               “I SEE WHERE you’re coming from, but formed and learned — or even shaped — aren’t synonyms. Not really. They change the entire nonverbal implications of what you’re saying. Learned implying activity while formed implying passivity, for example.” 

He was splitting hairs, and it was only with Lex that he did this. They pushed the right — wrong — buttons. 

“Or maybe it doesn’t,” he suggested. “And I just consider manners, habits — aspects of our personality — to be active, and you might consider them passive.” He tried shrugging casually, but it was a degree too tense. 

“Either way: I think Kon is an active learner in regard to…. well, much of his personality.” He pursed his lips, his mouth becoming a thin line from cheek to cheek before he let out a puff of air, and shook his head. 

“Maybe we’re both right,” he admitted. 

      “ Every persons personality is formed through both active and passive instances.  You learn from your mistakes or you are formed from things far beyond your control. “

      A middle ground was acceptable, but approaching it first wasn’t quite something he was ready to do.  Fortunately he didn’t have to, he can see that little resignation in the reporters face before he admits to their arguments similarity.  His smile had been fading, but it quickly slips back onto his face when Clark gives.

      “ Kon makes plenty of mistakes and has the uh -- has the strength to handle most things, so maybe he’s a more active learner.  But he’s certainly been formed by the environment around him as well.  So -- So middle.  You’re right, I’m right.  As usual. “

               “MANNERS ARE LEARNED; habits are formed,” he replied. “Writing one-oh-one.” It had been more than a grammatical knee-jerk, however, when Lex had called Kon’s manners formed… it had felt clinical. In a lab. Things that Clark abhorred thinking about when it came to chaotic, organic, vibrant Kon. 

“When you look at Kon, does he look like the word formed should be anywhere near him?” 

      “ But we’re uh -- Clark, we’re not writing right now.  Writing one-on-one doesn’t apply to organic speech and attempting to associate writing rules to spoken language isn’t how it works.  No, no no no.  Learned and formed can be interchangeable with audible speech.  Factors alter the way things are formed, manners, personality, bias, habits, weaknesses, strengths. “

       A pause, he lifts one hand to tap almost nervously at the side of his head with his pointer finger, but the motion only lasts for a second before said hand perches itself on his hip again now that he’s managed to at least slightly change the angle of his train of thought.

      “ Formed can be near any living being.  And several non-living ones as well. “

      “ I’m sorry is formed not an appropriate word for the way manners are acquired? “

See, what we call God depends upon our tribe, Clark Joe, ‘cause God is tribal; God takes sides! No man in the sky intervened when I was a boy to deliver me from daddy’s fist and abominations. I figured out way back if God is all-powerful, He cannot be all good. And if He is all good, then He cannot be all-powerful. And neither can you be.

     there was a slight look of annoyance that crossed on victor’s face. ’ not getting turned into an icecube. ’ is the default, deadpanned answer that victor responds with.  victor shifts his stance, and looks to the other. ’ what do you want ? ’ victor didn’t have a problem exchanging one thing for another, but he did have a problem with someone screwing him over. he really hoped luthor wouldn’t fall into that category. he would much rather ask nicely for what he needed than endanger innocent people and police.  

      “ I want something interesting. “

      He doesn’t want anything in particular at the moment.  Money and Power         were things he already had, access wasn’t a problem in any city, so he         supposes something interesting, something entertaining might be as         good a trade as anything, seeing as Victor was a very interesting man.
