This story was emotionally intense! I couldn’t stop reading. I stayed up until 2am to finish it. The Prankster gutted Lois. It was hard seeing that happen to her.

I love that Lois called for Clark at the end. She wanted him more than Superman and made it clear that she didn’t want to talk about Superman. Clark finally just saying that he was Superman was a fun reveal. He didn’t really have a choice if he wanted her to know. The emotions and love at the end were so sweet. It helped to balance out the angst.

The ending in Smallville was lovely. I’m glad Clark gave Christmas back to Lois. Thanks for a great story!
