Hi Vic!
Clark logged into his online profile and was about to push the cancel button when he noticed something.
Interests: Animals
Well…he does have a soft spot for mad dogs.
Easy Listening Music! Where’d she get that idea. I have a wide interest in different music. And Romantic Movies? When’s the last time we watched one? Sports movies, or Action movies would have been better.
LOIS: He always watches romantic movies with me. Or Lethal Weapon.
Your Ideal Mate: Sweet and gentle personality, likes cooking, charity interests, ...
Sounds like the antithesis to Lois. Is she *trying* to sabotage her relationship prospects?
He stood.
It’s now or never.
Help!
Clark whipped his head around in the direction of the sound. Not now! He gritted his teeth and looked back to Lois.
“Um, Lois, you want a coffee?” he asked and then left without waiting for an answer.
Did he just leave his computer unlocked and the dating site up? Will Ralph fiddle with the profile and happen to make Clark want a bossy nag-queen with a short fuse?
*Clark, you idiot. Find a woman before I go stir crazy and jump you myself.*
And you wonder why I keep mentioning the dark side
He HAD found a woman. Jenny.
Correction. *Lois* had found him a woman. Jenny.
He hoped Lois would accept his explanation of getting caught talking to Eduardo, then getting stuck in the elevator, and then ending up on the wrong floor, and then deciding to walk back down the floors only to find the door from the stairwell jammed shut.
Sounds…plausible.
LOIS: More believable than some of his other excuses.
gloopy-acid-matter creature which had destroyed half a shopping mall on the other end of Metropolis.
Lex got out again?
Okay, Kent. You just dealt with a mutated acid monster, you can talk to Lois.
Yes, but he didn’t want to make kissy-face with the mutated acid monster.
RALPH: Oh, you *so* want to kiss Lois.
Why can’t you mention a simple Pact to the lady sat across from you?
Because living, breathing Kryptonite scares him senseless?
The cup crushed in his hands causing boiling hot coffee to spew out.
So…oops? Will he be able to sue the coffee stand for $300,000?
“Um, run to the bathroom, I’ll call for first aid help. We may need to take you to hospital.”
She trying to make it into a frontpage story?
Daily Planet reporter horribly burned in line of duty
Suddenly, he could hold in his frustration no more.
“How come you haven’t mentioned The Pact?” he asked.
Clark was pretty sure that he’d never seen her look quite as scared ever before, even when saving her from The Prankster’s ‘Ride of Doom’ two years ago.
Well…she didn’t *know* Kyle had cut her breaklines until they put her car into the shop after she nicked another car during a slide’n’park maneuver.
LOIS: Red traffic lines are merely a suggestion and a hint to be more alert for traffic.
She turned back suddenly, gesturing around with her coffee soaked scarf. “You see, I’m not ... single anymore.”
“I ... couldn’t tell you. I couldn’t tell anyone. You see he asked me to keep it secret. We can’t go through with The Pact anymore. I’m in a relationship.”
She dating Lex again?
“Superman,” she replied and gave a little laugh and smile.
Liar liar panties on fire!
Clark collapsed back into the chair stunned. Or was that relieved? She isn’t seeing anyone. But why fabricate a relationship with Superman?
a) She is mentally unstable.
b) She really doesn’t want Clark.
c) We have another Cloneman situation on our hands.
I never thought he’d actually believe me. And even so, why isn’t he interrogating me on the details?
Because he can get the dirty details from his best bud, Superman!
Okay, Clark knows The Pact is now off
And how am I going to deal with seeing him lovely-dovey with Jenny?
Clark’s Kryptonian brain could think at light-speed but that was of no help in figuring out the bewildering Lois Lane.
I recommend using a quantum computer.
SPOCK: Humans are notoriously illogical, but Lois Lane makes Cpt. Kirk appear Vulcan.
**He told me not to tell anyone.**
**But I know him really well, he would have told me.**
**No, he said he didn’t even want you to know.**
He could do a striptease for her?
And how could he then reply? I know you’re lying because I’m Superman?
LOIS:

She wants out? I’ll let her out.
And he clicked the button.
So…
and
?
Plus, midpoint! This will so be the Lois reveal, right? Or will they get paired with Dan and Mayson? Lex and Lana?
