I love this! I'm glad he said something to that little snot of a woman! She needs to back off Clark's man.

I was glad he got to be cutting to her as well! It was very hard to keep him from saying something so pissed it was out of "Brucie" character, even. Glad you enjoyed it!

Not that I read slash, but that was adorable.

Well, I won't call attention to it if you don't. :)

*resists the urge to jump and down and yell "teh_no commented on my fic!"*

Glad you liked it!

Aw...

So sweet.

I love that Clark listens all the time to Bruce, needing the comforting familiarity of the sounds of his breathing and talking and even his teeth grinding...

*grins*

LOL, I can imagine Clark thinking to himself, "Ah, the adorable way he grinds his teeth! How I love it" :)

Glad you enjoyed! I love writing Kal in the Fortress, for some reason...

awww... I liked the line about Clark barely needing oxygen.

I think wwhat really struck me about this piece was how evocotive you could be simply describing the sounds. it's an unusual perspective to take but you pulled it off very well.

Thanks! It was a weird challenge to just have the sounds--I hadn't really realized that was going to happen until I started to describe Kate's clothes and realized, no, that wasn't going to work. :) I'm relieved it worked out!

I feel you should know that I checked my email, saw that I had some comments from you, and immediately rushed to refresh my flist to see if you'd posted any stories. And you did! And a wonderful story it is. :) I love the idea that Clark never gets sick of Bruce, that their bond is that deep. And I'm impressed that Clark resisted flying over there and smacking that floozy. :D Really, the self-control of both of them is astounding, that always impresses me even more than their powers.

Typo: twice in the year and a half

Aw! *blushes* Um, happy to oblige?

*nods* There is, under all of Kal's insecurity about many things, a sort of bedrock certainty about their relationship that I find endearing and reassuring. I'm glad that comes across as well!

Oh, and thanks for the typo catch! The beta has been penciled in for another flogging.
