I can't tell you how glad I am that Alt-Clark didn't cave and settle for a relationship with Lois with him as Superman. With his insecurity, that was a viable option. But you also showed us that he was all too aware of the problems Lois might have if she were labeled as Superman's girlfriend.
I love Lois realizing this Clark is different than her original Clark:
“This feels all wrong, like you aren’t you,” she murmured before shooting her eyes to his. “Who are you?”
I keep thinking she might figure out Clark = Superman sooner, since this Clark lets more stuff slip.
I'm going on vacation too. Have a great one and looking forward to more when you return.
