Lois & Clark Forums Forums Fan Fiction Lois & Clark Fanfic FDK - There's No Place Like Home - Part 21

Okay, it's Monday so I guess I can post this part. Alright, so maybe it's very early on Monday morning, but today looks as if it's going to be busy, so I figured I should get this next part out of the way.

Hope you enjoy.

I love this tale, and this was another well done part.

But much as I am enjoying it, I wonder if it would not be even better as a complete AU?

Maybe sometime in the future you could think about taking out the frame, filling in the gaps and making it a rather long AU tale?

I love the way without Superman in the way, nothing, and I mean nothing, stops the attraction between Lane and Kent.


BTW that end of season one in the last part, are you planning to go through all four seasons?

Yea! Season 2 is here. The flower and note from Lois was so sweet. How could you leave us standing at her door looking at Clark!

And we're back to cliffhangers. ML, you're not by any chance addicted on the tension dripping off of your readers, are you?

Wait. Is this a *hint*. Of course it's hint. ML, doesn't type a single word without a hidden meaning. So Lois knows. Probably since the end of season 2, right? Right? RIGHT? RIGHT?

Lois is *fired*. Lois is emotionally down. Clark is there. Are you going to cause her to have stretchmarks, ML? Are they going to find Vicky and her sitter when they get home to Regina (?) Street?

Come on. Don't leave us hanging like this.

You are pure evil.

Send it on into my inbox and we'll call it even .

Argh!! I can't take the suspense! Any chance on the next part being posted tomorrow?

I'm hearing Debbie Gibson in my head: "I get lost in your eyes, and I feel my spirits rise..."

Yes, I actually remember Debbie Gibson. And New Kids, but let's not dwell on that.

Wonderful chapters, MLT. Still loving it!

I actually tried writing an AU with the premise that Lois and Clark worked for rival papers. And after more than 100 pages, I finally made it through the pilot episode . At that point, I knew that to tell this story, I was going to have to approach it differently.

So... like a stone skipping across the water, I'm giving you the highlights. The other option just wasn't an option - unless I wanted to make this story a full time job for the next four years .

That's not true. I've typed the word 'and' several times without having a hidden meaning.

Well, tomorrow is a holiday here in Canada so I suppose it's possible that I'll get a chance to post the next part tomorrow sometime.

Thanks for all the replies. I'm glad you're still enjoying this story.

The rose was so sweet...

But you can't leave us there! Pleeease! I can't hang for long!

YAY!!!

Is it tomorrow yet? :p

I see, well drat! I was hoping to see a scene where Clark tells off Perry. Maybe because this Perry has been quite the petty vindictive little tyrant.

and so forth

Go easy on Perry, Framework. After all, you don't yet know why he feels that way. Once you do, I think you'll tend to agree with Perry. In fact, you might even find yourself questioning how Lane can even stand to talk to Kent.

So when Lois does recall what evil thing Clark did to Perry, clearly she'll drop him in a hot second in spite of their shared memories and a few weeks later she won't remember ever thinking it happen differently.

So sorry about Vicky.

BTW it is really hard to picture something that excuses Perry's attitudes. You are writing him as such an unpleasant nasty person.


I'd expect some lawsuits if he did discharge someone.

There were some very sweet moments in this portion. The rose that chose to be bought. The fact that when "Lane" is down and out "Kent" is there for her.

My favorite scene, though, is where she takes his face in her hands to reassure him of their love for each other, afraid they would be bewitched by the dual memories. Intense.

Great part as always. I'm a little scared to where this story is going. It seems that you might actually take us through the whole four seasons and maybe past that, I'm not sure how I feel about that. On the one hand it would make this story longer and I don't want it to end anytime soon but I have this feeling like you're gonna wait till you go through most of the show before you reveal what happened and I don't know if I can stand the suspense. I'm scared of what we'll find when we get to Lois' apartment, maybe she is married and has moved on with her life and on that note how can we be sure that Clark hasn't.

I'm getting the sense from the story that what Clark did to Lois or what everybody thinks he did is something beyond horrible like rape and then this made me wonder.
I hope I'm wrong and its not nearly that bad so please come back here and show me that I'm reaching way too far.

The longer the story, the better as far as I'm concerned. Im gripped! Can't wait for the next part!

Keep in mind that I have to keep people's characters the same. So Clark isn't going to start raping people.

People are all just responding to different stimuli - but, hopefully, they are still acting in character.

For now... think how Perry might treat Luthor if Luthor had still been in power after they had discovered what he had done to Perry's precious Daily Planet.

Anyway, next part should be posted in the next few minutes.
