Yes. Great idea. Send me to the place with Lois Lane and Superman. Its not like it hasn't been incredibly awkward the last couple of times you did that. Hey, even better idea, let's try to set things up so they think I'm that Superboy Prime nutjob.

In case you couldn't tell, that paragraph was entirely sarcasm. Look, I get that you think it would be good for me, but those two probably have better things to be doing than dealing with some kid who happens to be named Clark Kent. Even if he does have Superman's powers.

Hi there.

[moltenman]

Your mun is giving you some trouble?

Re: Hi there.

[noboothneeded]

If willingly shoving me into uncomfortable situations counts as trouble, then yes.

Jor-El is there. I can barely deal with the idea of Lois and Clark, and it turns out Superman's father is there too.

[demon_brat]

Huh.

[noboothneeded]

You're not exactly the most talkative person around, are you?

[demon_brat]

Only when I think I have something of relevance to say.

[superman_two]

Your name's Clark Kent, son? But you're not actually Superman? In the traditional sense, at least?

[noboothneeded]

Not in the strange visitor from another planet sense. Or the operating out in the open sense. But I'm still using the powers to help people.

[superman_two]

*a quiet chuckle*

What strange wonders this multiverse holds. But glad to hear it all the same, Clark.

[backinakidflash]

Are you Superboy Prime? Cause I'm gonna have some issues with this.

[noboothneeded]

I'm not Superboy Prime. The only reason I even know about him is because I was friends with Kon at another game.

[backinakidflash]

O-K. This is new. I'm gonna eliminate Bizarro Superboy while we're at it...

[Welp. This is a new one.]

Any friend of Kon's, I guess. I'm Bart Allen.

[noboothneeded]

It was the fact that I can speak in grammatically correct sentences that gave me away, right?

Nice to meet you Bart.

[backinakidflash]

Grammar's overrated. But with a face like that. What can I say, man? It helps.

Nice to meet you too. The mun says I can't make promises about trying not to punch you a dozen times before you say hello. If it makes you feel better, I'll feel worse about it than you will.

So. How are you you and not you? Clone? Half clone? Alternate time stream?

[noboothneeded]

Feel worse in the emotional sense or feel worse in the "Ow! I just broke my hand on the invulnerable guy's face" sense?

And alternate universe, apparently.

[backinakidflash]

Both! [Laughing now.] Totally both. My hand'll heal, anyway.

We've got a lot of those. It's really making saying hi fumbly and awkward.

[andaway]

...So you're Clark Kent and Superman yet you're not... me? Now that's a new one.

[noboothneeded]

Trust me, it's probably weirder for me than it is you.

[andaway]

Maybe, I've at least have some experience with alternate worlds. And as long as you don't come in yelling about how everything was better in your Earth I'd say the Prime-confusion could be avoided.

[noboothneeded]

I wasn't planning on it.
