Wow! Kal had placed his hands back over his eyes, but he turned towards the sound. "Ma?"
"How is this pos--oh, come here baby."
Kal ran into Martha's arms, throwing his hands around her neck. "Ma," he sobbed again, his eyes still squeezed shut.
"I got you honey. Come on," she scooped him up--how did she make it look so easy?--and carried him inside. Powerful, delightful.

One of the funniest revelations ever.  But where does little Clark really come from? Only the past? Or even an alternate universe? Eagerly waiting for more.

I'm wondering if it't L&C's kid from the future, not Clark but named after him.

Good question. But how would their son from the future know "an alien language" (Kryptonian?), but near to no English? And why would he recognize Martha as his "Ma"?

Very touching when Kal(Clark) saw Martha. Love how you revealed it all to Lois. She can't get mad at Clark for this one.

Very intriguing, but also very confusing to me! But what the heck. Give me more of this story, so I can figure out what is really going on! Oh, and... yes, I loved the revelation!

Your Little Clark is so precious that he's just melting me into a big pile of maternal goo. And the covering his eyes after the heat vision because he's afraid of doing it again...  . Bless his little heart! I'm so glad Martha was there to comfort him because I have the feeling Lois wouldn't have had a clue what to do. Wonderful revelation - can't wait to see how it plays out once Big Clark gets back and has to face the music! Looking forward to more  Caroline

I've been very bad with feedback lately, which is doubly bad because the boards have been so quiet that I should have plenty of time to write feedback for all the stories that I've been lurking around.
Anyway, this part was great! Yay for Martha taking care of little Clark, and yay for the revelation and the craziness of it. I'm looking forward to Lois' confrontation with Clark when he gets back.

Uh, nice Lois walks right into the middle of it and doesn't even notice what's going on until MaxiClark runs off to get medical attention to the convenient plot device. Regarding all the ideas where MiniClark comes from: Mercy's notes in part 1For the purposes of this story, Clark came to earth at about age 4, Green Green Glow of Home never happened, and Clark never lost his spaceship. Everything else is pure LnC. This story is post-Nightfall and pre-Barbarians at the Planet. I haven't seen the show recently enough to place it any more exactly. Michael

Okay, I admit it. I've been lurking around, reading it when it popped up and not leaving feedback.
The premise for this story is fascinating and I'm in love with little Clark. I have a mental image of a little, slightly pudgy Clark.
This is definitely one of the most imaginative and funny revelations I've seen.
