blush Thank you all for your lovely comments! You really made my day with your feedback!

I'm so glad you all liked the 'battricide' line. Once again, that was one of the original thoughts that just flowed when I was getting my rough ideas down, and I built the scene around it.

Phil, thanks again for your story and the lines which inspired this. I'm glad you like what I came up with.

I'm glad, too, that you all feel I've managed to keep Lois and Clark in character. That was my goal - to explore the "what if" of Lois testing out her belief, but in a way that kept both of them "our" Lois and Clark.

The song... well, whenever my husband is waiting for something, like our girls to get their socks and shoes on, or something, he starts to whistle that song. It drives me nuts because it stays in my head.

Now, however, I'm thinking of "Henry the Eighth" for some reason. goofy

Thank you all again for the lovely feedback!
