Vickie,
When I got to the end if I hadn't been around a number of people I would have laughed out loud. Did you put that disclaimer at the end before or after our last conversation?
Wonderful story! Maybe there is another one out there that Gabrielle could whisper in your ear from the Elysian fields.

The funny Xena disclaimers have always been something that I have enjoyed, and have always tried to incorporate into Xena fan fics. Glad it made you laugh. I'll let my muse know that she should be open to further crossover adventures. But she's a little backlogged on a few other non-crossover ideas at the moment.

Good job! Really sweet way to wrap up the story- I like Clark's reaction and Lois' reassurances. Great (and bittersweet) way to end this story! And loved the disclaimer! I will honor my gold, lead-sled buick with a brief moment of silence... before I take a sledgehammer to it!

If it helps, they’re just like spoiled rich humans. Only with super-powers. I mean, making my son Cupid the icon of Valentine's Day? Well, it would have been *awkward* having a semi-nude buxom blonde plastered all over town during Valentine’s Day season. "And all of that supposed incest going on up on Olympus," Ares complained. "The myths make us look so depraved." Yeah, well, excessive money might be fun, but a steady relationship for Lucy and Jimmy will give them peace and quiet for life. . He recognized her as Anna, one of Perry's newest interns at the Planet. Huh. That’s suspicious. "Maybe...maybe it's time..."
"Time to what, Clark? Hang up the cape? Stop helping people?" /shakes head/ Oh Clark… And you're going to stop worrying about this one lunatic who needed a god to tell her who you really are. Okay?" Michael

Only with super-powers. *wonders who has the more atrocious behavior, the super-rich humans or the gods* Well, it would have been *awkward* having a semi-nude buxom blonde plastered all over town during Valentine’s Day season. Might have made men get more into the holiday though. Oooooh! What if he’s now possessed Lois? Ooooh! Evil thoughts! It just started to get old over the past decade? One day Lois woke up and found out that her reserve of panic was running on empty and she was too lazy to get it refilled. /imagines Ares sitting around, plucking the wings off of butterflies/ *almost spews tea all over the computer screen* Better not get used to it. The very next night, the house was in shambles as the kids paid them back in double. Or, she’s just Lois’s daughter? Which is why she'll probably be flying at the age of ten. Overachiever! Well, they first got to go on a road trip, *and* had an adventure afterwards, too. *imagines Lois hijacking a time machine to become Lois Lane: Fugitive.* Yeah, well, excessive money might be fun, but a steady relationship for Lucy and Jimmy will give them peace and quiet for life. Death of the Interruptus? Nah. Thank’s for the wonderful fun, DC! You're very welcome! Thanks for taking this little trip with me!

I should have gone with ladybugs. Or...Principal then dials CPS. Death of the Interruptus? Oooooh! Got an idea! They could then drop in on Lucy and Jimmy announced, asking them to baby sit. Michael

/imagines guys buying chocolate boxes with said half-naked god on front for their girlfriend./ Butterflies definitely win. Oooooh! Got an idea! They could then drop in on Lucy and Jimmy announced, asking them to baby sit. Oooh! The mantle gets passed. Scene: Jimmy and Lucy are making out on the couch. Things are getting hot and heavy. There's a knock at the door. Jimmy fixes his shirt and answers the door. There stand Lois and Clark with the kids in tow. Clark: "Hey Jimmy! We have to cover a story in New York. We'll be back for the kids on Sunday. Thanks, man!" Jimmy: (groaning) "Oh come on! I never did this to you guys!"

Excellent wrap-up. I like how you took the time to address things instead of just rushing the conclusion.
Amazing Lois and Clark moments, as well as moments of them with their kids. Very nicely done.
Great story! Thanks for sharing!

Great story! Thanks for sharing! Thanks, AntiK! The ending was the least easy part to write, mostly because I was having so much fun writing the interactions between the Greeks and the Kents, especially Clark and Herc, as I've previously stated. Glad that you enjoyed the story! And thanks for reading!
