"He had excellent health, a gorgeous and wonderful wife, three fantastic kids, a job he enjoyed and didn’t strictly need, as well as an extended family that included Superman."
Richard is such a Geek. With a capital G, at that. Only him would think of Supes at the metaphorical cherry on top. *grins* *hugs him*
"Despite the unease he felt knowing that Luthor was causing chaos for the rest of the world to throw him off, a bright spark of hope flared in his chest, and he gave a small smile as he went about the task. They were close now. They had to be."
Kal-El smiling? Have I read that right? *beams* That is all sorts of awesome. The hero's got back his mojo. *does happy dance*
"Wincing from the pain she was just now starting to feel, she sat there and caught her breath. Just you wait, bitch. You’ll get yours. This isn’t the end of this. Not by a long shot."
And Lois has got hers back as well. *smiles* *cheers*
"Combat training was years behind him, but some things stay in the memory. Perhaps most of the family had forgotten that Richard was a military man; he never had. He had signed up both to serve his country and to learn to fly, but they’d taught him far more than that."
Richard... He's layers upon layers, that man, but damn if I don't like this knight-in-shining-armour side of him. Seriously. If I could only be so lucky as Lana... I'm not even asking for the superhero, just the regular, decent kind of man. *sighs longingly* *holds him tight*
"Too late, out of time, and Jason had no other choices left. He screamed in desperation, 'Dad, help us! DAD!' "
And the cat's out of the bag, my dears. My, isn't Elise in for a spin now... *comforts her*
