Haha. Leave it to Lex to turn a situation like that to his advantage. This was awesome!

This is so awesome!!! It was hilarious and hot, and I LOVED Lex's plan and him just savoring how flustered Superman is and how different from usual. LOL that Clark can't control his heat vision. And Mercy was great too, especially how much Lex respects her brutality lol.

Thank you for writing this cracktastic, hilarious, wonderful fic :)

I'm so glad you enjoyed this :D It was fun to write! I was just in the mood for a fun clex prompt :)

This is absolutely fabulous. Grins, actually I would love to see how Superman deals with the fallout. Laughs, or even more interestingly how both of them deal with the Clark angle. Chuckles wickedly. This might be crack, but it's the funniest thing I've read in a while.

Sighs happily. Great stuff. -slvrbld747

Oh, this was great! I feel kind of bad for Superman, since I can just imagine him stammering and blushing his way through interviews after this. I'd love to hear Lois's pointed questions!

But I do LOVE how Lex approached this. That's my mad genius! :D You captured his ego, his temper, his obsession with Supes, but his intellect and savvy took center stage here. And when I remember how Clark used to manipulate Lex on the show, I can't help but do a little victory dance that Lex got the upper hand here.

Nice, cracky job.

Oh, thank you for such nice comments :D I'd hoped the crackiness of this wouldn'ty make Lex and Clark come off as ooc, so I especially appreciate that you saw so many aspects of Lex's character in this.. I'm really glad you liked it!

Glorious and delicious and delightful and utterly cracktastic.

Lex is just so ... and poor Clark is so very ... um.

I loved how Lex is all about photogenicness and making himself look good and figuring things out and really very smart in an evil genius with pretty good people skills, generally speaking, sort of way. And nothing at all like he's being portrayed in the RPS, except when he really kind of is (on purpose, obviously).

And I love how Clark is, yes, still Mr Smallville in some ways, and Kal-El and the Man of Steel in others, and almost as horrified at accidentally killing Lex's drinking glass as he is at discovering people are writing sex stories about him with Lex.

Thank you, dear, for the nice review :D Hee hee. Yeah, I was going for a Superman regressed to his Clark Kent of Smallville days by the shock of what Lex has revealed to him throwing him off his game :p I'm glad you enjoyed it!
