danceswithgaryI'm having such a grand time researching for my two challenges fics, all sorts of cool facts about astronomical phenomena for one, and for the other, well, here's how the conversation with Gary went:
"I need two of the world's most expensive cars, two different models, how much they cost, some specs."
"OK, an Enzo Ferrari and..."
"They have to be new and reek of money, people have to be able to look at them and instantly know that they're owned by billionaires, you know, custom paint jobs..."
"You *don't* get custom paint jobs!"
"But, it's Lex Luthor and Oliver Queen and they're both after Clark and there'a a bet and eventually there'll be an extravagant gesture and the car gets blown up..."
"I am *NOT* finding you a car like that to blow up!"
He's still muttering, but he's looking for my cars. *grin*

Perhaps that's the car for Oliver Queen?

And my daughter gets involved, even though she won't read my NC-17's (see next entry).
I live in a very different sort of household. *grin*
