Oh my. Supernatural, Smallville...Thursday night is made of happy!

So, last part of my story made me kind of depressed. Silly, I know but there you have it. So, this next part is also very depressing even though little scenes keep spinning out in my head, I refuse to write them down. Or I write a few lines of dialog here, a little description there...I keep rewriting it to make it less depressing. Like, Clark runs away from home and ends up in Disneyland, with a tummy ache from too much cotton candy.

Hah. Hark at me, I'm insane!

So, here's the question, how realistic should I make it? Would it be undercutting the story to avoid dealing with Clark on the street? I know in the end it's my decision, but I was just curious as to what ya'll thought about it? He'll be staying with a series of people before Lex (OCs warning, folks!) and I'm not planning on taking a half year getting there. (crosses fingers and prays)

help a sister out?

I think at the very least you are going to explore the ways in which living (loving) on the street effect Clark more then they did on the show - I love Smallville at times, but I think they glossed over a lot of Clark's lost summer, or at least the psychological ramifications of Clark's need to run, and all the thing that he had to do to survive, before he started to knock over atms. And since this Clark can't knock over atms, he will have to suffer more and viewed through the lens of Clark's earlier molestation, you probably can go some interesting places.

You know I'm always happy to lend a hand - it seems lately I can go on and on about fics that I like.
