This was greatly done!! Congrats on your first fic!!
Very, very interesting setup! I'm going to consider this the introduction to an AU where the Happily Ever After just happens a little bit later...

Dark? Not at all. Talk about fresh and different, there are a myriad of directions this can go in. Brava!
Re: FDK: Too Late 1/1 - 01/19/24 02:32 PM
Oh boy! I am loving this. I'm so glad you decided to join us here. I wish there was more though!
Re: FDK: Too Late 1/1 - 01/19/24 03:30 PM
Off to a wonderful start, because this really can't end here. Welcome to the boards. So great to have you here. (also, ack, Lois pregnant with Luthor's child? You sure she didn't get a nightly visit from an alien who didn't know what he was doing?)
Re: FDK: Too Late 1/1 - 01/19/24 09:45 PM
ahh, I'll see if I can do the quotey thing. 
Me too! IDK why...
I feel the same!!
Thanks! Yeah, I've tried writing more...but idk.
Thanks! Maybe there will be more. But I doubt it. 
I've tried writing more and plotted out a whole bunch of things I would include but I creeped myself out and ultimately couldn't figure out how to get rid of you-know-who (I'm not good at A-plotty stuff).
I know, gross.
Let's hope that's what happened.
Yes! I love that idea! Thanks for reading!

Oh wow, I definitely want to read more! When you said "dark" I thought someone would be dead, but this is a fabulous twist. It's scary, there are so many directions and unknowns, but that's also amazing! So well done, bravo!
Re: FDK: Too Late 1/1 - 01/22/24 05:12 PM
Hi 90stvfangirl!
Welcome! So great to see you posting here, too
There was already that warning about a sad ending on Discord. So, I might be scared while reading 
Is this the pilot? Or a grown-up Lois worrying about fresh blood?
Pilot. With a twist!
PERRY: The suits told me I had to make changes. The insurance premiums were through the roof. Lois hunting stories was no longer sustainable.
Very cute style 
Ohhhhh! Next GTA, you’ll join us in playing, right?
who did they drag out of Smallville? Or is Clark too late and Lois is married to Lex?
It does sound like Lex.
/points again at previously mentioned insurance premiums /
DANIEL: Working as a news anchor is much safer.
Yes, especially when she brings back the inside scoop.
Hey!
Also, No one died.
We had other stories that started out like that. Except Lois wasn’t pregnant. Zoomway even wrote a fun one in the wee early days. You just need to get over the squick factor of 50 y/o Lex with a 25 y/o Lois.
Great debut now, about that sequel/continuation everyone is pestering you about…
Michael

Lois scowled across the desk at her boss. “I feel like I’m being replaced.”

Lois opened her mouth to protest.
“I said if, Lois.”

“Lois, you’re the best reporter I’ve got, you know that! But we both know that in another couple of weeks you’re going to have another priority.”
Lois patted her mid-section and scowled once again. “You sound like my husband.”

Lois sighed wearily. “You still can’t accept him? Even now, that I’m…” She looked down at her huge belly. “Well…”

“You trust me, right? My judgment?” Lois tried not to sound hurt.
Quote
“He wants me to work at LNN, you know? I keep turning him down, but maybe…” Lois trailed off, absently rubbing at her swollen belly. “Maybe after I have the baby,” she finished quietly.
DANIEL: Working as a news anchor is much safer.

The new guy looked like a deer in headlights, backing up into the coffee machine, smiling politely as Cat advanced on him.
Quote
Perry stood, reaching out to touch her arm gently. “You will always have a place here, Lois. You know that.”
Quote
Lois shook her head, pulling away from Perry. “What’s this guy’s name again? Kent?”
“Clark. Clark Kent.”
The end?
(sorry…)
“Clark. Clark Kent.”

Ugh, yeah the squick factor...which is why I don't think I could continue...most of it is mapped out in my brain though so maybe?
Thanks for the comments!

Andreia's right! H.G. Wells can fix almost anything! Hey wait, what about Utopia?

HG is tied up elsewhere unfortunately…
I had a much darker story idea.
But IDK. Might have to get Lex to throw himself off a building or something. We know he’s not opposed to that.
Re: FDK: Too Late 1/1 - 01/30/24 06:12 PM
Congrats on your first fic here! 
Oh, wow, that's an amazing start! I wouldn't have thought this of Perry, but I like what this opens up! Really heightens the stakes!
Oh, this is so sad - her surrogate dad is really suffering under this wound.
If Perry's sus, then Lex isn't above board on this one - it's really insidious to think that the baby is another way for Lex to trap her.
I just love your Perry!
I see that question mark! Let's move right along into Chapter 2. 
Such an interesting premise! I'd love to see how (if?) our favorite soulmates get out of this one! We know that there's a balance, so they don't necessarily end up together in every lifetime!

Perry’s face softened, and he shook his head sadly. “Darlin, do we really need to do this again?”

“Maybe after I have the baby,” she finished quietly.
