Yeah, I think canonically it is too soon, given how long it took Clark and Lana to hook up. And this show has a schizophrenic attitude toward sex, so it wouldn't surprise me that we're not supposed to think they're sleeping together, especially given how we're also supposed to believe that Jason *followed her from Paris*, gave up his old life, and relocated to Smallville and they never actually had sex.

(Hah. I'm choosing to believe that maybe she and Jason never had intercourse, but did everything but, because otherwise that whole relationship seems completely unbelievable to me).

I think someone should write a story about the hookers Lex on his payroll, btw!

You know what, though? The way everyone on the show bends over backwards to accomodate Lana, rings their hands worrying about her, etc. (especially when they all apparently couldn't care less most of the time what happens to each other), I actually have no trouble believing that if she told either Whitney or Jason that she wanted to wait, they'd go along with that. I mean, canonically, people regularly *go out of their way* when it comes to Lana (I still can't believe Chloe running over to the mansion *in the middle of a meteor shower* just because Lana sounded a "little odd" on the phone; she knew Lana was at the mansion and really, no matter how much Chloe disliked Lex at that point, she can't *honestly* have thought Lana was *in danger* from him; yet there Chloe was, literally risking her very life because "oh, noes, Lana didn't sound 100% happy when I talked to her!").

If it were any other character, I wouldn't believe someone would move across two continents and give up their lives for that person even though they weren't having sex, but people do get just that slavishly stupid on SV when it comes to Lana. I'm not even being snarky. People move heaven and earth for her, and react to her in ways that they just don't do for everyone else.

Yeah, I guess her mutant power is the ability to get people to desire her?

Actually, I can think of a couple of reasons why Jason and Lana may not have had sex. Given the really incesty vibe between Genevieve and Jason, it's possible his momma screwed him up so bad that he has serious sexual hangups, and so he was drawn to Lana precisely because she was so virginal and wouldn't put any pressure on him in that direction. Or if we are to interpret the end of that plot arc as Jason being in on it with his mother the whole time, maybe he was under orders not to get too emotionally involved with Lana, so he didn't sleep with her.

But Lana's mutant power being bending people to her will is definitely another explanation!
