Woohoo! New part!

Back later with FDK.

Well... I’m back. But I’m staring blankly at the screen, trying to figure what I can write after this rollercoaster. whinging I’m broken to pieces!

You didn’t even let them enjoy their honeymoon! Please, DJ, give them a break!

You’ve messed up their honeymoon so much that just a nfic part could make up for it. <hint, hint> wink

I hope you come back soon, or... [Linked Image] [Linked Image]

Andreia
Some wedding night! Shame! What some people make that poor couple endure on these boards. At least there wasn't that dramatic hospital scene I was secretly hoping for - will have to revisit SR for some suit-being-pulled-off-magnificent-chest action. drool

Could Clark have a serum-induced kidney stone? Will he be forced to pee out the remaining Kryptonite in solid form? OUCH. devil

PS. I smell an nfic honeymoon scene, clothes and all! Make Sue write it if you're not in the mood. It's not like she has anything else to do. laugh
ohmygod .... first such a beautiful wedding [Linked Image] *sigh*, not to forget the things in between [Linked Image] laugh and then you do the most horrible thing you probably could think of, huh?! jawdrop

I really hope you don't let us wait too long for the happy (!) ending (I insist on reading a happy ending , ok?!)
razz That's the closest smiley that will glare at you, LOL.

Again, perfect, perfect, perfect, and BAM! Clark's out cold on the floor. I can picture all kinds of horrible scenarios, but some how I think you'll redeem yourself. wink

JD
Reading the part, I have relife. mecry

The end of part have been my astonishment. So they won't have happiness easily. I'm sad for it(in a way I want to see their more difficult predicament and they find a way out of trouble. devil )

I expect next part.

(I'm sorry for my naughty English. But for the while I read L&C fanfic writer's good work. Because I'm so funny, happy for them, I dare write feedbacks. blush )
Okay, DJ...I don't have time for your foolishness! I'm trying to study and you go and pull this.

I'm gonna say that it is Kryptonite leaving Clark's body in the form of something like a kidney stone...my best nursing judgement. It is sort of the scenario that presents when one expels one.

What a "perfect" wedding. It was beautiful! Even Ellen and Sam were there and happy.

Quote
“Lois,” he breathed into her hair. “God, I want you. I’ve wanted you for so long.” He lifted her into his arms again and carried her into the bedroom, laying her gently on the bed. He followed her down to the bed, kissing any skin that was exposed to him until his lips finally found hers. “I’ve waited for this moment...”

“*We’ve* waited for this moment,” she amended. “And I don’t want to wait any longer...”
This was just so beautiful even if it was in the midst of passion. It was just a realization for both of them.
Quote
Lois lay on the bed, her chest still heaving from the exertion and her mind and body still reeling from the unfathomably intense sensations. Clark might have been the virgin, but she hadn’t ever felt anything like that before. She looked over at him lying next to her, his face attractively flushed, and suppressed a giggle. They hadn’t even managed to make it completely out of their wedding attire first. All this time, she had daydreamed about undressing Clark again, but they hadn’t made it that far...

She almost laughed out loud. Actually, they had made it much farther. “Wanna try it again? Maybe without clothing this time?” she asked playfully.
I'm sure that there were kinks to work out but the mere fact that they love each other made it the most wonderful experience that Lois and Clark have ever had. It's like they have shared their souls with each other.

Now that the urgency has passed...they didn't even get totally undressed the first time...they can slowly make passionate love.
Quote
Clark covered his mouth. “I’m gonna be sick!” he mumbled against his hand.

Lois grabbed the small trash can next to his sink and held it under his chin. He grabbed hold of it and wretched into it, his body heaving violently.

When it passed, Clark slid slowly to the floor and leaned his head against the wall beside him, breathing heavily for a few seconds. “No... please, no...” he moaned, his body squirming. Then he threw up again into the trash-can.

Lois grabbed a washcloth and wet it with cool water. She knelt down beside him, patting his face with it. “What can I do? Are you just sick or is it something more serious?”

“I... don’t know...” he ground out. “There was... blood... in my urine.”

Blood in his urine? Lois felt her blood run cold. That was definitely serious.

Clark let out another cry and slumped over to the floor, clutching at his back and side. “Oh, it hurts!”

Lois felt tears come to her eyes and fear grip her heart as she watched her husband - the strongest man in the world - curled up in a fetal position, writhing and moaning in pain.

“Hold on, Clark,” she pleaded. “I’ll be right back. I’m gonna call Dr. Klein.” As she started to stand up, he reached out and grabbed her hand.

“Lois...”

