Meredith, what a fabulous story this is!! I discovered it yesterday and eagerly read the first 4 parts, and now am impatiently awaiting part 5. Can you tell that I don't feel like actually working today??
So is the reason that Clark feels more confident and alive and positive in Lois's universe because Lois exists (well, now she's in Clark's world) there?? Lex is even more evil and creepy than usual, and you did a very wonderful job portraying him. He makes me shudder.
I'm glad to see that the Beanstalc managed to transport both of them (and we'll see if was safely or not - but it seems to have been) even though Wells warned that it could only be used with one person. Sometimes you just have to bend the rules, don't you?
I love Clark in this, and I especially love Lois, as well as Clark's admiration and enjoyment of this Lois, as he notices her readiness to fight as she puts on her feeble, weak voice. VERY excellent.
I hope you'll be posting part 5 soon.
