Smallville reminiscence

[katikat]

I've been listening to fanfic_read_by's wonderful reproduction of seperis' Smallville story "Somewhere I Have Never Traveled" and it made me remember how much I used to love SV and its fanfiction. You know, back then, in season 1-3... Such a long time ago...

And that's why I decided to rec you some of my all time favorite stories in said fandom! All of them are CLex:

rageprufrock's "Coflict of Interests" and its sequel "Visiting Hours" - both stories are told from the POV of Clark and Lex's son. And nope, it's not mpreg. The story is very long and pretty amazing. Conner is a sneaky little tyke who is searching for his mom and what a surprise it is for him when he finds out that actually, he has two dads. And one of them is the weirdo Clark Kent :D

sabershadowkat's "A Date With The President" and another story by the same author, "Family, Friendship and Love" (warning: mpreg). Both stories (they are not related) fall in the "feel!good" category. They will make you smile and feel all warm and fuzzy and simply good.

And in a somewhat darker tone "Ransom" by LaCasta. In this story, Clark gets kidnapped and after three years, Lex receives a ransom note. Dark but with a happy ending.

Yes, these are my all time favorite stories in the Smallville fandom. There were others that I liked but these I remember clearly even years after I read them so that should mean something, right?

I stopped watching around the time Jensen Ackles appeared in the series because no matter how much I love him, the show jumped the shark when they introduced magic there. Yeah.

I adored SV in the first seasons and thank you for the rec's.
Jensen was very good but the witch hunting was silly.

Me too. I adored the series. I didn't miss one episode. But when Lex fell in love with Lana and Lana turned into a witch... yeah. One Tree Hill with monsters. Yuck.

Lana the slut!! lol
She slept with everyone in Smallville except Jonathan and...Lionel.

Might happen yet. At least with Lionel. They still have one season left :D

LOL!
I also believe that this will be the ending season no matter what the writers say for more.

I agree. No matter how much they try, Tom Welling doesn't look the proper age anymore. And it's been six years. And if they cancel SV, they can't cancel SPN because then, all they would have left would be comedies and reality shows. And One Tree Hill which is - obviously - immortal, no matter the ratings.

That's why i believe we'll have S4!!

*does a little happy dance* Thank you.

I edited Date with a Prez recently on my site. Got rid of bad grammar and made tiny modifications that bugged me. Nothing big changed, though. The story is queue'd to be read by fanfic_read_by. I'm all excited about it.
