Lois & Clark Forums Forums Fan Fiction Lois & Clark Fanfic FDK: Anything for You (1/1)

Hello all,

I had been kicking this story around in my head for several months, but hadn't had the free time to do anything with it. Now that I finally have a few days off, I decided to write it up and post it.

No beta readers were harmed during the making of this story.

As always, all comments welcomed.

Joy,
Lynn

I like it already!

Hee hee. Love the wording here. That look must really be somethig!

Great ending! What a fun story.

I'm glad that these Super fans needed that extra push to turn them to a life a crime. Was Penny Barnes was of the SFC suspects/victims?

I love how Lex, et al, figured out how to work under Superman's radar.

So, in this alt-dimension where Lois was never into Lex (or vice versa) did Lois and Clark date sooner, or were they curled up together watching TV as friends? Clearly, he still hasn't informed her of his other persona, yet. Why did SM only hear the alarms from the places the college students broke in, but not those across town? Were they closer? Did they have better security? Did he have the security disabled where the 'real' robbery was taking place?

Sorry about the influx of questions. I'm currently working on little sleep and lots of chocolate.

So, is Lois denying that she was already ready to throw herself into Clark's arms when exposed to Revenge? Pity. Although, I must say, this does sound a bit like Lois protesting too much that it was VERY different.

I would say that this is a great example of Super Fans causing super headaches for Superman! (yikes! My apologies for that sentence.) Maybe you'll be willing to bring back a sequel come August.

Hello Ultra Lucille and Virginia,

Thanks for taking the time to read my story and leave feedback on such a busy day.

UL, You picked out some of my favourite lines in the story. Thank you.

And although I wrote the ending for L&C, part of me was seeing George Reeves giving a fourth-wall-breaking wink to the camera.

Virginia wrote:
Lois and Clark were just friends at this point. Clark hadn't heard the other alarms because they were too far away. Lex made a point of having the real robberies be far across town from the diversions. Ironically, once Clark realized that, it made it easier for him to catch the real robbers, since he could narrow the scope of his patrol quite a bit.

Oops... I meant for Jimmy to have said that line, but when I went back just now to re-read what I had written, I can see how it would look as though Lois were speaking. I just prefaced the quoted sentences with "Jimmy disagreed" in the story to make it clearer. Thanks for catching that.

I've a feeling this story will remain a one-shot, but who knows what else my muse will dream up? Even if she gives me some more ideas, I probably wouldn't be able to write them up (unless they were for truly super-short stories) before the summer. I'll let her mull on the challenge and Bizarro challenge topics.(My thanks to you and Queen of the Capes for coming up with them.)

So out of curiosity: My story clearly fits with the title of the August challenge, but I'm blind with regard to what the specifics of that challenge will be; does it fit in with the details of the challenge, as well?

Joy,

Queenie and I decided our 2014 Challenges would be vaguer and more broad than some of my challenges for 2013 to open up people's creative juices. We have come up with 3 rules for each challenge, and this story (I double checked) is missing at least one of the criteria. But still a fun foray into the land of fandumb... er... um... fandom. (The Rules for each Challenge will be posted a month before that month's challenge.) But definitely worth an honorable mention.

Ah, well. At the risk of sounding like some of my students, do I get bonus points for an early submission?

And I guess considering that I didn't know the rules, having a possible two out of three isn't bad. Thanks for checking.

That's exactly what I was picturing when I read that last line. I always liked those wink-at-the-camera endings.

Cool. Mission accomplished with the ending, then.

Same here. It was a silly, very Silver-Age-y thing to do, but it was just plain fun.

Thanks for leaving feedback, Mrs. Mxy.

Hi Lynn!

So…what did he do?

Michael

Right back atcha.

I always enjoy seeing your humorous take on stories. You missed a line that I had been sure you'd comment on:

I had been expecting an innuendo-laden response to that one. Had that one been too easy?

Joy,
Lynn

Everybody else just said everything I was going to say, so I'll just end with "fun story!"

Thanks, Io.

Hi Lynn!
I took the skin too literally, in terms of figure or speech, nixing the chance for innuendo

Michael

What a diabolical plan! Evil as Luthor is, he does, unfortunately, know how to get under Clark/Superman's skin -- and having his...uh...groupies, shall we say...distract him is the perfect solution! Very glad Luthor didn't think of this on the show!

My favorite line was the last -- the comment Clark made just to get under Lois's skin, and the way he tried not to give himself away with his smile. So perfect, and I imagine very hard to do at times!

Hi Anti-K,

Welcome back! Thanks for leaving feedback. I'm honoured that one of my stories was among the first that you commented on upon your return from your hiatus.

I'm glad you liked the story.
