Hi Val!
So, for this one, I’m mostly relying on super shorts given a severe backlog in the story-reading department
1. Clark plays with mayonnaise and his mother’s patience.
*sigh*
2. Jimmy wants to get married
Get it Right by CarrieRene
3. Clark’s family sees red.
*scratches head*
4. A man gets punished.
Literally or figuratively. Let’s go with literally and use
Natural Causes: The Popcorn Kernel by Folc4evernaday
since Lex is in jail there and dies instead of just dying.
There’s also
Nobody by NostalgiaKick
where Lex is punishing Superman for his attempt to out-super Lex.
5. You can change the past if you remember what you did wrong.
Don’t think I’ve got to that one yet.
6. Batman and Superman owe Lois their lives.
*squints*
7. Gardening is hard.
Martha the Black Thumb in
Angel Of Death by Deadly Chakram
8. The mind of a psychopath is a scary place.
While it would be tempting to use Queeny’s Punishment, I’m going with
You Can't Take It With You by Mouserocks
After all, you can’t call Lois a psycho and live to tell the tale. Not to her face, at least…
9. Holiday traditions can change in meaning over the years.
We have a lot of Christmas-fics, but let’s try
My Favorite Time of Year by Folc4evernaday
10. Clark has a twisted sense of humor
*gaaaah*
He does tease Lois a bit in
To Each Their Own by Queen of Capes
11. Under the wrong circumstances, holidays can suck.
It does have a happy ending but starts out rather bleak for Lois:
A Christmas Miracle by LadyTPower
12. Sometimes an asteroid is a blessing in disguise.
13. Clark’s first interview takes a hair-raising twist.
14. Clark sees a heavenly body
We have *two* Nightfall stories in this quizz?
15. Clark trades in his fancy tuxes for a Spandex suit and a press pass.
Nope.
16. Clark needs a nap.
*sigh*
17. Lois learns the consequences of her engagement to Luthor and Clark fears rejection.
Nope.
18. Lois and Clark lose their temper and Dan makes a sandwich.
Maybe one of the Shattered stories?
19. Lois has something important to say.
Doesn’t she ever? But maybe
Moldau by Queen of Capes
Simply because what she is telling Clark *is* kind of important.
20. Living through the bad can help you give encouragement to others.
Ah yes!
