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...you don't need details to make it work. Just give us Clark and his *changes*, you know? Like - when Lex comes across him, things he says, does, *is* will tell us...everything.

I hope i'm making sense. But yeah, you don't need to go step by step through everything. Just maybe...like Clark getting up in the morning and he's still dressed, shoes *on* 'cause they got stolen once and he heads out, it's early but the commuter rush leaves a lot of empty tables and untouched/barely touched food at some metro-link station or something and he's tidy enough after a trip to the public bathroom to pass as a student and he can scam somebody's leftover bagel and schmear if he hurries... That kind of thing so we get the idea that he's been doing some hard things but he's okay or...however he is. You know?

*hugs you*

However it goes, i know it'll be good, bay-bee.
