"Lois Lane. I work for the Wrestling Planet."
YAY Lois! And “the Wrestling Planet” :D

"Then why are you in a Metropolis airport?" Lane persisted, following him. "The DCW is the only game in town here."
Smart girl. :)

"So did you get grilled by Mad Dog Lane?"
:DD

"I hate being dishonest," Clark said.
Bruce slugged him on the shoulder. "I bet you didn't tell a single lie."
"I said I was in town to visit a friend."
"Well," Bruce said, "Here I am. You're visiting me."
:lol Loved this dialogue. :D

Or--wait, I know--the chauffeur needed your approval for some upgrades to the Lamborghini."
The mention of the Lamborghini is awesome! :D

"--The Flying Graysons!"
Great! :)

"Well," said Mary as Clark and Bruce hid their smiles, "You'll always be the Boy Wonder to us."
YES!

As it turned out, it was none of these things. It was instead an entirely bland set of beige boxes in a building of middling price, with no decorations on the walls, no photos, and only the most functional and Spartan of furniture. It revealed nothing about Bruce at all.
Oh well. :)

Clark drifted off to sleep thinking that if he ever found out when Bruce's birthday was, he'd have to give him some art to break up the monotony of those depressing blank walls.
Clark is such a sweetie!

Wonderful chapter! YAY for Lois and Dick! Worried about Dick's mom and dad. *sigh* Clark visiting his parents - it was great. And that mention about Bruce's foster father - I loved it! :D
Excellently done! Looking forward to the next chapter! :)

It was so much fun to get Lois in there!　　I wasn't sure when I started if she'd be in the industry or out of it, but it made sense to have her be an outsider, in a lot of ways...

And Bruce's Super-Boring Apartment, yes! No personality there at all...it was actually kind of fun to try to imagine a room that reveals nothing about its owner...

And yes, alas, being worried about Dick's parents is...not a bad idea. T_T I'm feeling really sad about it now! I don't want to write it!