“What?” she asked with a shaky voice.
DJ, this had better be a "kryptonite stone"! evil

~Sheila
Never ever apologize for posting a long part!

Just know that we will expect you to keep that up if you do that too often...

No!!!! NOOOOOO!!!! Nononono!!!!!

Clark is dying???? Again??? For real???

Quote
Clark spun and used his body to shield Lois from the three bullets that the thug fired at them.

Lois felt like her heart was being ripped from her when Clark's body jerked at each bullet as they hit his chest.

&#8220;No!&#8221; she screamed. Clark moaned and began to slide out of her arms.

&#8220;Now you've done it!&#8221; one of the other thugs grunted as he pulled himself up from the ground. &#8220;The police will be after us for sure now. I didn't sign up for no murder rap.&#8221; He took off running down the street and was joined by his two wounded companions.

The thug who had shot the gun was staring in disbelief as Clark slumped to the ground. His face paled and he stumbled off down the street after the others.

Lois dropped down beside Clark. &#8220;No,&#8221; she whimpered. &#8220;Clark?&#8221; She shook him. &#8220;Clark!&#8221;
That's how part twenty ended, and we thought you had killed Clark. Well, luckily for you, young lady, you hadn't (crosses arms and taps foot). Clark was not seriously hurt at all...

Quote
Three bullets slid down his chest, leaving behind them three ugly, red welts. She put her fingers to the swollen, bruised skin and pressed against it. There was no blood.

&#8220;Ouch,&#8221; Clark complained. &#8220;I might not be shot, but that still hurts.&#8221;
Whew! Or...

[Linked Image]

(By the way, though, since I am the chairperson of the SPCBC - the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Buttons on Shirts - I must protest against this:

Quote
Feeling no compassion for the buttons on his shirt, she ripped it open.
razz End of parenthesis >)

Okay, so we thought Clark was all right, didn't we? So what did you throw in our faces then, DJ? Huh? Huh?

Quote
Lois watched as Clark sat up and turned to gather her in his arms before standing up with her. She wrapped her arms around his neck and snuggled against him, wanting never to let go. But Clark faltered suddenly, almost dropping her.

&#8220;Clark?&#8221; Lois scrambled out of his arms anxiously and watched as he doubled over, resting his hands against his knees. &#8220;Honey, what's wrong?&#8221;

&#8220;I don't know,&#8221; he answered woozily. &#8220;I just feel really weak all of a sudden.&#8221;

&#8220;Is your wound hurting?&#8221; she asked, grabbing for his shirt.

&#8220;I don't know. I don't think so,&#8221; he wheezed.

She pulled his open shirt back and examined his side. It appeared to be okay. She then checked the area where he had been shot and it, too, seemed all right. Yet, she could tell Clark was in obvious pain.

&#8220;Do you think you can make it back to your apartment?&#8221; she asked, glancing around the street.

&#8220;No,&#8221; he admitted. &#8220;I'm sorry. I just feel so weak.&#8221; He went down on his knees and then sat down on the ground. &#8220;I don't even have the strength to stand.&#8221;

Okay, Dr. Klein to the rescue - or at least, Dr. Klein to provide the explanation:

Quote
&#8220;If you'll remember,&#8221; Dr. Klein continued, a little perturbed by her outburst, &#8220;I told you that Superman's body would be working overtime to expel the remaining particles of Kryptonite from his system.&#8221;

&#8220;Yes,&#8221; she admitted. He had told them that.

&#8220;Then you should understand that it's probably taking a lot of his strength and energy to fight, and hopefully expel, the invading poison in his system.&#8221; Dr. Klein shook his head disapprovingly. &#8220;He shouldn't be trying to use any of his powers right now because it obviously drains him too much. Any energy reserves that he had built up, he probably used on that little rescue. He should be resting as much as he possibly can.&#8221;
Hmmmm...<mutter> <grumble> Okay....

Or maybe... Dr. Klein to the rescue after all:

Quote
&#8220;Now, on that point,&#8221; Dr. Klein continued, &#8220;I think I've got something that might help.&#8221; He walked over to the vault, went inside, and then came back out a few seconds later with a vial of liquid and a syringe.

Not another needle, Clark lamented, wincing at the thought.

