Mouserocks, thanks for your comments. I have not written a follow-up to the story yet. I intended it to be a stand-alone. At the other site I have received a number of PM's asking for "the rest of the story". I have it all in place in my mind and may do the "sequel". Not sure yet.

Weird thing, this is my 4th fic and I guess I like writing dark fics even more than reading them - LOL! All have been tradgedies. devilsplat

I am a tease at heart too - all 4 fics leave a lot of open questions for the reader to fill in. laugh

As to Lois and Lex - I'll add that Lois sheds a number of tears at Lex's funeral.
