I (also) haven't watched LofR, and didn't know about the details you were talking about in the story, BUT--really, I completely enjoyed it none the less
. Like was mentioned, I was able to pull from the general context, the feel, and the relatability between Lois and Clark what you were trying to show us.
And totally agree with everyone, in a quick story--and one that I didn't have the backstory for--for you to be able to convey so much to me, and in so few words overall, and that does take a ton of talent. Really impressed!
Great job