&#8220;This is an antidote of sorts,&#8221; Klein explained, tilting the bottle to indicate the liquid inside. &#8220;Or actually... maybe you would call it an anti-serum... Or perhaps a... vaccine?&#8221; he mumbled, staring at the vial. &#8220;You can't really call it anti-venom...&#8221;
A vaccine? A cure for Kryptonite poisoning? hyper

<pant>

Quote
&#8220;You understand, though, that this will be extremely experimental. I haven't exactly had any other Kryptonians that I could do research on.
Experimental. Now that sounds reassuring. :rolleyes:

Anyway, Clark got better, and Clark and Lois had a beautiful wedding. You surely made us feel that both of them looked stunning, and I was glad that both Sam and Ellen were there (and sitting together, to boot), and I loved that Perry married them! Ah, Perry!!! rotflol

(Of course, I didn't much like that Sam and Ellen "gave Lois away" as if she was a piece of property. Did Martha and Jonathan give away Clark?)

And, hmmm, just to postpone the horror awaiting us - you had me giggling just a little at the beginning of this part, when Lois found out that she was missing a small chunk of her hair. For a moment there I thought you would just briefly veer into Tank territory and give us a Lois haircut! laugh Ah, well, better not - there is no way to be sure of Lois and Clark's health and well-being - or even survival - in a Tank story... frown

But then what did you do, DJ??? Did you turn this into a Tank story after all? A Tank story without the fun, the haircut, but complete with the deathly Tank ending???

Quote
<...For as long as we both shall live...>

No. It was too soon. Their life together had barely begun. It wasn't enough.

But would it ever be enough? He would never want to leave her, or her to leave him... even when they were old and gray. But if he had to leave this world, at least he would die knowing that he had found happiness. Not everyone could say that.

A calm slowly overcame him - his brain's reaction to the intensity of the pain taking over and blocking his cognizant reception of it. He was losing consciousness.

Fight, he told himself. Fight for Lois.

But he couldn't. The room was fading in and out. He could hear Lois's voice coming from far off and he wanted to call out to her, but he couldn't. It was just too hard &#8211; it hurt too much. His eyes rolled back into the darkness and try as he might, he couldn't open them again.
Nooooo!!!! Nonononononono!!!! [Linked Image]

My only hope is that Sheila is right, that Clark has "only" got a kidney stone. That hurts like the mother, I know - no, I haven't had anything like that myself, fortunately, but I know others who have. Perhaps Clark has even got a kryptonite stone?

[Linked Image]

Come back pronto, young lady!!! You've caused us enough grief and sorrow by now, so it's time for you to fix this!!! <wags finger> <taps foot>

[Linked Image]

Ann
/me joins Ann in the finger wagging and foot tapping.

DJ, DJ, DJ... Why do you play with our feelings so? *sniffs* Poor Clark... Poor Lois having to see him like that.

But I liked this part - it was in happier times!

Quote
She repeated the rest of the vows, never breaking eye contact with Clark as if she could silently reinforce what she was saying with her eyes. She could see their life together in his eyes. The happy times they would share, the sad times they would help each other through. It was all there, in the twinkling of his eyes.
Awww, so beautifully put, DJ! All of their life together...there in his eyes. *sigh*

Quote
She waved his hands away. “Oh, no, Farmboy. I’ve undressed you twice now – having to repress any pleasure that came to mind. This time, I’m gonna enjoy every moment. You just keep those hands to yourself.”
Keeping her hands to herself - must have been very hard... drool

Oh, DJ! Come back soon with the final part! Don't let Clark die! Save Superman! whinging

Please?

~Anna.
Dear DJ,

If you kill Clark Kent I will never make another video.... :p

Actually thats not really true but I figured I could try wink

PS I have been following this beautiful story! Well done! smile

~Lois Lane Wanna Be
DJ!!!!

Do you accept bribes? Threats? Entreaties? Really bad poetry? You just tell me what it's gonna take, and you've got it.

Of course, if you just didn't write so darn well, it wouldn't be so painful. This was another wonderful chapter, and like James, I'm not about to complain about the length. The ending yes, but not the length wink .

I'll be biting my nails until you post the next part!

Caroline, who is much too old for this kind of stress
I have passed very small kidney stones on two different occasions. I never saw the first one, but the second one felt like a nuclear submarine with the periscope extended.

When it finally popped out, it was less than a quarter-inch long and had four minuscule protrusions on one side, like four tiny little periscopes for four tinier little submariners out to torpedo my insides.

Both of them caused me to bleed like I'd been stabbed. And they both hurt like nobody's business.

So if Clark is trying to pass a Kryptonite kidney stone, the pain would probably be nearly unbearable. Add to that Lois's mortification at greeting Dr. Klein in her altogethers and having to tell the good doctor that Clark is Superman on her wedding night and you've got a ginormous (yes, that's a word) amount of WAFFy WHAM coming up in the next chapter or two.

