I jot down some notes on paper, wondering how I can intervene and what I’m supposed to do to help? Wells had only said I was here to help Clark, but could I expedite the investigation at all? Ultimately, the sooner Lex was arrested, the faster the Lois of this time would be free of his influence, and able to help Clark also.
The actual process of start any investigation begins with taking notes, whether on a phone, tablet or in this case, paper. Toomis8, absolutely
love all these references to the recent past. When I started working in the early eighties, have a typewriter that corrected itself was considered cutting edge!
Once I had returned to Metropolis after Lex’s death, Superman was still working in the city, but he never stopped by my apartment again. He would grant me the odd question at press conferences but the warmth in his eyes, the affection I had once believed he held for me, was gone. Without Clark to ask Superman to stop by, I had no way of contacting him personally, and eventually I stopped asking questions. Superman also began to spend more time further afield, and Metropolis, while he still was seen more frequently there than elsewhere, saw much less of him.
Since I started reading this amazing story I was wandering what had happened to Clark. Apparently in her timeline he is alive and ...well? It heartbreaking to imagine he avoided Lois so completely. Where is his homebase now?
This fic is so fresh and cool! Lois is using her smarts and hindsight to solve a very tricky dilemma.
Onto the next chapter....
