I'm finally back to thank you all very much, not just for your comments on this final section, but for your support throughout this story. Sorry it's taken so long, but again every time I thought that comments had ceased and it was time to reply, someone else would post (and I am
definitely NOT complaining about that!
) but that's why I waited.
Anyway... so our protagonists have declared their happy ever afters and Clark told Lois the truth about his double life. And... well, there seem to be some mixed responses here.
CC probably put it strongest:
I am not missing the irony, here, Wendy. You'll remember that once I preached you a nice sermonette on how I liked loose endings, things not to follow exactly from A to B, holes for the imagination, yakkety, yak, etc...? And you pretty much said, "Yeah, whatever, but tell it slower and tell me more." And I thought, "There she goes again, that Wendy."
Look what you've done here! I think, and again stressing how humble this opinion is, there was more story here. In fact, I imagine I can see your tread marks where you pulled it back in line as it tried to surge away.
Lois vowed to fight for her man. I wanted to see that. And it's been noted that Martha deserves a bit of a comeuppance. And the opportunity for Lois to investigate the dream woman and for Clark to watch, either clued-in or not....
You know what it is, don't you? I'm still looking for the *real* conflict, which you pretty much said you weren't writing. I get it.
However, I would say that I would like for you to have told me MORE and SLOWER.
ROFL!
Wendy
