[locked to Clark(s), Chloe(s), Martha, Sam and Lois]

I made an unexpected visit to Metropolis General today. Don't worry, it was nothing serious, I'm fine. Just a bad day at ISIS. I can't wait to see how the press handles this. And I feel stupid, because I really should have my own doctor on call just in case, so I don't have to swat away reporters right and left. (No offense to you reporters, by the way.)

Sometimes, I don't think I know what I'm doing. Who am I kidding? I'm not even qualified for this job. Normally, I would need a degree for this, which I am working on, but still. I have this job because I've lived in Smallville for so long, not to mention I've called in a few favors. I want to help these people, but sometimes I wonder if I'm even making a difference.

I need a drink.

I'm glad you're okay. And you should never feel stupid. It would be a tough job for anyone, and you're doing admirably.

Thank you. I appreciate that.

I'm relieved to hear you're okay, yes you are doing a good job, and if you really want a drink, I can be over to chaperon.

Or just deliver a hug.

You really think coming over is a good idea?

To make sure you're alright and I don't have to track down every single person you encountered at the hospital to find out what happened? Yes.

I'm fine. And you know I can't give out the details, not even to you.

I wouldn't have asked about those details, just everything pertaining to you personally.

I'm sorry. I still worry about you and that probably won't ever change.

I'm just a little scraped up. That's all.

I know you will, but this is what I do now. As long as I work with the meteor infected, there's a possibility I'm going to get hurt.

Alright. I respect that, and won't interfere, unless you ask me to.

... what happened? What's ISIS? *is very confused here*

The ISIS Foundation is an a center of support I created for the people who became metahumans due to their exposure to the meteors that hit Smallville. Did I forget to mention that?

Just a bit, yeah... metahuman?

The people who were mutated by the meteors that hit Smallville and now have superhuman abilities, also called meteor-infected, or meteor freaks. Needless to say I don't use that last term.

Remember how I said that I've seen and heard about a lot of things that wouldn't surprise me?

... yeah, you found something.

Should I be proud?

Wait, what? What happened? Are you sure you're okay?

Just an issue between a couple of my clients. I can't really say more than that. I'm fine, I promise.

...if you say so.

Do you need anything?

No. I'll be fine, Clark, I promise.

All right. I'll just worry from a distance, then.
