Wrong Place, Wrong Time, Wrong Clark TOC can be found Here

100? I need a vacation.

I'll be away from my main copy of "Wrong Clark" for the next week, at a location with iffy internet connections, trying to catch up on my cushion which is now currently at 4 parts (sorry, betas ). I should be back and posting as usual late on Tuesday, April 2nd. correction: April 9th - (EW receives failing grade in reading calenders.) Please use your extra time wisely this week, and vote for your favorite stories. Kerth Award Voting is this week only!

Please, still leave comments. I may not be able to respond to them quickly, but I can still read them.

And, yes, I just now realized (due to shifting of scenes for part length) that here was another part without Clark, physically present. My apologies. I promise he'll return in Part 101... and 102... and in 103... and 104... and 105...

Oh my goodness. I really like the Lois/Cat scene but *grrrrr* Why, why, why has Lois decided to keep this from Clark. NO. I've been so looking forward to them meeting and having that talk.

I'm also realy annoyed at Lois wanting to do this invistigation. As I reader I'm privy to the knowledge that the Kryptonite involved in the attempted murder of Clark was quite coincidental. Lois is right that someone's after Clark - Lex, but there is actually no need to worry at all, becasue it's nothing to do with killing Superman and having Kryptonite. Clark is perfectly safe so she has no need to do this investigation or keep her knowledge from Clark.

What I really hope is that Clark lets is slip IMMEDIATLY when he returns anyway, so she's left with no option. YAY. I'm going with that ... till you post next part anyway.

Oh no, I hope Dr.Klein is considered "too inept" to me among the list for scientists Luthor will have as "guests."

Oh Lois, I wish you weren't seriously considering going "under the covers" with Luthor.

Sounds like Lois is going to cause more trouble. Clark better get back soon!

Joan

Happy centennial!

Better that way than the other way around, which would mean, Cat would now be dead, killed by a typewriter bashed against her head.

Yep, she’s in no way worked up.

CAT: [img]http://tinyurl.com/czms7n9[/img]

She’s a smart cookie. [img]http://tinyurl.com/bmsu3j6[/img] And if it weren’t for that one slip-up with the mole…

Hello? Mole people! (no comma, sic)

LOIS: Perrrryyyyy!
PERRY: Oh, don’ t get me involved in that squabble. I ain’t not know nothing about anything. Yodelidado!



LOIS: What? What do you mean Superman had a face before?

Meow!

No? Then why did he have to wash his suit every day to get the wet stains out?

LOIS: Perry knows, too. I mean…oops?
BILL: What about me?
M&J:
LOIS: Last? *Really*?

LOIS: Kissing.
CAT:

CLARK: Caaaat? Lois keeps sneaking out on me. Last night I saw her with Lex. She’s still not listening. Caaaat? What do you think. I can’t make her squeal in delight like I hear when I fly over your part of town.

Dip Ralph in some boiling water and then date him?

/hands Cat a diploma with an ‘A’ in Clarkology/

So, Cat should start running?

Oh boy.
CAT: Does that mean I get another shot at him?

To be fair, he did think she’d forget about all that within just a second or two of him flying off. Too bad he doesn’t yet remember that he also needs to think the safe word (Abacus) while kissing Lois.



No. They’re just smart enough to figure it out on their own.

LOIS: He’s *so* dead.

She’s one smart cookie!

But he thinks that all the time. What she actually needs is someone to distract Clark.
LOIS: [img]http://tinyurl.com/cfd6vse[/img] How about you take Clark for a trip to Vegas. I don’t know, tell him you want to get married or something. Just keep him away from Metropolis for a week or so.

Her own. This is about Clark. And she’s the only one allowed to hunt him down and skin him alive.



NIGEL: I would never be impolite to a higher-up I might one day end up shooting in the back.



Plus, some of them have lady parts.

LEX: What do you mean, I make people jumpy?
NIGEL:



So, no delegating of doing Lois, then, huh?

But what if she’s not willing?

Cat and Lois spent several hours with Clark. It was all rather raunchy.

Metropolis Bridge and Tunnel Authority.

