WHO: Lois and Clark
WHAT: Usual everyday things
WHEN: September 4, 7:59am
WHERE: The Daily Planet
It always started out well-intentioned. Lois always wanted to get to work early and be sitting calmly at her desk at 8am. But realistically that would never happen. She was a reporter, not some office drone, clocking in at 8, out at 5 on the dot. And, more to the point, she had a knack of running into trouble.
This morning it had been a missed metro train and some spilled coffee and even now, walking out of the elevator into the Daily Planet office, she was still sponging the stain on her shirt. Eyes were lowered as she moved through the newsroom, not bothering to look up as people dodged her. Why should she?
