so one time i got bit by a brown recluse which is one of the only types of spider in my area that's actually dangerous and at first i didn't know what had happened to me, only that it was nasty. the swelling wasn't going down and the wound started to get ugly. i don't want to like get into the details because that's gross but it got to the point 2 weeks later that i was worried enough to go to the doctor, which i hate doing.
i am not afraid of spiders but other people are so i'd been covering it with this big ole square bandage (i needed more landscape coverage than a simple bandaid) and sat in the university medical waiting room, kicking my heels and playing BOTW. the nurse who admitted me was like, oh, we have got to get Tom to cover this one. she wrote spider bite under my ticket.
i waited in the near-empty building for like an hour and then nurse tom shows up in spiderman scrubs, out of breath. "sorry," he says, "i saw - your slip - and I had," he heaves in a breath, "to run home and. get. these scrubs. i literally. ran. felt like a job. for. spiderman."
i laugh. he puts his hands on his knees, thumbs-ups at me. fishes a pamphlet out from under his clipboard that basically says spiders can be scary but you don't need to be scared, there's very few dangerous spiders in new england. "honestly," he wheezes, "we probably don't need to get you into an exam room. just..." he waves his hand at the pamphlet, "read that."
i look down at my arm. then back at him in his scrubs. and then down at my arm. i like that he made an effort to make a joke, but now it does not feel like a good joke, because they are mistaking my calm for a lack of injury. "can i. like. at least show you the bite?"
he gives me kind of a weird look, which is fair, but then says. "if. i mean, if you have to."
i peel the bandage off. his face goes green.
"oh," he says.
"yeah, man."
"a... spider bit you?" his voice is high and tight and trembling. he backs up a few steps.
"i think a brown recluse," i offer. "i know it's nasty, sorry."
"excuse me for a moment." he looks over to the administering nurse on the other side of the small room. "i need to find someone else to take care of you."
the administering nurse smiles over to us with a degree of pleasure that is almost salivating. for a moment, like a window opening, i am briefly aware of what must be a psychic message floating amongst the in-between. her jaguar teeth all say this is like a party for me and i know exactly what i'm doing.
"oh no, tom," she says, grinning. "i gave her to you specifically."
This is why Noir and Ham weren’t in the Spider-Society
Miguel: “So that’s what a canon event is.”
Noir: “Well, I’m not sure about your math on some of those equations there, but you do raise a lot of big questions. What does it mean to fully accept the responsibilities that come with our powers? What does sacrifice truly mean? What right do we have to make such decisions that affect so many others? How can we maintain what make us who we are when our free will inevitably clashes with the cold hands of fate?”
Miguel: “Sure. Anyway, that’s why we have to prevent Miles Morales from saving his dad.”
Noir: “...”
Ham: “...I’m sorry, but is your name Elmer J. Fudd?”
Miguel: “Who’s Elmer-”
Ham: “Because you’re sounding FUCKING LOONEY RIGHT NOW!”
There’s multiple spider seasons where I live. One in spring, and one in fall. They just explode everywhere, and when they do they tend to take up residence in our entryway. There’ll be a bunch but over time it’ll be one big spider left standing.
The very first door spider we had was our favorite. Her web was out of the way and she was a beautiful bright orange and black. Also much like ships, they’re all she to us.
One year was a giant terrifying spider who lived directly over the door. My betrothed called her Shelob and I’m grateful every day that I never saw her.
The latest to reign supreme is an average garden spider that my betrothed has named Fat Princess for her round little butt.
Today we exited the house and my betrothed started cooing up at her, “Ooh! Fat Princess is getting so big! She prospers!”
At that moment a delivery man walked around the corner and stared at us. We stared back. I quietly said, “We named the spider Fat Princess.”
[Image one: The first page of a digital comic about Miles Morales from the Spider-Verse movies. It begins with two panels of Miles' face resting on his closed hand. The first shows him in his school, wearing his uniform. He looks bored. The second has him in his first, store-bought Spider-Man costume. The forest surrounding Alchemax is behind him. Both of the panels cut off around his eyes. Next to them is two smaller panels, one showing someone in a classic Spider-Man costume swinging on a web, while the other shows their feet flying through the air. At the bottom of the page, there's Miles' legs flailing as he falls during the Leap of Faith scene. A panel is behind them, in a purple halftone gradient. Shards of glass surround the legs like lightning bolts. The page says "you always thought that the scariest part of a leap of faith would be the fall".
