I have so much to catch up on and so little time to comment, so...

Yes! I'm glad to see many of the developments here. I was so relieved you can't believe it when I saw that Luthor had used a condom - yes! I don't think it's his child. Wow, what a relief!!!!

I'm glad that the baby was born, too, and that both mother and child were okay. I must say that Clark seems to be off rescuing people just when Lois needs him the most, but I thought it was sweet that he delivered their child.

Now Luthor is going to do his worst to kidnap Lois and Clark's baby. Well, there are two chapters left to go. Maybe Luthor is going to cause all sorts of grief in part 21, but then undoubtedly Lois and Clark will get their baby back in part 52. Right, Carol?

And then, who knows, just maybe Lois and Clark will start working on giving Jon a little brother or sister. I do expect Lois to be happy and comfortable about making love to Clark before this story is over. That was the best thing about the whole sorry rape business, if you ask me - Luthor used Miranda's solution on Lois, and because that drug just lowered her inhibitions and took away her fears, she really, really wanted to make love to Clark. Accept it, Lois. In vino veritas, or at least, in Miranda's drug you find the truth about your own heart.

This remains a very enjoyable fic, Carol! thumbsup
