So Clark's back to thinking again instead of feeling guilty. I hope you like him that way smile

I see that Clark is finally walking in Lois’ shoes, I like it that he is feeling guilty, I’ve come to realize that guilty is one of the most bothering of the feelings.

I keep saying that Clark needs to listen, and this chapter is proof enough that he doesn’t listen. He heard Lois the first time she said he had died on her, only to make sense of it when Lucy said it.

Is it perhaps just Lois that Clark isn’t listening to?

I read once that if you don’t listen you send people three signals:

a) You weren’t paying attention to what they were saying;
b) What people have to say don’t matter to you;
c) You think that what you are thinking is more important than what people are saying.

I hope that Clark will start listening to Lois. They really need to talk and make up. Conversation is key to this Lois & Clark. So far, they have just been acting. It reminds me of a song, yes, I always have song. laugh It’s The sound of silence by Simon & Garfunkel.

And in the naked light I saw
Ten thousand people, maybe more
People talking without speaking
People hearing without listening
People writing songs that voices never share
And no one dared
Disturb the sound of silence

"Fools", said I, "You do not know
Silence like a cancer grows
Hear my words that I might teach you
Take my arms that I might reach you"
But my words, like silent raindrops fell
And echoed
In the wells of silence

Catching up on my feedback...

Interesting to see some A-plot coming in here. Great chapter, as always.

Thanks for the FDK, guys smile

dede, you're quite right about the talking thing. And about Clark not listening. And I'd say their big fight was a combination of b and c for him. He wasn't willing to listen to Lois's words and more interested in his own interpretation of events.

Beth, thanks and yeah, the A-plot just snuck up with the whole hostage-thingy. Not that this is going to become an A-plot story laugh
