--Who in your current WiP is most sarcastic?

It's funny, I think most people would assume Kevin, but actually Sami is the one with the really cutting sarcastic attitude! He just employs it against bad people so it manages to be endearing.

In the superhero world, Bruce tends to win out, though part of what I love about the animated series Clark is that he's but a quiet snarkiness to him as well.

Bruce always in DCU fic, though Ollie's a close second. ☺️

In my original novel, I'd say the narrator is most capable of sarcastic zingers since he's narrating as an adult and looking back.

Thus why sparks always fly when Bruce and Ollie share a page!

And oooh, narrators looking back on their lives is such a good source of irony and sarcasm.

I'd say either Lois or Ollie, but even in Smallville, Clark had moments where he was able to be sarcastic and witty. He was able to match wits with Lois almost right away. In my WIP, it'd be Clark but Lois is the one with the subtle snark there. :D

Love me a snarky character! I love when Clark is able to get those digs in there too, he's far from hapless!
