The other one I'd suggest he read would be Pam's "Hearts Divided". It's not exactly what he outlines, but it does involve Clark as a NK leader meeting up with Lois on Earth. Clark's not the one doing the conquering <g> but it's an outstanding story and definitely a different take on L&C's orgins. And Clark was pretty confident in it, if I remember correctly ... could be just the characterization he's looking for.
Not that you should be his personal mail service, Lab <g> but maybe you could forward this along if you write him again.
