030 ♕ Dead Zone report update + an important PSA [written]

[loisfuckinglane]

[Lois can't help but feel like it's not a coincidence that the second she got done putting the finishing touches on her Dead Zone report update, she finds out Lex Luthor has shown up at the castle.  Paradisa really seems fond of those sort of karmic backslaps, and the deeper she digs, the more retaliation she's steeled herself to expect.

But if the

[First thing's first.]

When do you think you'll reschedule to, Lois?

Rin;

[loisfuckinglane]

Once we have a clearer idea what's going on with Lex. I guess he's in a coma right now, but somehow I doubt that's gonna stick.

Lois;

[payback]

... That's who got Kara all upset.

Can I ask, what did happen with him?

Rin;

[loisfuckinglane]

Got it in one.

[Oh God, where to start]

How about the time he turned my childhood sweetheart into a mindless supersoldier assassin? Or the fact that he was funding illegal research into human cloning for his own twisted personal ends? I investigated him for years, but he had enough money and power to stay eight steps ahead of me, no matter how many murders or dirty secret projects I linked him to.

[A pause. Eep, this sounds bad - no wonder people are mad.]

So, definitely one to watch out for. How volatile is he?

And... uh, how'd he end up in the coma?

Rin;

[loisfuckinglane]

That depends on when he's from. He sort of went further and further off the deep end over time...

Clark thinks he's from just a couple years back in our world though, when a erm, building of sorts collapsed on him. Which would mean he was at the full height of his crazy.

Lois;

[payback]

And he picked a fight when he got here?

Rin;

[loisfuckinglane]

Not exactly. He's in a coma - and stuck there, for now.

Lois forever;

[payback]

But he wasn't when he got here, right?

Rin forever;

[loisfuckinglane]

That's how he showed up, I think.

[payback]

That's a new one... weird.

[loisfuckinglane]

Now it's a waiting game.

[payback]

At least he should be initially easy to contain.

[loisfuckinglane]

We're not sure tossing him in the slammer right away would go over well with residents.

[payback]

Still... ample time to warn everyone who needs warning, right?

[loisfuckinglane]

That's what we're hoping for.

Anyways, I wanted to talk to you about Five and if you think he'd be a good choice.