Oh, thanks for not killing Clark in the beginning of the chapter. And thank you so very much for putting him in mortal danger at the end so all the FOLCs following your story will squeal and gnash their teeth. Me included.
wildguy wildguy wildguy wildguy

Yes she is evil. DNA test results show she is really a clone of Lex Luthor!

Delightful part, nice wedding.

Is this your way of forcing Clark to trust Dr. Klein? Cause clearly if they had trusted him he'd have told them NO SEX till Clark finishes healing.
goofy

Andreia - LOL - A wedding and Almost 2 Funerals - ROTFLOL!!!

Actually, I started the chapter reassuring all of you that Clark wasn't dead... *ahem* Yeah, I know "splitting hairs" and all. <g>

You didn’t even respect his honeymoon. - Boy, you don’t give the poor guy a break, do you?
Hey! He GOT a honeymoon, didn't he? It's not like he carried her through the doorway and then collapsed. <Babbles pouts - just can't please some people...> goofy

Quote
Your heart doesn’t melt at his cuteness, DJ? What? They ripped out your heart at Evilness School? [Dizzy]
Yes, I'll remind you that my teacher, Sue, made the first incision. <bats eyelashes at Sue> Love you, Sue. <g>

I don't know what your native language is, but I followed your English just fine. I'm honored that you chose me to delurk and give some fdk to. Thanks.


Hi Sheila! My foolishness!? Whatever do you mean? I assure you... it was all Babbles.

I love your speculating. <g>

<whistles innocently...>

So glad you liked the wedding. And enjoyed the honeymoon... even if it was cut short...

Finally, the man that she has been waiting for all her life...and this...on their wedding day. After all of her federal disasters.
<ducks head in shame... sort of...>

Don't worry Clark...you're gonna live! Or I'm coming after DJ! [Evil]
Hah! I laugh at thee... you didn't even send any pointy stick men or chainsaws... I'm not afraid. <g>

Well... maybe a little... Hee hee - thanks for the fdk, Sheila!!!


Hi James! Okay <makes notes - no apologizing for long parts> <g> I actually was just trying to warn people - so if they were hoping to fit in a "quick read" they would know this one was a little longer. But thanks. <g>

Quote
Just know that we will expect you to keep that up if you do that too often...
Oh... well, if you insist. <g> The final part is also at least 15 pages. Thanks for the fdk, James.


Ann!!! <squeals girlishly> You gave me a Calvin!!! <g>

Quote
Clark is dying???? Again??? For real???
Uhhhh... yeah... I'm gonna take a pass on that question. Next... goofy

Quote
He could marry them, because he is an ordained minister of the First Church of Blue Suede Deliverance!!! I love it!!! [Rotflol]
I wish I could take credit for it... but that was borrowed from the series. <g> But Lois saying that she didn't care if it was the church of the Three Stooges - that was mine. <g> Glad you enjoyed the wedding, Ann... as for the "giving away" - that's a fairly common practice in "southern" weddings. My parents "gave me away" at mine. Since Perry is "southern" (and Lois's parents were in attendence) I could see him asking that in the ceremony. It wasn't meant to be degrading... I assure you.

Heh - glad you enjoyed the "hair" part - it sort of just happened... I looked at it again after I wrote it and tweaked it a little and Then left it in, as a nod to Tank. <g> As to the "Tank" ending... well... you do know I've tried one of those once before (sort of) right? <g>

I love the guessing at what's wrong with Clark... I just love it, I tell ya. <g> Of course, I won't tell you if you're right or not though... yes, I'm just mean like that...

Quote
Come back pronto, young lady!!! You've caused us enough grief and sorrow by now, so it's time for you to fix this!!! <wags finger> <taps foot>
<singsong voice> Yes, Ms. Sibrant. <g> I'll turn in my final book report before Sunday.

Thank you for all that... er... lovely feedback, Ann. clap Hopefully the final chapter will be to everyone's satisfaction. <g> I'll be interested to see what you all think.

WAFFy WHAM coming up in the next chapter or two
Not to burst your bubble - but there's only one part left <sniffles> yes, it's almost over. One last 15 page part and it's all done. Another story spanning parts of 4 months... I posted the first part on May 23rd.

Anyway...

Thank you, Patrick. Glad you enjoyed the part and liked the wedding.

Thank you for the fdk! As for your speculation... <g> Loved it...


Thanks go out to all of you for sticking with me through this ANGSTWAFF story. I've loved each and every comment dearly. Thanks for going along on the ride with me. I've had notes on this story since last year, and been writing it since last March (wow - where has the time gone). I'm glad you've enjoyed it and are looking forward to the last part... <sniffle>

See you all soon - BY SUNDAY. <g>

-- DJ
Geez, DJ, you really know how to ruin a mood!

