For some reason I was thinking about this short fic this morning and decided to come in and reread it. I hadn't noticed the "irredeemably evil" note at the beginning before, and that put a different spin on the ending for me. I'm sure after all these years the plot bunny is long gone, but I do wonder what could have come next, and what kind of future you envisaged for Clark in his post-Ubermann years.
