Wow. Thank you so much for the wonderful comments! As some of the IRC folc know, I've been pretty worried about how people would react to this.
Yeah, right, what should the Daily Planet's number one reporter do in the afterlife but chase after Superman, Watch him and Report, hmm?
Oh, Ann! You made me laugh with this! I hadn't actually thought about it this way, but you're right. Typical Lois!
Lois in angelhood is too cute though. She has her work cut out for her, following and Watching this super man. Lucky girl, she gets to Watch him shower! I can't wait to see what happens, this premise is too yummy.
Oh, Chriscy, what a naughty mind you have!
I'm sure there are rules that stop angels peeking at people in showers.
Marcy and Nicole: you both likened this story to It's A Wonderful Life. What if I told you that I'd never seen the film? Plus, from what I've heard about it, I have no plans that this story go in a similar direction?
Hopefully you will stick around, and I will keep you guessing.
Wendy: Lois isn't a guardian angel.
It's a small point, but an important one. You'll see why later on. Thank you for saying such wonderful things about this story both here and privately.
Yvonne: ah hah! Good you hooked have I? Excellent. (I'm rubbing my hands with glee here. Or maybe it's the cold...) You comment about a Miss Rowling is beyond flattering.
Karen, Rachel, Maria, Susan, Incognito, Julia and Jose: thank you all for commenting too.
Oh, and one last thing: I'm so glad that people like the bit about Lois's wings. I rather liked that myself.
Part two coming up.
Chris