Image two: The second page of a digital comic about Miles Morales from the Spider-Verse movies. The first part of the sentence says "but really... it feels like flying;". This is interspersed with close-up panels of Miles in his first black suit. There's one of his outstretched hand, one of his chest symbol, one very close to his eyes and another of his outstretched feet. Behind the panels, there's a rock pigeon mid-flight. The sentence continues with "floating;", followed by four panels of Miles floating as his fall is flipped upside down. The pose is identical in each, but the background gets gradually darker for each one. Then, "free in a way that feels unnatural -" is written, accompanied by a panel of Miles in his school uniform. You can't see above his lips and he's sweating nervously, shoulders hunched. Scribbles, like the portals on The Spot, crowd around him. The sentence finishes with "you love it". The final panel zooms into Miles' hand clutching his backpack strap. His Spider-Man suit peaks out of his sleeve.
Image three: The third page of a digital comic about Miles Morales from the Spider-Verse movies. At the top of the page is Miles' shoes stood on the side of a wall, one foot hanging over the edge slightly. Above it, it says "the fear is in the precipice -". Below the drawing, it says "the edge", alongside Miles standing on a wall from behind, cut off around the ankles. The sentence continues "and what you gaze at beyond it", the last two words in a bubbly black and white font over top of a purple halftone gradient panel. Then, the sentence finishes "(and what you're scared will slink back in)". On the left side there's two panels, one a close-up of Kingpin's tie, and the other shows The Prowler's cape laying in a pool of blood. The other side has two panels set out the same. The top panel has one of The Spot's portals, while the one below it shows Jefferson Davis' glasses discarded and broken, one lens shattered and bloody.
Image four: The fourth page of a digital comic about Miles Morales from the Spider-Verse movies. It begins with Miles' shoes, one planted on the wall while the other hangs is elevated, hanging over the edge. Two panels beneath it show his feet with one lowered slightly, and then both planted on the wall. They're accompanied by the sentence "the hovering moment where you can still simply step back". After this there's two different Miles, standing with their bodies facing the viewer but eyes facing each other. The first is taller, unmasked, and wearing his outfit from the rooftop party. His expression is pinched together, worried. The other is in his ill-fitting store-bought Spider-Man replica suit, body posed as if he's been caught by surprise. His eyes, from what is visible, are wide. Two panels separate them - one is completely black, while one has a spark of blue lightning bursting out of it. Finally, the sentence ends "... but then you'd just be there; waiting, doing nothing".
Image five: The final page of a digital comic about Miles Morales from the Spider-Verse movies. It starts with Miles' hand in the darkness, unfurling as he reaches out his index finger. Blue lightning sparks off of it, leaving his finger like a claw. This is surrounded by the line "and you can't let that happen,". Below that, Miguel O'Hara's gloved hand creeps towards Miles, curled and claws out, like he's just failed to grasp something. It is large compared to Miles, who is swinging through the air, looking back at the hand. His body is fairly loose. The page ends with the line "even if the first step is the steepest".]
Naruto: Have I told you lately that I love you? My big, strong, handsome —
Sasuke: What do you want?
Naruto: I can’t just compliment you? I can’t just express my love and devotion for you? You have no trust in me? That hurts, dattebayo.
Sasuke: … sorry. *gets into bed and puts his arms around Naruto* You know I love you, too. More than anything in the world, and —
Kurama, speaking from inside Naruto: Naruto, just tell him already, you idiot.
Sasuke: Tell me what?
Naruto: Well, um … it’s no big deal, really. It’s, uh, I was looking at the window because I heard the birds chirping, right? And while I was looking, a … a spider crawled in and went under the bookshelf …
Sasuke:
Sasuke: That’s it?? You’re a grown man, Naruto. You’re the Hokage, for sage’s sake! Get up, find a shoe, and kill it!
Naruto: I … I would, but you know Kurama is scared of spiders and won’t let me get too close, so —
Kurama: Bullshit! I’m not the one who shrieked like a baby when he saw it come in!
Naruto, blushing: I did NOT shriek like a baby! And anyways you’re my personal guard, right Sasuke?? Isn’t it your job to protect me from enemies and threats?
Sasuke, sighing and getting out of bed: Fine, fine; I’ll get it. *picks up a sandal off the floor and carefully moves the bookcase*
Sasuke:
Sasuke: … usuratonkachi? Was the spider you saw the size of a fist?
Naruto: Yeah.
Sasuke: With visible fangs?
Naruto: Yes.
Sasuke: And making a weird growling noise?
Naruto: That’s the one.
Sasuke: I see. *calmly moves the bookshelf back into place and gets up into bed, shaking like a leaf* In a situation like this, there’s only one sensible thing to do.
Naruto: I already tried calling Sakura but she’s in the middle of doing a surgery!
