A Heart Whose Love is Innocent by Coren Lee (R)
Fandom: SMALLVILLE
Pairing: Clark/Lex
Length: 132 K
Author on LJ: -
Author Website: Coren Lee fanfic site
Why this must be read:
Too many fics depict Clark as somewhat dim, overtly innocent and not up to par with Lex' wit and IQ.
Well, I am not lying, I do like my naive and innocent Clark, but Coren is one of the few writers, who is writing Clark as an absolute equal partner to Lex, without having him to loose his charms!
And just seeing how they both worked together to totally outwit Jonathan Kent?? haha, priceless!
Clark's voice started to drift towards them, and Chloe could see that she wasn't the only one trying hard to listen without actually making it obvious she was eavesdropping.
..."Yeah, but for Plato, reality is simply the shadow we see cast by some greater mechanism we don't see, and different kinds of greater mechanisms can cast the same shadow."
..."Well, Einstein never accepted quantum dynamics either, you know that."
..."Okay, but what about two negatively charged particles that repel each other? Quantum dynamics states that the repelling force is that one of the negative particles exchanges an energy quantum with the other negative particle, and they each go on their merry way."
..."Yeah, but that's not the point. How can the first particle know where the other particle is in order to exchange an energy quantum if they aren't in each other's sphere of influence yet? And if they are already in each other's sphere of influence, then they should be aware of each other by already having exchanged an energy quantum in order to influence the other?"
and this is the other reason, I absolutely adore this fic: the way, Clark, Lex and the Kents *talk* about what happened to all the meteor mutants, that have crossed Clark's path on the show
"Um yeah, dead."
"It's okay Lex, I already knew that."
"And you're okay with it?"
"Lex, they kidnapped you, tied you up, and had a gun to your head. What do you think?"
"I don't know, I guess I thought that it would upset you or something."
"Hey," he said, pulling Lex to sit beside him and linking their fingers together. "Those mutants that terrorize Smallville - how many of them do you think have survived? I don't like taking life. I think it's precious and wonderful, but if someone is threatening those that I care about then I'm not going to sit back and do nothing. If it's you that's under threat then the stakes are even higher. If I could have brought them back to face trial I would have done so, but I wasn't about to risk your life because of some abstract notion of justice."
this is the kind of future Superman I want to see: not lots of pathetic heroic platitudes and excuses, but a fair dose of effective pragmatism.