Okay, so at first I was a little disappointed over the lack of angst over Clark being shot (I love, love, love the guy, but I also like watching him suffer. I'm a complete sadist.), but you certainly made up for it! The poor guy really can't get a break!

This chapter was so sweet, but by the end you had me whinging like a baby. Come back and fix Clark!!!

Jessi
I don't know what to say - this part had so many different emotions. I felt like sitting in a roller coaster...

Quote
Lois started to cry. “Don’t be such a baby, Clark,” she teased happily between sobs. She pulled him to her and held him fiercely. “Don’t ever scare me like that again.”
Again, I didn't expect the ending of this story. Clark really is scaring her again but I think more than he had at the beginning of the story smile1 YAY! Clark wasn't hurt. Then they had such a perfect wedding. Loved it! clap and then the evil end mad

Quote
“Oh, no, Farmboy. I’ve undressed you twice now – having to repress any pleasure that came to mind. This time, I’m gonna enjoy every moment. You just keep those hands to yourself.”
hehe, I enjoyed that part! sloppy

Quote
Clark stared in disbelief at what he saw. Blood.
wallbash omg no! What happened to Clark. You can't do this again to us, DJ, can you?

Quote
<...For as long as we both shall live...>
NOOOOOO! This was too short. Please tell me this is not true.

If he’d had just one wish, it would have been to see Lois one last time...
Hey if this is going to be a "NO HAPPY END" tell me now! I want to have a happy ending. Please! hail hail hail hail

Quote
Hmmm... I'll take really bad poetry for two hundred please. LOL.
Heh. Boy, am I going to make you wish you'd never said that.

Stopping by Fanfic on an Angsty Evening
By Caroline (With deepest apologies to Robert Frost)

Whose tale this is I think I know.
It’s giving me an ulcer, though.
She should not leave her story here
After such a heartless blow!

These people are to me so dear
Her evil muse I’ve come to fear.
I beg for WAFF and no mistake
Oh, DJ, let me make this clear:

How much more do we have to take?
Wedding night angst! My heart might break.
It’s time to love, not time to weep.
A miracle cure Klein shall make!

The bribe I have would seem too cheap,
But this bad poem is yours to keep.
A new part now would help me sleep.
A new part now would help me sleep.

There. I'm pretty sure I just made the English teachers cry! laugh

C.
On message boards did our DJ
a stately wedding-feast decree
where Ralph, with printer's ink on hands
through culverts measureless to man
with news to printers ran.
So many a yard of fertile news room ground
with flow'rs and garlands were girdled round
and placards telling wondrous news of yore
where many a famous reporter reverently stood
to see a thing as ancient as the time
a man and woman joined in holy matrimony.

But oh! that deep romantic chasm that opened
beneath our couple during their night of sacred wedded pleasure!
A savage place! as unholy and horrid
as e'er beneath a waning moon was haunted
By woman wailing for her super-husband!
And from this chasm, with ceaseless turmoil seething,
as if this earth in fast thick pants were breathing,
a mighty fountain momently was forced;
A fount of blood! in whose half-intermitted burst
huge fragments vaulted like rebounding hail
of kidney stones inside a ureter's canal!
And 'mid these dancing rocks of pain and torture
it flung up momently the blood-filled river
twelve inch's meandering with a mazy motion
through ripped and bleeding ureter it ran
then reached the porcelain cavern used by man
and sank down lifeless drain to realm of flushed-down gators
And 'mid this tumult readers heard from far
DJ's voice prophesying angst!

The shadow of our lovers' night of pleasure
floated midway on the waves
Where was heard the mingled measure
of the moans and pants and raves.
It was a miracle of rare device
after near sixty years of fiction'l celibacy!

A damsel with a dulcimer
in a vision once I saw:
It was a Lois Lanean maid
And on her dulcimer she played
singing of Clark Kent.
Could I revive within me
her symphony and song
To such deep delight 'twould win me
that with music loud and long
I would build that night of love
That lovely night! Those joys of love!
And all who heard would sense it there
And all should cry, Beware! Beware!
His chocolate eyes, his silky hair!
Weave a cricle round him thrice,
and close your eyes with holy dread,
for he on honey-dew has fed
and drunk the milk of Paradise.

(With huge, huge apologies to Samuel Taylor Coleridge... and I'm not absolutely sure what I wanted to say with this desecration of his wonderful poem. Except... how about you post the next part now, DJ?)