But it’s all very hush-hush. Which reminds me, I still have *that* plot bunny sitting around and coloring Easter eggs…

Isn’t he adorable? He’s getting her a hobby!

Wait, how can a betrayal be forced? Wouldn’t that just kind of cause Lex to spontaneously combust?

MAJOR TOM: Yes?

PERRY: Cat and Lois are now *friendly*? Oh dear. There goes my newsroom…

Are you nuts? If he can land the asteroid in the Arizona crater, we’ll have rare space elements to last us at least for the next decade.

Because he’s a big ol’ drama queen and an attention whore to boot.

His outside undergarments?

Hope you’re having a great week off before you get back to with lots of and and .

Wait, what? You posted in the 30th and will be back on the 2nd? That’s not a whole week? Does that mean you got the dates wrong? Or will there not really be a hiatus?

Lex only wants scientists below 40. Or was it below 30? Just below 30 for female scientists?

er... um... April 8th, that is. Um... just testing you. Uh.. You pass! discovers drawback to letting Cat be her muse/

Michael

Yay! Loved it can't wait until the Meeting. Laura

Actually she really is hiding, but I guess it is mainly so she can think better.

Overwhlemed and scared. Fortuantly the later is mainly because of false suppositions, but still.

Clark:Lois was in pain, and hurting, and crying. I should not have left her at all. The least I could do was give her a lift.

Lois in pain was clearly a higher priority. He made the right decision to give her a lift. I am less sure he should have run off on her earlier, but giving her a lift was clearly the right decision.

I guess Cat does not know that Lois was in pain. Still, she is not really understanding Lois and Clark's relationship, at all.

Clark:At least she does not think I told Cat.

Lois has not said anything that makes it clear she knows CK=SM. The "dropped you off" line sounds like that if you know, but it is not very clear.

for Clark ignoring Cat.

Lois won't be in the dark anymore.

I really do wish Clark and Lois would have had some conversation. He really should have told her everything before going into space.

Right, she just tries to get him to come in her apartment and talk with her while she is in the shower.

Clark:Hey, I was going to tell her, but she figured out before I got a chance.

Actually, technically Lois started the kiss. Also, he thought Lois knew before she kissed him.

Even Cat should bother asking who initiated the kiss.

Cat really does not understand Clark. Even if him and Lois had totally established an understanding and talked through everything and she had forgiven his lunkheadedness and everything was wonderful, he would still be friends with Cat.

Clark is friends with people because they need him, not because he needs them. I am looking forweard to Clark confiding in Lois, but I have fears it will not be anytime soon.

If you keep telling yourself that Lois, maybe eventually you will believe it.

This is realy not a fair assesment. She knows who they are at heart. Anyway Clark tried to tell her, she just did not listen. OK, at the time it clearly seemed not to work, but still.

Actually, at heart I do not think Clark likes to do that. He does it because it is the best way to do the things he want to do.

I guess she has a point. Still, he did try to tell her. Also, he has been planning to tell her for two weeks now. He really should have told her back in October.

True, but maybe she should try to figure out why he is so worried about her. Not that she could actually learn that right now since he does not remember.

Actually, he didn't tell Cat, she figured it out.

Actually he has told the Kents and Carlos more than he told Cat. that Lois does not know that yet.

Actually Cat really has no clue who Clark really is. Lois evidently has been sidetracked into thinking SM is his real identity, although she knows he must have another name.

Except he never even mentioned her to the Kents.

I really think Clark should have factored in how mad Lois would be at Cat knowing first in the past, and told her sooner because of it.

Although most recently it is Cat's fault. She was the one who instited to Clark he not tell Lois he was Superman.

Cat maybe should tell Lois this detail.

she never will work things out with this attitude.

That is just unfair and petty. This is especially so because she knows he tried to tell her back in October, she just did not believe him.

On the other hand, I guess I understand why she is mad about this. Ideally he would tell her very soon, but I have a sinking fear that he will not.

Arguably this is the one stage in their relationship they really never built up much in the TV show. I mean, as long as Lois learns that CK=SM by a way other than him telling her, there are all sorts of ways to play this out.

