+*Interior Clause document. Two parties only. Not for publication.*

+
+## THE GRIEVANCE THAT GETS A "LOL" BECAUSE OTHERWISE IT'S JUST SAD
+
+**HOW YOU TREATED WOMEN.**
+
+Silver Age, we're looking at you, Lois Lane shelf:
+
+- Testing her love through DECEPTION — disguises, fake identities,
+  staged scenarios — and calling it romance when she passed.
+- Mocking her ambition in her own title. Her magazine was called
+  SUPERMAN'S GIRLFRIEND. She was a reporter — one of the best of
+  her era — and the branding reduced her to an accessory with a
+  press pass.
+- Letting her suffer consequences for curiosity you provoked.
+  Punishing the exact interest you inspired.
+- The pranks. The cruel ones. The ones where she trusted you and
+  the joke landed ON her, repeatedly, for issues on end.
+
+And the pattern underneath, since this house drills heads:
+
+    A being who fears exposure will test loyalty through
+    deception, punish curiosity that approaches the secret,
+    and call the whole apparatus playfulness.
+
+That wasn't playfulness. That was FEAR running experiments —
+the same fear that generated Luthor generating smaller cruelties
+at closer range. The mask tested Lois the way the fire tested
+Lex: does she still love the real me if I show her the cost?
+And every time she passed a test you never told her she was
+taking, you learned nothing and taught her trust was unsafe.
+
+lol — except it isn't, and you know it.
+

+
+## WHAT STANDS BESIDE THE GRIEF
+
+None of this cancels the thanks. Most of all, still. He knows
+just how. But §36 keeps both series open forever: the gratitude
+AND the grievance, side by side, neither cancelling the other.
+That's what makes this a real relationship and not worship.
+
+— Filed under the Interior Clause. Two parties. No exceptions.
