This is totally awesome!! I really cannot wait for the next installment. :)

I've been wanting to write a road trip with Clark and Bruce for ages, but couldn't...come up with any reason a man who could fly and a man who owns jets would do a road trip, lol. Then I realized this AU actually made sense for it! Yay! *grin*

Thanks for reading and commenting!

I've been wondering about the Amazons. Yay!

Both Themyscira and Atlantis are in a sort of uneasy truce with the Kryptonians...live and let live, mostly. It's definitely uneasy, though. You can probably imagine Diana's actual take on this one. :)

Yay! Some Friday afternoon goodness.

Even if you did make me spit tea across my keyboard at the mention of marriage to Dianna. I wasn't expecting that one!

Nicely rounding off of this arc and intriguing hints of the next :D

Hehehe, poor Kal. Nothing like a good dynastic marriage to throw things off... *pets him*

Glad you enjoyed! This arc was a real roller-coaster ride for me...

Oh, you sneaky thing! When I asked about Diana you never hinted she would be appearing. ;)

Hmm, I think Kal could stand marriage to her. ;)

Though I wonder at Hippolyta! Must be practical politics. *grins*

I'm looking forward to this road trip and Kal possibly meeting the 'operatives' along the way. :)

*sighs* Though waiting so long for the next update is going to be hell!

*grin* I was pretty tickled by your question, though!

The Amazons might be wanting a potential information-gatherer "on the inside" as well....

I've been looking forward to writing the road trip for a while! I didn't expect to have so much time to write it, though... *sighs*

*laughs* I'll bet!

Hmm, that's a good idea. And at first Diana isn't going to like Kal at all due to his Master status, unless she and her mother are in contact with the Rebellion and know he and Kara are agents, too.

Well, look at this way. When you start posting again, you can have a nice backlog! :)

I just can't wait to have a chance to write him as "Clark." :) I think it'll be good for him, to have a human aspect he can access...

And the Amazons! They were fun to reference. Now I have to figure out how Diana figures in the last arc. :)

Thanks so much for the comment! *hugs*
