I'm just wondering *why* Clark would face that. It seems more of a woman thing - every day, women face the question about having a child or not, and not to decide is to decide.
Clark presumably wouldn't have fertility issues (or would he? This could be an interesting plotbunny.)
Is this a case of "Have to get a woman pregnant before I become infertile", or "Have to get a woman pregnant because something bad will happen (to someone else, or perhaps the entire Earth) if I don't" or "Have to get a woman pregnant because I'll die otherwise"?
Tandrelmairon wrote a fic sort of based on this theme, in
Shatterfall . It's not LnC, more generally Superman, but very good.
