This chapter was sooo good! I love the dynamic created by Bruce not being able to speak to Kal. Thank goodness Kal seems to understand!
I know that there are enough terrible things in this world to make a person never want to speak again, or be seen again. I hope... I hope none of them have happened to you, though it may be in vain."
Awww. *wibble* I just love how caring and sympathetic and generous Kal is here. Yay for getting Bruce and Ace out of the cave! And Ace was so adorable here--I love how you describe all of his actions, the snuffling and the soulful eyes. So so so cute. *huggles the puppy*
All the descriptions were gorgeous--I could see it so clearly when Kal was blocking the entrance to the cave. And his sunny smiles and "frighteningly blue eyes" (such a good description of his eyes!) *swoon*
Ohh, and I love how you worked Martha in here as the kind serving lady, while Jor-El and Lara are the disapproving parents. That seems very in character for them. :)
This was a great moment, too:
He ate, barely registering the taste until it was gone. He came back to awareness with a blink
What a true description of being ravenously hungry. *grin*
And Bruce is being called Blaidd! Yay for nicknames that mean wolf!