This is the real reason the proposal came to soon in L&C. They could have done all sorts of fun things with Lois knowing but Clark thinking he still had to pretend to be two people to her.

I guess that is the one plus to her not telling him. Still, I am abpout it.

It truly is evil of youto leave your readers hanging here. I'm so glad that I've read the next several parts

Clark thinks Lois knows. This will be interesting to see if she can convince him she does not know.

Clark:OK, maybe I should have been more explicit. However she said "clark" as we kissed, and I tild her we would talk. I really had to call Henderson and then stop Nightfall.

Reader:Still, you should have been a bit more clear, and said "Lois, I know you didn't know I was also Clark until just now, but I think I wanted to tell you, I even gave the Kent's a letter to give to you if I didn't return that told you that I was Clark." I guess though that would have been more coherent than their conversations normally are.

This is a good point. I wish Cat was a bit more explicit in saying he has not recovered his memories.

When? At what point since she told him she loved him did he have time? On the other hand, has she realized this was what he was going to tell her when they got interupted, the thing she explicitly told him she did not want him to tell her? Or is that just too harsh a memory. I guess it is easy to see things from Clark's standpoint when we understand why he listened to Herb's ( ) no good advice. at Herb. He really messes everything up.

Well, in some ways Lois is really telling the truth. However I think her anger at Clark right now is fueled by her really feeling they did hook up.

It would be nice if she would discuss it with Clark. I wish he would have been more open about his reasons for what he did, although I do understand why he is hesitant to tell Lois about the curse.

This is a good argument. I don't think it will work with Lois though.

I have to for the first time ever admit that it is good for Clark to have Cat as a friend.

Lois is going to talk with Clark.

or not. However at least her reasoning won't be built so much around anger.

This could be very bad for his secret. Of course both Lois and Cat think his secret was exposed by the killing. Hopefully he recovers his memory soon on this matter, but I doubt it.

Although Lois is probably right that Luthor has kryptnite, in reality Clark was exposed to kryptonite last controlled by Lois.

I am really worried about this.

Cat does have a good point.

Since even Lois does not know about his past this will be an interesting exchange. I wonder what Lois would surmise if she found the picture of alt-Clark's parents that has been stolen by Luthor's agents.

She has strong circumstancial evidence that Luthor was the man behind the whole thing. Not enough to do anything with, but she has it.

I hope she does not try to go directly though Luthor. He has always tried to present a respectable image to her, so directly contacting him won't really be a good way to get into the organization. I have my doubts that this will work, even with Lois' special memories.

She may have a point here. Although with Clark's memory what it is right now, it is really hard to say how valid a point it is.

Good point. I wish Cat would just tell Clark everything about what is happening.

Wait, isn;t it maybe a bit late for that.

This is going to tear Clark apart if he does not realize that Lois is only working undercover.

Maybe, maybe not.

I doubt she does. Still, if she can bring down The BossTM, than things will be good.

This might be a little true, however Cat really does not understand why Clark is so protiective of Lois. His original Lois died, and he feels really bad about it. His parents died, and that tore him up too.

This still might be the case even though the do not know CK=SM.

Clark was right in thinking he would be toast if Lois and Cat teamed up.

I am really worried about what this will do to Clark though.

Oh no, this is so going to break his heart.

For his own good, of course. At least this time it will make sense, a little, maybe.

Not if Lois quits the DP and goes to work for the Metropolis Star or LNN.

This story is going to get even more complexed.

Assuming a-Lois can convince him that she does not know ([possilbe), b-Lois can forestall him from telling her (that will be harder, but I expect Lois to succeed, mainly because you have a chance to have Lois know but CK not know Lois knows, and that leads to all sorts of fun I expect you won't pass up) and c-Clark does not remember Carlos, or figure out Henderson knows.

I hope it does not come to that.

Hey, better that than have Cat tell Clark that Lois knows.

Clark:Hey, no one doubts that I love Lois.

Someone commented they hoped Bernard Klein was not in this bunch. He does not strike me as "young", so I highly doubt it.

I am somewhat surprised he so limited himself.

Lois knows the truth.

she thinks of him as Superman.

