Clark had been flying around the city, his normal patrol. He had stopped by Star Labs, made his rounds, but he had one inkling left. A quick view of the city and he saw her

Superman looks over the skyline and thinks. "Where have you been staying?" he asks, not sure where to go. He never took Sharon to the Fortress. He wasn't sure how much she remembered of everything.

She's not sure what he wants. But whatever Superman wants, she'll provide. She'll do whatever she can to help Superman, no matter what.

It's been easy to do that. Thinking about her own life...
She looks out on the skyline of Metropolis.
"Honestly, Superman... I... don't really know."
