Exemplary, Toc! I am loving this story, although my RL has been chaos lately and I have had zero time on the boards or working on my story either.
I really feel for Lois...you write her so poignantly here. I can't wait to see Clark enter the picture so she won't have to fight those dragons all alone!

Great job! Post more soon!
