Title: Popsicle Soup
Author: Krys Yuy
Category: Smallville
Prompt: #36/popsicles
Rating: R/T (mild)
Word Count: 3,428
Summary: It’s summertime and Clark comes up with a mischievous way to cool down. Or heat up, as the case may be. Shameless fluff. Set in or post-Season 9. Free Fall universe compatible.
Pairing/Characters: Clark/Lois
Spoilers: None.
Disclaimer: I own none of the characters used. This fic is purely for entertainment purposes only.
Author’s Notes: Written for the Summer Food Challenge at [info]12days_of_clois. Set in the Free Fall universe, but can be read as a Smallville standalone. You need no knowledge of the FF universe to enjoy this story. However, FF readers may read this to get something more out of the Free Fall universe and the relationship between Clark and Lois. This is just a simple piece of fluff for readers to enjoy. I don’t know what it is about [info]12days_of_clois, but my muse really loves their prompts. Please read, review and enjoy~!

Please note that the following is Rated R, though it is very mild and is more likely PG-13.
Crap, why did you bring out so many? Of course they’re going to melt in this heat! )

THE RULES:

1. Pick a food prompt and go with it. :) Wherever it leads you. It's food! It's summertime! Have fun! (Thanks to [info]ancarett for the food challenge idea, btw. She's the one who brainstormed for me a while back and came up with it. I just ran with her suggestion and grabbed the prompts we needed!)

2. Fics for this challenge must be at least 500 words, and can be no more than 6,000 words. There is no rating limit, but if your story is rated higher than PG-13, you must post a visible content warning. Any variation of the Clois 'ship can be used in your submission for this challenge...this includes Clois from the Movieverse, TV, comics and books.

3. Stories must be posted @ our community under a LJ cut. No fake cuts, please! I ask this because [info]12days_of_clois is a community. By definition, a community is a group of people in one location, sharing similar interests and a fellowship. If an author leads readers away from the community to read his/her story, we will lose this!

4. There are no specific deadlines for fics, aside from the ultimate goal of finishing all fics by 11:59 EST on JULY 15, 2009...AND NO LATER. What does this mean for you, as an author? Well, it basically means, when you're finished with your story, post it! No dates will be assigned this time around. Authors may begin posting stories at midnight EST on JULY 1, 2009...BUT NO SOONER.

THE DEADLINE HAS ARRIVED!!

Sorry that a few of you weren't able to make the deadline. :( I understand how it goes, but I'm going ahead and closing the 'Somewhere in Metropolis' Challenge.

And I'm hoping to post details about the next challenge tomorrow! *fingers crossed that it all comes together by the afternoon* ;) See you then, everyone!

Title: Jumpline
Author: htbthomas
Category: Smallville, post-Season 8
Prompt: #17/news stand
Rating: PG
Word Count: 2,097 words
Spoilers: for Smallville Season 8.

Author’s Note: Finished in the nick of time!

~o~o~o~




When the bright light and nauseating spinning sensation ended, Lois found herself on the floor of an empty office. She sat up, blinking, and tried to figure out where the hell she was. How the hell she got here could wait for later. )

Title: Must Be Tuesday
Author: [info]brdwaybebe 
Category: VERY loose movie-verse
Prompt: #24 - Train Station Platform
Rating: PG
Word Count: 3115 Oh thats right, I broke 3000. Woot!
Summary: Lois finds herself in trouble. Again.
Spoilers: None
Author's Notes: Look Bisty! Look!  I made it with hours to spare!  WOO HOO!!  Thanks as always for being splendiferous!  Originally this was going to be a much more serious prompt, but as it unfolded it got lighter. Much lighter. Maybe even too light lol. Normally it's one of my peeves how Lois is always getting into trouble and risking her life counting on Superman to ALWAYS save her. Just because for some reason I tend to side with Clark on this particular issue.  But apparently the muse was setting all that aside for today and have a little fun with it. This is a very loosely canoned fic.  No identities revealed, their relationship is definitely not all business and there is a definite flirty vibe goin on.  Anyway!  I hope you like!

Author's Notes: Wow, that was a close call. After thinking that the deadline was ten days later than it was, we squeaked this one in just in time. Thanks, [info]bistyboo1974 for posting that warning post. :D And the events that occurred between All I Want For Christmas and this fic were written in throughout Little Secrets.

So I don’t care if this is crap, this is it! No more! Not only is there practically no time but I couldn’t put up with it anymore either. No beta either, sorry.

To the thirteen authors out there still working on stories...YOUR DEADLINE FOR POSTING IS FAST-APPROACHING!! Not to stress you out or anything. ;) But seriously!

ALL FICS MUST BE POSTED BY 11:59 EST ON JUNE 20, 2009!! There will be no extensions granted this time, no matter how good the excuse. I want to get a new challenge rolling after this one expires, so that's that.

Good luck and happy last-minute writing! *blows kisses*

Title: Crisis Averted
Author: [info]alphielj 
Category: Movieverse/Superman Returns
Prompt: #10/elevator
Rating: PG-13 for language
Word Count: 4.855
Summary: “I can’t do this anymore, Lois,” I admitted.  “I can’t keep fighting with you.”
Spoilers:  SR and all of my own Shadowverse
Author's Notes:  First - thanks to [info]htbthomas  and Eviefan for the beta read.  I know it’s been years since I started this AU, but it still eats at my brain.  I’ve hinted at a moment in another fic where Lois sees Clark holding a baby.  Well, this is that moment.  It’s also the moment when things start to shift for Lois in the way she eventually forgives Clark.  I really debated between showing Lois’ PoV or Clark’s for the fact that I really wanted to tap into how things change when he eventually speaks up for himself.  So keep that in mind when you get to that moment.

For those of you unfamiliar with my AU, this story takes place just after Jason’s son, Eric, has been born.  After 20 years of not knowing the truth, Lois knows the full truth now and is very angry at Clark.

Title: Clark and Mobsters Prefer Pink
Author: [info]starrylites
Category: Movieverse - REEVEverse omg
Prompt: #11 - fitting room
Rating: PG
Word Count: 2000
Summary: Lois needs to go shopping, apparently for work. Clark, naturally, is picked to be the guinea pig that goes with her.
Spoilers: Well, if you haven't watched Superman II and know nothing about the Niagara Falls incident, I guess maybe?
Author's Notes: My title has something to do with it being far too late for me to be posting this...but it's growing on me. It's amusing. This is my very first attempt at writing Reeveverse, so be nice, hah. It's Post-Superman II, and it fits in with III and IV, I guess. It's really just meant to come a number of months after II.



Shopping with Lois, Clark realized, took more bravery and stamina than rescuing her from a falling helicopter, or from being buried alive by an earthquake, or from an Eiffel Tower about to blow up, or from cascading over Niagara Falls… )

Category: Smallville
Prompt: 19 - Phonebooth
Rating: PG
Word Count: 1,209
Spoilers: For Doomsday. So, basically, everything Smallville is game.
Author's Note: This goes on the assumption that Lois didn't disappear into thin air by touching the Legion ring in Doomsday.

All things considered, Lois was amazed it was still standing.  )

You don’t need to read that to know what’s going on here. Thank you [info]hanaktfor giving this the once over. You’re the best! *hugs* So, on with the story..!!:D
