Thanks, thanks, thanks

Thanks, Nan, for giving us this part before gallivanting off to LAFF

This was a fabulous conversation between LL and LL Loved how Lori proved what she knew, and explained who she was. And I enjoyed the bits where they talked about their mutual husband <g> Favorite line:



I also liked the touch where Lori started to babble but cut herself off. Great illustration of their similarities *and* differences.

Looking forward to more... and when Tempus does come around, he won't know what hit him.

PJ

Aha! That's why Clark doesn't have any memory of Lori's visit to the past!

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

Irene
P.S. Have a great time at LAFF!

When Tempus first entered the picture in this story I had hoped, and expected, Lois and Lori would meet.

So now that the tornado twins are on the case, Tempus hasn't got a chance. But we all know that he'll cause a few bumps in the road before all is said and done.

I'm not sure that Lois would be so magnanimous, at first, when it was revealed to her that Lori is, in a sense, her replacement as Clark's wife. It would have to rankle just a bit that Clark could be able to 'move on' without her. I'm not saying that she wouldn't be able to logically adjust, and have those "I'm glad Clark won't be lonely" thoughts. But, initially, a gal's got to feel slightly depressed by the fact that Clark could remarry, even given the soulmates thing.

I guess the 'connection' between the two women is stronger than they both are able to acknowledge.

It will be interesting to see how Bernie Klein handles the onslot of a double LL.

Tank (who thinks it would be funny if Lori got her controller fixed and made it home just as Clark found the correct time with his machine and got stuck back there so Lois could have two Supermen to play with)

Oh I love these two together!

I agree with Tank, Lois took the news surprisngly well but I bought her feelings the whole way. She did sniffle!

Thanks for the fix before LAFF, have fun!

Another post...sigh...

I liked this one, and I like Tank's evil idea. I smell a Tank ending coming on...

James

Nope. I don't do Tank endings. I don't have the morbid imagination for it.

Nan

This actually explains the statement in the EDIT: fourth where one of the kids says that Lois got them all together before she died and made them promise to accept Clark's new wife. She knew she would be coming back, and paved the way for a good reception into her own family.

Nan

A great part!

Tricia

Still playing catch-up, and there's lots of potential here for fun, isn't there?

I do agree, as others have said, that Lois was amazingly blase about the whole situation. Not about the future stuff as much as the "soulmate" aspect. I'd expect her to take ridiculous-sounding scenarios in stride. But the soulmates she and Clark met were always others, not Clark himself.

Your story, so your reaction. I look forward to more.

Hazel

I know that Lois's reaction isn't what a lot of people would expect, but there's a reason for it, and we'll cover that in the next part, as soon as I finish writing it. In the meantime, thanks for the comments. Since all of you are acting as my de facto beta readers, I appreciate any and all constructive criticism.
