For @owl---feathers, 🧛♀️🍷⚰️ and “Clark wakes up alive”.
Clark slants his eyes towards Dubbilex, who’s already looking at them with a blank expression, or at least an expression Clark doesn’t know how to read. Maybe Conner would, if it came to it.
Clark really doesn’t know enough about his brother’s brothers, and can’t really excuse it. He should know if Conner would be able to read Dubbilex’s expression. He should know if the G-gnome Conner’s holding is someone he should recognize.
He should have remembered Match, if nothing else.
“Why shouldn’t we wake him?” he asks Dubbilex, mostly because pretending not to know the answer seems . . . simpler. At least for now. At least until he knows how or why all this even happened.
He should’ve stopped to figure that out before coming for Conner, but–
He couldn’t.
