"You would have been the best..just as my father and mother from my home planet. And now.. I shall carry you all with me...I promise."
"...Mother, father, Martha and Jonathan Kent....Sol .... Merry Christmas."
"I never got to be your son..." There's a pause, a break in his voice, where a hand caressed the fabric of his clothing, the last remnants of Kryptonian sunstone.
"But I have seen a life where I had been, and so I have no doubt.." ++
He stood alone, amonst the open grasses — gently powdered with snow in the cool morning of Christmas.
"I'm sorry I wasn't there to say goodbye.. for either of you. The kindness you shared with me, the home I almost got to have. The home that never was and never will be..." ++
// I'm still keeping his name Kal but issue #14 fucked me up 🙂↕️
"Son of nowhere and nothing—"
....Maybe it's best I don't see my Batman..
I failed....
SOMEONE TELL KON TO GO EASY? Or just avoid Kal for the time being? That poor young man is TRYING. Give him a chance.
TIM you can't do that to a heartbroken boy. Jon... Jon, put that picture back in the pocket, okay? Can Damian sub in?
This is just like when I let down Krypton..
<— He's kinda sad he did bad
I've let you down.. I'm sorry.
I never even imagined myself having kids, you can't blame me. I wouldn't bring a child to this world.
I've never even had... a partner.
It doesn't matter. Lon, Bon, and Pon... I'm unused to this world, I'm not an idiot that I'd pick those names.
This family tree is confusing..
I don't know any of these people except the one who claims to be my son...
He's eating some of Ma's pie.
Maybe he should have started eating food sooner. . .
I guess I can join in.
"...."
He's looking away!
"I don't play games."
I don't know these people, Ma..
He's just been...watching everyone..
I will help find this fat boy of yours, given you are someone who means a lot to Clark..
Who's...fatson todd?
He feels...very out of place with all these people he doesn't know.
. . . . 💧
☃️❔
Hm..
This is confusing, but I've handled worse.
I don't need to eat the way humans do.
My energy is replenished through Sol, the AI in my suit designed by my mother.
Consuming food isn't necessary.
It's nice being surrounded by nice people. Caring people. It's not much like that back where I'm from.
And those that do care, they don't last.
I don't eat food.
