Nice wall you're hiding behind .

I'm keeping up. Not sure where Lois is - except with Dan is never good... And Clark? Where is Clark? Will the 'memory' of the 'daydream' of being with Clark help Lois not make the same mistakes with Claude etc. I know she thought 'ick' but as she got older would the memory change? And why would they be there together? Tempus hoping she did get pregnant? That they wouldn't be able to resist? Or something else? Was there a quake with Andrus and friends?

Hmmm... think we need the next part now so that we can find out!

Works for me. Deals with my objections. And establishes a connection (even if it is just a daydream) between L&C's younger selves.

But... now Lois is out with Dan? How odd. I wonder what that means. And when is Clark? Same time period, different place? Or somewhen else entirely?

I guess we'll see soon...

Whew, at least someone is the voice of reason. I like that it ended up being a daydream, with neither of them being the wiser.. yet. I do wonder what changes it wrought for Lois's psyche, though. And not Dan! Eek!

Yay! We got to see some of the immediate aftermath of Lois and Clark mucking around with their history! Those poor teenagers must be so confused. I can just see the conversation between Lana and Clark.

"Clark, I can't believe you just went off with that girl, when you were supposed to be here with me!"

"Girl, what girl? You mean she was real?!"

We still don't know the long term effects of this encounter, though. Now, those could definitely be interesting.

As for Lois on a date with Dan, all she should have to do now is point him in the direction of Mayson, right?

I think I finally figured out what's causing these jumps. Way back in Part 1, you wrote:
Clearly, Herb is accidentally sending them jumping all over the place because he's not paying attention to what he's doing!

No? Well, that's my theory until you tell me otherwise.

Have they left him out in the hallway all this time? Poor Herb must be so bored.

Wow ML,

You really are mucking about with Lois and Clark.

Great that Lois and Clark both believe they've had a day dream, but yes, I wonder if Lana did mention her 'rival' to Clark.

And will future Lois actually sleep with Claude now? Actually, perhaps in time the fantasy will fade, but she might not be so cut up about Claude's dastardly deed because she'd have the past memory of her fantasy boy with which to compare his prowess as a lover.

Maybe not, but this jumping about in time gets confusing. I'm not sure I'd be able to keep things straight in my head. So, congratulations to you for doing this so well.

I wonder how this Lois will treat Dan. Looking forward to the next part.

WOW, WOW, WOW! Now, why are you hiding behind that wall, hm?

This is so great - drop off the boards for three days because you're so busy with real life that you can't even get to your computer, and ML posts THREE more very exciting episodes!

Keep it up!

mmouse

Is it safe to come out from behind my wall yet?

Okay, looks safe enough in here at the moment .

Actually, Noetal, I see the conversation going a little more like this

"Clark, I can't believe you just went off with that girl when you were supposed to be here with me!"

"What are you talking about, Lana? I didn't go off with any girl." Oh, god, she knew! She knew he'd been fantasizing about another girl! How did she do that? Did he have 'Sexual Fantasy' written across his forhead. Just on the off chance that he did, he reached up, pulling his hair down on his forehead.

He knew she was talking, or perhaps it was more like a lecture, but he wasn't thinking about what she was saying. Instead, when he got to his tent, he turned towards her, interupting her. "Now, it's getting late. I think I'm going to turn in."

"You going to find her again, aren't you?" Lana said accusingly.

Oh, man, he hoped so. "Don't talk crazy," he said before quickly heading into his tent. Lana was seriously scary. How did she do that? How did she know he was thinking about someone else? Maybe it would be best if he ended their relationship - before she caught him thinking about... other things as well.

The end.

Anyway, everyone, I notice that one of the themes of this thread seems to be that people are wondering how many changes will continue long term. Well, I promise to tell you exactly how many changes Lois and Clark will have made to the series by the end of this story. I'll even tell you what they are (in case you're interested). I could tell you now, but that would give too much away .

As for more... well, try back later today.

ML

ML!

Why is that hillarious snippet here in the review responses instead of in the story where it belongs?
