I have to say I loved this story. My favorite part is it works 100% as fitting in canon. Nothing that happens here violates later canon.
I do have to agree that after "Whine, Whine, WHine" Clark's claim in "We Have a Lot to Talk About" that he needed to know if Lois loved him or Superman just does not work. It works here, but when she clearly rejects Superman and chooses Clark in "Whine, Whine, Whine", he really has no reason to not tell her CK=SM, and his excuse just does not hold water.
Thanks, John. I do agree with much of what you said. My only quibble that would make me side with Clark is that he and Lois had barely dated before he asked her to marry him. So, would she *really* have said yes to him as Clark, or to him because she knew he was also Superman, if he had told her prior to his proposal. Still, I do side mostly with "Clark did it the lunkheaded way."
