How long before Lois makes an appearance? (This is a Lois AND Clark board, after all.) Not that this tale hasn't been fascinating so far. I love how Jonathan and Martha seem to pop into Clark's mind whenever he has an issue with a moral center. It speaks well of all three of them. And I really liked his interactions with the mysterious Bruce in both the previous chapter and this one. And I wonder if Bruce has (or used to have) any super-hero aspirations.

Hey, blow up your posting schedule and let us have them one chapter a day! You'd have some very thankful readers out here in the ether.

Hi, Terry!

For this fic, I'm making Clark 17 here and Bruce in his early 30s. I usually like to view then as similar/close in age but though an older Bruce could make life very interesting for this story. You'll see why, soon. Either way, I'm glad you like the little twist. smile

It will be a while before Lois appears in this story trilogy. That is to say...she's not in this one. At all. Next one, which I am working on every chance I get!

You'll be seeing quite a bit more of Bruce in this one, I promise. And your questions about him will be answered! smile

Thanks for reading and commenting!
