Oooh, this was just lovely! The freedom of it, the exhilaration! So many chest-bursting emotions, it seriously gave me chills! ♥

Oh, thanks! Mmm, flying is so fun to try and capture, I really enjoyed the challenge!

I love the images you use. I can feel myself flying with Clark and experiencing his joy.

Thanks! I always love to imagine how it would feel for him to fly, I can't imagine it ever gets commonplace...

Oh, that's gorgeous, just heart-stirring and beautiful. You definitely have a handle on flight! :)

It's one of those things we all love to imagine but none of us can, so it's a fun challenge to capture it in words! Having his first flight be when he's an adult adds an unusual spin on it in the DCnU...

Thanks for letting me know you liked it!

This was so lovely! You captured his feeling of flying so well, how it was so unexpected but so amazing.

Thank you! I do like how the DCnU has it evolve from jumping first, and not get to flight until he's much older. It gives it all a rather different feeling...
