I'm so behind with all my feedback that I'm just going to leave FDK here for the last few parts. This was just a fantastic insight into what Clark's life might have been like if he hadn't been adopted by a loving couple like Martha and Jonathan from the start. Your portrayal of this little boy who's basically afraid of his own shadow is - I want to say spot on - but I don't have any experience with kids who suffered through emotional abusual like Clark did. So I just have to guess you did a great job of showing us what kind of impact that trauma might have on him. He's so very reluctant to trust. And gradually that trust in Martha and Jonathan grows. Oh, and don't we all know that this trust will be put to the test when his powers start to kick in?
How is he going to deal with that?
I'm so glad to read that there will be more, because by all means there needs to be more.
Thank you so much for reading, and I appreciate the fdk 😍 I've had something like this story in my head for so long, and it was a challenge to finally write it. I'm glad I decided to use Martha's and Jonathan's POVs as well, because writing in only little Clark's voice is quite difficult!
I'm looking forward to starting the next part, because yes, as you point out, he's going to deal with his powers starting to kick in quite differently than canon Clark.
Thank you again!!! 😍😍😍
