Summary
The next message is an image, obviously snapped from a phone camera. It shows the symbols that Clark had been unable to translate on his own alongside modern Western musical notation. The page is scribbled over with endless comments, but he can still read the important parts easily.
I cannot believe you had such an egregious gap in your database, says Lex.
Clark smiles at his phone. I think the database was compiled in quite a hurry. Can I send you more?

Summary
“At least it was just a kiss,” repeats Lois.
Just a kiss. Clark can still envision the photograph clearly: one of his arms wrapped around Lex’s shoulder, the other around his waist, pulling him close. Lex’s hand pressed against his cheek, fingers splayed, obscuring his face just enough that he might have been anonymous if only he hadn’t been wearing the most recognizable costume on earth.

Summary
Today, Clark—or rather, Superman—enters the hospital room with a bright smile and a large canvas bag slung over his shoulder. “Guess what I’ve got?”
“Alcohol?” asks Lex hopefully.
“What? No!” Clark laughs. “Letters!” He reaches into the bag and withdraws a handful of envelopes.
Lex rolls his eyes. He’s bored, but not that bored. “You can’t really think I’m interested in going through your fanmail?”
Clark looks genuinely puzzled. “What?”
“Oh, don’t make that face at me. You can reply to your sycophants on your own time.” Lex waves a dismissive hand. “Why don’t you bring me a chess board?”
“Lex,” says Clark very softly, “these letters are all for you.”
