Woohoo! Great part, Wendy!

Martha's just wonderful, so sweet and she sees everything. I like the way she just trusted Lois, makes her talk and then adops her to the family. That's one hech of a mother.

And the start was great too. It makes so much sense for Lois to think the Kents will hate... and it's such a nice surprise for her to learn they don't and to see they knew about Lana all along while she doubted it. Maybe it'll help her to talk about Claude with Martha too.

But this part is really missing something. You know... something like, oh, a WHAM! For about the last 10 parts nothing happened except nice waffy stuff and wonderfull smoochies! Bring out the angst again!

Oh wait, we might get that with Clark's first appearance as Superman... and then there's Trask...

So where's the next part? I've got lots of time to read it while waiting to my copy of Harry Potter! /me wants more WLMC!!!!

Saskia (die dit als een gewoonte is gaan zien, maar zoals met alle gewoontes nu eens niks weet te zeggen... niet dat het wat uitmaakt aangezien je er toch geen donder van begrijpt in deze geweldige taal <eg>)

LOL! Bulldozer Martha in action!

I love the way Martha just takes over the conversation and leads it in a way that Lois is not expecting.

Great installment, Wendy!

Irene

Hi,

Great piece. Want more about what happen at the farm.

More soon, please.

good part, wendy. not much surprising.. lois is afraid, clark is afraid, martha knows everything (she's pretty observant, especially when it comes to her son), martha loves lois, etc, but it was well done. waffy, though not in the traditional smoochie sense.

good work, and, though i've been commenting sporadically (bad paul!) i wanted to let you know that i've been reading and enjoying every part. looking forward to more.

Paul

Wonderful part, Wendy, although they all are. I loved the way Martha reacted to Lois, and it's nice to see that they're developing a strong relationship. The characterization of all the character is spot on.

And I just loved this line:
Waiting eagerly for part 27,
Caroline

Aw very sweet segment Wendy! I am looking forward to more. Laura

Great section, Wendy . I loved the smoochie when Lois and Clark landed in the field and I also really loved Martha's reaction to Lois -- she instantly went from protecting her boy to adopting Lois as a daughter.

These are some of my favorite lines:
Very good point! I definately don't see that being a conversation he would want to have over the phone -- especailly with the way that cordless phone conversations can be picked up on other phones.

LOL!

awww! I love your description of the kitchen -- it is both sweet and accurate. The contrast between this kitchen and Lois's kitchen is very well written.

Waiting anxiously for part 27!
Alicia

Again Wendy, another great part!! )

Hi, Wendy. Great part as usual!

Lois has a typical fear of meeting the parents of her boyfriend, afraid they'll hate her.

But of course Martha surprises her and accepts her into the family.
She also surprises Lois by already knowing about the Lana incident and how it scarred their son, even though Clark never told them about it.

It's always entertaining to see how a surprised Lois reacts.

So WHAMs in the next couple of sections, maybe?

Look forward to part 27.

Hey, finally caught up with this section... good stuff, Wendy. Nice homey atmosphere on the farm, and that's classic Martha.

Now, let's bring on the spandex!

See you!


PS: Now I'm all ready for lots of smoochies in part 27!

Wendy

WOW! A wonderful part!

I love this story and look forward to reading the next part.

Tricia

Yes, I think everyone's already said everything that I wanted to say. Martha was, of course, typically Martha - just wonderful. I loved the conversation with Lois and Clark on the way to Smallville, perfect reactions from both of them. And a lovely *confidence-boosting* kiss before going into the farmhouse.

And although I'm not calling for it the way Saskia is, I'm sure that a wham is on its way soon...

Looking forward to the next part, even though I'm having problems keeping up with the stories these days...

KathyM

Great part, Wendy!

Loved the Martha/Lois conversation - she sure has a way to put everyone at ease.

The smoochie before going in farmhouse was wonderful - loved that little bit of passion before facing the folks!

More soon!!!

Missy

Yep, this is earlier than usual, but I'm about to go on holiday and won't be back until the middle of July. And I didn't want to leave your wonderful comments unacknowledged before I went.

I'm delighted that everyone seemed to enjoy the Lois/Martha scene. I hadn't originally planned to write a Smallville scene, on the basis that the costume-making and so on has been done many times before. But so many people said that they were looking forward to seeing Lois and Clark in Smallville and organising the costume that you persuaded me. Anyway, hope you like the rest of it, too.

Thanks so much, as always, Saskia, Irene, Maria, Paul, Caroline, Laura, Alicia, Shelley, Roger, Pam, Merry, Meni, Tricia, Kathy and Missy. I'm sorry not to go into detailed responses to your posts, but I still have to finish packing and I'm being yelled at to come offline soon...

See you all in two and a half weeks' time!!


Wendy (off to California again and very excited!)
