Clark Fairchild

I think it’s fitting that Clark’s alter ego is a web-spinning hero, because Clark does so much to hold the group together that it puts me in mind of that scene where Tobey Maguire stops the train from crashing. You know the one.

You know how sometimes you have that one friend that’s totally ‘ride or die’? Clark is that, but for the whole group. Clark’s got everybody’s backs, and I think that when the other members of the group aren’t stuck in their own heads, they know that he does. I think that’s the source of a lot of the strength that the group has when it’s running smoothly, and I hope he understands that at some point.

I keep thinking I should include a car chase scene at some point, to give Clark a moment where everyone’s fate is in his hands. If an opportunity arises I definitely will.

One thing I’m grateful for about Clark is his crush on Ashley Marco. It gives me a chance to throw in some cute high-school-romance scenes that lighten the mood… and to emphasize how strange and horrid the world that our heroes are in is, to a more ‘normal’ teen.
