The Planet graced each guest with something special. Something that they can hold onto from what they left behind. And that was the power to make your room look like anything you could imagine. When Lois would wake up every morning, it felt like she was waking up at her small apartment above the town coffee shop called The Talon. It was the only thing she had left to remember. Every little detail, every dish, every furniture, was all in place.. exactly how it would be if she came back to the real thing. Even though it replicates her home, there was something about the place that made her feel... empty. She was alone.

The determined brunette did spend the last few days finding ways to go back, she even did countless research about the planet. As of right now she knew where everything was, she knew that the resort can change dramatically as well. Lois was beginning to adapt.

Right now, Lois was sitting on her sofa.. her wavy chestnut locks were nicely curled and spilled perfectly down her back.. she wore an aqua coloured teeshirt with a pair of dark denim bootcut jeans.. She was seen holding a framed picture of her and her cousin, Chloe Sullivan.. celebrating a birthday together. She smiled as that moment from the picture was coming to mind. Oh they had a blast. She also remembered how she almost lost Chloe.. and that weakened her smile.. "I am not.. going to lose you again." She said outloud with each word very direct. Her eyes started to water.. but Lois chose to fight her emotions. Lois then realized something.. what if she wasn't the only one who was brought here from Kansas? What if Chloe was wondering around the building right now was we speak? Or Clark for that matter? It was possible.. and the only way to find out was to not be couped up in her apartment. She sprung from her sofa and set the picture back on the end table.

The future star reporter grabbed one her jackets, this one being a women's trench coat due to the crazy weather.. then decided leave her apartment and face the new world again from her old one. Lois felt extremely coffee deprived. It was certainly a substitute from her other habit, which was smoking. And she was not about to ruin all of her hard work-- because she ran out of cigarettes. Lois could easily get some more, but coffee was easier. She left her room building and quickly faced the rain and wind to walk over to the next building which held the Coffee bar and internet room as well as the sitting room. Pushing the doors open knowing well her hair was dampened and tattered from the weather.. but she did not care. She instantly sat herself up at the counter and removed her coat.

"Espresso, pronto." She said quickly towards the stone golem on the other side of the counter. And it was quick.. there was a small glass of espresso sitting infront of her in the next 30 seconds. She picked up the small cup and knocked it back despite how hot it was. It burned her throat and she probably shouldn't have done that. After she swallowed it down she released a nice

"Whoo!--Hold on there Stoney, I need a grande regular with cream and sugar." The stone golem did what it was told and delivered her beverage. Caffeine was like fuel to Lois.. it made her focus more, think straighter, and certainly more alert. Lois decided to take this one a littler slower this time.. holding the hot beverage to lips.. her hazel eyes sort of looking around.. the place was a little busier due to the chaos outdoors. Hoping to see a familiar blonde, or a confused farm boy..

Lois stood back up from her stool sorta watching him look around.. and the typical expression of clueless and boredom was plastered on his face.. She couldn't help but finally tell him.. Lois had her talents. One was determination.. She spent most of her days researching every aspect of where she was. She knew the place like the back of her hand already. A very useful attribute for a reporter.

"You do realize.. There are more things to do in this building then sit in the coffee shop.. In fact, from what I researched; the majority of the activities are held in this one building. So what do you want to do, stare at walls all day? Or I can beat you to a game of basketball over in the gymnasium."

The rooms were held in a separate building. Which Lois can't really access herself to at the moment. Clark was right about one thing though, the planet is supplying everything for them.

"However, I can name one thing that this planet hasn't supplied, fully, well yet. And that is.. our friends and family." Lois stared at him directly, this time being serious.. "That's why I was glad to see you. It gave me hope." Lois walked past him and started to walk towards a door leading to a hall way. She was making her way towards that gymnasium. If Clark was smart enough to relieve himself a little boredom, he would follow too. Lois was also leaving the coffee place, perhaps maybe running into more familier faces. It happend with Clark, it could happen again. And she felt the need to become active again. She really couldn't go for a jog at this certain time and in this certain weather.

"I..." he was about to tell Lois that he could plainly see that there were other things to do but he was looking for a way out. But then that would sound rather silly. So after a long pause of what might have been righteous indignation, Clark simply finished it off with "... I've only been here a day, Lois, it's not like I had the time to explore every inch of the place... not without being able to move faster than a speeding bullet, anyway..." It usually helped to exaggerate about what he could do, make it seem all the more implausible to someone who was watching him. Mild mannered farm boys weren't exactly what you expected to have the powers of a demi god, after all.

"It wouldn't hurt to shoot a few hoops..." Clark said as he watched her walk away. Then again it might be his chance to escape. One good dash and he could be out the door and gone... but then Lois might go looking for him. In fact, given that she seemed rather lonely without anyone that she knew here, it was a fairly good bet that she would go out in whatever to try to find him if she thought he'd been crazy enough to brave it. If someone else had been in danger he would have gladly taken the excuse to leave, but things seemed rather uneventful from what he could tell, save for the storm outside.

Sighing he quickened his pace to catch up with Lois, walking with her towards the gymnasium, noting how big it was. This place seemed a bit more private than the coffee shop, and had Clark been with Katara he might have been a little tongue tied about the situation. With Lois though, it was sort of like being around a relative more than it was being around someone he was interested in. Sure, there'd been a few times when seeing Lois' body had impressed him, but personality mattered way more than looks, and Lois was unfortunately infuriating when it came to personality, so much so that he barely gave her body a second look.

And imagining he felt the same he didn't think twice about stripping off his shirt. It was still soaked to the bone, and he couldn't exactly dry it with heat vision with Lois watching, so he hung it from a bench instead. Giving Lois a rather fine showing of his muscular back as he set down the shirt, and then walked over to one of the racks that held basket balls, dribbling one a few times. Thinking about it, it might be good practice for him to play Lois... a chance to keep his powers in check and make sure that he wasn't showboating too much in a game. Physical sports were the hardest, because it meant having to not use any of the gifts that were available to him with a side thought.

"Seems like the best time for you to play me, anyway..." Clark said with a slight smirk, knowing it would get Lois' goat to hear him brag. "I mean, no one around to see you lose..."

Once they entered into the gymnasium, Lois pulled out a single hair tie from her pocket.. and gathered her chestnute wavy locks into a pony-tail.. If they were going to play sports, it was easier to have her hair up. She turned to notice that Clark took liberty into removing his shirt. Lois tried not to become too impressed by his well toned physique.. so she looked off then back to him.. then her eyes shifted away.. then back.. For god sakes she was only human. A female being who.. is well impressed by how well he can work out, so to speak. But she was too stubborn to admit it.

"So looks like you chose to play a little shirts and skins. Showing off isn't very attractive either." Lois walked over towards him casually.. and quickly snatching the ball when he dropped it down to dribble it. She then dashed away while dribbling and tossed the ball to the nearest basket. Luckily making it in. She caught it and started to dribble casually facing back towards him..

"Oh my-- just what I suspected would happen. And don't go easy on me just because I'm a girl, Smallville.. It's almost insulting." Lois flashed him an arrogant smirk.. She knew the guy had a basketball net on his farm. She knew he was an athlete. She also loved being able to catch that ball from him too. Lois on the other hand. Being an army-kid certainly made her more stronger, independant, and ability to what the boys can do on a very similar level. She wasn't so much as masculine.. but tough.
