Vicki Thanks for all your wonderful FDK, Vicki.

About Sam & Ellen - it was such a small part of the story, but I really, really wanted them back together. I guess I wanted to make the ending happy for Lois - not only with Kal/Clark, but with her birth family too.

I'm glad it seemed believable how I did it. smile

Sarah Thanks for the great compliment - it's always good to hear you wanted more.

Rkn Thanks for reading and commenting.

Kathy RE the age that Clark flew. If I'd stuck with canon and had him not flying until 18, I either had to have him kidnapped later, or not having flown before he left.

I wanted him taken earlier than 18 - partly because then M&J really did lose a 'child' and partly because, being younger when he became the SR on NK could help explain why he didn't ask more questions of Ked and Nor.

But I also wanted him being able to fly before he left. Having L&C find the Suit, which had already been made my Martha, supported this because it's not much point being a Superhero if you can't get to the scene of the emergency very quickly.

Therefore, I moved his flying forward a bit.

Thanks for all your very enthusiastic FDK, Kathy.

Corrina. smile
