Where: Daily Planet, Lois' desk
What: Presents
Rating: Low
A crowd around Lois' desk wasn't anything new to Clark, but he assumed as he approached, that at the center would be his wife. Probably leaned back in her chair, feet up on her desk, talking about how she got the lead that no one else could. Other reporters found it annoying and bragging; Clark found it kind of adorable.
But to his surprise, it wasn't his beautiful, confident wife that most of the Planet staffed was gathered around. Instead at her desk was a large gift basket, in a purple, gold and black motif.
"Woof, would you look at this thing?"
"That's gourmet, that right there, they only sell it in Gotham at this one shop. Nothing in there is cheap."
"Oh my god, that is some top shelf liquor ... you think he stole it?"
"Nah, a guy like that has connections, it's not stealing if the owner just gives it to you, probably."
"Hey, Kent! When did your wife get chummy with the Penguin?!"
"Uhh... I didn't know she had?" Clark blinked and then turned as he heard a familiar step approaching. A few seconds later, another reporter spotted Lois rounding a desk, and the group scattered. Clark reached for the note attached to the basket and read it, eyebrows going up. "...Honey? Why is Oswald Cobblepot sending you his "kindest and warmest regards to a journalist of the highest acclaim and taste"?
