Wow, Julie! I remember seeing a snippet of this on IRC a few weeks ago and being desperately envious of this line:
the once praised Lois Lane had the instincts and judgement of a doorknob, as it turned out.
ROFL!!
Great, so revealing Lois-rant:
She took a deep breath. “I wanted to tell you,” she started slowly. “That I might have feelings for you. That I did, *do* have feelings for you. Only you cut me off. With your stupid lies, with your stupid, pointless confessions. With what *you* wanted. With what you thought was the right thing to say. Without thinking about what I might’ve had to say – you know, this is what you get for not letting me go first.”
And as for this:
They were the same person.
She repeated that to herself several times before the idea even began to penetrate her brain. It seemed as bizarre as saying Perry and Cat Grant were the same person.
Great line! And, yes, to Lois it must absolutely seem that ridiculous, that unlikely. People wonder why she never guesses, given how well she knows Clark and Superman, but of course why would the idea even occur to her?
And what a lovely, WAFFy finish! Understanding, I love yous and a smoochie. Perfect!
I hope this means we'll be seeing lots more from you, Julie!

I can't believe that you actually thought you'd get hate-mail after posting an angsty yet wonderfully WAFFy short story. We're the "perfect" audience.
