I just read this story and really enjoyed it--it was very funny up until the end where Lois started talking to MJ and then it became more serious. I absolutely loved the line where Lois said she wanted Clark to get acclaim instead of derision; it shows how far her own character has grown, and echoed one of my own personal wishes. Very well done (though I admit that I have only watched the Spider-man movies and Lois & Clark, so I'm not the best judge of the other characters). I also really liked the point that Lois brought up about how it's hard for the superheroes to reveal their secret identities--it shows a great deal more of perception in Lois than she had in the first and some of the second season. Thanks a lot.
