Okay did better than I thought I might.

My year's worth of college French only goes so far. I used Google Translate to read both of Poussin's stories. It worked well - I could tell there were things here and there that weren't exactly what the author intended, but it was certainly close enough to enjoy the stories.

When I was getting quotes for the quizzes, I actually went through the translated version to find passages that I thought were representative of the story as a whole, then went back and found those sections in the original French. I wanted to make sure that those stories were treated with equal respect to all of the other stories written this year.

Long? I guess it’s relative

Quotes:
1. Oooh! Yes. By Morgana. A Wedding in Paris
2. Sadly no. But If I had to guess – Seed of Doubt by Deadly Chakram. The Seed being the child, the doubt being Lois’s faithfulness in the face of Call-Me-Daniel.
3. That’s…I can’t even guess, I guess… Err…after the remaining quotes, I’ll try Christmas Carol by Stopquitdont based on Christmas and adoption going great together.
4. Sounds like it’s on the wrong side. But maybe Regarding Clark by Stopquitdont? Also, did SQD sneak some stories directly to the Archive?
5. French? La Femme de Superman by Poussin?
6. Another guess… Not the Years But the Moments by Terry Leatherwood
7. Hey, look! A big, fat hint!
LOIS: Did he just call me fat?
Newsworthy by AntiKryptonite?
8. Perfect - The House of Luthor - Matchmaker Style by KenJ (I hope :o)
9. Woah! Still… The Matchmaker Files: An Unusual Proposal by KenJ based on this being an alternate universe, there being HG Wells, and him trying to find a suitable mate for Clark.

Excerpts:
2. Well…still a baby.
3. A Carol. And a Santa. Sounds like A Christmas Carol to me. Also the girl adoption works with the excerpt.
4. Mindy? Taunting Clark. Regarding Clark?
5. Still French. Sticking with the quote.
6.
7. Yeah, Newsworthy seems right…
8. Why change a good guess?
9. So much marriage. So many proposals…

I’m looking forward to finding out how many I’ve guessed correctly
