Summary
The thought occurs to her randomly, while she’s at work. She’s assisting a young woman who had just been in a car accident— a teenager, really— with her pregnancy. Katara has her sitting on an examination table, her round belly exposed, water-covered fingers hovering above her skin. There’s a small mass, a heartbeat and a whorl of chi that she can feel, pressing back against her. Katara describes the entire process, and the girl smiles at her uncertainly throughout, a look of wonderment on her face. “And to think,” she whispers. “In the beginning, I’d been praying to get my period. Now, I feel so relieved.”
The distant part of her that can still feel wants to commiserate. She wants to laugh, pat her shoulder, and say, “A baby can change everything, huh? Isn’t life so ironic?”
And then it hits her, like a bolt of lightning down her spine— I can’t remember the last time I had mine.
Or:
Love is a form of energy that swirls all around us, and is reborn.

Summary
The first time Jake tried to get his Sunday morning coffee and found none other than Rooster at the best table by the window, he could have believed it was happenstance.
The second, sure, it could have been a coincidence.
The third time, though, was when he started to consider that it might be enemy action.

Summary
Someone new moved to Smallville, in the house on the other side of the Kent farm.
Clark meets the new kid, Bruce Wayne, and his first impression isn't great. He thinks that Bruce is spoiled and rude and out of place. Maybe that's why he blows up at him. But he still saves him when he's in trouble, that's just the kind of person that Clark is.
After a while they develop a tentative kind of friendship over the summer. Bruce isn't like anyone else that Clark knows, and he feels connected to him in all of his out of place-ness.
His own feelings for the other take him by surprise, he only hopes that he can stomp them down before he ruins their friendship over them.
