Hey guys,
I hope you can help me. I'm recalling a fic where our favourite couple was at Lois's place. There was a bomb with kryptonite powder and Lois helped a near unconscious Clark to get rid of the dust. As far as I know she didn't know the secret, yet. Does this ring any bells?

Hmm. Lois helped Clark get rid of Kryptonite powder in my story Further On Down the Road, but they weren't at Lois' place. It was during the tests of Superman's powers and susceptibility to the green crystal. Nigel set off a bomb at the Metropolis Museum of Natural History, and the aftermath in in chapter 19. This was part two of a long trilogy. And I'm not sure this is what you remember. But I'm usually ready to pimp for any of my stories.

Hey there, This seems a little similar to my story Spark of Discovery. In it, it's not a bomb, but a firework laced with Kryptonite. Lois takes the nearly unconscious Superman to her place where he uses the shower to rid himself of the dust. Lois is not in on the secret and worries about not being able to get a hold of Clark.

The suggestions are great, but unfortunately they're both not the fic I was searching for. I believe it's older than the two of them

The only one I can think of right now is Dimensions of Loving by Chris Mulder, although it's not exactly what you're looking for. There's kryptonite powder, but not from a bomb, nor are they in Lois' apartment at the time. It is the second of two stories, the other being Love Beyond Measure, both excellent stories.

Two stories I love, but unfortunately not the right one, either. I think the bomb was sent to Lois apartment as a package.

My story That Old Clone of Mine involved a Kryptonite mail bomb, but it was delivered to Clark's apartment, not to Lois's. Could that be the story you were thinking about?
