And just like that

Yep, up all night again. But this time, I'm putting insomnia to some use, purging some post-Exodus fic from my soul before I lose my chance.

He had a second chance, and I knew. It wasn't the same as my own.

*sniffle* Poor Lex! You know what makes me ache the most about this? Lex thinks he's having his "second chance", but it seems his hesitations and fears are just trapping him in the same mold he's always been in -- no, Lex, don't waste your second chance! *whimper*

You know, I really shouldn't read SV fic this early; I'm waaaaaaaay to emotionally volatile and easily overwrought in the wee a.m., but... damn! Honey, as always, you floor me.

Thanks, sweetheart. {hugs}

Thank you, sweetie. It'll be okay. You and I both know that this is the only way they can be together. Lex wouldn't *want* it if Clark didn't seek him out and give it to him. He would never know for sure if he went after it himself. And Clark will... just give him time. :)

Man, you're right. I shouldn't write at this hour either! ::shakes fist at drugs:: I *am* going to sleep sometime. And I'm calling the doctor today because really, this can't be good for me! Hee! (can't you just hear it? "Doc, I was writing weepy Clex at 4am!! Take me off these steroids!!!") *g*

love you, darlin'

That was just... shivery and great. I really enjoyed reading it. The imagery was fantastic and the emotions were so real. What a sad, beautiful story to wake up to.

Thank you, honey. I hate writing sadfic, but if I let myself take things to this level, tptb will have a hard time making it worse than I can.

Hmm, sadfic for the sake of making S3 seem more Clexy? How sad is it that I'm so anxious about S3 that I have to resort to sadfic as a defense mechanism before the season even starts? Sad, sad, sad!
*g* thanks for reading, babe!

Hey, if you ever want to resort to defense mechanisms (either by coming up with worst-case scenarios or making our boys fall in love), feel free to message me. Speaking of which, I hope you don't mind I added you to my AIM buddy list.

*smooches*

Oooh, thanks, honey! I'd love to play with you sometime! I'll add you, too when I get on aol again - I'm about to go try the sleep thing again. Did you add yaypie or alaxl? I'm rarely on alaxl now.

I have a couple of friends who left their computers on all night who are going to wake up to some sillyass ims from my dead-of-the-night goofiness. Hee! What? It's their fault for falling asleep while logged on! *g*

Plus, written in the wee hours when just about anything makes sense.

The first fic I ever wrote was in the wee small hours of the morning. It's not *totally* cringe worthy, but it does still mean something to me. Uh, my point *hee* is that early morning fic has a special place in my heart. It has this... I don't know, honest vulnerability to it.

I absolutely adore this. It's sad fic with a chance of hope. And the dream sequence is so passionate and lyrical.

While I prefer that you sleep, I can't say that I mind the work you do otherwise. *smooches*

Thank you so much, sweetie. I called the doc, who says I'm to stop the steroids and hope the Leviquin isn't what's causing the insomnia. He's also told me to get some Benedryl because that will knock me out.

But I'm wired. I don't really WANT to sleep now. I have a zillion ideas about a zillion things. Like my brain's on puree instead of blend. Then again, I'm getting all shaky and thinking in extremes (like, gee, I sure do need all new shoes, don't I? and golly, I could drive a couple of hours to get a really good peanut butter milkshake, couldn't I?), so I guess I'd better follow doctor's orders. ::sigh::

And oh man, when I start considering hitting my neighbor up for a ride on his bike, I know I'm not well. Okay, Walgreen's, here I come!

::hands you some ben-gay::
Ben-gay, the all-too-appropriately-named Clex ache cream.

Oh god, I need to sleep. Seriously. I have the 2am giggles at 3:30pm! :)

I'm sorry I made you ache, but I promise it'll be okay. It'll always be okay with our boys. ::happy sigh::
