Well, my muse went a bit ballistic with the Investigate Series, which included Beckoning, Horizons, and Flare. Below are the tidbits I had the most fun writing for each:

Beckoning--- I admittedly thrive off of fight and rescue scenes, but for this fic my favorite scenes involved the paratroopers' when they
went in to rescue Superman from the abandoned Paint factory
and
saved Superman's life after he had stopped Ta'peel.
However, expanding on Kal's aura was a close second, especially in regard to how it affected his relationship with Lois.

Horizons--- I had been dying to write a fix-it for TOGOM for a LONG TIME, and this fic finally gave me an opportunity to do exactly what I had wanted. It also gave an an opportunity to do another fix-it that helped our favorite
AltClark have what we all wanted him to have in the show
. I'll also say that this fic had the most intense kissing scene I think I've ever written (writing romance is extremely hard for me so this stretched me a bit there).

Flare--- Admittedly, Flare had been in the back of my mind for well over a year, but I had to wait until I had written the two Acts before it simply because it was the resolution to
Kal's partial blindness
. I wanted to make it a big deal, and I feel like I accomplished what I wanted, though looking back I think I might have been better off splitting this Act into two separate fics due to the different feel of the second half, but oh well. The second half was admittedly more for fun than anything else.

Anchored--- I like 'what-if' scenarios and find supernatural plots intriguing, so being able to do both at once had been fun. I also love being able to give Lois a problem she is determined to solve, especially when it involves the man she believes is two....

Paper Cut--- I think this is my favorite fic I wrote this year, though it's probably because I'm a sucker for revelations where
Lois figures it out without blowing up
and situations where Lois
has to help an injured Superman
. Madam Ex is also one of my favorite episodes....
