[Jinx looks excited. So excited that she might explode if she doesn't tell anyone and everyone why. Meanwhile, Gabriel is in the background, leaning against a wall and looking like the cat who ate the canary. Oh, he's smug.]

I have an announcement-- [She stops herself and looks back at Gabriel, her grin only getting bigger.] We have an announcement to make. Last night, Gabriel proposed to me...

[She shows off her left hand and has to contain a squeal. What the audience should be turning their attention toward is her recently acquired fashion statement.] I said yes!

[As if everyone in the Port is too dumb to put two and two together, she just has to add:] We're getting married!

[From the peanut gallery:] Never let it be said that I didn't make an honest woman out of her. [A beat.] ...Well, sorta.

[That's about the point Jinx twitches. Not because of the sudden competitive side in the woman. No. Because of Clark. Suddenly, this post is heavily encrypted.]

You know, uh, when two people are gonna get married they should, er, have full disclosure.

Just to be safe, Lois flicks a switch. She'll trust Batman or Chloe's encryptions before anyone else's. ]

I didn't know you were part of the club.

[Breath. Of. Relief.]

The first rule of Fight Club is having enough of a conscience to warn a girl she's marrying Superman.

[ So much raised eyebrow. ]

I'd expect first rule of Flight Club [ yes deliberate bad pun ] would be to not give away things without his say-so.

[ Protective Lois Lane is protective. ]

What can I say? It's the supervillain in me that just loves rocking the boat.

How'd you find out, anyway?

I have my ways.

I blackmailed the Batman for like four months last year.

...You have got to be kidding me.

Damn, I wish I'd known about that.

While Batman trained me in hand-to-hand combat, his charming alter ego was just fascinated with me. He'd send bouquets of roses to my dressing room, escort me all around the finest restaurants...

[She grins. Big.] I bought him his very first Siren's Port tuxedo.

[ . . . ] We never talked much, but... damn. That's kind of hilarious.

I was so over the villain thing, but he made this huge deal about me knowing his secret identity that I just couldn't pass up the opportunity.

[She chuckles to herself.] Then we sorta...lost touch.

Yeah, he's pretty paranoid. Got good reason, though, considering what home's like.
