This fic has some dark moments. It has implied violence - results, not the actual events themselves. I skip over a lot of detail, hoping that individual readers will fill in the blanks or not - depending on their own preferences.

In places, it is sad.

Language - the word 'hell' appears a couple of times.

It is not a deathfic. That doesn't mean there is no death, but that death isn't a major theme. (And both Lois and Clark will be alive at the end.)

Most of the WHAMs come early in the fic.

As mentioned in the FDK thread for the prologue, Part 1 has a section which could seem to hint at something chilling.

Here's the section ...

Quote
Today, I strengthened my position over the enemy. We exposed him ... for a full twelve hours overnight, leaving him weak and defenceless this morning. The surgery was performed by Moyne and Shadbolt.
The *surgery* referred to is the issue. If your imagination leaps to gruesome stuff, it's almost certainly *not* as bad as what you're thinking.

I'm not willing to publicly say what the surgery was, but when it is revealed, I think most people's reaction will be 'OK, that's not as bad as I'd feared.'

I hope this helps,

Corrina.
