Boppy's Journal

Oooh, Boppy, this is lovely! The song is such a perfect choice for them (and I'm now imagining a fic giving Lana's POV long after Superman becomes famous: reminiscences from the girl who isn't part of the public legend). I love how you've matched moments from the show to the lyrics -- "my truth" with Clark taking her to the Fortress stands out in particular. I have to laugh at the idea that you're trying to lay off the meta; "heavily meta" seems unavoidable here, since the emotional tone of their relationship is completely shadowed by the audience's meta-knowledge. Theirs is a relationship infused with so much melancholy, because they're NOT the destined couple even though they keep trying to be -- and you've definitely captured that wistfulness here. *applauds*