Ann
Ooooh, more fdk!

eek And a poem from Caroline??? goofy

Quote
Hey if this is going to be a "NO HAPPY END" tell me now! I want to have a happy ending. Please! [Hail] [Hail] [Hail] [Hail]
Now, Barbara, when have you ever known me not to come through in the end with a happy ending? Hmmm? <g> I mean there's always a first time for everything...

What? I'm just saying...

<g>

Thanks for the fdk, Barbara!


Hi Caroline! A poem! Oh, happy days. This takes me way back - to highschool and creative writing class <giggles>

LOL!!! OMG! That was hilarious! You made me cry - but from tears of laughter.

That was too good! And you even got the rhythm and rhyming down <giggles girlishly> 8 count lines! And the 3rd line in the first stanza rhymes with the lines in the 2nd stanza and... wait! You managed to do that for each stanza! <squeals>

Eeee hee hee! I LOVED it! Too cute!

I don't know about the English teachers - but I wept tears of mirth! Thank you, Caroline! sloppy

***EDITED BECAUSE ANN SLIPPED IN****

Ann!!! <hugs>

ANOTHER POEM!!! Yippee!!! Wow! I'm on a role!

<sits down to read - will come back to comment in a bit>

.........

I'm back....

And I'm speechless! <yes, I know, difficult to accomplish with me - LOL>

WOW! Ann! How in the world? You guys amaze me! Hee hee hee - you're too much!

I have to say though, that this stanza was my favorite:

Quote
The shadow of our lovers' night of pleasure
floated midway on the waves
Where was heard the mingled measure

It was a miracle of rare device

LOL!!!! 60 years of fictional celibacy <falls out of chair laughing and snorting> Oh, Ann! That was too funny...

However... you're right. I did at least allow them to get together... right? That's gotta make you happy, yes? I know how you hate to get jerked around by too much UST... well this sexual tension is no longer "unresolved" - eh? <g>

Thank you for the poem. I loved it! You guys sure know how to make a girl's head swell. And Babbles... well now she's refusing to share equal billing with Bubbles, stating that she's in an all together different league from her - there will be hell to pay now.

<snort> Apparentely I get silly on only 6 hours of sleep.

Anyway, thank you all so much! The fdk has been phenomenal... And those poems were just too much! <g>

I really think you all deserve to get the final part sooner than Sunday... but I really do want to wait and see what *BOTH* my betas have to say before I post it - waiting on one. <g>

So here's the deal - if I get the part back before Sunday, I'll post it sooner. <g> I know the poetry deserves more... but it's the best offer I've got.

C-ya all soon!

OMG, Wow, Yikes! I don't even know what to say after that. Beautiful, captivating, absolutely cruel. goofy I love it all.

[Linked Image]

Yikes!!! [Linked Image] Poor baby!! That has to be the ultimate torture for Clark - passing a kryptonite kidney stone on his wedding night!!!!!

[Linked Image] So we're supposed to hang around and wait til Sunday.....

If you don't have any takers, I'd like to give the nficcy honeymoon scene a go - with your approval, of course!!!!

Can't wait for the last part! This has been a wonderfully written story!!!!
Wow! You've managed to shock us again.

I loved the wedding. It was perfect! No clones, no crazy wedding destroyers, and H.G. Wells didn't interupt them on their wedding night! Just perfect! wink

But then you had to go and slam us with some more angst!

notworthy Me bows down to the queen. Great job!
Well, DJ, I was in such a hurry last time, so I need to change one of the stanzas, like this:

A damsel with a dulcimer
in a vision once I saw
It was our DJ, lovely maid
And on her dulcimer she played
and sang a song so heavenly
of Clark Kent and Lois Lane.

Okay, the rest should be the way it was before!

Wow... my first thought, DJ, is EVIL, EVIL, EVIL! smile How can you do this to us.... And I'm without internet until Monday! Need next part now!!!! smile

But the bad poetry!! That's a hoot!

Jo
Oh wow! More fdk! Eeeeeeeee!

Hi Jackie! I left you speechless? Oh goodie. <g> And I'll take that absolutely cruel as a compliment. wink Thanks Jackie!


Hi Missy! LOL at the picture - too funny. Wow - one person mentions that they think it might be kidney stones (okay, more than one) and then someone mentions the K... and now people are just running with it. goofy Maybe it was just bad cake from the wedding shower??? LOL!

Yes, you are gonna have to hang around until I get my beta back... whether that's Sunday, who knows. <g> But by Sunday, I promise, one way or the other. <g>

Quote
If you don't have any takers, I'd like to give the nficcy honeymoon scene a go - with your approval, of course!!!!
Missy! I’m so flattered! I was actually just teasing when I said that. I never expected anyone to take me up on it. LOL. Um, to be honest, I REALLY don’t do nfic anymore – writing or reading it. One of my betas had actually teased me several times about me “fading to black” and not writing the nfic scenes and I told her that she could write them but she said she declined since I wouldn’t be reading them. <blush>

But I certainly won’t hold you back from writing it if you want to.

