Thanks for all of the replies, everyone.
Too funny! Love it!
Poor Cat, she should have put everything together before saying anything to Lois.
Hmm, just thought of something, what if Clark shows up to the party wearing a different costume?
That would be pretty funny. Clark would have a hard time explaining himself then.
Very, very funny little vignette. And I have to second Morgana's question, what if Clark shows up in a different costume? I mean, there's no reason for him to wear the costume under his suit instead of keeping it in a bag, is there? Unless, well, he *is* Superman.
Of course, Perry might have ordered him to wear just that costume, in which case I'd still like a sequel.
Oh, and what will Cat's costume be? Catwoman? (Pun intended.)
That would be an appropriate costume for Cat.
Very enjoyable! So funny that the only reason that Cat thought that Lois is WW is because of what she found in Lois's gym bag. ("Oh, those are just my workout clothes!" says Lois, wink, wink, nudge, nudge.) Come on, Cat, how about verifying the facts independently.
I'd also like to see a sequel, but I'm sure that Clark could easily change his mind 'at the last second' as to what he was going to wear to the party. The confrontation between Lois or Cat with Clark why he didn't come in his Superman costume would worth the read.
Or if he did come as Superman (per Perry's request as Lara suggested), would one of them assume that he was wearing one of those costumes with the fake muscles? Also, it would be funny if Jimmy showed up as Batman.
Thanks for the giggles, LLF!
Cat definitely jumped the gun. It seems a lot of people are interested in a sequel. I do have a couple of ideas for one, so a sequel is a possibility.
Very funny! I agree - we need a sequel of the actual party.
Ralph can be Green Lantern.
Ralph as Green Lantern would be pretty hilarious.
Cute story.
Virginia, there's a reason why Cat is the gossip columnist and not a real reporter.
DC, I think Ralph would make a better Guy Gardner. So who would Perry be? I can think of a couple Marvel possibilities (specifically, Hulk and The Thing), but I can't think of any broad-shouldered DC heroes off the top of my head. Maybe Martian Manhunter, since he can shape shift? Of course, no one with his fear of fire would ever choose to smoke.
Joy,

I could see Hulk, the Thing, or Martian Manhunter all being a good fit for Perry.
Hmm, just thought of something, what if Clark shows up to the party wearing a different costume?
I thought of that as well. Was Clark there and overheard them talking? What would Cat and Lois say if he didn't show up as Superman? Does he dare show up as Superman with some alterations to the disguise? (different cape/glasses/padding underneath to make him look chubby)
An altered Superman costume just might work!
Great job, Lois Lane Fan

I totally loved Cat's confidence--how sure she was that she 'had' them. It made the turn around, that there was a costume party that evening,
that much more perfect.
Can I chime in and add a vote for a sequel? It would be so fun to see how the evening were to go. Loving the ideas so far

Thanks for sharing,
Laura
Yeah, Cat sure was confident until the end. I'm glad you enjoyed the turn around!
