Clark is so dead.  And the best part is, I can't find it in me to pity him at all. He deserves everything that's coming. Of course, that's assuming that it was an unwitting revelation scene. More soon please!

Hi, Great part.  And yet being in love with Kal felt like a betrayal of Clark. She couldn’t forget Clark. She couldn’t put out of her mind the way he’d smiled at her every morning when she walked down the ramp and into the bullpen, the way he’d brought her coffee without her having to even say she needed her caffeine fix...  Lois you should be ashamed of yourself.

In my opinion there is only one way that Lois could ever forgive Kal for his deception. Actually I don't really believe there is any way that Lois could forgive him, but for the sake of the story, if she could, it could only happen if Clark stays strong.
He can't go all wishy-washy and grovel. That would only validate Lois' feelings of betrayal. He has to stick to his guns as to the fact that 'Clark Kent' *is* dead. Even if the body didn't perish, the identity did. There was no good reason for him to tell her that Clark wasn't really killed, because for all intents and purposes, he was.
Of course, we all know that the logic is flawed, especially when it comes to sparing Lois some of her grief. But the only way she might forgive him is if he can convince her that his decisions were made under that convictions that her partner, the Daily Planet reporter, Clark Kent is now, and always will be, dead.

Oh. Wow. Clark. Is. Dead. But in any case, she finally knows. Now what's left to see is what will be left of his once she's done with him.  I mean, I can see why she'd get even more provoked by the fact he put on his own shirt, assuming it'd be okay. Just strolling out of there like that. Looking, in a way, victorious, that he'd won Lois (by deceit), and he can just wear whatever he finds in her bathroom and no matter if it's Clark's shirt (which to her, is like a holy memory). I guess she might also think he recognized it since it was his, and put it on to symbolize that "Clark is dead; long live Superman." Only while he can say that to himself, Lois wouldn't be very happy with a statement like that. And he was hers.
Well, mostly. I could just hear the narrator say that. Starting with this wholesome voice of Happily Ever After, and finishing with a completely different tone of voice. Which I suppose is how Lois feels, and she can't let go of this other tone of voice. There was no sense of loneliness, of insecurity. She had to know what had dragged him out of her bed. Why he'd left her. Whether it had been an emergency, or... Or if he'd just changed his mind. If he'd decided he didn't want her after all. No. No insecurities at all. Poor Lois.  Great part - now get on with it. We want to see if Clark can manage to stay in one piece. <g> Julie

H and W, I am now sure the only reason you’re collaborating on this is an attempt to reach the ultimate cliffhanger. I’ve read all the comments people made before me and I just need to remind everyone of one very important fact – this is a story written by two writers trying to write the most angsty story ever. That said - having Lois realize now Clark didn’t really die protecting her seems a little too simple a solution. (I’ll stop at this point as this twosome doesn’t need any more encouragement or ideas.) Looking forward to the next part, Avia

Well, if Lois doesn't kill him, then I will...
Wendy & Kae, as you know, I had problems with Clark sleeping with Lois as Superman, even under the extreme circumstances that they found themselves in. But I understand the premise for your story and I've been staying in for the ride.
And I read Clark's justifications, I see his despair when new circumstances crop up...but despite all, for me personally I just can't believe that he would actually do all this.
Having read *many* revelation stories, I sometimes get annoyed when Lois typically goes over the top and refuses to forgive Clark for a long period of time. Makes him grovel, etc. There are certainly elements there that are canonical, but this is probably why some people complain about the "doormat" aspect of their relationship.
But here, I'm not quite sure how she could ever forgive him. People make colossal mistakes, and can be forgiven. But he is piling on one after another, and has had several clear opportunities (that he's recognized himself) to pull back and just tell her.
I don't think I've ever rooted for Lois *against* Clark before. It'll be an interesting change...
