She knows what happened, Clark. Besides, she'll have to see sooner or later.
Lois knows that squinty-look, and it reminds her that in here he can't use his powers (the time that he was in serious danger from Eshai springs to mind). It makes her hurt a little, because if he can't hear as he usually does, she won't be able to say all the things under her breath that they'd rather anyone listening not hear. Not to mention it just makes everything harder. If he can't hover--
That thought makes her feel a little ill, and she quickly shoves it aside, especially in favor of what he just said. God, she misses him. Misses his warmth in bed, hearing him say 'I love you,' home cooking (despite whatever she tells people about take-out)-- in this past year she's gotten so used to having him around more thanks to how limited the world is. This is jarring now.
Still, it's Lois, and when in doubt she will take refuge in snarkiness and faked arrogance. "Hey, well, I've got the helm at the radio right now. We could always get one in here and who knows, if I volunteer to do broadcasting you might at least get some of my dulcet tones."
No one would ever accuse her of having dulcet tones.
After a moment, "I take it your keepers aren't getting much entertainment, if all they have to watch is reading." Translation: how likely are they to be overheard or seen?
