[ and, a moment later: ]

Do you want me to come along?

[supersweet]

[ Jon doesn't get why this is a question. ]

Of course. You helped and you're better at names than me and dad.

Dad named his dog Krypto.

[ because parenting doesn't come natural to lois, that's why. ]

All right. Let me know when you want to go and we will.

What about work? Since you're a famous reporter and stuff, won't they be mad?

[contacts]

Since I'm a famous reporter and stuff, I get to divide my time how I want.

[ she isn't famous here, but it wouldn't be the first time that she's written all through the night and not shown up at work until late or something like that. perry used to know these things, he's always trusted her to deliver and she always did.

her new boss isn't very hands-on, at least. ] But if we went after six some day, I wouldn't mind.

I'd like that, mom. I'll send a message to ask if the Professor is okay with that too.

[contacts]

Sounds like a plan.

[supersweet]

Thanks again. For doing this. It was really nice of you.

[contacts]

I'm glad you asked me if it was okay.

[supersweet]

Well, yeah. You know best. No one knows as much as you do.

[contacts]

I'm not sure that's actually true, but I'll take it.

[supersweet]

It's 90% true! Maybe even 95%

[contacts]

Let's go with 90%.

[supersweet]

93%!

[contacts]

You can't haggle with the truth, young man.

[supersweet]

I've played poker with you, mom. There's always room to haggle.

[contacts]

Who won?

[supersweet]

You did. You always win.

[contacts]

Glad to hear that some things don't change.

[supersweet]

We should have a game sometime!

[contacts]

We could definitely do that.

[supersweet]

Maybe after dinner someday.

[contacts]

Maybe Friday?

[supersweet]

Okay! Friday it is.

[contacts]

I'm looking forward to seeing what you've got.
