Hi,

Great part!

Well, this part might be short, but it's heavy on angst. And, honestly, I couldn't stand much more in one single part, so it's just perfect, if you ask me.

Bruce Willis? Not Wayne? Bad association, Batboy!

I thought you were a fan of the old, slightly funny Batman. This one is more like the cold-blooded type from recent publications. Anyway, as much as I hate it, he *is* right. You can't sacrifice thousands or even millions to have a chance to save one.

Can't wait for the conclusion. Maybe Clara is impervious to both earthite and kryptonite, being neither fish nor fowl, so to speak?

Oooh! A new part!

ROFL!!!! Bruce and Wayne. I'm dying of laughter!

Ann? Can I ask whose voice he has? So I can imagine the pleasant male voice properly, you know... Or did you imagine he was someone other than one of the actors who played him?

YAY! and YAY! And... Oh NOOOOO! ...but, you know... YAY!!!

GRRRRRRRRR!!!! You know... I don't want to know whose pleasant male voice he has anymore. Couldn't care less! Mean old bat!

Ann - I loved this part! The way you wrote the whole part with the globe was just brilliant! I hope you come back real soon with the rest!

Dr. Klein is going to make Clara a lead-lined suit so she can fly out into space with a missile and destroy the ship, after rescuing her father first!

Can't wait for the next part!

As I'm sure Ann will tell us, just blowing up something in space that's headed your way doesn't mean that bits and pieces of it won't continue on the same path, or close enough to the same path so that they are captured within the gravity well of the destination mass. I'd guess that Clara would be susceptible to both the Kryptonite and the Earthite, so sending her wouldn't be the best idea they could have. (That's an interesting term, by the way. Is it from the older Superman comics?) So Batman's suggestion probably won't be adopted for any number of reasons, Superman's survival being just one.

But unanswered are these questions. Why was Kal-El communicating over this Kryptonian link? Why did Wayne Irig have it instead of his parents or Lois? And why, oh why did Clark talk to Clara and not someone else? Does he now know that he's a daddy, or is that the real reason he's on his way back?

Very nice clifhanger, Ann. We have warm fuzzies, a revelation or two (or three, if you count a suddenly avaricious Wayne Irig), a pending WHAM, and some forthcoming scenes between Lois and Clark which promise to be - ahem - interesting.

I know you're busy with school, but if you could fit the rest of the story into your life without shortchanging the actual important stuff, I know I'd read it. And I'd bet that lots of others would, too.

Sorry I haven't answered until now, people! Please understand that I love reading your feedback!

As for whose voice Batman uses when he's speaking... uh, why don't you choose for yourself? Since I have only ever watched one Batman movie, the first one, and I don't remember much of it (and certainly not Batman's voice), why don't you choose your favorite Batman actor and give my Batman his voice? And then you can tell me whose voice you picked!

Eeehh.. you've changed your mind about imagining Batman's voice? Oh well. Just because Batman wants to save the Earth by destroying Clark's ship and kill Clark?

And thank you, thank you for telling me you loved this part!

Ann

Oh, Ann, first I want to apologize for being so terribly late with feedback. I've just been so darn tired that my reading has greatly suffered.


ROFLOL!!


I loved the Batman vanishing act.


Darn it all! I was hoping for Clark.


What is it!?

Ah-ha!


Great part. I loved it.

Glad you liked my getting rid of the custard, Nancy! And I'm glad you liked the chapter!

Ann
