This is un-freaking-believable, Rivka. I don't even watch the show regularly (frankly, I find the Spelling-esque dialogue and the heavy coating of Cover Girl base they put on all the actors off-putting), and I'm intrigued. I am in love with your sexy, tortured, brilliant, oh-so-complicated Lex. Too bad he only has eyes for Clark. . .*sigh*
Please say you're going to write lots more of these!
There's only one canonically-confusing issue: Martha seems to be already working for Lionel, yet the sex seems to be directly after "Red" and hence before "Nocturne." You could remove the Martha-working-for-Lionel references, leaving open the implication that Martha took the job in part to protect Lex, to keep an eye on things chez Luthor. Even though I haven't seen "Nocturne" yet, I have this theory that Martha believes in "keep your enemies closer," and took the job because she suspects Lionel of knowing Too Much about Clark.
A-fucking-mazing. I'm sitting here going, "Eeeeeee! Oh my God, eeeee!" every few seconds. The angst, the love, the historical references (Enkidu *snicker*)... The sex is hot. The Lex and Lionel scenes are painful yet amusing. The Lex and Martha scenes are so believable. I adore this story.

So good -- the premise, the voices, the shift from pleasure to pain, the cautious reconciliation. Just what the doctor ordered!
