FINALLY, she posted! (FDK) And Back Again, Final Part - 11/28/03 08:27 AM
OK, I've just read it - slowly, savoring every word - and like Wendy, all I can say right now is wow! And I need time to be able to string two thoughts together, so I'll post comments in a bit...
And a while later...Well, I don't know that I'm coherent yet, but I'll try. CC, this was incredible. Absolutely magnificent, wonderful, fantastic, I'm running out of adjectives here, I should pull out the thesaurus. I totally loved every minute of it, even when my heart stopped beating and I was tearing out my hair when Clark was kissing Lane or when Tempus showed up at Clark's...
...or when he had kryptonite (of course) *and* a gun (why not?) filled with kryptonite bullets (well, duh...) My heart had skipped any number of beats during this whole section, and then when we found out that Lane was shot it literally jumped right into my throat. I was right there with them all through their panic as they didn't know what to do for Lane to make sure they didn't put her at further risk. Very powerful.
A wonderful conversation between the two Clarks. I just loved it, and then came Henderson. What an absolute delight. When Bill first arrived, I had totally forgotten that he *knew*, so the significance of what he was seeing didn't dawn on me either. I adored this entire scene - absolutely perfect.
And then, finally, the reunions. ::sigh:: I liked how Lane lets alt-Clark into her heart, and lets him know that she's done so.
I really liked the idea of the blood tests as well - and how Clark didn't need it to know that the baby is his. The entire scene in the elevator was absolutely lovely, completely waffy, and made me blink back any number of happy tears.
Re your Author's Notes: Once again, I'm honored that you cite one of my comments as a source for your ideas. However...since it seems that you used my comment as a stepping stone to introduce the concept of Clark's attraction to Lane, I just want to make it clear to all of my fellow readers that I am not responsible for ANY of the kisses that Clark and Lane shared in the pursuit of this concept. That was all CC's idea. I knew nothing...
But I know an incredible story when I see it. Thank you *so much* for sharing this with all of us. And I am ready for your next story, any time, anywhere.

“So, you’ve told other people?” Superman turned to Clark, the excitement in his voice hard to disguise. “And that’s been…ok?”
“It’s nice, actually,” Clark conceded with a smile. “And I didn’t actually tell him.”
“Not in so many words,” Henderson put in, studying Superman with an interested eye. “He’s a little taller than you, maybe. Or younger.”
