Next chapter! Set in Tick&Tock world, and a slight reference to Tick&Tock, but nuthin' too important. Good luck.

"Hey, Supes!" Flash said with a grin. "I'm gettin' interviewed by your fan-girl!"
"My fan-girl?"
"Yea! Lois Lane and some guy. Mike Kent, I think. I'm gonna embarrass you soooo much!"
"How?" Superman asked, trying to hide his smirk.
"Tell them you sing 'I Feel Pretty' in the showers after missions."
"I don't do that," Clark scoffed.
"You do, now, buddy! I'll have Lois 'eww'ing you, and 'ahhh'ing me with awe and admiration within seconds."
"Good luck with that."

Clark got ready. He was gonna embarrass Flash. A lot. In front of Lois. He grinned, then entered the room with Lois.
"Hi, Flash. My name is Lois Lane, and this is Clark."
"Hi, Brad Pitt, nice to meet you. Oh! Sorry. Sometimes I forget about secret identities." He grinned, and Lois smirked.
"All right, Mr. Pitt, can I ask you a few questions?"
"Go right ahead, doll-face," He replied, his charming smile annoying the heck out of Clark. He was good.
"What do you think of the other members in the League?"
"Okay. Gl's cool, Wondy's adorable, Birdbeak's scary, Bats loves me on the inside, J'onn doesn't like people stealing his oreos, and Supes likes red underwear." Lois rolled her eyes- but not as though she was really, truly, annoyed, then asked,
"Which is your favorite?" Flash shrugged.
"Gl is super nice, but super strict...Wondy's cute, but doesn't get it when I flirt with her, and when she does, she glares a lot....Birdbeak hates it when I call her Birdbeak, and will kill me when this article is published....Bats just wants to kill me on a good day, and on a bad day- I shudder at the thought....J'onn is nice and all, but he can read your every thought- and he looks annoyed a lot with me....Supes is strict and a boy scout, but he's been my idol since I was a kid...I dunno. I love all of 'em!" He grinned. Clark was actually a little touched.
"You say Superman has been your idol since you were a kid?"
"Totally. When I was younger-" He paused for a moment, and his smile weakened. Clark had a quick flashback to when he had gone into the past. He remembered Flash's room, decorated with hand-drawn Superman pictures. As though Superman would guard that eight-year-old boy in his room. He inwardly winced. "-I- I liked him a lot. He was really cool. You know." Clark could tell Lois knew there was more, but she didn't ask more questions. Apparently, she understood there was a bit of pain laced along Flash's thoughts there. Too much for a light, forty-minute-long interview. He doubted she'd let it go, though.
"And Batman? Was he important in your life as a child?" Flash laughed out loud.
"Er-- as a kid, I preferred to hide from the shadows, instead of leaping in 'em. Bats scared the crap out of me. Now, I know he's a sweetie. I hop in the shadows all the time." Lois smiled. The interview went on for a while longer, another twenty minutes or so, and then police sirens came from outside.
"I oughta take that. See ya, Mike!" He said to Clark, who hadn't spoken once during the interview. He opened the door. Moments later, he returned, "Did I mention that Supes sings 'I Feel Pretty' in the shower after every mission?"
Clark just glared.
I feel pretty- oh, so pretty- I feel pretty, and witty, and gay!
I feel charming- Oh, so charming- it's alarming how charming I feeeeeeeel!
What a catchy song! 10:17 is pretty early. And I'm only getting up at four. That's enough sleep for FCAT, right?

NIGHT!