Oh no! I have a real bad feeling about what is going to happen. I really hope Superman just tells her he is Clark, so she can't claim that she does not know, but I just know that is not what is going to happen.

Virginia,

Seriously, you aren't putting Lois into the loin's (Luthor's) den.

I don't know if I can watch!

KatherineKent: Oh, my.
Sorry, Dr. Klein is too old for Lex's lair...er... bunker ark. The people he's recruited are young and smart, cutting edge. Lex will have been the oldest member of the Ark.

There's going undercover, and there's "going under the covers". Lois might do the former, but never the latter with Lex. (She wouldn't even do the latter with Lex when she thought she really liked him in canon.) Anyway, part of her appeal is that he can't have her... she's the forbidden fruit.

Joan: Thanks for dropping in.
First scene of 101 is from Clark's POV, unless I misremember what I prepped last night. No, that seems right. I wanted it to be the last scene of 100 but it pushed the part way too long.

Laura: I'm glad you enjoyed it.



Mrs.Luthor: Hi, Beta!
And they call me evil. <<ducking>>

Good thing there's no pictures then, huh?

Thank you all for reading and commenting! Posting again late tomorrow night. (9th, not 8th )

We want Wrong clark! We want Wrong Clark! (Hey, I'll take Wrong Clark or Right Clark. Just about any kind of Clark!)

rkn: Glad you miss my story.
Part 101 posted last night, and Part 102 will post late on Friday as scheduled.

Michael: Yummy! Chocolate bunnies! Lois! Put that down! Michael left those for me.

LOIS:

EW: <<backs away slowly and leaves chocolate bunny on the ground>> My apologies, Lois. You're absolutely correct. Those were probably for you.
Thank you! It wouldn't have been anywhere near as much without you.



CLARK: It wasn't *every* day. Some days Superman didn't even see Lois. Of course, on those days I had to wash the drool out of my ties... but we're regressing...



Which is why rubbing it in Lois's face that she knew first, figured it out on her own, and knew for MONTHS longer than Lois, will feel so good.

CAT:

CAT: No.

CAT: Kiss my butt, Lane!

CAT: /Holds up diploma in Clarkology/ Lois needs me now.

LOIS: Take all the shots you've got and let me know how that works for you.

You mean to invoke the Memory Wipe Kiss?

That's the one.

It's too bad he's invulnerable again, isn't it?

LOIS: Well, not yet. If *I* had been trying to kill Clark, I would have succeeded and nobody would be the wiser.

-- continuation of response to Michael's FDK --
Yeah, that would really smooth out the bumps in their relationship, wouldn't it?



Oh, so you've seen the first Breaking Dawn/Twilight (honeymoon) movie, have you? She gets the big bed, and he gets the couch, right? Or are you referring to Joan's story? <<same scenario>>

CAT: /looks in her closet/ With or without spiked collar?

Sounds about right.

It's based on Clark's model?

LEX: Well, if it's the only way Lois will accept coming into my bed. <<shrugs>> How can I say no?

LOIS: NO! Ewwwww!

MRS. COX: I have a future with Lex?

It really is the only way to go up in a criminal organization.

Hmmmm. One of my Betas had the same reaction. Really, shocked?

LEX: /lighting cigar/ Correction: pretty and young*, lady parts.
*Lex means between the ages of 18-30.

NIGEL: Sir, are you saying that I should get off your balcony railing then?

NIGEL appears disappointed, as does Mrs. Cox.

LEX: Really, Michael, she'll be sleeping with *me*! What's not to love?

-- 2nd Continuation of Response to Michael's FDK --

LEX: Nigel! Go back in time and resend that order canceling cameras put up at Kent's apartment.

NIGEL: Whatever you say, sir.



So, Easter eggs, was it?

LEX: Better than her concentrating on trying to win me back.

LEX: /shows ER his shiny new green cufflinks. And the lead lined wall with green manacles on green chains./ I mean, Superman would be forced, not Lois. Of course, she'd be willing. Hello? ME!



JIMMY: Think outside the box, Chief. Bikini mud wrestling day!

PERRY: Go fix my toaster, Olsen!

CLARK: Oooops? Nobody told me. And the birds wouldn't give me directions to Arizona.

