Okay, I did watch Descent, after reading a spoiler that made it pretty much required watching. Hey, that was a good episode again. I think there's no way around it, I'm going to watch the rest of S7.

Descent reaction, but pretty quickly devolves into long, long meta about villains in general and the state of Lex's sanity in particular )

Lex may not be sane in the "well-adjusted, productive member of society" sense, but he's sane in the sense of "I know what I am doing and I stand by it." That, in my opinion, is the pre-condition for true evil. If Lex's motivation is truly the "greater good" or something far more selfish, remains to be seen. But he *has* motivation, he has a conscience, and he makes choices. He is a villain, but he's also a man, not a monster.

Woah. Stuff happened. Action took place. People were kickass. Everyone looked pretty. The story made sense. There was continuity. Storylines that had been dangling for seasons were resolved.

This is one of those episodes that make you sigh and think, "That's what Smallville *could* be as a show."

I just wonder what's going to be the season finale after this.

This episode had it all: Clarkdickery, Petedickery, Lanadickery, Lexdickery, random superpowers for one episode, complete lack of logic. Very Silver Age Superboy.

I didn't hate this episode, but only because it was so utterly ridiculous.

A very belated Fracture-coda. I haven't yet written anything for the other three episodes and don't know if I will, but this was easy. It's pretty ambiguous - some of you will think it has a happy ending, but I'm not so sure.

Title: Reset
Rating: PG
Characters: Clark and Lex, subtexty, but could also be read as friendship
Spoilers: Fracture
Summary: After his trip into Lex's mind, Clark finds himself with company in his dreams, pieces of Lex clinging to him. He goes to Lex to stop it.

I didn't intend to write a sequel to Except Batman, possibly, that one time, but that's how it goes. This one is probably less funny, but on the other hand it has threesomes and Stargates and Lex in a dress.

Title: Cops and Robbers - Ten Easy Steps
Rating: R, swearing and slash
Fandom: Smallville/DC/Stargate : Atlantis
Pairing: Clex, hints at permutations of Clexana, Lex/Kara, Clark/Lex/Bruce, InsectQueen!Lana/female alien
Genre: still crack
Prompts: [livejournal.com profile] medea_aries asked for Lex and dancing and possibly glittered up. [livejournal.com profile] xparrot wanted Lex meeting Rodney. I doubt either of you wanted this.

[livejournal.com profile] lukita asked for : The Tenth Doctor meets Lex

This is Smallville's fault, for being the show with the most clones ever. We will ignore the fact that "The Sound of Drums" would totally have happened differently in the SV/DC 'verse, because, you know, Superman vs. Toclafane. (Wow, imagine that fight!)

This would have spoilers for "The Sound of Drums/The Last of the Time Lords" except you'd have to have seen the episodes to get it. And knowing the Rani probably helps.

100 words, G-rated.
Summary: Lex meets the last sons and daughter of Gallifrey.

One day the soon-to-be Prime Minister of Britain walked into Lex's office and cheerfully proclaimed him his species' foremost cloning expert. In hindsight (at least there was no amnesia), the "species" part should have clued Lex in.

Then a brilliant homicidal British lady with glasses arrived. After the inevitable affair, she laughed derisively at his proposal, slipped a ring off her finger and dragged him to the lab, where they encountered a blue box and a skinny ranting Englishman who hugged the reborn Prime Minister and the lady.

Lex was already on strategic retreat when they started threatening each other.

All in all, very fun! Good writing :D

Fracture was good, but too serious and complicated to comment.
