From quotes:
1 Nope
2 Not a clue
3 The Many Under the Suit, by Happy Girl
4 That sounds like a story Lois and Clark and the IRS by Carol M, but that wasn't written this past year, so... ???
5 Aussie Rules by Female Hawk
6 I'm not doing so well this quiz.
7 Claimed in the Congo, by MozartMaid
8 The Time Traveler's Wife, by M. L. Thompson
9 I oughta know this one. "Kal" should be a dead giveaway.
10 *sigh*

From excerpts (only changed answers listed here)
1 Now this sounds like The Many Under the Suit by Happy Girl
2 I definitely have not read this story; so I'll take a wild guess among the few stories I haven't read yet. Is it The Wild Goose Chase by Michael?
3 This one no longer sounds like The Man Under the Suit, but I'm not sure which one it is???
4 Another one I haven't read. But it sounds like fun, and I do want to read it. And since The Wild Goose Chase by Michael has a fun-sounding name, I'll guess that story here, too.
6 The Boy in Black, by anonpip
9 This one sounds sooooo familiar. I'm going to kick myself when I read the answer. Is it The Smallville Connection, by Dandello?
10 I know I read this one, but...

Well, third place was fun while it lasted.

Thanks for the quiz, Michael.

Joy,
Lynn

I still giggle every time I see my .5 points tacked on to my score. Let's see if I can at least round up to the next whole digit.

1. The excerpt sounds like HG's "Man Under the Suit", but I don't recognize the quote. Still -- that's my final answer.
2. Oh, dear. Not familiar at all. I must have missed this story.
3. Ha! "My Inspiration" by SQD (From the excerpt)
4. From the quote, even. Carol's "Backwards III: House of Lane"
5. "Aussie Rules" by Female Hawk (The quote made me ???, but I recognized the excerpt).
6. Erm... "Boy in Black" by Anonpip?
7. Ack! An Alt-Clark story that I've forgotten?! For shame!
8. From the quote -- MLT's "Time Traveler's Wife"
9. Ah, just re-read this one. "Written in the Stars" by Beth (looked at the excerpt first ... but I *might* have gotten it from the quote) /bats eyes hopefully
10. /giggles. I knew I read this one, but couldn't remember the title. A quick search on the most likely author brought me my answer -- LaraMoon's "Different Directions" - from the excerpt

Wow, I think that was probably the easiest Kerth quiz to answer (she says while deliberately looking the other direction from numbers 2 & 7)...

I do loves me some AU/Elseworlds

B

I just know I'm not gonna do well on this one. Could this be a premonition, or the voice of experience?

Quote #1:
“Ruben, I have a confession of my own. My name isn’t really Susan.”

The Man Under the Suit – Happy Girl

Quote #2:
"It's like this, Lois," said Tempus, rising from the chair. "The only thing I really want from you is your absence."
Sounds good but I don’t have a clue. Too many Tempus’, too little time  (pun)

Quote #3:
Clark Kent was in New York last night promoting his new book.

My Inspiration -SQD

Quote #4:
With all of those, and all of the other crazy laws still on the books, was it *possible* that sleeping in the same bed in Lowell County made you legally married?

Backwards III – Carol M

Quote #5:
But when you came and took Clark away from me, you acted like he was your own private property, and the moment he went back to the States, you turned into the town bike. (Who can forget that sentence?)

Aussie Rules – Female Hawk

Quote #6:
When Mom first suggested the costume for helping out, I hadn't been crazy about the idea. Dad hadn't either actually - he thought it would make people think I had something to hide. Hmmm dunno

Quote #7:
Clark quietly finished. "And, well, when I met the other Lois, I knew I had to go back and find you."
Something with the Congo?

Quote #8:
She knew where she had seen Charlie King before. Ten years ago. Her guardian angel.

The Time Traveler’s Wife – ML Thompson

Quote #9:
"This car is unable to anticipate any of my desires," Kal complained.

Written in the Stars by Beth Summerson

Quote #10:
"Wait... what are you suggesting?" Clark asked, befuddled. "That I give you all my notes and play dead while you take all the credit for my work? I guess what they say about you is true then, isn't it?"

From the sentences (and note, these are guesses):

1.
2.
3. "My Inspiration" by Stopquitdont?
4. "Backwards III" by CarolM?
5. "Aussie Rules" by Female Hawk. The "town bike" was a giveaway.
6. "Boy In Black" by anonpip?
7.
8. "The Time-Traveler's Wife" by ML Thompson
9. "Written in the Stars" by Beth Summerson?
10. Oh, this sounds so familiar!


OK, now reading the longer excerpts:

1. Shoot, I know this one and I just can't remember it! L&C go off and get married anonymously in Honduras or somewhere like that, because they've fallen in love. Is it "The Man Under The Suit" by HappyGirl?

2. Another aargh at still not knowing.

7. "Claimed in the Congo" by Mozartmaid

10. "Different Directions" by LaraMoon