CARPENDER: /Slams his hand down on his desk/ Someone has been breaking into my computer and stealing copies of my future editorials!

LOIS: I have no doubt about the answer to that question.

Thank you. It's good to be home. Back to work on Part 107, so I don't fall belong 5 part cushion again and have to push back my posting schedule.

Yes, male below 40, female below 30.

CANON LOIS: See, it only goes to show that even Lex thinks women are smarter than men. It takes men 10 years longer to become as competent at a job than a woman.

CLARK: Even I know that wasn't what that meant.

John: Thanks for the FDK. I'm almost all caught up.

Potateo. Pototo. (or Potato / Tomato) AKA same difference.

LOIS: *I'm* not overwhelmed. And I don't get scared. Whose been feeding you this false data?

EW: Good thing she's not defensive or anything.

LOIS: Hey!

So, he should have just let that man attack Cat?

CLARK: Wait. I made a good decision?

She annoyed and doesn't like Lois much.

LOIS: I'm giving you the benefit of the doubt. If you had told her and not me, you'll be dead by the end of the week. Sorry, it's Monday, by tomorrow.

Which is why Cat isn't spilling the beans.

Would've, should've, but didn't.

LOIS: That's need to know. And Cat doesn't need to know.

Hey, just like in canon.



LOIS: As I said. Need to know.

Does it really matter to her?

Why? (In her opinion) People use you until you've outgrown your usefulness then they move on.

See Cat's above logic.

Confiding in Cat doesn't come easily for her. Actually, confiding in anyone doesn't come easy.

If she didn't know a major part of either one of them, how could she have really known either of them. Even with this knowledge she still doesn't know about the other dimensional stuff, so I'm going to have to agree with her here.

CAT: Fine! I like him to fly around in those body hugging tights. Better?

Her point is that if he really wanted to tell her, he would have found a way, and he didn't, so that must mean...

LOIS: Duh! Because he loves me. Obvious, there.

CLARK: Hello? Saving the world, here. A bit busy.

Lois knows Superman has another identity. She knows it isn't Clark Kent because he stole that one. Hence, she doesn't know *who* he really is.

CAT: Stop rubbing that in.

CLARK: I really think that shouldn't be a consideration in why I tell someone. Cat knowing, I couldn't help. I wanted to tell Lois the truth after she kissed me on Trask's plane, but then I realized she was only using me. Would telling her back then solved a bunch of problems? Possibly. But it would have created a bunch of new ones.

All Cat was saying was that he shouldn't make any major life decisions without his memories. Good advice, I think. What if the reason he hadn't told Lois was that he discovered she was actually in Lex Luthor's pocket and he was using her to get to him? And he hadn't had a chance to inform Cat of this development.

Anger about having been played a fool never improves one's attitude.

And you've never been petty, unfair, and made bad decisions when feeling humiliated and angry?

I agree that the proposal came too soon. That would have been fun to see, and why FanFic is so fun. We explore those untapped potentials.

-- continuation of response to John's FDK --



CAT: Always with the excuses.

LOIS: Tell me about it.

CLARK: /tosses up hands in defeat/

PERRY: /pats him on the shoulder/ Best you figure out this now, son.

Maybe he would have if he had the memories to know that what he thinks Lois knows and what Lois knows don't always match up.

CAT: About time. And thank you for finally acknowledging my brilliance.

LOIS: Let's not go for the overkill there, Cat.

HERB: Just trying to save a life.

LOIS: I'm angry that he lied, and kept lying even after telling me that he loved me, and he broke my heart as Superman and comforted me as Clark. *I* have lots of reasons to be angry. All of which have a higher priority than him not seducing me while I was drunk on Revenge.

LOIS: Clark? Clark who? I don't see Clark around here, anywhere. Do you?

<<cough>> So, you've noticed Clark isn't the only lunkhead in my story, have you? <<cough>>

CAT: I've been a good friend all along. You just haven't agreed with my decisions. But I'm me, not you, so I make my own mistakes...er... choices.

That's 3 points. My numbers are rising.

Lois is using "past" as a euphemism for "heritage" here.

