to gather up the necessary energy to proofread my next bits of my babyCLex fic for postage. It's been, like, forever since i've been able to work on it, what with life getting in my way (i'm five notebooks behind on typing up my notes for my various stories, counting 'Brothers'); but i finally got a minute to write on this one a week ago, was interrupted by life... Grr, and now i have something to post, but that means going back to do the meat and potatoes work of proofing, and right now i just can't seem to get my head into it. I do better when i have momentum, but RL just seems to always stifle me right when i'm getting rolling, and starting again... my heart has no trouble with dashing out story scene by scene, as long as i go with whatever moves me at the time. But cleaning it up to show to the world if I have to start cold...ugh. Rather be off passionately dashing out other scenes, sigh.

Pairing: CLEX, duh. Is there any other? (Shut up, y'all! There so isn't!)
Rating: I'm pretty sure this one's going to get to at least NC-17...but since we're starting at the beginning, with a rewrite of the truck-cab scene and it will be a babyfic for who knows how long, I think we're all safe at G for at least the first five chapters or so.
Word Count: I have no earthly clue. Twelfth bit here is at about 1270.
Summary: What if the Old Bastard died in the meteor shower? What if the Kents found Lex anyway (as is fated)? What would change? Would Lillian ever find out what happened to him, or would the Kents keep him? Either way, they'd likely remain friends. How differently would things end up, with the Kents' influence in Lex's life from childhood? How would it affect the Lex/Clark relationship and both boys' development, if they were friends who shared the BDS (big damn secret) from the start?
And so on. (God, i've been dying to do this for forever!)

(I wanted to get something here, since i'm overdue. There'll be more actual action when I have time to post after work tomorrow; some foreshadowing, my reinterpretation of the Ethan scene, and some scene-setting for when we get back to Lex (which will be hopefully within the next chapter). It just takes so long to proof, format, and etc, i ran out of time to do that with the rest, much less post these to the communities. Will do the latter tomorrow too. See you then. *off to bed*)

Brought To You By:: "So Far Away From Me..."

you try to write a scene where wee!Clark and wee!Lex are in a tire swing for the first time (I mean, how freaking innocent is THAT?!) and the language of inserting legs into the swing and etc just sounds dirty to you, even though the story is totally about KIDS (so far).

KIDS still!

Too.
Much.
Pron.

*headdesk*

Ah well. I shall forge on despite. I hope others will be able to read it in the spirit in which it was meant, and not think i'm overcorrecting my language, LOL. Maybe i'm just paranoid. I am SO not hinting at babyslash here, ppl!

We'll see when y'all read it, LOL.
