Wow! This was great, Saavi! :)

You took poor Clark's angsting and made it into a bit of a twist there at the end, with him just walking around like anybody else and maybe having fun!

Like the mention of Bruce. ;)

You really described the scene very well. Mmm, candy apples! :)

Thanks so much, hon! :D Clark definitely needs the chance to just be himself.

I adore this - and I agree with the above comment that you did a nice job with the ending. Halloween would be the one night that Clark could be himself! Love it! :)

[saavikam77]

Thanks so much! :D I just couldn't bear to leave my poor Clark all depressed. Poor guy.

*sniffles*

Oh, poor woobie Clark!! *huggles him* That hurt a lot.

Thank you for sharing! :)

[saavikam77]

Thanks, hon! My poor Clark needs lots of huggles.

Poor Clark!
This brings out all the sadness of SR. To be the Worlds Greatest
Hero and be so empty. Sob. No wonder he's depressed. The
secret can be a terrible burden. I'm glad he has his brooding Bat
though!! Huggles!!

[saavikam77]

Thank you so much! Yeah, this Clark can definitely pawn his brooding off on Bruce. :p *hugs him*

Awww, poor angsty Clark! But what a great idea to have him be just a man in a costume for a night. ♥

[saavikam77]

Poor guy needs every chance he can get to be normal. *pets him*

Thanks, hon! :D
