fic: those wacky billionaires

[xparrot]

I dashed this off in all of an hour; gnine was going through "Justice" looking for shots for her latest art, made a comment about Oliver and Clark; I retorted with something I've been saying about Clark for a while, then realized it was a fic waiting to happen.

Smallville: Looks Like a Billion Bucks {1,387 words}
PG-13, Clex, 6th season, silly
Clark has a significant revelation about certain moneyed acquaintances.

Read it on AO3

::cracks up madly:: Dear god, this is priceless! ♥

Hee! XD

Clark squinted across the crowded dance floor. "Then why does he keep giving me billionaire looks?"

"What looks?"

"Billionaire looks," Clark said, gesturing covertly. "With his eyes going up and down and then focusing on my eyes, and the little smile. It's how billionaires look at people."

Oh, god -- this would explain so much. *falls over laughing* Love Clark getting clued in by Lois. Love him testing his approach out first, even if it's on Oliver. Love Lex's reaction, first to Clark's abrupt appearance, and then to his unexpected proposition. And now I can't help wondering if Lionel was also giving Clark billionaire looks.... *still laughing*

[xparrot.livejournal.com]

I've had this theory about Clark's total oblivion for a while ^_^ And yeah, Lionel is totally a billionaire looker *shivers*

Glad you liked it, even with the Oliver-inclusion XD

i love how Lex's part is fractionally darker - just hint of angst here, but it's visible.
and everything else? hilarious. yes yes oh God yes indeed.
thanks!

(it's without_names, btw - finally got around to getting fannish lj, so not-so-suddenly-delurking)

[xparrot.livejournal.com]

Oh, 6th season Lex. You even angst in crack fic!
Glad you enjoyed it ^_^

[stitcher2ficcer.livejournal.com]

I can't.... comment on this. The amount of crack you're on worries me!

[gnine.livejournal.com]

But it's the HAPPY crack! C'mon, you know you looooove it ^_-

[myownghost.livejournal.com]

oh, how delicious! poor ollie, but i think lex is about to find the Meaning of Life. *g*

[xparrot.livejournal.com]

I suspect so! XD

[mskatej.livejournal.com]

*LOVES*

This was completely delightful, and the ending turned me on. *claps wildly*

[xparrot.livejournal.com]

Hee, and yay! ~and they lived smuttily ever after~

[danceswithgary]

I knew I shouldn't have read this at work. The office is giving me 'the look'. *still giggling*

[gnine.livejournal.com]

Heheh, I know how that goes...not sure if it's better or worse when your co-workers are all Japanese, then it's, wow she's weird!...but, then again, she is a foreigner so...

[xparrot.livejournal.com]

Glad you enjoyed it! XD

[elychari.livejournal.com]

[xparrot.livejournal.com]

Glad you enjoyed it! ^^

Thanks! ^_^

[morganlilah.livejournal.com]

Hee! Hihihi! Hihihihihi!

I’ve been quietly following your SV fics (love the SV/Static Shock xovers, BTW) but this has got to be my favorite. Cannot wipe the huge grin off my face :D

[xparrot.livejournal.com]

Hee, glad you enjoyed it (and the Subterfuge fics!) ^_^

[hangebokhan.livejournal.com]

OMGZ! LOL! Liked it a lot.

[xparrot.livejournal.com]

Thank you~! ^_^

[mahaliem.livejournal.com]

This was wonderful!

[xparrot.livejournal.com]

Thanks so much! ^_^

[norwich36.livejournal.com]

Billionaire looks! Hee hee hee. This was hilarious and hot.

[xparrot.livejournal.com]

Hee, I'm glad to know it was smexy XD

[supercaptain182.livejournal.com]

Yeah! That was so much fun. *g*

[xparrot.livejournal.com]

Glad you enjoyed it! ^^

if you're going to pull some idiotic Bible Belt homophobic dumbassery, I'm going to boot you.
Lol, Lois.

recorded and registered with the time and date, with the infinitesimal portion of his brain still capable of taking stock of such things. The rest of his barely functioning intellect was occupied with launching his body up and out of his chair and towards Clark.
Oh, I love it. Of course Lex would jump at the chance. :D I love Lex thinking that Clark is there to kill him, then getting his bones jumped, and I love Lex taking note of he date and time... such a weirdo woobie.

[xparrot.livejournal.com]

Of course Lex would jump at it, he's not crazy! (He just needs the date & time for his secret diary, of course XD)

[clarify.livejournal.com]

*laughs!* Oh man, that's too awesome. ♥ I love how Clark is sexy and shy at the same time. Very well done. ♥

[xparrot.livejournal.com]

Clark is such a delicious innocent XD

[dogwoodblossom.livejournal.com]

This is freaking awesome. Such perfect Clark. All the issues in SV would be solved if Lois or somebody would just whap him upside the head with the Clue Stick.

Also I think it's hilarious that Clark dials faster than the speed dial.

[xparrot.livejournal.com]

I <3 Lois, she can solve all of SV's issues if properly applied, I'm convinced. With the loss of Clex being the biggest issue, naturally.

And hee...I'm just wondering how he didn't jam up the phone! ^^

[lukita.livejournal.com]

I want whatever crack you're smoking, it'll be really helpful right about now.

[xparrot.livejournal.com]

*passes pipe*

[asphyxi.livejournal.com]

"Yes, yes, oh God yes," Lex heard himself say, recorded and registered with the time and date, with the infinitesimal portion of his brain still capable of taking stock of such things.
Oh dear god. Time and Date! *lmao*

Thank you so much for giving us this lighthearted and fun fic in these dark, dark times.

Looking out for more! [mind if i friend you? ♥]

[xparrot.livejournal.com]

6th season is way too dark. But the Clex will see us through!

And feel free to friend me, welcome to the flist, and I hope you enjoy the fic! ^_^

[voldything.livejournal.com]

hee! so much love for this ♥

[xparrot.livejournal.com]

thanks! ^^ (hee to your icon!)

[blue-gold.livejournal.com]

man the crack the sheer amount of crack *billionaire looks* bah ha ha ha Clark is so dense so much of the time.

[xparrot.livejournal.com]

Clark is either pretty uncaring, or dense as a brick. I prefer the second explanation ^_^

[ljs-lj.livejournal.com]

*sporfle*

*flails*

[xparrot.livejournal.com]

XDDD

[yma2.livejournal.com]

Sweet, funny and yeah, utter crack. Oblivous Clark is great and shocked Lex is awsome. So much love for this little gem.

[xparrot.livejournal.com]

glad you enjoyed it! ^_^ Yes, Lex is pretty much in the best shock of his life...

[tasabian.livejournal.com]

Everyone is so cool and funny in this fic! Lois patiently explaining the facts of life to Clark; Ollie sweetly hoping for a cross-ocean booty call; and of course, Clex, finally doing what they've desperately needed to do for six years.

Perfection!

[xparrot.livejournal.com]

so glad you enjoyed it! ^_^ ultimately the Clex will win out over all forces opposing it...Clark's complete oblivion being one of the majorest forces XD
