Fic: Vers: II: Memories

Parts: I | II | III | IV | V | VI | VII

- - -
Home is where one starts from. As we grow older
The world becomes stranger, the pattern more complicated
Of dead and living. Not the intense moment
isolated, with no before and after,
But a lifetime burning in every moment
               - T. S. Eliot
- - -

I never scratched out a place in the dirt and made memories there. )

Aw, you know how to break my heart with Lois so vulnerable and Clark so gentle and them being trapped on either side of this great divide.

Great update -- will eagerly await the next! How many parts does this story have for us to anticipate, anyway?

I'm not sure myself. I think it depends on how long it takes Clark and Lois to wend their ways towards each other.

The thing is -- would you believe I wrote this because I wanted to write something fluffier than my usual fare? It'll get there. I'm in total control.

Thankyou. ♥

I, this was just great. I absolutely love the angst involving these two and how it's not overly dramatic, but very real and weighty.

I can't say it enough - I love the way you write Lois. She breaks my heart but she's still completely awesome, which is perfect.

I also love how Clark is doing his best to look after her, which is such a Clark thing to do, but there's still some distance between them that has to be overcome - like a giant near miss, aka their relationship on SV to date.

I love your imagery as well, "kite-flying hands" is a perfect descriptor of Clark, I love it. I'm looking forward to where you take this in part III :)

Yesss -- they're so close, but they're still so far from getting there, and the closer they get to each other the more slowly they approach.
