Ripley let out an excited yell as she pulled a huge bag from Metropolis' most famous toy store from the back seat. "Look Daddy, look what Unca Jordan sent me!"
She was holding a bright red truck, nearly as big as she was.
Lex grinned at Clark and said, "Do you think your dad will let her keep it?"
This is just about the funniest thing. EVER. :)
This is STILL my favorite story. You just do everything so right here.
And as much as I don't want to see Clark dating anyone but Jordan or Lex, he is a bit of a, well, for lack of a better word, whore.
Lex, so noble and dignified and HOW can Clark not see? But he doesn't.
And Lex so just wants him and Ripley back... oh, that almost hurts that he's bending so far backward to make things easy for Clark.
And that Jonathan GETS what Lex did and why--that is such a masterstroke.
Lexie listening to the tapes and yay, my heroine! She should go after Lex. Someone needs to, or those boys will do their own stupid idiocy forever.
Oh, I forgot that she reacts to the news of Lana's death and Lex takes it so badly, but he does the noble thing. Ouch. My heart hurts for him, but YAY.
Ripley to the rescue, because they just can't SEE.
HAH! "UncaJor" and his Shi--dang. :D Love him!
"Your dad..." He shook his head. "Some day, you're going to meet someone who's gonna be the most important person in the world to you, and if they have a good soul, nothing they do, or are, will frighten you."
Made me cry. So good!
And Yes, Clark IS a Cornball. ANd I can SO see him laughing with popcorn in his teeth. Bahaha!
Fire. Flash fire. Haha! *cheers Ripley on!*
*chokes* "...All his skin was off." *dies laughing*
Little Irving and Greg. eee hee hee!
And Lexie embarrassed at the sight of her dad's "old" truck. *snerks* (yeah, been there done that one!)
I am glad Lex allowed himself Aaron, even though Aaron's a clark-substitute. It just feels better that he did.
and I read and read and--Lex getting furious was beautiful and frightening and I can see his eyes glowing. He's been so good for so long.
Clark calling Lex, making him admit at least a little that he wants him back. "Come home." Sad and poignant, and such a relief.
*sigh*
I love this next bit SO much. 10 years of make-up sex! YES! And you are so lyrical and beautiful about it, because it's tender and funny and sweet and then rough and wonderful. *loves*
And I love that Jor and Ripley get Lex thinking about Clark's abilities just as Clark is doing somthing with them, YAY!
And that he took jonathan up--Made me cry again. Perfect moment, perfect because it's something about Clark that he shared with his father, who would so appreciate that. And funny, I didn't want it to be Lex up in the air, that first time; Much as Lex has been there for Clark, I think Jonathan's (in your story!) had maybe a tougher time in some respects and yet his support was unwavering.
But yes that Lex was second? Who else could it be?
Hah. Black and purple bat falling from the sky! Hmmm!
and Lying recipe pictures. WORD. They DO.
Irving is just so precious.
Okay. Again I just adored this all to pieces. *HUGS*
oy, you made me cry. I'm just sitting here all snively and wet. thanks so much! I can't stop reading your feedback--it's like being hooked up to a great big old battery and getting charged up again! You're so good for my raggedy sense of self-confidence. *HUGHUG* Thanks again for reminding me there were some really good bits in this story! Weird how it went from being a show of support for Hero into being the birth of one of my own fav characters! *SHMOOCH* you're so very kind to me!
You deserve every word. Seriously. And -- you know, I really don't think they (clark and lex) ignored the whole ethical issue of Lana's death. I think that Clark just forgave Lex. FINALLY. I mean he did put poor lex through how many years of hell? Lex paid, and in full, and yeah, it didn't go to a court, but wtf? How is that to happen? Lexie and clark's alien-ness would come out. NO. Defeats the whole purpose.
Bahaha!!
