Title: The Suitcase
Author: htbthomas
Category: Superman Returns
Prompt: #042: Wrinkled
Rating: PG
Word Count: 2256 words
Summary: When Jimmy stumbles across Clark’s battered suitcase in the storage closet, he begins to wonder just what is going on…
Spoilers: For Superman Returns
Author's Notes: At the end of writing Déjà Vu, I posed the question: “In whose POV would you have liked to see portions of this story?” Jimmy Olsen was a clear winner. ♥ This is not a direct sequel to Déjà Vu… however, there are some similarities between the events presented here and my post-DV universe. (Oh, and I know there has been some sort of Jimmy ficstravaganza lately, but I promise I had this idea months ago… *grin*)

Thanks to mark_clark for the beta and van_el and jenn_1 for advice along the way.

Title: To the Heart of Egypt
Author: htbthomas
Category: Movieverse, post Déjà Vu (although it’s not necessary to have read that first)
Destination: Cairo, Egypt
Rating: PG
Word Count: 4200 words
Summary: A disturbing discovery leads Lois and Clark to seek answers in Cairo.
Spoilers: For Superman Returns mainly and Déjà Vu only slightly
Author’s Note: Most of my friends list knows that I spent three years in Japan, but you may not know that I spent the two years before that in Cairo. Most of these scenes come directly from my husband’s and my experiences there. Enjoy!

Thank you to betty brant and mark_clark for betaing, my husband for the idea which sparked this fic, and ancarett for the perfect last-minute banner.

Title: Dinner Plans
Author: htbthomas 
Category: Superman Returns
Prompt: #020 Couples – “kitchen” and #023 General – “eggs”
Rating: R (for sexual content – nothing graphic)
Word Count: 2300 words
Summary: A fluffy one-shot set in the future of the Déjà-verse. Clark plans an intimate dinner at home on Valentine’s Day. Written for 12days_of_clois Valentine's Day Challenge.
Spoilers: For Superman Returns.

A/N: This is absolute fluff, completely different in character than the saga that is Déjà Vu. Knowledge of the other story is not required. It seems that the food sequences in that story were quite popular, so what better subject for a one-shot? Enjoy!

Thanks to mark_clark , jenna_knight and betty brant for the beta – and to ancarett for a last minute go-over and the spiffy banner!

Title: Christmas Times Five
Rating: PG
Word Count: 5398 words
Summary: Clark tries to make up to his new family the five Christmases he missed while he was away.
Spoilers: For Superman Returns, of course.

A/N: This story, like many others that have appeared in the last few days, was written for the LiveJournal community, 12days_of_clois. (Thanks to bistyboo1974 for having the brilliant idea!)  It is set in the future of the same universe as Déjà Vu, but some details are left intentionally vague to avoid spoilers.  However, it’s not necessary to have read Déjà Vu to understand this one.  I hope you enjoy my bit of Christmas fluff!

Thanks to mark_clark and jenna_knight for the beta!
