God, I'm so tired. This kind of Den Mothery stuff is so tiring, not least because I suck at it!

Uncaring and distant is not something I would peg on Clark, but it's something I've seen you play a little with movieverse Kal, and it's a nice reversal of the Light/Happy/Safe/Sweet/Warm-Positive associations or the Dark/Sad/ Dangerous/Bitter/Cold-Negative associations.

Oh, I do love this so much! Yes, and it ties back into the God things too--happy fluffy Christian themes aside, gods and angels are usually portrayed as terrifyingly aloof, implacable, inhuman (they are inhuman by definition!) And of course Clark could well be afraid of that. Bruce as the pinnacle of humanity, perfectly human, and the darkness as sheltering and protecting, are things I'm so loving right now.

Oh God, I have a meeting. And no time to eat lunch due to much email-writing! I'm going to sink to the bottom of the sea and curl up for a while soon...

Invincible! That story is so beautiful, Mina! *sighs happily*
