Clark sighed, looking down at the papers once more as if they would get up and walk away if he didn't watch them. He thought it might still be a risk if he were to leave. But then again.. Bart had new abilities to show off. He supposed he could use his powers a little. It would save money for cab fare that he'd been spending. "Well.. I guess I could go out."
He listened as Bart apologized, as he admitted guilt. It had surprised him. The boy.. err, man.. didn't seem as cocky to him now. Perhaps he had matured after all. "Well, I should have been more careful." War had infected him, which explained why he lashed out. Not enough for him to kill someone, but he felt damn close. "And I shouldn't have been swearing so much. Or quick to anger. Bizarro used it to bring me out."
Clark paused a moment, before slowly getting up to his feet. Maybe we should go out. I could use the fresh air. But.. what about Lana? I thought that she had a point too. And I kept my promise to her, I stayed away from her and away from Isis. Though I was very close to asking her for that kryptonite that she said she had. Maybe I should turn my computer and phone back on. Did I miss much?"
