I like this, too, for the most part. I'm a little miffed that Clark has 'experimented' with sex. Makes him seem a little bit colder than we're used to, but you did say that this isn't 'our' Clark and this is, after all, your story, so those are your decisions to make.

I like the way the date is going, too, but Wendy, what the heck is 'wrongfooting?' I've never heard that expression before.
