Clark when he’s in a panic over Lois’ safety has never acted in a rational manner and it wasn’t only his students that noticed his absentmindedness even Perry and Jimmy who don’t know him that well can tell he wasn’t acting rationally. Clark ought to remember that he really needs to protect his secret and this is not the way that he should reveal it to Lois let alone the world.
Loving the A-Plot that you have come up with, looking forward to the next part!
