Mouserocks: Glad you are enjoying the fun. Will post next part when I'm done with this e-mail.

IolantheAlias: I enjoy Lois's Inner Voice. She always says either what the reader is thinking or what Lois really is thinking. Part 10 is ALL about the Inner Voice. One of my favorite parts. laugh Ok, enough spoilers...

Michael: Fitting in another responce today, so I can post another part of GEM tonight before night-night, since I posted ML first on Saturday, it only seemed fair. Let's see what did you write...

There are no green rocks in this story. Complicated enough without out.

Might the yelling seem a bit awkward. Unless it's "Yes, Clark!" and "Now, Clark!"
Right. And that wouldn't be awkward?

Quote
But Lois might take advantage of Clark.
Doubtful with his strength.

Quote
Glutton for punishment?
Isn't he though?

Quote
That would have been awkward.
Would have made story much shorter, less funny, and less romantic. Glad it didn't happen.

Is that the true reason? I mean, unless they have an open grill, the cook should *not* smell of smoke, much less he waiter. Or is she thinking of cigarette smoke. Back in the early nineties, smoking was still allowed in restaurants, right? It definitely was in the Metropolis Press Club.
Well, things sometimes get burned while cooking causing a bit of smoke. I wasn't going to for the cigarette smoke angle.

Good idea. And if she had responded badly, he could have always claimed confused and said he thought she was Lana.
This Clark got dumped badly by Lana, I don't think he'd go there.

That's a nice twist on the old yawn-and-stretch. /Jimmy voice/ Smooth, CK, very smooth.
Are you auditioning for the part of Clark's inner voice?

Quote
That should be interesting. Will Lois re-set her image of Clark and shift her attention to Superman? Will she run from Superman to Clark? Will she want them both? Will she just put two and two together since she's seen him without glasses? Will she take it as another lie? And *when* will it happen?
Yes to one or more of those questions. Soon... in the next 10 parts soon. laugh

Won't that wake her up? What will happen when she catches him with his father? And how will he get the globe out of there without her knowing?
Clark doesn't steal.

Quote
Has she already connected it to her future husband?
Yep. How many other aliens are there out there?

Quote
Well, all she has to do is go up on Lex Tower to the viewing platform. Although, I'm guessing she's talking about a sandy beach and blue ocean. Not the East Coast water front.
Yep.

Does this mean I now have to wait till Wednesday? dizzy
Posting it before I head to bed tonight.
