Hope this pleases.

I didn't manage to get it in within a week, but 9 days is almost a record for me, lately.

Whatever amount of time it takes, but don't stop. I finally finished reading all the previous parts.

Excellent writeup of Lois' recovery from her long strange trip to Kal El's universe and her balancing of the similarities and differences between Kal El and Superman.

Awaiting continuations,

OK, they smooched and she didn't freak out TOO much!! Great job Lois! There's some progress for her!

So sweet!

L,

I haven't been commenting much along the way, but I love this story. I was hoping for a new part today. And by far, this was wonderful! Can't wait for more. Can't wait until all her barriers with Clark have been breached.

Thanks everyone!

I have a huge deadline this week, and I'm sick... so I"m not going to be able to give a lot of effort to taking what I have for the next part and turning it into a real chapter. Nonetheless, I hope to post by Sunday, next week.

Yay!! Okay she's more confident!!

Wow... oh, I love this. They're making much more progress than I'd hoped for, but it's all handled very believably. They kissed! She kissed him! Even the part where she pushed him away was progress. And he's stopped being quite so terrified of scaring her with everything he says or does. So many great touches in this section -- I liked the point about how a goodnight kiss outdoors is less stressful than a kiss in his apartment.

Now I can't wait for his post-auction visit <g> You're using the auction to great effect in this story It's allowed Lois to realize what she feels and motivated her to express it, without being any sort of direct threat.

Can't wait for more -- feel better, and have a great week!

This instalment was all 'yucky' stuff, but I'll grant that it did show some progress for Lois.

Actually, it should have been a help to that progress, being that Clark and Kal would kiss differently. I can't imagine Clark, even in the throes of a more urgent passion would kiss even remotely like Kal. Kal is an arrogant selfish bully, and his kisses could never convey anything but a selfish desire for graticfication.

So, actually, I guess their kissing could be said to be a form of therapy for Lois.

Tank (who thinks that Clark might just find that idea of therapy a good thing too)

Wow, I just really love this story and can't wait for next week. I hope she gets the chance to go to our universe with Wells and see how happy our Clark and Lois are (with baby to boot?)

This story has been in the works two years huh? Glad you're keeping it going......it doesn't have to have an end....it can be our weekly Sunday soap opera of the continuing saga of ALTClark and ALTLois!

Hi,

Wow! Great part.

Yay I loved this Leela and I can't wait for more. Laura

Nothing like jumping into a story somewhere in the 40th part. But I was curious, and once I got the general idea, had to go back and catch up.

I'm with you now, and the wait is worth it. You are doing something fresh and wonderful, packed full of real emotion.

Just wanted you to know you've caught another reader.

WOW Leela!

Lois is definitely making progress, every kiss is a step forwad.

Love this part!
