Lana's here, Chloe's here. There's so much to say about Lana, I can't even figure it out. I have so many questions for her but knowing would just seem so wrong... it's the difference between knowing the truth and knowing the future. But she's so...

Well, I'm glad to see some things don't change.

Met a girl named Claire. I... told her I had powers, and she told me about hers. She's not the same as me, but she's not like the people who were changed by the meteors, either. When I first came here, I thought maybe no one would look at me as a freak of nature or something if I was honest about it, but then Chloe turned up, and...

Feels good to be honest with someone, for once.

But Lana... I still don't know what to think.

You closed the journal the other day, but you said you knew a lot about me.

What did you mean?

I'm guessing turtles that large aren't normal here?

It's almost better than TV.

[supes]

Almost... you don't really have to worry about someone getting stepped on or hit by a flying tree, on TV.

[luthored.livejournal.com]

You do in Smallville.

[supes]

Well, in Smallville, at least we don't have to worry about giant turtles. Unless that's a part of the not-so-distant future?

[luthored.livejournal.com]

No, we're pretty safe from giant turtles.

[supes]

Good to know.

[awkward pause]

So... did anything else important happen?

[vanished-prince.livejournal.com]

Not at all.

[supes]

Good to know.

How's Shirley doing?

[vanished-prince.livejournal.com]

She's doing well. I think she's settling in just fine.

Thanks again for all of your help.

[supes]

That's good to hear.

Oh, no, not at all. It just seemed like the right thing to do.

[vanished-prince.livejournal.com]

Not that many people would go to such lengths for a stranger.

Let me know if I can ever return the favor. My talents lie more in the mental arena than the physical, which I'm sure comes as no surprise.

[emit.livejournal.com]

Never ask him for any manual labor.

[supes]

I didn't do that much. Claire's the one you should be thanking for going to those lengths; she's the one who saved her.

I'll keep that in mind. Thanks.

Well...

[supes]

Well...?

[overninelives.livejournal.com]

First time there's been a turtle that big, I think.

[supes]

First time for a turtle? What else has been supersized?

[overninelives.livejournal.com]

There was a dragon once.

[supes]

Wow. The surprises don't stop coming.

I mean exactly what I said. I know who you are, who your biological and adoptive parents are, where you were born, what you can do. Even the the town you grew up in.

Superboy-Prime

[supes]

And how do you know that?

Clark

[true-superboy.livejournal.com]

Because you are just another version of me from a different universe.

Superboy-Prime

...
...

What?

[tempted to suggest that it's just a coincidence, but given what he is, he thinks that's ridiculous]

Alright. [trying to think of something that might not be so obvious] So... what's the name of the girl who lived next door when I was a kid?

Clark

[true-superboy.livejournal.com]

[:< How dare you not believe him, Clarkie]

Lana Lang.

Are you really going to test me?

Superboy-Prime

[supes]

If you're just another version of me, don't you want to double check that it's more than just coincidence?

What makes our universes different, then? How do you know you aren't just a future version of me?
