FDK: When Larry Met Charlie, pt 22 - Lois & Clark Fanfic Message Boards

Yay! New smoochies!!!!

PJ

Very nice section, Wendy! Not a lot more that we could ask for...Lex is under arrest, and SMOOCHIES!!!!!

Like Pam said, it was very natural to have them kiss there - worked well.

What a kiss:

Quote

“We make a great team,” she told him.

“Fantastic.” His arms tightened around her, and she slid her own arms up and around his neck. She met his gaze with hers, enjoying the way his brown eyes sparkled with delight and happiness. Yes, they were a great team.

And suddenly their surroundings seemed to fade, and Clark’s eyes lost that excited light and turned darker, more intense. And Lois felt a sense of tension growing deep inside her, as if she was waiting with anticipation for something to happen...

...and, as her chin tilted up towards Clark almost of its own accord, and he lowered his head to meet her, she knew what it was.

Their lips touched. And lightning struck. And Lois knew that their fevered, desperate kisses in the EPRAD shed hadn’t just been the result of a near-death encounter. Clark Kent’s kisses really had the power to stir her as no other man’s ever had.

The kiss grew deeper within seconds, both eager to know the other and unable to countenance delay. Her lips were parted beneath his, and she was exploring him just as frantically as he was her. Her knees felt weak, and she clung to him, wanting - needing - to get closer still. One of his hands had slid up her back and was holding her head, fingers combing through the strands of her hair. She pulled her arms back from around his neck, sliding her palms up to caress his face, uncaring about the rasp of stubble which scratched her; just needing to be closer to him.

And she was lost. Tumbling headlong into lust - or even into love - with Clark Kent.

Now, what's left?

Gabriele

Oh wow!! More smoochies! And what super ones too...

Hopefully this will help ease some of Clark's fears that he will always be alone because of his "alienness". However, I assume that Wendy introduced the Starman incident with Lana as more than just a passing reference, so I don't think we've heard the end of that yet. Remember this moment, Clark...

So nice to see Lex get his comeuppance. And very nice banter with Henderson; glad that Lois didn't slip up there.

Quote

“Yet,” she agreed, then gave him a wink. “Just wait until I write the exclusive on Superman. That will knock all the others into the shade!”

Hasn't it occurred to Lois that Clark might want to share the byline? Although it looks like this whole Superman thing isn't going to be perfectly smooth sailing either...

KathyM

Hey...

What a kiss....

Good instalment, it's always nice to see Luthor get his comeuppance.

Okay, okay, so they kissed. It's just a set up gentle readers. Lulling you into a feeling of false security. Nothing helps a coming wham better than those waffy moments that fool the reader. Lois may be thinking nice things about Clark right now, but we all know that it can't last. Something has to happen. A real big wham, perhaps?

Tank (who has just about given up hope on the haircut angle)

I caught up with this story a few parts ago, but RL made it impossible to have the time and figure out something smart to say about your story...

(who only got that part as a guy because of her dialect the character required - only one in the class - and the ability to walk like a man... no other reason at all. She is very feminine...really!

)

Hi,

Great part.

Lois recognize Clarks habilities as reporter.

Quote

Lois shrugged, untroubled by the familiar banter with the detective; they had a long relationship which, although was characterised by barbs and caustic exchanges, was securely based on mutual trust and respect. “I’ve been in jail before now.”

She almost felt the raise of eyebrows on Clark’s face. “You can fill me in on that later,” he said, before turning to Henderson. “Okay, what can you tell us for now? What will the charges be?”

“Can’t you let us charge him first?” Henderson said sardonically. “Okay, it’s no secret that we’ll be charging him with attempted murder and conspiracy to murder. Probably Murder One as well, if we can tie him to Baines’ death. And I’ll probably manage to slip in something about threatening and attempted abduction of a police officer too.”

He got the information better than Lois.

More soon, please.

MAF

I loved this, as usual - now where's the next part?

Melisma (the insatiable, here under her Rock

Yay!

Smoochies all around!

And she thinks she'll take a permanent partner to boot!! See what true love can do to Lois Lane?

