More interesting, likely. Less frustrating... possibly not, since Shawn was all the way across the country. Equally frustrating in a slightly different way.

Her phone was ringing all the same.

She sighed and answered the phone without even looking at it. "I said I'd think about it, now let it be, okay? Come on, now."

Well. That was new. Shawn hesitated a moment as he formulated a response.

"... I feel like I missed half this conversation."

Lana sat up. "Shawn? Oh, God, I'm so sorry! Lex has been calling me all day to try and get me to come home to some stupid Halloween party he's having this weekend and I thought you were him again."

Stupid, of course, was a relative term given the thousands and thousands of dollars and A list guests who'd be there.

"I am planning a stupid Halloween party," he allowed... He just wasn't Lex. "And I'm guessing this means you probably can't come," he added. It was a little last minute, which was kind of his own fault.

"Are you kidding?" she said. "Your Halloween party I'd come to in a second. But I doubt I can borrow Lex's jet to get there."

"I can get someone to pick you up," Shawn promised. "I can't promise I can get out there, things are crazy right now, but talking nicely to a teleporter should work."

"Yes, please!" she said promptly. "I miss you so much and I'd love to be able to actually be with you."

"What excuse are you gonna use with Lex now?" he wondered, making a mental note to ask around for someone to go collect her.

"I'll tell him I got a better offer," she said with a smile. "And promise to come up for one of the holidays - so be prepared to get dragged along!"

"I'll be prepared," Shawn agreed with a chuckle as he shifted down in his chair. "Jordan can suck it up." One of the benefits of being who he was, it wasn't like he could get fired and easily replaced.

"Any costume ideas?"

She chuckled at that.

"Hmmm... Well, since I hadn't planned on doing the Halloween thing... No. You?"
