Cute, Laura. Leading us to believe that was Clark and all...
Interesting take on Clark's views of others feelings for him, Dandello.
Oooh, BJ, I liked the one about Gretchen. It sounded (at least to me) very reminiscent of Superman being revived after his 'death' in the comics.
Nice take on Lex and Clark, Darcy! I love the sword play.
Loved your mini TOGOM, Jen. It nicely summed up Lois' feelings.
Dandello - nice imagery of the feeling of Pandora's Box while Clark lay dying in a Kryptonite cage.

Okay, it took me a while to come up with one (or actually to get it short enough), but here it is. 104 words.
The Gift
Mister Mxyzptlk hated that overdressed clown in a cape. Every time he tried to bring chaos to *his* dimension, Superman always... *always* managed to get him to say Kltpzyxm. Well, this time he had an unshakeable plan. He would present Superman with a gift in the guise of a Kryptonian artifact.
When Clark got home from work, he was wary of the thing sitting on his kitchen table. Although it was covered with Kryptonian symbols, something was wrong - it was most assuredly not from his home planet. Upon touching the box, voices of *evil* invaded his mind. Pandora’s Box would remain closed forever.
