Oh, no! *fears for them*

The cover's gorgeous, Val!

[danceswithgary]

I'm afraid things are going to be tough for them. *sigh*

Thanks!

Okay. You have me hooked. Awesome start. BTW, the cover is absolutely beautiful. The colors work well and the merging of the fire with the flower is both symbolic and entrancing. The pictures of the boys are nicely down as well. Lex looking down and Clark looking up works as a commentary on their characters as well as the placement of all the elements.

[danceswithgary]

Thanks! In addition to searching for the 'right' title, I find that constructing a cover helps me solidy the direction I want a fic to take, so color and structure are as important as the elements I include. :-D

Wow... I'm hooked! This looks really good, Val. Hope that we get to see more of it soon since I'm now all worried about Clark and company back in Smallville. Great start to the story!

[danceswithgary]

This is one of those oh-my-god-it's-eating my brain fics, so it should move quickly. :-D Thanks!

Ooooh -- awesome start to the story, and I have no doubt you'll take it to places I never imagined. *bounces excitedly* I especially love the last two paragraphs. Beautiful cover, too!
