Well done, Corrina. What you have here is fondly known as a page turner. We just can't wait to find out what happens next.
Lois's trauma is unfortunate for her, but it brings a much-needed symmetry to the L&C relationship--they are there for each other, rescuing each other, helping each other through their dark nights of the soul, etc. In the long run this will keep Clark from feeling somehow inferior to Lois or dependent on her in a one-sided way. It's sort of the mirror image of the realization that cannon Lois has rescued Superman as well as vice-versa. It makes them equals in a way that wouldn't be possible if one of them was doing all the rescuing.
Looking forward to seeing the Dan/Lois/Clark scene.