She would have thought it was an old picture of the Kents.

CANON CLARK: Tell me about it.

I don't see how else she would be able to infiltrate Luthor's organization to get the information she needs except going through the top.

CAT:

Circumstances can change.

LOIS: Oh, what's good for the goose, isn't good enough for the gander, huh?

So, he's a little more than overprotective with Lois.



CLARK:

Depends on what the lunkhead believes... so probably not.

True.

Oh, sorry, did you think this was the end of the ride?

His memories are already starting to return.

I thought you wanted Cat to do that.

No. Plus, Klein already has an established relationship with Superman, so it doubtful he'd get an invitation.

They may have originally come from other countries, but are currently located in the country. Logistics. Time. Ability to get to Metropolis. Etc. Narrow down said parameters of who was invited.

LEX: <<shrugs>> Only those who broke the rules.

Too bad that Lex knows Superman can breath in space?

Lex is good at reading between the lines.

So they're even now?

LEX: I never said explicitly that she would be a prisoner.



People go to jail for self-defense all the time. They may not be convicted, but by then it will be too late. Remember what happened to Menken.

Unless they made it look like he was pushed instead of 'jumped'.

It would also give Luthor someone else to eliminate if he thought the man talked before he jumped.

LOIS: I love Clark. I want to protect Clark. But even I have lines I will not cross, even for the man I love.

Isn't that more binding than physically?

LOIS: Join the club, bub.



Right. So, he better not shout: Hey! I know who kidnapped me! I remember in the middle of the newsroom. Good idea.

DECEASED TEMPUS: Well, duh! Even I knew he'd do that.

Clearly, you forgot that she decided to think of him as Superman when he was in the Suit, and Clark when he was dressed as Clark.

LOIS: Who I should address him as if I ever get him naked will be the problem. I think I'll stick with 'Chuck' for now.

Oh... that gives me a really naughty idea. But as I've already written the scene, I'll have to save it for a short story. It's still April isn't it?

Just one point, would it not have been more effective to use CO (carbon monoxide) air canisters. I guess CO2 when someone needs oxygen would be bad, but CO is poisonous and would kiss someone faster.

</font><hr /></blockquote><font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">If he only would learn.

I am not sure she would let him live even that much time.

Clark:Lois wanted me to talk with her in the shower . I want to hear more about this.

Well, it is unfair to be made at Clark about a kiss he did not initiate.

Well, as I said, this shows Cat does not understand Clark. Of course, Lois does not either. They both project their past relationships onto him.

I hope he opens up and tells her more soon, but I am not holding my breath.

Lois:I like it when he flies around in them too. I just wish he had trusted me enough to tell me he does so.

I guess she had a point. Still, there were a lot of things adding complications that she does not know about.

There is more to it than that. Although I guess since that explains it, Lois has little reason to try to see more unless Clark tells her the more.

You could have brought Lois with you.

Lois:Well he didn't mention he had a wife to them until we arrived at their place.

Cat:He claimed you were his wife?

Lois:Yes.

Cat:And why did you ever doubt he loved you?

But it would have showed her that he trusted her. Anyway, she was using him to get close to him. She wanted him. He needs to worry less about what incarnation, and focus more on her goal.

I think even with out his memories he knew Lois enough to realize she could be trusted.

I plead the fifthed.

Oh, sorry, I didn't realize I said the wrong one. I thought CO2 was carbon monoxide, which is what Lex put in the canisters. So, I'm guessing Carbon (C) Mon (one) Oxide (O) and Carbon(C) Di (2) Oxide (O)? Can I plead Classics Major?

LOIS:



Made some extra spare time for them.

True. That’s why the bad dude always brags to the hero dude while said hero dude is strapped to the death bench.

No yet managed to defeat the final boss of level one: Giant Kryptonian Worm of Love.

Nah, most stories with that thread really take off with the ensuing chaos once they’re wedded and bedded.

Huh. Good point. I was just thinking of the one (should be a Kerth winner) where Clark kidnapped a forgetful Lois and put her on an island with just one house/



Michael

CAT: Still! In your scenario, I'm fighting for my life while Lois is getting super loving. That's not right.

