   Summary

   Lex, always the curious man, bites his lower lip at the proposal. In a way, being alone with Clark feels less insane than being with his parents, it just doesn't feel quite right still.

   -

   Or, the one where Lex gives Superman a son, gets surprised by the goodness he was raised by and realizes he's been a huge asshole, and that he's in love.
