Well... Um... Busy weekend... Mother's Day and all... I think I'll just...

Comments?

PS: About that other plot twist, well, my apologies for any rough edges... it was a late addition.

I'm getting worried Perry and Jimmy are going to put Lois away for her own safety. I thought Dr. Arianna Carlin might be making an appearance.

Hope Lois' letter makes an impact with Clark's parents.

Joan

OK. Everyone thinks Lois is crazy. In canon, Ariana's plan was to make everyone think Lois was crazy. When not-Lois was killed, they realized Lois wasn't crazy, so not-Lois's imminent death seems to be maybe what might keep our Lois out of the loony-bin. But... then what? Alt-Clark comes and he and Lois live happily every after? But then why does Star see the past in Lois's (and all of Metropolis's) future? Doesn't that mean Herb has saved baby Clark and the world gets a "do-over"? But if the past is re-played in the future, where does Alt-Clark fit in?

Ariana!

Sydney,

Virginia is simply using that as an explanation for the cast change that happened between s1 and s2 to the Jimmy Olsen character.

Virginia, I tend to agree. You are just being elil. I really never likes Ariana and now that name is associated with an uber-liberal blog - the Huffington Post it is even More distasteful.

Oh well, Lois will need to deal with her. At least she doesn't have Superman to target with subliminal messages.
Since in this reality Lois never got that close to Lex does Ariana have that much of a grudge to hold against Lois?

Joan: Thanks for your take on my story. Let's hope M&J read the letter before shredding it.

Vicki: Um... I think your a little bit confused.

In canon the not-Lois was still alive at the end of "Madame Ex" doing with Arianna the lamest car chase (with the exception of the gas tanker) in L&C history. They realized that Lois wasn't crazy because she was with Clark with not-Lois attacked the Planet with the gas canister and that Arianna was Lex's ex.

Not really.

Sorry, you're feeling dizzy. Help, the Spoilage Police are dragging me awayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy. (How's that for vague? )

Sydney: <<bats eyelashes innocently>> Who me? Evil? Don't tell the others. And no, that does not happen in next chapter.

Ken's got it right (Ken, see below).

Ken One dancing Clarkie bear for you. Yes, why would Arianna hold a grudge against a woman who thinks that if Lex hadn't died he would have proposed to her? They're going to be the best of buds, no?

So, it looks like we have two on the Anti-Arianna (Pro-Deter) team, and everyone else hates Deter? Is that right? Okay, maybe it was just everyone is against all evil psychiatrists.

Really liked this chapter! I can't believe (and simultaneously applaud) your bringing Arianna Carlin into this! She's going to lock up and kill Lois! And Perry and Jimmy will let her just because they think she should be in the looney bin!

Can't wait for more tonight! Sorry I don't have a lot of comments, but I've been dealing with a lot of stuff recently, so yeah.

Side note: As unlikely as it seems (because if time *is* righted and dead-Clark does come back, then it will likely reset to their own point in time and no one will remember anything), I would like Lois to get her I-told-you-so moment, just to prove to Perry and Jimmy for once and for all that she's not crazy and that she's always right. But again. Not likely to happen.

really? not-Lois didn't die? huh. well to be honest I haven't seen an episode in I don't know how long. I actually had the whole show on tape but its been years now that I don't own a vcr player. so between my faulty memory and the twists in this it's-the-show-but-not-the-show plot I think I am doubly

Thank you.



I'm sorry, Mouse. Hug? /Hmmmm. Maybe that would be ackward./ Well, it's here if you want it.

Because she's never had the chance to say that before? Interesting theory.

You're right, it's probably my fault for confusing you. I like to spin around my readers so they don't know which side is up. Readers = Me =

Well, I just finished prepping Part 22 and Lois is definitely STILL alive at the end of it. Hope that wasn't TOO big of a spoiler.

Thanks, Ken and Virginia.

So, "cousin Jimmy" (Season one) is dead in this Lois'dimension and was replaced by Season 2 Jimmy.
But if "cousin Jimmy" was saved in DreamClark's dimension, does it mean that in DreamClark's dimension, Jimmy is the same in Season one and Season 2 (no Justin?).

Yes.
DreamClark dimension is basically canon (what happened on the show). That dimension is still alive and kicking and both its Lois and Clark are fine (at the moment; who knows with those two). Let's just say that in this story I'm implying that Jimmy S1 and Jimmy S2-S4 are cousins (explains the same name but different personalities and looks). What happens to S1 Jimmy and how Justin's Jimmy became the Jimmy S2-S4 is explained further in Book 2. (This was the rough edges story twist I apologized for as it was a late addition. But I couldn't change it in Book 2 and then NOT have it in Book 1, right?)

I'm sorry but I am not allowed to answer that question in more detail without revealing spoilers for Book 2. My apologies.

Yeah. I mean, he was alive once. But that changed after he talked to Linda King.

Uh-kay.

Duh!

Right. See? I’m not crazy.

/imagines Lois using a boxcutter on Jimmy in a very creative fashion.

The stories he was printing? Uh-oh.

Oh. That one.

Okay. She’s gone how.



/shakes head sadly/ And she had so much promise. But it’s always the candles that burn the brightest that go out the earliest, too.

Umm…

She really *is* gone.





He catches Tank?

See?

Which would also be why he’s dead now.

Umm…He dies. And resurrects. And dies again.

Buuuurn!

*Buuuuuuuurn*!

Michael

I'm actually not quite sure how this happens or where the time goes. Michael

Yes, that's the one. And I'm not that old, I just feel that old.

Ha. Ha.

Ooooh. We should suggest it to Lynn for next year's April Fools fic. Since Lois is the only one who do that without being fired.

Clark's a blood loving American? Or are you confusing my story with Nan's Vampire story?

That's someone's WIP at the moment. I hope it shows up soon.

Weeks in posting schedule, the night before in actual timeline.

Jimmy: But... but... but, I didn't get to touch her!

Hence the decades...

Ooooooooooh!

Oooops?

/taps foot/

Would make a fun joke t-shirt.

Huh, every 2000 years some disembodied entity wreaks havoc.

Michael

Why not? Zeus impregnated a woman once without a body. I think he made himself into some sort of mist or golden rain shower or ray of light or something. I cannot remember who the woman was (or the child) off the top of my head, some mortal -- obviously not Hera, his wife, heaven forbid! He liked to change his form when cheating on his wife, so it wouldn't be so obvious that he was cheating on her. Sneaking, that one.

Virginia, the woman is Danae, daughter of Acrisios (the king of Argos). Zeus and Danae's son is Perseus.

Thanks, Sydney, I knew it was someone important.
