fic: A Constant Struggle, 2/2

Beware of sap. (And falling typoes! [livejournal.com profile] gnine tried to give a beta but we're both still under the weather and easily distracted.) I'm terribly fond of this variation on Lex and the Clex, so this is likely not the last you'll see of this universe. Or Conner, because he is really far too much fun.

Smallville: A Constant Struggle, 2/2 {5,467 words}
PG-13; AU futurefic, Static Shock x-over; mild Clex and V/R
Robert and his boys are invited over to family dinner with Lex Luthor and three generations of Kents.

Read it on AO3

This was so delightful. I enjoy your portrayal of Lex, the supervillianhero. And his relationship with Clark and his family is exactly what Lex needs to keep him on the hero side. I think the way how you convey that he would be a supervillian in fact if not for his personal ties is genius. He knows this. Clark and Jonathan know this. He needs them. Martha is teh goddess. I thought that using Robert's viewpoint in the story was inspired. We saw and understood the complex familial interaction of the Kent-Luthors.

I hope you don't mind but I'd love to friend you. LOL, this way I can keep up with your loverly fic and eljay comments.

Yeah, all Lex really needs to go...well, not straight, but good, anyway...is a little help from his friends. And it is terribly entertaining to get a glimpse at such, umm, odd family dynamics through an outsider's eyes...

Please feel free to friend, welcome to the flist! ^_^