And thanks so much for your fdk – I’m tickled that you think it’s been wonderfully written. Thanks.


Hi Symbolic! Oh good, one last shock before the final post. That's always good. <g> Thanks - glad you loved the wedding. IMHO, it's how their real wedding should have been - friends and family with Perry marrying them. And I think it would have been cool to have had it at the Planet. <g>

The queen? No... no no no... I'm merely an apprentice! I don't want the pressure of being the queen. goofy LOL! But thank you so much!


LOL Ann! Yes, that does make more sense. <still giggling at the poetry>


Hi Julie! How can I do this to you? Very easily... *cough*choke*sputter* I mean... I don't know! It was so hard. I felt miserable knowing how mean I was being... uh, yeah...

Ooooh, sorry about the internet! I might be able to post it a day early (no promises) it just depends... but not today, definitely not today. Sorry.

And I agree - the poetry was a hoot. <g>


Thank you all again so much! Babbles is just glutted on fdk. I'll have you know that she's so full she can't even get off the couch! <g>

I think everyone is overlooking the most obvious explanation.

Of course she did. Hey... Kryptonite's got nothing on Lois, you know. She even said so herself.

laugh
Heh. I can just imagine Lois explaining to Dr. Klein what has happened to Superman/Clark. ("Well, you see, first I started to undress him... and then I sort of attacked him with my mouth... I mean at first I only attacked his lips and tongue with my mouth, but later on I attacked other parts of him...." laugh )

Oh wait, I'm reading ahead. thumbsup

I am an ordained minister of the First Church of Blue Suede Deliverance,” he said, somewhat sheepishly.

Lois was floored. Blue Suede Deliverance? She grinned. She didn’t care if he was ordained by the church of the Three Stooges! Everything was going to be okay! They were going to get married after all!
YAY! More Perry-love. smile

Quote
Tuxedos always made men look good, but they made Clark look positively yummy every time he had worn one
"Yummy" is just the right word!

Quote
Having only been in her new lease agreement for less than two weeks, her landlady had graciously agreed to let her out of it with the news of her impending marriage. The movers would be coming back
Oh, God, those poor movers and that long-suffering landlady! DJ, you've made that little subplot so deliciously funny to me.

Quote
If he’d had just one wish, it would have been to see Lois one last time...
AHHH! DJ, you're going to be the death of me. And 22 isn't here yet! *whimpers* Please come back soon!
Only one more chapter left?? mecry

DJ I have really loved every bit of this story. ^_^ I can't wait to see the ending. smile

(I'm sorry I'm so terribly uninteresting in my reviews... I hope in the future I'm back to my old reviewing self. That just means you are going to have to write more though. Hahaha. *cough* *Sigh*)

Well, I guess that's the way that fic lore gets started... We readers are just trying to get past the 'almost two funerals' for our honeymoon hero. But I still like Sue's explanation best - Lois broke him!!! laugh [insert nfic smilie here]

I'll see what I can do if there are any readers out there who want to read an interloper's scene. This might be good for my muse - she's been on vacation lately because of work, but I'll get it my best shot. Maybe I can get one of your betas to see if it passes snuff to be associated with your story. [Linked Image]
Imagine my surprise when I popped on here and saw what was happening!!!

Quote

jawdrop

Sue!!! OMG!!! Do you know how hard I laughed at that? Seriously? Do you?

And then Lara went and added to the fun - yes, I guess Lois did set herself up for that one, didn't she? Little Ms. 'Kryptonite's got nothing on me' - LOL!!!

Oh, you guys.... <still snorting>

Oh no! Ann!!! LOLS! I could only imagine the look on Dr. Klein's face!

Quote
And then Dr. Klein fell off his chair, cracking his skull on the floor below...
Yep, I imagine that's what would happen, Sue, but his face would turn 8 shades of pink first. <g>

Quote
I just sent the last part back to DJ, so you aren't waiting on me anymore. Get out the pitchforks and hound her mercilessly. You might also want to get some tissues because you'll probably be as sad as I am that this story is over.
PITCHFORCKS!?! Don't be telling them to hound me mercilessly yet... after all... you gave me some great suggestions and a few things I need to tweak before I can post. <g>

Quote
(Somewhere, DJ, I hope you're crying.)
After that beta, yes, I was, I was CRYING. I was laughing so hysterically that I thought the neighbors might hear me. Seriously, I think I pulled an abdominal muscle I laughed so hard. OMG - too funny. Thank you so much!


