This got me in the feels. Clark feels more like his comic version, which is appropriate for the contemplation he does here. It’s nice to imagine SV Clark could’ve matured into this.

Oh this was cute. I like their meet-cute, going over a balcony and being saved by Lex’s anti-gravity belt! Also, “Lex-Or”? I understood that reference!

Good plot that kept me guessing. In-character, sympathetic portrayals of the supporting characters despite their misgivings. A good amount of resistance from a Smallvillian Lex, but not to a tragic degree. They’re going to save the world, damn it.

This was sweet. Lex’s anxiety about Clark wanting the normal life, “seeing normality as the enemy”… feels kinda pre-crisis to me. Clark’s jealousy and Lex taunting him was also fun.

"It was 4:42 on a Friday afternoon in mid-March when Clark suddenly figured out how to defeat Lex Luthor once and for all."

Bookmarker's Notes
“For one of the most brilliant men alive, simple positive reinforcement had extraordinary effects on Lex’s actions. Clark figured it was because Lex had never gotten that sort of thing as a child. Try to hurt Lex, and he’d raze you to the ground; offer Lex even the smallest bit of affection, and he was yours forever. Clark had known that once. But somewhere over the years he’d forgotten it. Until last Friday…”

This is so cute, and gave me such bronze age vibes for some reason. Probably because the Niagra Falls stuff reminded me of the Donner movies, but it also felt like something from a Maggin comic at points.

Clark was sure that there were more unlikely people to find knocking at the door to his apartment at ten o'clock on a Friday evening, but he couldn't actually think of any.

This felt comics-y. I liked Clark second-guessing and backing off, especially since Lex didn’t remember the night at all when he woke up. That scene of him staring at the quilt and not knowing where he was was pretty funny.

Bookmarker's Notes
“Everything has changed. Except, not. Because Superman can't change, which means that Lex has to, if they're to take this beyond prison walls. And for Lex, change equals surrender. There was a time he would have done it without hesitation. If Clark had told Lex everything after Belle Reve, he would have given himself to Clark completely; Clark knows that now.
But that was nearly ten years ago and they've been through a lot since then.”

Omg this was hysterical… Clark and Mercy’s dynamic, the ocs, Clark being dense and stubborn but still charming and likeable, and Lex being a supervillain but this is treated irreverently and so is actually a fun element! (And they get married as Superman and Luthor 👀)

I kept thinking about how canon Lex x Kal is with YOTV… I liked this, Lex and his largely mute superpowered wildman on the island was a fun take on La Belle et La Bête. Also the Count of Monte Cristo reference made so much sense. Ofc Lex would identify with Dantès.

Bookmarker's Notes
Yeah this was good. Felt very comicsverse to me. I love that Clark is just down and sure that he wants it and Lex is the one who has to process and argue with him. Gave me post-Lexor vibes with Clark talking about how he thought Lex was going to come back for years afterwards. Also Clark having a Lex room is pretty in-character for him (in the silver age if nothing else).
