nice

Okay so i came across this story today, and i love it! I hope you continue with this! Its such a good idea to make Lex have brain damage and him faking it! Great! Hope you continue with this

I absolutely adore this story. Well written and absolutely intriguing. Wish you'd write a sequel to it. At any rate, good job and keep it up.

Very good story. Take THAT, Lionel! :-)

This is terrific! I love the way you do the characters!

Wow. Very clever plot twist. I've read the diehard. Awesome writer just like you. Would be nice if the SV writers took a page from this fic and followed suit. I was so hoping Lex was faking it in Shattered. I did enjoy a caring Lionel and his gloating when Lex ran to him instead of Clark. But then again, I am an unreformed Lionel junkie. Nice Work.

Bah, I only prodded you to write more. ANYone would have told you that! Can't blame or credit me for that! You did make it even more brutal, Lionel alternating between guilt and care and the accustomed viciousness, Lex's pretense ("rocking for hours") a stark delineation of the extent of the role-playing he's set himself to. We could even wonder if Lex's mis-step on the stairs was a deliberate attempt to get Clark to reveal himself in front of Lionel. Evil! Evil! If only the show or the comics had writers like you...

I hope you continue with this story. I also agree that Lex is fine, he's jsut ** with everyone. I love Lex!
