I might post this question at TWOP, but I figured that since I am a paid member, I might as well create a poll, too. ;)

It struck me as I was driving to [livejournal.com profile] hederahelix's house to watch Smallville a couple weeks ago, that the focuse of Corner of the World has changed since I first started. The title of the series came from Clark's desire to have a place in Smallville that would remind him of Lex once Lex left. He didn't expect the relationship to be forever. He was trying to accept the reality of their lives and take what he could get and then, when Lex moved away, Clark would be able to go to a place that was their's--their corner of the world--and be able to relive the memories. That's why I created the treehouse: they were going to make love their the first time, and that was going to be the place.

But the muse took over, and instead, I wound up with a 34 part series.

They have their corner of the world. They know that, no matter what happens, they are bound to each other forever. It wasn't a fling, it's not going to disappear even if they break up. It's real.

And now the focus has shifted. Instead of looking for a place for them as a couple, Clark and Lex are now trying to figure out who they are and how they as a couple fit into the world. So I figured I needed a new title that reflects this.

Unfortunatly, I cant' think of any. I'm never very good at titles anyway; the best ones are suggested by beta's or other outside sources. And while Corner of the World fit so very perfectly, I can't seem to come up with anything that feels the same.

Hence, the poll. I need help and advice. I've posted what [livejournal.com profile] fabrisse and I have come up with. You can either choose one of those, tell me to keep it the same, or suggest your own. I'd appreciate any help anyone can give. Thanks!!

[Poll #110838]

Am I allowed to say how I voted in my comment?

Well, let's just say that they'll always have Kiptin and leave it at that. ;-)

Now that I've voted, every time I look at your original post, I can see the ongoing results. Maybe you need to vote in your own poll? :shrugging:

I figured out how to view them if i click a bunch of links; maybe I do need to vote to see them as they go along. Thanks for the tip

I don't care what you call it, as long as it I get more soon and it gets happy.

Your last one made me cry.

So, I can't vote, because I don't have a LJ, but I say stick with Corner of the World. It's a good name, and a good series.

Although, I have to say you broke my heart with the last one. Surely the boys are getting back together, right? Pretty please?

They will get back together, but not right away. And I'm going to keep the title Corner of the World. Thanks for the vote!
