Why this must be read:

I'm a huge fan of Dayspring's, and I can make pretty much a blanket recommendation for any Smallville story she's written, but besides "Time and Chance," which I've previously recced, this is one of my favorites. In this story, Clark reminisces about his past and the development of his relationship with Lex. I love the writing here, and the plot twists, and the characterization of Clark and Lex. Clark is forced to grow up too quickly because of the closed-mindedness of Smallville and his parents when it comes to judging Lex. And Lex is damaged by his experiences in Smallville, but with Clark’s support and love, he recovers and their relationship is stronger than ever. Great story.
