What were your problems with its plot, Michele? I think I had one or two, but they were bitty.
We gotta go to the crappy town where I'm the hero!

you tend to need less SV knowledge and the basics of Superman canon you picked up from Saturday morning cartoons for that.
Oh cool! Because I have Superman knowledge. I just don't anything about the show aside from, you know, that it's Superman.
I will mark this one to read later. Thanks!

Like I need a hole in my head
I was in Boston last fall and got to see Nutty and some of the Somervillains but we never found time to hook up with the suburb-dwelling Sficcers.
Too bad! Come back soon and we'll subject you to the Boston Sficcers' craziness (including the secret handshake).

Um, white-fonting for Demarcation spoilers. Not so much a complaint about the plot as a confusing-mechanics point:
There's no explanation at all of how Lois and Clark got to Salter's office to track the paper trail back to Dominic, and thence to Lionel. Then there's a mention early on of a guy named Peterman who's attached to the toxic-waste scandal, but he doesn't show up again. I thought at first that the two executives were the same guy, but they're not.
That's what I'm talking about.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
I'm very impressed that you can focus on any of the plot in that story. I usually get to the sex, lose all chance at coherent thought, start to regain it, get to the end, and melt into a slashy love puddle.

Well, you know, I'm a trained professional. Don't try this at home, kids!
Also, on my nth reread just now, I'm noticing some weirdness in the time when Lex gets shot, but it took me how many rereads to get past Oh my God! They've shot Lex! Those bastards!. So, yeah. The last, say, quarter of that story makes rational thought unpossible.

Hee! A new Smallville story from Lanning, set in the Identical universe. Christmas schmoop!
Clark snorted. "Don't give me that. Every kid reads Dr. Seuss."
