WHO: Take your pick of Lois Lane, Clark Kent, Jon Kent, Superman, or Superboy + you!
WHEN: End of August through to September Mission start.
WHERE: Etraya (various locations)
WHAT: A catch-all for running into the Kents, the Supers, or the singular Lane.
NOTES\WARNINGS: Specify which folks you're looking to run into in your subject line!

Do you run into one of them:

1. At the apartments near the Hospital? Find them on the top floor.

2. In the food stores (Kwik Trip, 7-11, Bangtang Market, the bot-run restaurants) scattered throughout Etraya? Snacks are at a premium for some of these guys.

3. On a rooftop somewhere in Etraya. Yes, even Lois.

4. Exploring the Daily Planet. It's the wrong one, but it's also what's here.

5. Down in the Catacombs. Why has part of Paris been recreated here, anyway?

6. Wildcard yourself anywhere in Etraya!

Billionaire is right.

[Unfortunately. It'd be nice if Luthor had fewer resources at his disposal back home.]

What else can you do? If you don't mind sharing.

[kryptonix]

I can generate shields and crystals, for instance.

[ he holds his hands up where two triangular energy shields appear. ]

[newsbeat]

[Well that is...definitely something Clark can't do.]

Looks like we've got more points of differentiation than I realized. That's got to be very helpful.

[kryptonix]

Helpful in a fight?

[newsbeat]

Helpful for not getting killed or grievously injured in a fight. That's step one for winning a fight.

[kryptonix]

[ he scowls lightly. ]

You think I could lose?

[newsbeat]

I think you're probably very, very tough to beat. I also know that under the right circumstances, anyone can lose.

[kryptonix]

At least I won't go down because of a rock.

[newsbeat]

[He sees the bait and doesn't take it, he is not offended.]

And that's a good thing. Anything that will keep you up and moving so you can do what you need to do is a good thing.

[kryptonix]

[ kell-el eyes skeptically. ]

But you're still . . . concerned.

[newsbeat]

Yeah, I'm concerned. Just as a general thing, not because I think you're not capable.

[kryptonix]

You don't need to worry about me.

I'm not anyone's concern.

[newsbeat]

Well, I'm going to anyway. I worry about everyone. Why shouldn't you be anyone's concern?

[kryptonix]

[ kell-el looks grumpy. or normal. take your pick. ]

I'm a weapon. I have my own priorities. Worry just slows me down.

[newsbeat]

[Six of one, half a dozen of the other.]

I doubt the thoughts in my head are going to do much to slow you down physically. But in that case I'll keep them to myself unless absolutely necessary.

[kryptonix]

[ he grunts. ]

That's fine, I suppose.

[newsbeat]

Okay, good.

[Good enough for him.]

I should get going — got to make dinner tonight. But I'm sure we'll see each other around.

[kryptonix]

Uh. Sure.

[ why? he doesn't know. this kind of behavior is baffling to him. ]

[newsbeat]

Because this place isn't that large and we're all meant to be doing the same thing, more or less?

[That's not the real, whole answer and Clark knows it, but he also knows that trying to explain it will not go anywhere right now. Maybe showing it will work better, later on.]

[kryptonix]

I do my own thing.

I don't need anyone else.
