Happy Valentine's Day Folcs!

(Also, I hope this little bit of somewhat WAFFy fluff earns me some forgiveness for posting a bleak story about Perry's death a few days ago.)

Love that Clark takes helping Lois's mood so seriously, like his own personal mission, and that he feels a bit of pride for being able to help Lois.

And wow, Ellen Lane is nothing if not the exact opposite of subtle, is she? at even Clark's crushing optimism taking a blow.

How sweet that Lois actually realized what Clark had been doing during lunch and that he was always there for her. Not dating Luthor certainly speeds up her Clark revelations, doesn't it?

My heart just about melted when Clark said he might not be her knight or her dream guy but asked if he could be her valentine anyway--and I laughed when she called him a sentimental marshmallow.

How characteristic that Clark chose an ice cream flavor she'd like even though it wasn't his favorite.

The end was just the right touch--love the description about his spirits flying high.

Great Valentine's Day story!

Awww! Sniff, sniff. (Blow nose.)

Wonderful little love story. Thanks, Vicki.

Pat

Awwww! I loved it!!!

First off, thank you for reminding me how wonderful any little touch is when one is in love. Anyone who could bring Clark down deserved to be tarred and feathered!

I had to read this twice. I thought the crowd was yelling at him to "Jump!" Metropolis, what has gotten into to you?! Whew, it was just another mis-read by me though.

I love that Clark makes himself feel better by making someone else feel better. He's such a sweetie!

For a second there, I thought Superman was accidentally going to have a romantic dinner with Lois. Whew!

Yeah, you keep on believing that one, Clark. By the way, I've got this bridge in Brooklin I'd love to sell you...

I love this! Clark is so a marshmallow!

This is a nice change for the woman who told Lex once "I never eat dessert." (Thanking my lucky stars, she never asked THAT man what he was offering.)

We need to package up Clark's essence in a shot made available to most men for Valentine's Day. What a more happy world this would be.

Thank you for reminding me about the little things, DC. Great story!

Thank you so much, AntiK! Glad that you enjoyed this fluffy little tale. Ellen Lane is about as far from subtle as humanly possible. And yes, no Lex in the picture does open the gates for a lot speedier revelations to Lois about how she really feels about Clark.

Thank you, Pat! Hope you are well!

Thank you so much! Glad you liked it!

You're very welcome. Ah, the thrill of a brand new love. Makes every little touch be heightened by about 3000%. And you are right, it does take a lot of courage to tell them how you feel.



*watchs as Clark checks how much money he's got in his wallet*

Soft, squishy, and full of sugary sweetness!

Oh God! I, too, would hate to know what Lex's "dessert" would have been. Oooh, Essence Of Clark...maybe not as a shot, but as a cologne available all year long? Maybe peace on Earth would finally have a chance!

Thanks for the lovely feedback!!

Just peeking in to let you know how much I enjoyed your story. Very, very touching, beautiful, cute... Loved it!

Thanks so much, Lara! Glad you enjoyed it!

Wonderfully WAFFy

Thank you so much, Ken!

That was just adorable. Loved it. Laura

Thank you, Laura!

Lovely, as usual! I read this in bed last night before I fell asleep with visions of waffy plums dancing in my head!

Aww! Thanks, Mrs. Luthor! Always happy to provide the WAFFs!

What a wonderfully sweet story.

Joy,
Lynn

Awww! Thanks so much, Lynn! Glad you liked it.

Who could ask for a sweeter more innocent WAFFY story than this!

I'm not a big fan of Valentine's Day, just like Lois I think it is very tough on single people, but this was special.

Battle on!

Thank you, Morgana! Before I met my husband, I used to dress in black and watch horror movies on Valentine's Day, because, yes, it *is* tough on single people. I *almost* made Lois do the same thing (mention watching some horror movies as her plan for the night). Glad you enjoyed!

Was going to review this story on ff.net, and was going back to check and see just what I wrote on these comments (since I hate double commenting )... and I learned that I never actually commented on this story! Don't know how that got past me... I guess it must have had something to do with my internet connection... but the blame is solely my own.

I actually really liked the idea of lunch with Ellen taking Clark down a peg- too funny! At least we know where Lois gets her sense of dramatics from.

The jumper was a good little side point. Although it actually made me think of a "Mike and Molly" episode I caught the other day (a show I normally don't watch, but I can find anything to procrastinate) which I literally lol'd at.
Just reminded me of Lois and Clark, for some reason (probably your story :p ).

Anyways... back on topic, I loved this line from *your* story:
Perfect! We have a new nickname for Clark (when lunkhead doesn't fill the picture)!

Great job!

LOL! Thanks! (I also hate double commenting, so I totally get you!)

Seriously though! Ellen's kind of a nut that way. Plus, I just thought it would be kind of funny if she just bulldozed down his optimism.

That quote was just too good! Never heard of that show though...Glad you liked the jumper. I waffled on that part, but ultimately decided that Clark needed that second splash of cold water all over his optimism.

Thanks!

Dress in black and watch Horror movies? Nope before I meet my husband I either worked late or had lots of single friends over for games and dessert.

It was a cool way to put thoughts of romance out of our minds and still meet interesting people!

Hmmm come to think of it, that would be a cool way for Lucy to spend *next* Valentine's Day!

Again, thanks for the awesome story.

That's a nice thing, Morgana, and definitely a good way to put thoughts of romance safely out of mind. When I was in college, I'd invite people into my room and watch The Evil Dead movies. When I was working, it was different - I was getting home around 8pm and was usually dead-tired (was crunch time in the college admissions office). So no inviting people over.

I actually never had a boyfriend on Valentine's Day. I was always single...and when I did meet my husband, we were already engaged by the time V-Day rolled around.

Oooh! Darth Michael is here!
