Sounds like he is…building up to his wedding night? Concubines really would help in this case.  /points towards page 3 of the room service menu. The royal palace offers an assortment of hair colors and cup-sizes./ /imagines Lois thinking that the little princling didn’t even care to straighten out for their wedding day/  Sorry, I don't get the reference. But umm...poor Kal? Considering what’s going to happen later, that’s his first big mistake. He’s showing her that he’s not above her. That he is not set out to dominate her. Yes, that’s going to go well in a patriarchal marriage culture. <tacks a "Please verbally abuse me" sign on Kal's back> I’ll have to give him that. And that’s without knowing that she likes to be on top. Hehehehe! (I think I ran out of graemlins) Oooooh! She likes adventures. Good thing too...since this marriage will be one. So, she wearing her great-grandmother’s burlap-sack nighty underneath? LOL! Or....nothing. See? Should have gone with the black lace number instead of the burlap. That one *does* have a proven track record. “You see. I meant ‘beautiful’ as in aesthetically pleasing, not sexually attractive. I much prefer the services of the male care givers we employ.” <checks room service menu> Huh. Look at that. Something for everyone here. That’s his second mistake. Now she knows that she can act out the way she wants to Open the flood gates! Take cover!!!! I did not see that reaction coming. That’s just. Why. How. He already said he doesn’t want to… And she didn’t seem like he’d have to struggle much, like Nor-Uthor had to with his step-mother. So, why… how… what now? Oh, did they schedule the wedding for the worst time inside a four week time window?
/whispers ‘think’ not ‘thing’/ Ha! Well, that would solve "blood on the sheet" issues...if anyone cared. Yes, but working as a commoner she’d also be doing the prince. So, the only difference is that she’s got a bigger expense account this way Her very own Kryptonian Express card? So, are we going to get Lois’s POV next? Or will we see her again when she pours cold water over his face? Soon...but not yet. But it's coming. Oh, and is it Thursday already? And no, those black SUVs are not following you. Oh, good. Because three of them followed me to the gym today and twelve goons made a show of bench pressing twice their weight right in front of me today... <locks door just in case>

Lovely part! I'm a little behind on reading it, but it certainly was splendid! Thanks so much Mrs. L! Yes, she *should* be glad. But...she's Lois.

I love that movie! Haven't seen it in ages! /rummages through DVD drawer and pumps fist/ Yes! Best rom-com EVER.  Goody! Kallie throws the best tea parties... and something suddenly clicks in Lois' mind about just why their wedding night went so wrong... And yes, Lois *will* wonder if that's the case... Oooh! I'm going to get on that! Special Lois and Clark score sheets, here I come! (Seriously. I'm gonna do that. ) Best of luck with that!

Well, that was... interesting. Yeah, he made some mistakes, but, um, Lois was less Mad Dog than well, Female Dog, there at the end, if you see what I mean... I suppose she's got her reasons but it did seem to come out of nowhere. I mean, he's not trying to buy her with that present; he already owns her. So anything he does nice is strictly voluntary just 'cause he's nice.
I'll assume she's been even more stressed than he was, and has been brainwashed to think all men are scum, but still... I'm looking forward to getting in her head and maybe then this'll make more sense to me.
Of course, even if she does realize she blew her top and totally over-reacted, that will only make things worse, at least for a while... 'cause she's totally not going to admit to that and apologize.
So how on earth will you allow her to warm up to him??

I am frankly intimidated by the detailed FDK that some of the commentors leave.  Virginia and Michael, Lara and Mouse. I feel so inadequate.  I guess the bottom line is - Poor Kal he doesn't have the vaguest notion on how to handle women and one particular woman espacially. He needs to learn, and quickly or they will both be miserable.

PJ Oh, I have my evil little ways. But you are right. Even if Lois realizes how mean and unfair she's being...well...she's not likely to apologize any time soon.

Sorry, I don't get the reference. Lucretia Borgia. (from memory) Got married as soon as biologically sensible, to secure some alliance or other for her father, Pope Alexander 6th. Later, it was deemed better to secure a different alliance and since she swore her husband was never able to follow through with his marital duties, the Pope was conveniently able to annul the marriage. This allowed her father to arrange for a different political union. Ahhh, wasn't the Renaissance a great time to live? Hehehehe! (I think I ran out of graemlins) I know the feeling. Michael

Sure don't remember this being covered in my history classes though. Okay, then. Kal likes his boys, then. Which is fine. To each their own.  Hmmm...why are there five black SUVs all parked in front of my house and why are all of the oocupants staring at me through binoculars?

In reference to the black SUVs following someone: Oh, good. Because three of them followed me to the gym today and twelve goons made a show of bench pressing twice their weight right in front of me today...
<locks door just in case> I don't think locking the door would help. And why hasn't anyone commented on Kal's most obvious super-power? He told his cat Fasa what to do and Fasa did it! Got to be super.

Lol, I guess this version of Kal doesn't have a super dog, but a super cat! (Does Fasa happen to wear a red cape with the House of El crest on it?) ![[Linked Image]](http://www.tierarztblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/06/Supercat.jpg) YES!

Does this also mean we might be getting our next fix in a little over 8 hours? Which, coincidentally, would also mean, I'll have something fun to wake up to. Just like Clark, come to think of it...
