He was about to kill you, Lex. Or divulge something you didn't want me to know.
— SMALLVILLE, "Forever" (4.21)
+ bonus from "Arctic" (7.20):
#smallville
#smallvilleedit
#svedit
#lex luthor
#jason teague
#lionel luthor
#clark isn't in these scenes but they're still very much
#clex
#sv 4x21
#sv 7x20

#my gifs
#'why can't you see what's right in front of your face lex?' god. god. godddd.
#I think there's a really interesting discussion to be had (with many potential viewpoints)
#re: to what extent lex actually knew the truth either consciously or subconsciously at any particular time
#and how much he was just in denial about it (and why)
#I'm not really prepared to have that discussion in these tags but like
#let's face it - lex figured out that clark had powers all the way back in 1x12
#just because clark convinced him he was wrong at the time doesn't mean he just forgot that whole thing
#and yet it seemed like the more seasons went on and the more obvious the truth became
#especially the fact that clark was so heavily tied to all the alien weirdness of smallville
#the more lex seemed to (subconsciously?) push back against accepting or recognizing that truth
#I mean that's literally what he's doing in the 4x21 scene with jason
#so it's like he both desperately wanted to know clark's secret but also didn't want to know at all
#and that's just SO interesting
#I mean jesus the 7x20 scene is supposed to be peak evil lex and yet he STILL has to be pushed into accepting the truth
#and he does so with his eyes glistening because yeah he wanted to know clark's secret once upon a time but he never wanted THIS
#(remember when lex told jonathan in s1 that he just wanted clark to have a happy normal life bc clark was such a good person?
#and then he's told in 7x20 that to save the world he has to KILL clark and take that life away from him hahaha [crying] it's fine I'm FINE)
#wow I really said 'I'm not prepared to have this discussion' and then just. proceeded to have it anyway huh. lmao oops
