I don't wanna be abandoned
Characters: Clark Kent (not Superman) & OPEN
Date: July-8ish until Landfall
Location: TU-HAO (Clark's suite, and the radio headquarters)
Situation: Lois is gone. Clark is fine.
Warnings/Rating: Clark being an idiot?
Lois was gone, and Clark was fine.
They had both known it could happen, it had actually been really weird that they had both spent so much time together in this place. A lot had come and gone but they had held on, stuck together, they had been there for one another. But it was pretty stupid to assume it would be like that forever but he had hoped, because he always did, that maybe they could enjoy some years together in this place before ne of them got pulled back home and left the other behind. No such luck, and one morning he’d had to wake up and announce to the radio, to anyone that listened, Lois’ name amount the disappearances.
But he was fine.
Because she wasn’t Gone, the big G, the scary word. She had just gone back home, and that was all right. She had gone back to Perry, Jimmy, Cat and their actual journalist work. So Clark did his own work, and handled things as best as he could. Grocery shopping, work for the radio, try to keep up with friendships and such even if he wasn’t feeling like it at the moment.
Because doing otherwise, because mourning her would be egoistical, hypocritical and just plain wrong. Missing her when she wasn’t really gone meant wanting her back, meant pulling her back from their home into- into this. This war. And he wasn’t going to do that to her. So he went on with his day, a mask on his face.
So he was (mostly) fine.

no subject
He’s actually glad for the distraction, even if he could technically do that for hours and not get tired. Physically is one thing, but mentally he’s just like any non-alien human being. So he smiles up at the now-only suitemate, a tired smile but sill an honest one. “Do you need anything?”
