This story is coming along so well, Wendy and you're continually making me hungry as I read it. Ghiradelli Chocolate, Pancakes, toffee flavored syrup, I think I'm going to have to take my family to IHOP tonight.

Any way, they are working together so nicely, and Clark is coping well in his love, feeding the gal, proving what a good provider he would be, very instinctual, very masculine. And if he ever gets over that worry of hurting her, I bet he could figure a creative way to keep her weight off.

Wow gutter brain here, please ignore and continue to write well, though have a nice holiday too, just make sure you come back so you can finish up, and don't turn your nose up at any errant laptops you may have access too if you feel you mus post sooner during your holiday.

Nice part

Have fun in Dublin!

Hi,

Great part.

And then? And then?

Another absolutely fantastic portion, Wendy!

Well put.

I think this pretty much sums it up: .

It's so typical of Lois to point out something like this - proving that for some people, size matters.

Yes, Wendy, this was mostly a-plot, but it has to be promoted too. The next part better have some b-plot in it, though. <g>

Julie (the nag)

Mostly boring a-plot stuff?? No!

Love the original take on Clark v Luthor. Especially this:

A really smart Clark Kent. I like that. Or rather, smart where Luthor is concerned...

And the dialogue, Wendy! So nice of you. Flowed so well, felt I was at the table with them.

Now, of course they are meant to be together and their 'just friends' waxing on is a bunch of hoo-ha. But as the story unfolds I'll look forward to seeing how you bring them around.

Wendy, I've finally managed to catch up with you. It was a nice way to spend my weekend, reading such a good fic.

I like the premise with the original set-up. I'm not having any troubles with the slow peace it's moving at right now and the great B-plot. Yes, there's a lot of introspection, but I've never had a problem with that. There's also enough angst, and I hope you'll continue with that. No whams so far, but I'm sure they'll come in it own time.

Poor Clark, though. He's now not only haunted by his past with Lana, but also his recent experiences with Trask. Will he ever manage to get over it and see that he's capable of controlling his powers? And than there's Lois... Is there any hope for them, Wendy? You've really put them on eggshells this time!

Luckily, they do trust each other. I loved the insights you gave into Lois's childhood and the link to Henderson. The way you put it was even better than any conversation would have been. The reflection on what had been said with the immidate analysis on how it made the other feel was lovely.

And now we're moving to the A-plot. For once, Lois believes Clark's hunches and had time to think about it. Together they should be able to nail Luthor soon. But when is Lois going tell Clark about her interview with Luthor?

I'm looking forward to more of this, Wendy. Have fun in Dublin and post as soon as you're able when you get back!

Saskia

Well, business trip over and I'm back now. Thanks, guys, for your lovely comments!! CC, I'm particularly relieved to see that you liked this section! And glad you think my Clark is smart too.

Julie, I love that little graemlin of yours!

And Saskia, welcome!! Glad you're enjoying it so far - hope the rest meets with your approval too.

Okay, Part 7 coming up shortly...