Well, now I'm thinking that this can take lots of directions (including wrap up and end :p ). We can see the creation of Super'man'; we can get a Tank-sized miscommunication wham going; Lex can seek revenge from prison (since we know that it can't hold him)...so what's it gonna be?

More soon, please.

Sherry

Great installment, Wendy! I'm really looking forward to more.

Irene

This was wonderful! Is there anywhere that I can find the first 21 parts?

Caroline

You can find the TOC (Table of Contents), with links to all the other parts, here: http://www.lcficmbs.com/ubb/ultimatebb.php?ubb=get_topic;f=6;t=000001

BTW, the TOC section of this board is a great resource for catching up with all the fic that you may have missed. Most authors seem to think that it's most used by people who are reading the multi-part works, but I find I appreciate it when the author posts a TOC for a single-part fic just as well, because then I don't have to troll through 50 pages of story parts, discussion, et all, looking for that one elusive story that I haven't read yet!

Good luck

Melisma (going back into hiding here under her Rock)

Thanks Melisma!!

Caroline (who hurries off to find the rest)

No problem, Caroline

I'm always willing to help FoLCs discover (or rediscover) the writing genius that is Wendy Richards, the Great and Awesome Author...

Oh, and welcome to the boards

Melisma (running like the wind, here under her Rock... from Wendy, of course

)

Yup. Time to join Club Smoochie here and do a victory dance!

I smell angst if there are a lot more parts coming. Lex Luthor's middle name is revenge.

Jen

But yet another great installment Wendy

)

Yep, another great section, Wendy.

I like this part very much. Lovely banter with Henderson, nice scene with Luthor (we probably haven't seen the last of him yet) and the scene where they talk about the name of Superman! Very funny!

And then there were SMOOCHIES!!!

More please, Wendy, with the angst and whams and smoochies.

Saskia (seriously lacking inspiration today for my usual fdk <g>)

Quote

“Not yet,” she told him with a grin. “But you will be. That’s a given. Just stick with me, kid, and you’ll go far,” she drawled.

“As far as the nearest clink, if you’re not careful, Lane,” Henderson commented with a flash of humour. “I just know that one of these days I’m going to get a call from Perry White - or maybe Kent here - telling me that you’re locked up for interfering in police business or breaking and entering. And I’m looking forward to seeing you with bars across your face, you know.”

Wendy

WOW! A wonderful part!

I can't wait to read the next part. I'm looking forward to the first appearance of Superman.

Tricia

Ack, I didn't comment on this last night! I think I was too happy about the smoochies to remember to comment

.

Very nice! I am so happy about the smoochies

Great job Wendy. Loved the Kiss and the shredded wheat comment LOL! I like your version of henderson too. Looking forward to more soon. Laura

Nice Part!! Sorry I haven't replyed lately but RL has kept me busy. The story is a nice way to have superman come to life. Its nice that Lois knows and helps him come up with the name and costume. Its a very good story. MORE SOON PLEASE. Needs to be Longer!! lol

Hey Wendy! Just wanted to drop a quick note to say that I'm still loving and enjoying this story very much. Like everyone else, I was delighted to see some (very well-written

) L&C interaction (read: smoochies [g]).

Can't wait to see more! Soon, I hope!

Tracey

Wendy
I'm with the others here
Smoochies and Lex under arrest
more soon please
merry

Hooray!! Smoochies!!!

I love how they're feeling so at ease and comfortable with each other now and how she takes control on the naming of Superman.

More soon! And more smoochies too!!

Missy

Wendy, count me in with everyone - this part was wonderful. The smoochies were LOVELY - thank you.

Can't wait for more. How about posting it now?

Vicki (who's still buried in proposals - aaack)

Hello!

That was great.

Post more soon.

See ya.

AnnaBtG.

I was also planning on waiting until all the parts of this story were done, but I made the serious mistake of reading Part 1 last night just to see what the story was about. Just wanted to read one or two paragraphs, of course. Next thing I know, I'm reading Parts 2-22 one right after the other. Now I'm sucked in like everybody else, waiting in anticipation for the next part to be posted.

WHOA!!!

