Okay. Deep breath. I have finally been able to catch up on my reading.
20 years? 20 years?
DC, your writing is both a blessing and a curse.
The BLESSING is your incredibly creative mind. Your ability to write a deeply moving and layered story is evidenced. You should be very proud of your work.
The CURSE is the excruciating detailed combination of nouns, verbs, adjectives and adverbs cemented with a few other parts of speech that paint such a vivid image of the ensuing events. This powerful writing is like watching the story on an IMax screen. Add Dolby surround sound and seat motion and you have dished up quite a horror story. I find myself breathing a bit more forcefully and calming an unsettled stomach after reading each part. I am almost afraid to open the parts.
This story reminds me of a get well card I once received. The front of the card said, “Cheer up, things could be worse.” I opened the card and inside it said “Sure enough, I cheered up and things got worse!”
As of part 9, thank the stars we are past the torture. I had begun to worry that it would never end. Hell without hope of redemption. It didn’t feel reassuring when reading Terry’s FDK. Two outstanding wordsmiths bouncing death fic / tragic accidents ideas off each other is not settling.
Having said all this, I await to see how this story goes forward. The optimist wants things to get better. The realist isn’t sure what the gifted writer will do....”
You keep on writing, I’ll keep on reading.

Aww, thanks, SupesFan, for all the kind words!
I get oddly proud of whenever I torture a character/the readers. It's fun. Or maybe I'm just really twisted. I do know the feeling of being afraid to open a new chapter (but dying to do it anyway). There have definitely been authors and stories here on the boards that have done it to me.
Just remember - the torture is over for Clark. Well, physically anyway. What's going on in his head is anyone's guess. It's his friends and family's turn to be mentally/emotionally tortured seeing what he's become and not knowing what might happen in the future.
I hope you enjoy the rest of the ride as much as I enjoyed crafting it!

I don't remember, is Luthor dead in this version? It would play into my hope that he will be ok (or at least be able to be recuperated).

Nope, Luthor is very much alive in this world. Alive and more of a problem than he was when the fic began.
