Please feed the muse! Kent children names curtesy of names that I like for future children that my husband does not want to use. So if my future children can't have these names, I can at least give them to Lois and Clark's offspring! As always, I love you for reading and reviewing.

I don't know anything about "Xena" but I did like "Clarkus Maximus". So... "Kevin Sorbo" in this fic is really Hercules using the identity of "Kevin Sorbo"? And the interdimensional walls are thin?
Looking forward to more!

Looking forward to more! Thanks, IO! Yes, "Kevin Sorbo" is just Hercules' alias. In two episodes of Hercules, they had modern day ones where the regular stars played the cast and crew of the show - with Kevin actually being Herc - he just never died. I get into a little bit of an explanation in the next chapter or two - and also the discrepancy between "Clarkus" where they are believed to be in a different universe, and this story. Thanks for reading!

OOH!!! YAY! THE SEQUEL!!! ^I felt caps were needed :p At first glance, I was curious. Didn't quite know what it was at first, so I brushed it off (  sorry) But then I opened it and went

Wow! That's quite the reception for this story! Glad that you got to read it and that it apparently made you happy. Hope you get your laptop back soon! (I feel lost whenever I am without mine so I know how it feels.)

Especially since moving to the middle of nowhere... its my only lifeline.

Oooooh! Squeequel! "Out of my way!"
"I'm gonna run you off the road!"
"Oh yeah? I'd like to see you try!" Huh, what's going on? The driver of the black muscle car swerved into oncoming traffic, trying to cut around the red sports car. Ares and Hercules? Smoke poured from the damaged engine and the car exploded.  Movie effects? "Well, that had to hurt."
"Thanks for the help, but you're next!"
"Oh yeah? Give me your best shot!" What *is* going on? A double-decker bus smashed violently into the front of the black muscle car, destroying the vehicle instantaneously.  Michael

Exactly what I was going for.   Probably. They've got that Lane competive streak. </font><blockquote><font size="1" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">quote:</font><hr /><font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif"> So, no Hercules TV show in this 'verse? And how will Xena and Gabrielle come into play, dimension-wise? Oh, there was. Hmm... something smells like a reveal or two in this story... <guards her hard drive protectively> quote: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- And each child knew that they were in the deepest of troubles if either one of their parents used that name to call them. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Every kid knows that the full first, middle, and last name thing means that they are in deep doo-doo. They went with a real dragon instead of CGI? Why not a mix of both? Huh. Sounds like Tempus. Or Mxyspltk. <shiffty eyes> Oh, good. A god. Let's say... Ares?  More to come! (although Chapter 2 is available) Thanks for reading, Darthy!

Lois is quite the culinary project. /wonders if Lois noticed the times Clark gave up and started distracting her away from the kitchen with headlines and bed-linens. <guards her hard drive protectively> Michael

Very late to this, but better late than never, as they say. Great intro! Of course, I knew something bad was going to happen the instant Clark thought how happy and perfect his life was. That just never goes over well in fiction! I love the banter between Lois and Clark--glad to see that so many years of marriage hasn't changed that. And though kids present can change the whole dynamic, I'm impressed by how much you kept of their in-show characters. Now I have to go read the rest!

Now I have to go read the rest! Thanks so much, Anti-K! I figured, Lois and Clark have never let anything change the way they relate to each other, so why would kids change that for them? And, I figured, it would play into the whole family dynamic - Clark teasing his boys and everything. No, things can never be happy and perfect in fiction. That would be boring.
