I just finished a SV fanfic posted at ff.net, for anyone who is interested.
When Worlds Collide I hadn't watched SV until this season when Lois came to town. I am a total FoLC- I was afraid of the dynamics nonFoLC writers would introduce. Anyway, the muse got an idea and I had to get it out... which is a good thing because now she's ready to get back to the LnC stories that have been sitting to the side.
LnC is my first love, but I thought I would post this for those who are willing to read it!
As for the backstory for those who are unfamiliar:
SV follows a young Clark Kent in high school who is starting to get powers. In S1, he learns that he's an alien. He saved the life of Lex Luthor, the son of Mega-illionare Lionel. They are good friends, although Lex thinks there is something under the surface with the Kent family.
Clark has been in love with Lana Lang from far away (for too long IMO). Chloe Sullivan, his best friend and editor of the school paper, loved Clark from afar, and made a deal with Lionel to investigate Clark after seing him and Lana together. After turning her back on Lionel's deal, and agreeing to testify against him (he killed his parents), Chloe's safe house is blown up.
Clark battles with Jor-El, who is trying to create a 'ruler of earth' by turning him into Kal-El. In previous seasons, Clark has run away to Metropolis drugged up on red kryptonite to escape 'his destiny.'
The mythos of SV plays through some ancient Native American caves and the mysterious Dr. Swann. The cave picture depict a man falling from the stars with powers who promises to send another one like him. Dr. Swann intercepted an interstellar message and decrypted the language to find out about Clark. Clark finds out that there are 3 stones (presumably from Krypton) that he needs to locate.
Season 4 begins with Lois coming to town to investigate her cousin Chloe's death. A blast of lightning makes her drive off the road where she discovers a naked Clark Kent, acting as Kal-El. When he snaps to it, they work together to find Chloe, who's death had been faked by Lex to protect her from Lionel's hit men.
In the Spell episode, Lois comes to SV to throw a surprise party for Chloe. Lana gets possessed by an ancient witch who is looking for the sacred stones. Lana then possesses Lois and Chloe, and they go on a rampage. This story goes before and after that epi, so that small explanation should explain the references.
(See the Music Video for a fun epi cap) Now, if all of that didn't scare you away, please take a few minutes to read
When Worlds Collide .
