When I read the title of your story, my first thought was that the narrator would be Star. While I would love to have that story told, I am delight by your story with the ASU psychic.

Well, if Jor-El had the technology to send a child to Earth, and sufficient knowledge of the planet, it had to have come from somewhere. Why not earlier explorers? (Even if those explorers did have the mores of Bill Clinton.)

Star would be an interesting character to write about. The idea for this story, though, came from a re-watching of ASU. I didn't even known the psychic's name until I looked at the text of the script (Mystique).

"Oh, you can’t help that," said the Cat: "we’re all mad here. I’m mad. You’re mad."
"How do you know I’m mad?" said Alice.
"You must be," said the Cat, "or you wouldn’t have come here.”
