It took Kon a few days to work up the nerve to go over to Anatoly's and Lex's. Clark might have been one of his so-called parents, but he didn't feel like it. Still, he needed all the advice he could get. He'd heard about how Clark showing up again had been for Clark and now he needed to see the other end. Now he needed to hear from someone who was in his shoes, kind of. Not that he thought Lex was in love with Clark or anything. That would just be weird. Right?

Still, it took longer than he really wanted to work up the courage to knock on the door. It wasn't that hard, right? Just ask a question. He didn't even have to bring Tim into this at all. He sucked in a breath and tried to ignore the fluttering in his stomach. Maybe neither of them was home.

For over a month, Scotty's words and the picture of Lex holding a bundle that he'd claimed was his baby brother had haunted him. Maybe this was what changed everything. Maybe this was what made Lex…evil. It was a scary thought and one he'd wrestled with quietly for a long time on his own. Normally, he would have had Cassie or Tim or even Bart to kick him into sense. Now he just had himself, so it took a little longer, but he got there in the end. He got to the determination that he'd just have to talk to Lex. Face his fears.

After he tracked the other man down.

It took him a few questions, but eventually he found the right door to knock on. He just hoped that someone answered.
