Right!

[hils]

Screw this fic! It cannot be salvaged. The more I look at it the more frustrated and depressed I get because it is just not good. I've been fiddling with this chapter for 2 weeks now and I'm no closer to being happy with it than I was when I started

I think now is the time to give it up as a bad job and write something else

For the record I will not be writing any more Smallville futurefics. EVER!
