5. Single White Kryptonian by Shayne T. The blurb for this story on the archive is, "In a world without Lana, Alt-Clark's history is different. He meets the woman of his dreams through a personal ad, never dreaming that he and Lois Lane will soon be partners. Their first case takes him to the last place that he wants to be -- a Smallville that holds the secrets to his past, secrets that he has been running from for ten years."

Given the title, one might think that this is a light, B-plot type story, and there is definitely a lot of WAFF in it, but there is also quite a bit of A-plot action and serious drama as well.
I give this story a thumbsup .
