Wow, you're so close to the finish line! That's awesome! :D
The main character of my role reversal fic is Lois, since the whole story is in her POV and doesn't shift. Clark is a top secondary character, but he was really sparse in the first chapter and he's not in every scene, like she is. Lois is still working out who she is and her dual identity, so she's motivated to save the world and be top reporter. Clark wants to continue to make his own name and then do what's right. Someone once asked me if Clark would be a Green Lantern in this story and while I didn't have any plans to give him a costumed role, I feel like he definitely has the right traits to get a ring.
The only thing that changed from my first draft was the setting - I initially started with Lois's childhood and was going to write various, significant moments of her life until she reached adulthood/got to the Planet. Then I realized it was dragging and changed it up to start it off when she's being interviewed for a position at the Planet and squeezed some of those scenes as flashbacks instead.
