Hi FoLCs,

A number of different pieces of fanfic I've read mentioned one or both of the following:

1) Clark sleep-floats more when he is under stress.
2) Clark started wearing his glasses as "trainers" to help him remember not to use his superpowers in public. (The lenses possibly even being made of leaded glass.)

I don't recall either of those concepts being in the show; so I was wondering whether they were there and I just don't remember or whether they started outside the show, either from another incarnation of the Superman mythos or from some fanfic. I like both ideas, and I think #2 is especially clever, explaining as it does both the fact that Clark wore glasses pre-Superman and that he needed to lower them to use his X-ray vision.

Does anyone know where the two ideas originated? If they are from fanfic, I would be interested in reading their stories of origin.

Thanks,
Lynn
