[For someone who just showed up in a completely different universe, this young voice sounds excited. If someone were to see him, it would look like he’s talking to thin air, not realizing he’s being recorded. Surely Superman’s super hearing can hear him, no matter where he is. Mommy Lois did it before!]

Daddy Clark! Daddy Clark, I’m back, I got out! I don’t know how, but I’m not in the Phantom Zone anymore! I think it’s just me who got back... I don’t see any other rockets or people from there and I made sure to stay away from everybody else.

Uhm... [The slightest bit of worry and hesitation creeps into his tone.] I’m... not sure where I am. I don’t think this is Metropolis... There’s a really big castle and a little town nearby. Mommy Lois said if I ever got lost that I was supposed to stay in one place until you found me so I’m gonna wait here. And don’t worry, I haven’t used any of my powers! I’m keeping them secret ‘cause there are people walking around who can see me if I do.

Oh, I found this really cool book too! It writes down whatever you say! Maybe Mommy Lois can use it for writing her papers or taking notes when she interviews people.

[There are a few moments of silence as he waits for an answer. Then...] Daddy Clark...? You can hear me, right...? [The tone is growing increasingly worried.]

[ Sadly the filter with his 'real' dad is unfiltered. But hey, Crowley always DOES love an opportunity to mess with Clark]

You don't until they're suddenly there, all 'daddy can you teach me how to fly?', 'daddy can you fire your eye beams at my teacher?' and so on.

...

So. On a scale of one to ten, how worried should we be that this kid has shown up and is calling your less-fun twin 'daddy'?

How hard can it be? My adoptive mother raised me just fine, as a human.

And it's zero. I'm dealing with that right now.

That's humans for you, pretty resourceful when they need to be.

Good, last I checked, a child with super-powered genetics getting upset was a bad thing.

Uh huh.

He's a good kid. Give him a chance, he'll be fine.

Fine, but let it be said I told you so if this goes tits up.

I'll keep that in mind.
