1 | [[http://www.lcfanfic.com/stories/2011/html/veritas.html Veritas]] by Shayne Terry is a Franchise/{{Superman}} fanfic. It's mainly based on ''Series/LoisAndClark: The New Adventures of Superman'', although it's a bit bigger than that. The central character is a Clark Kent of an AlternateUniverse who rescues a plane in Metropolis, 1993, during a storm. Somehow, he and the plane end up being transported into [[RealLife our universe]], specifically Washington D.C. in 2008. Needless to say, a mysterious plane appearing in the capital during UsefulNotes/TheWarOnTerror is not going to go unnoticed. Now, the governments of the world have to make sense of a situation that seems to blur the line between fact and fiction; and a Clark Kent who has not yet become Superman has to deal with a hostile, paranoid world that may know more about him than he does about himself. |

5 | !!This FanFic provides examples of: |
6 | |
7 | * AlternateUniverse / TheMultiverse - This Clark is somewhat different from the brainchild of Shuster and Siegel, and even from the character in ''Series/LoisAndClark''. |
8 | * Sugarwiki/AwesomeMusic: In universe. At one point Clark Kent watches ''Film/SupermanTheMovie''. The music calls to him. |
9 | * GeneralRipper: One of the military men in charge of the quarantined passengers of the mystery plane is uncomfortably reminiscent of Jason Trask from the first season of ''Series/LoisAndClark''. |
10 | * HopeBringer: One one side we have a cynical, paranoid, post-9/11 world. On the other, Superman. |
11 | * MeaningfulName: Once upon a time, two Franchise/{{Superman}} fans decided to name their kid Lois Lane. Yes, she is a (television) reporter. No, she is ''not'' happy about her name. |
12 | * NamedAfterSomebodyFamous / WhoNamesTheirKidDude - Once upon a time, two Franchise/{{Superman}} fans decided to name their kid Lois Lane. Yes, she is a (television) reporter. No, she is ''not'' happy about her name. |
13 | * RippedFromTheHeadlines - Disasters that Clark encounters or learns about during the fic were real tragedies that occurred either not too long ago (9/11, the flooding of New Orleans during Katrina) or while the fic was being written and posted (the earthquake in China). |
14 | * TechnologyLevels - Played with. Clark's universe is set in 1993, which means he is unfamiliar with 2008 concepts such as cellphone cameras and Website/{{Youtube}}. On the other hand, his universe has its share of MadScientist types and AppliedPhlebotinum, resulting in things ''our'' people are surprised by, such as laptops that are [[MagicalComputer much more advanced]] than a 1993 computer has a right to be. |
15 | * WelcomeToTheRealWorld: PlayedForDrama. |
