummer.

“Press conference about the Toasters’ arraignment,” he answered, removing her fingers and kissing them. “With a little wedding gift thrown in for you.”

No fair,” Lois murmured as they lifted into the air again. “It’s my honeymoon. I’m supposed to drain all of your resources.”
laugh

Quote
“Who knew I was marrying a genius?”
She married him. Isn't that proof enough? Either of 'genius' or of 'total whackjob'.

Quote
“I will always come back to you, wife.” He grinned. “Remember, magnetic?”
Does this mean he will crash-land in the suite?

Quote
“Nope. Sorry. No can do.” She shrugged, cuddling closer. “It’s who I am. It’s one of the drawbacks to being married to me. You’re just going to have to deal.”
clap /imagines Lois, the reporter, walking up to Linda, pulling her shoulder around, and planting a right hook right on her chin./

Quote
“Good luck,” Linda told him. As Superman glanced back at her to acknowledge that he had heard her, Linda grabbed his shoulders and pressed a kiss on his lips.

“What the hell!” Lois screamed, standing up on her bed, ready to throw her pillow at the TV. “Those lips don’t belong to you!”
clap

Quote
Good! He hadn’t liked it.
She tasted froggy wink

MouseRocks! Welcome back! We've missed you! I'm sooo sorry to hear about your laptop. mecry You've been busy. I'm glad you liked the beginning of NH. More to come. laugh Good, another humanities major. wink

Michael: Thank you for your funnies.

Down, Ivy! You're just happy because it means you can curse at Clark during the delivery.
You think it will take her that long to swear at Clark? You DID read GEM, right? laugh This IS Lois we're talking about here.

Quote
Aaaaand, we're done...Okay, I'll admit, I expected Clark to call it quits and go over the note in detail...
All the note said was "Can you meet Prof. Daitch at Eprad Center tonight?" Not much to discuss.

Quote
Well, I'll guess the honeymoon's over.
I guess, if this story was really about a honeymoon, there'd be "honeymoon" in the... Never mind. wink

Quote
And the shower? It says nowhere they have to stay in the bed, does it?
Nope. The suite is also furnished with a sunken tub.

Quote
They need money to buy a townhouse.
According to GEM's Epilogue they move into the Clinton St. Apt.

Quote
Clark. Clark. Clark. You've never seen Armageddon, right? Or Deep Impact? Or Meteor from the 1970s? 1980s? So, let me help you out: *Booooom!*
Hence the added line "Mom said there were no stupid questions."

Quote
Hmm...yes, far more dangerous than the asteroid.
#20 on things that might kill Superman list.

Ooh! Clark should have caught that clue. Duh!

Quote

cool

/Imagines headline on LNN Nighttimes/
Me, too, which is why it was added to the story.

Quote
/imagines Lois, the reporter, walking up to Linda, pulling her shoulder around, and planting a right hook right on her chin./
Superman isn't Lois's husband, Clark is. Of course, there are 1001 other reasons Lois might do this to Linda.

Quote
She tasted froggy
Sorry, Michael, Linda did not have froglegs for breakfast or lunch that day.
