Aaand the hay is all in the barn! Applause to all three of them for making it just in time!
Also, we get some steps into, well, lets call it "romantic terrain" finally made by Lois and Clark. Baby steps, that is.
Cause they are right: Lois is (and wants to remain) an investigative big city rpeorter, while Clark is (and wants to reman) a Kansas farmer. Granted, Lois finds farming fascinating and Clark has an interest in journalism...but that doesn't solve things.
Hrm, maybe they can do something like in Aussie Rules with a place share kind of deal? As in, living in SV during main Farming season, and in MEtropolis for the other half of the time? OF course, unlike in AR, Lois doesn't know about Clark's powers this time around (yet) and this Clark is incredible fearful of telling her, so that make sit harder cause that might solve some (albeit not all) of their problems.
Hrm, I'm also curious in how far the fact Jack being Lois' half-brother will influence things there.
All-in-all, I liked this story. It was not one of your best, IMO (there are some where the plot was much more captivating me/the topics were more of my interest), but that doesn't mean it wasn't a nice read. It was neat to read you again here.
I'm still a little unsure what to think about Lois warming up to the world of farming that quickly and completely - though I assume a lot of this has more to do with Clark than th eactual farming stuff, to a good extent. There were also a few somewhat repetitive elements throughout the story, or so I felt (though, I guess some of this is semi-natural given the location, cause that's kinda part of the farm life)
Anyway, I'm looking forward to when you feel ready to share Part II of this work with us. Have a good time!
