This is probably a silly thought but I often think about how pure Clark's soul was that he turned Lionel into such a good person (I know he had Jor-El influence but it was still his essence) . Same with Lois, Godfrey (affected by Darkseid) couldn't even corrupt her. He called her, "pure of heart".

So both of these Pure Hearts are the match made in heaven.

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 #dcmultiverse #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

lionel’s redemption arc was stupid as hell but sometimes i just think of how much more tragic it makes lex’s story. that he spent years being told he was too soft, too weak, but also goodness isn’t in your nature, lex, you’re a luthor and you’ll always be a luthor and they’ll never accept you, until he finally gives in and decides to embrace it, decides that fine, if no one will let him be the hero then he might as well be the villain… and then after all that, when he finally becomes the perfect luthor, suddenly all lionel can say is clark kent is the kind of son a father could be proud of.

#the thing about the middle seasons of smallville is that they’re interesting to talk about but they’re fucking miserable to watch #anyway would have pushed lionel’s ass out a window too if i were his kid #lex luthor #lionel luthor #smallville

Genuinely hate how something or someone always stops Clark whenever he confronts Lionel about being a manipulative abuser and murderer. "He's on our side." Boy, he is only on your side because it benefits him.

He threatened Lana into marrying Lex, but it's suddenly okay because he says that he was trying to protect Clark? Clark, you're literally at your smartest when you use your critical thinking.

Why would you continue to trust Lionel and look so freaking stupid? This is not how you write a redemption arc and I don't understand how the writers didn't get the memo.

The entire point of the show portraying Lex's origin is that you see him turn from misguided with a good heart to straight up evil because it's a continuous cycle. Lachlan abused Lionel (creating a monster), which turned into Lionel abusing Lex (also creating a monster), which turned into Lex abusing those around him.

Lex does fucked up things because his number one role model also did fucked up things. I'm not a professional television writer, but even I can tell that Lex's turn to villainy won't be a cohesive plot if you give Lionel a redemption arc.

#I would rant for hours on how shitty writing this is but I don't have the time for that #I mean John Glover is doing his best and he is a fantastic actor but it still can't how bad this plot is #clark kent #lex luthor #lionel luthor #lana lang #smallville #my post
