Set After Season 8's "Committed"
Couples Explored: Lois/Oliver, Clark/Lana, Chloe/Jimmy
Ending Couples: Lois/Clark, and the others are up to you guys. I'll let you decide.
Summary: Everything through Season 7 happened and Lana has been gone. Lois and Clark have been working on stories together and getting a little closer. Chloe and Jimmy's wedding is drawing ever closer and Lois is a little jealous of their happiness but mostly happy for them especially after what they went through at the hands of that psycho that kidnapped them. One difference between the show and this RPG is that when Clark lost his powers/was human after the destruction of the fortress, he found he needed glasses to see. Even after he got his powers back, he felt a need to continue to wear them, although they are no longer prescription. Everyone has gotten used to seeing him with them.
The embarrassment Lois is still feeling over the whole confession that she loves Clark makes her a little more prickly around him, even though she feels she covered it pretty well. It couldn't have really been true could it? She couldn't be in love with Smallville! Clark is a little confused as he starts thinking about how he would have answered the question if it had been him. Before either can sort out their feelings while they continue to cover stories, Lana comes back into town. Lois asks Oliver if she can be his date to a big charity ball at the museum that she wants to cover. Lois and Clark are a little bit jealous of Lana/Oliver but decide that's the way it's supposed to be.
Meanwhile, Oliver helps to guide Clark down his true path to destiny, becoming Superman. Clark already feels that he's supposed to be helping people but Oliver tries to convince him that it's more than that. He needs to be out where people can draw comfort and hope from him. Lana is against the whole thing, telling Clark that he will never be able to have any sort of normal life if everyone knows his secret. She feels that she could live with him always having to put the world first if only he keeps it a secret. Clark is torn and that alone says a lot.
Lois and Jimmy are on the trail of trying to find the mysterious do-gooder that seems to be helping people all over the city and Chloe is trying to keep Clark's secret, stay true to her guy and still plan for this wedding, not to mention deal with the side effects of what's happened to her since Brainiac.
I want to pick up with Lois and Clark working together on their next story, Lana coming to town and Lois hounding Oliver for entrance to the charity ball. As we go along, we can decide if Lex is found or whatever. I really want Clark to go on his journey to becoming Superman in this if possible. We will probably diverge from the show greatly.