To quit while he's ahead?

I'm allowing her 24 hours to get her hands on some Kryptonite.

To stop Nightfall? Uh... don't I want her to survive?

LOIS: Did I doubt his affections? Yeah, I guess I did. Um... because he thought by saying he was my husband he figured he could score a shared bed with me... just demonstrated how he was just like all the other guys out there.

CAT: I know L.L. stands for.

LOIS: Duh! Lois Lane.

CAT: No.

LOIS: Canon Clark did.

At least one more loop-de-loop before the river cruise stage... maybe more.

LOIS: I'm not holding my breath.

Back when Superman returned after being absent due to Lois getting shot, he staged a press conference with the "how fast am I" flight test, and the boxing match with Tommy the Wrecking Ball. Dr. Klein was the scientist from STAR Labs who helped him with that demonstration and gave him the physical exam afterwards and deemed him unhurt.

So, Superman should just tell Luthor he's a four-eyed weakling? That might lead him to Clark.

LOIS: Oh, goody. More games. Just what I wanted.

LOIS: Why would think him always as Clark? It's just a place-holder name, like "Chuck" or "Superman" until he tells me his true name.

I really wanted to write it up for this month's challenge, but I've already been distracted by other short story ideas, and I don't want to fall even further behind, so it will show up later on... but don't worry, you'll absolutely hate it!

Awwwww. Thanks. Chocolate!

Really? I thought you had to look like this: [img]https://encrypted-tbn1.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcRIcZpYT9ooh6Bvlu1g3cZGpcLwM0A56ZSfVFO0Ouj_eaG4mFpZcQ[/img] to make spare time.



Was it a chocolate bunny? Because I think Lois ate it.

LOIS: What? <<There was a cuter smilie but it had a parenthesis in the URL>>

Lois doesn't know that was Kryptonite, but otherwise

LOIS: Worm of love? Do I even want to know?

Hmmmm. My stories usually just end there. I wonder if this one will be different.

Hmmmm. I don't think I've read that one. It must be on that reading list you gave me.



LEX: <<sheepishly>> But most women like those things about me, ask Mrs. Luthor.

I knew that looked wrong.

JIMMY: Nope. I'm not doing that. I'm used to starting at the bottom and working my way up in an organization, but even I... won't do that... No matter how rich the guy is... Not even for... 3rd richest guy in the whole world, you say... hmmmmmm... And I'd never *ever* have to work again?... um...

MRS COX: Oh, honey, I could tell he was rich just by the cut of his clothes.

CLARK: Jimmy, you wouldn't have to work again, because you'd be dead.

JIMMY: Right! Of course. I knew that. So, that was a 'no'!

Works too.

Awwwww… Nerd-tip: tinyurl.com: You can paste your image url in there and get a nice short one back that works in here.

CAT: I’ll take him! Gimme! I know how to strangle those

/points at planned but as of yet unnamed sequel to Missing Lois/

And this particular twist gets revealed in the first chapter. It’s kind of the story’s premise. Might even be in the blurb. In case someone doesn’t want to read about an ambiguously wed Lois and Clark alone on an island.

I second his nomination!

Who sent the ER endorphin-stacked chocolates?

Michael

Who sends out non-endorphin-stacked chocolates? Who would eat them?

LOIS: What? He loves soft and fluffy creatures. Anyway, all those kittens he saves from trees have to eat something.

…before going on a killing spree.



Michael

Okay, I could see that.
Oh, is THAT what happened in Terry's story. It all makes sense now.

CLARK: And so, Perry, I came to the conclusion that Darth Michael was working with Kyle Griffin to make my life a living hell.
PERRY: Could you explain again what this has to do with Lois letting tigers loose at that sex-addicts clinic the Superman Foundation's been supporting out in the country?

/interprets thinly-veiled hint about needing to read story/

Michael

Come on! A Terry story is always worth the read! /Is that a little less veiled for you?/

LOIS: Well, now it makes sense why he was so obsessed with me.

PERRY: Um... er... uh... Lois, you didn't have to show it to the whole newsroom.

I now. It’s just that terrible backlog

Now now Michael
