This is my favorite Lionel representation- ever. This version of the ‘Magnificent Bastard’ is simply stunning. All of jenn’s fan fiction is good, she’s a fantastic writer with a great vision, but this short story just kicks me in the gut. It grabbed me from the start: “Call at five am, and it was the one he’d waited for every night since Lex’s fifteenth birthday, since that first time that should have been a blur of memory by now but didn’t fade even for the brandy bottles downstairs.” Jeesh- it’s so good, it makes my teeth ache. An added bonus is the way Lex ends up in the hospital- because I always thought it was a lot more likely to happen than is normally portrayed in fanfic. Great story on all levels, but particularly for its portrayals of a man who loves his son so much he hurts- and the son who will probably never know it.
