Nice chapter, ladies! I feel so bad for both of them, but most especially Lois. Clark is being a lunkhead, so that takes away some of my sympathy for him.
This chapter made me think of a Martha Kent quote in
a SR fanfic that I love:
“You think no one else has the right to carry any burdens. But in this world everyone still has to. I do, and she [Lois] does. You try to carry them all, and you’ll fall out of the sky. And all you accomplished was denying folks their right to a say in which burdens they bear.”