Hmmm.... <g>

(Glad you liked them, anyway!)

And a request:

Quote

more smoochies!!

The problem with that, Missy, is that I wouldn’t want to become too predictable, now would I?

As for WHAMs... wait and see. Actually, lots of people are speculating that there could be danger to come, not least from a certain criminal who has just been arrested:

Quote

Lex can seek revenge from prison (since we know that it can't hold him)

Quote

Bye, bye Luthor! Or is it? You can bet that as soon as he escapes (always a given), he'll go after L&C since his ego won't allow anyone to have the last word.

Quote

I smell angst if there are a lot more parts coming. Lex Luthor's middle name is revenge.

Quote

How about Luthor still having a weapon (we're talking Luthor, so anything's possible) and attacking Lois?

Well, all that remains to be seen - by your author just as much as you! So watch this space. As Sherry said, anything can happen.

And hey, many thanks to those who delurked this time! Caroline, I hope the ToC helped, and thanks, Melisma, for posting the link. Jaz, you’re welcome in my comment folder any time!

Longer? I dunno; it’s already over 72,000 words and I’m itching to get to other stories. But we’ll see!

Pel, welcome! I’m impressed that you read all the way through from the ToC! LOL at your performance as a man. It can be done convincingly, as you and Lois know <g>

Quote

Third, what I like so much about this story, are all the twists you've made in the pilot, starting off with Lois meeting Clark during the car theft story - and from there you sent them both on a bumpy road, even showing us the bad side of Lois, which just about made her one of the meanest b****es in fanfic history of her character, then you almost let Luthor kill her, Lois discovered Clark's secret - and we're off to a rush start in their relationship.

LOL! She was a little cruel, yes. But she’s been making up for it more recently, I hope. I love writing twists on established episodes, which is why I tend to describe stories of mine which take off from episodes as adaptations, not rewrites; I like having the freedom to do the unexpected. Just because this stems from the Pilot and has some Pilot elements in it, for example, that doesn’t mean that there’ll be a dramatic rescue at the Messenger.

Anyway I hope you continue to find this enjoyable as it draws to a conclusion!

And Roger (Me), welcome too!

Quote

As usual, great story Wendy! I like stories where they meet before Clark comes to work for the Daily Planet because it allows the two of them to build and recognize a serious attraction between the two of them before the status of "work colleague" scares off Lois. In this case, there was just enough attraction acquired beforehand to keep her from being totally scared off.

Thanks, Roger! Yes, alternate beginning stories are fun, and I think that, by having Lois already attracted to Clark before she discovered he was a reporter, there was less excuse for her to deny any interest in him. Plus Superman never appeared on the scene to distract her. <g> At least, not in the sense he did in the Pilot.

Quote

As for this wonderful kiss, others have mentioned how natural this flows from their emotional state. It works well because it's the only plausible way to sneak in those great smoochies When not on an emotional high, these two just don't have it in them to make a move.

LOL! And thanks!!

Saskia, Saskia...

I want more angst and Whams!! Because of course you missed some great oppertunities to insert whams. How about Luthor still having a weapon (we're talking Luthor, so anything's possible) and attacking Lois? Or they are so busy with kissing they fall of the roof? Or something else? If I can think of them for almost every part by now, surely you can too! And write them as well.

Stop sneaking into my hard drive!!

I know that I haven’t done your comments anything like sufficient justice here, but I do really appreciate every one of them. Thank you all very much, Pam, Jill, Gabriele, Kathy, Meni, Tank, Pel, Maria, Sherry, Melisma, Irene, Caroline, Jen, S, Saskia, José, Alicia, Tricia, Laura, Jaz, Tracey, Merry, Missy, Vicki, Anna and Roger. Much appreciated!!!

Part 23 coming up soon.

Wendy

Hi Wendy!

The best thing was the smooches!!!!!!!!!!!

The Lois and Lex interaction was pretty good too. I could really see Lois acting that way and of course her talk with Henderson too.....typical Lois :rolleyes:

Well done! /me realized Wendy just post part 23 so she will run to read it

Raquel (who really hopes her post won't disappear this time since she enjoyed the time she spent writing it

)
