Twelfth flight - video

[ Clark hasn't appeared on the network for a while now, but when he appears he's smiling, and rightly so, pushing his glasses up his nose. So awkward. ]

Wedding preparations are in full swing. I always knew it was going to be hard work, but I didn't realise just how much there was to do. It seems like there isn't enough time in the day any more. All the time I'm spending on the phone to florists and caterers, you'd think the phone company should be paying me.

It's stressful sometimes, hard to find time to shoehorn the romance in--and wasn't that the whole point in the first place? I don't suppose anyone has any tips? How do you make time for sleep, let alone your poor neglected fiancee?


[ Of course this post is a cloak so that he can get in contact with Cass and Tim. ]

We need to talk. You both know your way into the cave, right? Meet me there just before evening sirens.


Private to Conner Kent

You're family. There's something I need to ask you.

[ He nodded slightly. ]

They're about all I have time for recently. What about...presents? I don't know? Gifts certificates for spa treatments, something like that?

[fightswithpurpose]

If they are personal and something you know your fiancee would appreciate, you could try that, too.

[ He nods, but then frowns again. ]

Do you know a lot about this kind of thing?

[fightswithpurpose]

Not a lot, but in the one relationship I did have, actions always spoke louder than words for us.

[kal_el]

Words are always a lot louder with her. I mean both of us. We're journalists, so it's sort of our thing.

[fightswithpurpose]

What about a love letter, then?

[kal_el]

I see her every day. [ He's such a man. ]

[fightswithpurpose]

If words are a shared interest, then taking the time out of your day to write her a short letter would mean all the more, would it not?

[Seriously, what's the point in asking for help if you're going to shoot down suggestions? Still, she'll persist a little. Nelliel has a positive enough opinion of him to want to help where she can.]

[kal_el]

[ He pauses, just really thinking about what she's said this time, biting his lip. Maybe she does have a point. Still, he has a bad record with love letters. There was that one Chloe had written to him... ]

Maybe. I'll think about it.

[fightswithpurpose]

Pack her a lunch for work with a short letter beside it.
