I had a feeling that Rachael might be tired for a reason. Too bad her career plans aren’t going where she wants them.

I loved the twist on the interview. smile1

This part got to me:

Lois jerked away, almost as though freed from a spell by Clark’s voice. She hurried over to him, “Sorry... Lex... duty calls...”
.....Open rant.....
I really hate Lex. I mean, I REALLY hate Lex. I hate Lex so much that I’ve never even contemplated writing anything with Lex in it. I think I’ve changed my mind. I need to do something with Lex in a story so that his fate appropriately reflects my affection. devil
.....Close rant.....

Anyway, I love what you did with Lois's "interview" with Lex. Having Clark present as a chaperone provides for an interesting dynamic.