Hi Lisa! You know, I just couldn't think of any other word to describe him but 'yummy' there. <g> Glad you liked it. And I'm tickled that you liked the parts with the movers and the landlady - I just really felt like if Lois had agreed to marry Luthor, she probably would have already closed her lease out and set up movers and what not... the show never showed us that - but it did seem to change the location of her apartment in her building from time to time. <g> And it always seemed to me like her apartment was just a one-bedroom... but in the pilot, it seemed a little bigger and Lucy was staying with her, so I would have thought she'd have had 2 bedrooms then. So it was just a fun little subplot to play with. <g> Glad you enjoyed it.

No... 22 isn't here yet... but I'm tweaking it right now - I have it back from both betas and I'm hoping maybe I can post it later... maybe even this morning. <g> Thanks for the fdk!


Hi Jojo! I'm so glad you've loved it. <g> I miss your reviews Jojo, I won't lie, but I'm also just happy that you popped in just to let me know that you're still reading and still loving it. Thank you!

LOL Missy - yes, I agree, Sue's explanation was great. She mentioned that explanation to me several times in the last couple of betas <snort> along with some other colorful lines that I just might have to share with everyone at the end of part 22 - I laughed so hard... I really should share...


Anyway, thanks again everyone! You have no idea how sad I'll be to post the final part tomorrow. frown Hmmm.... maybe I should hold on to it awhile... I could give myself time to acclimate to the idea that it's over... and...

OUCH!

<glares at Babbles>

All right, all right. I'll post it just as soon as I get my tweaking done. Sheesh!

<g>

But seriously, thank you. It's been a blast.

If that was a Kryptonite kidney stone, and we for some reason need to make Clark suffer even more, maybe you should make it so that the only thing that will fix it (other than passing it out whole) is break it with a laser... Clark's laser vision, to be more precise! Too mean? Would it still work? I don't know, but that was my truly evil thought of the day.
I tried to only skim the feedback, since I've only read the first few paragraphs of this part, but I wanted to make sure that you hadn't already gotten 500 comments pointing this out.

From part 20:
Quote
She had driven her Jeep to Clark’s apartment, but it was such a nice night that they had opted to walk to the restaurant instead of driving.
From part 21:
Quote
Then the cab had dropped them off at her apartment where Clark could change into his Suit and then she could drive ‘Superman' to STAR Labs in her Jeep.
Hmmm... Is Lois following the cab in her Jeep? It seems like an awfully bad waste of cash, but if he's too wounded to move from the back seat, I can understand.

Sorry, but I made a mental note of where Lois' Jeep was because I was trying to convince myself that Lois had only consumed enough alcohol to feel the effects but not enough to impair her driving.

Now, I've interupted my reading for too long. I doubt I'll finish enough to comment further tonight, but I'll drop you a line when I'm done.

Elisabeth
who is disappointed she glanced enough in skimming feedback to know what's going to happen next. frown
Elisabeth you are one sharp cookie!!!

I'm so glad that you found this mistake. That's what happens when you go back and change something that you've written and then don't remember how it affects something later in your story. Towards the end of the story, I did a lot of changing and editing back and forth on a few items. I tried to read, and re-read everything to make sure it gelled, but obviously I didn't catch everything...

<sigh>

No... no one else caught it - or at least "told" me that they caught it. You take the blue ribbon. I'm so glad you did find it, though, that means I can fix it before the story goes to the archive. I've already submitted it but I haven't heard from my GE yet, so there's still time for me to fix this. <wipes brow>

Thanks Elisabeth! I hope you enjoy the part despite the mistake.

-- DJ

Edited -- <sigh> I was making the situation more difficult than it needed to be, huh? That was because I added that line about her Jeep being at Clark's apartment AFTER I wrote the part about the cab taking her back to her apartment to get her Jeep -- I forgot I wrote that part.

Therefore, when they get to STAR Labs to see Dr. Klein, this is what you should have read:

-------------
When she had called Dr. Klein, he had told her to meet him at STAR Labs so he could examine Superman. She had called a cab to take them by Clark’s apartment where Clark could change into his Suit and then she could drive ‘Superman' to STAR Labs in her Jeep.
-------------

Anyway, you didn't need that long drawn out explanation :p but at least it's fixed, anyway. Thank you Elisabeth!

-- DJ

Oh, and P.S., Elisabeth, thank you for the fdk you've been leaving me along the way - I'm so glad that you and James have been enjoying the story. Thank you!
