Headcanon: Just because they are dating it doesn't mean they are less awkward
I was answering a comment I got, when I started thinking about what would happen if Miles and Gwen started dating?
My first thought: "Oh the adaptation period is going to be fun."
Both in fiction and in real life, you can have a period of time when friends who had been crushing for too long may be trying to not come too strong to the other person in case their new partner hasn't fallen as deeply in love as themselves.
Do I think this would happen with Miles and Gwen? Oh for sure.
Gwen in general tries to hide her emotions and while I think being with Miles will loosen her up a bit, I think she may get shy about how much she likes him (specially considering some things she did while crushing.) Miles I think would do so as well, since it has been his normal to try to tone down his crush, and seeing how "collected" Gwen can be, would try to act "cool."
All of this rambling is now for a list of headcanons of the stupid things they did because of this and that they try to hide from each other before they realize how silly they are.
Let's go!
Tumblr media Tumblr media
They both do a victory lap, or the spidey equivalent, swinging across their respective New York after Miles asked Gwen out.
Miles is the loudest, swinging across the streets while screaming in excitement a few times, including one time when he screams "SHE LIKES MEEEEEE."
This ends up with a bunch of people online not only reposting clips of the video where he screams that, but people speculating who could be the mystery girl who seems to like him. Miles panics thinking Gwen may think he is cheating on her and Ganke needs to be there to calm him down and devise a plan to get gossip people into something else.
Gwen isn't much better, she doesn't really scream anything, however she ends up doing a bunch of daredevil tricks and jumps because her excitement manifests in see-how-many-gymnastics-record-I-can-break.
She ends up scaring the living shit out of her dad, who was trying to react very normally when a coworker show him a clip of just a part of it (she literally did this by a good part of the city, so there are different videos.) The gymnastic Olympic team of the United States is once again trying to recruit Spider-Woman. There are now people making recompilations of videos to see if there is a way to catch the whole thing, and some people had noticed that in some clips it almost looks like she is squealing.
Gwen recruited Peni's help to take down the most incriminating videos, mostly because it was impossible to take all of them down. She also begged Peni to have a way for her dad to not find some videos on his phone. I imagine her dad may be a bit protective of her and while Gwen told him she is dating Miles, she doesn't want her dad to realize how madly she is in love with him.
(He knows, he remembers the Polaroid.)
Because of this, the first few days together they try end up planning dates in other universes, because both of them are waiting for those videos to not be trending. Gwen ends up dancing with Miles in Hobie's universe, while Miles shows Gwen a crazy arcade in Margo's universe.
Miles is ALWAYS smiling, depending on how much he has been in his mind he may look more lovesick or casual. Everyone has been teasing him, Ganke, his parents and Peter B the most.
I already headcanon that Gwen is actually a cuddle bug, she just has trouble leaning into others because of her vulnerability issues. So Gwen is constantly trying to measure how much she tries to hug him, to not look too eager to take his hand or lean on his shoulder. Is a tougher battle than she ever wants to admit.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Miles ends up drawing Gwen even more often, especially since he has pictures of her and stuff; so before he knows it, he ends up with this beautiful mural of her. He isn't sure when to reveal it to her because he has added so many little detail and drawings he is afraid to come out as creepy.
Like many people, I headcanon Gwen has tried writing songs about Miles. Well the new relationship status made her finish one of those songs, which her bandmates liking, and Hobie also insisted she should play it next time in his universe.
"Next Time" ends up having the spideygang (Miles, Pavitr, Margo and Peni,) at the concert. Hobie remarks that the next song is written by his drummer, and it doesn't take long for Miles to be smiling once more like a lovesick puppy once the lyrics appear.
Gwen is a bit embarrassed, but he says he loved the song, and he would love to hear more if she ever does. He shares some of his art, and she is, of course, melting.
He doesn't take too long before showing Gwen the mural, and Gwen loves it. Is hidden below a bridge, in a place you can only see while being upside down; and she adores how Miles shown her drumming, her dance, he captures her from her eyes to the little tooth gap she has, and yet Gwen cannot stop being amazed at how despite showing all those things she considers flaws, she looks beautiful in all of them.
Miles shrugs saying "I just draw you like I see you."
And THEN, they become a couple of dorks in love who everyone else is getting kind of sick of how corny they are. But they are kind of stupid for each other and had been holding it for a while, so why not scream it from the rooftops?

i have the weighted dinosaur plush from target and i just like carrying her around and i think trouble would have one but just carry it around her dorm when she’s trying to focus or she’s stressed🫶🏻 she takes it to peters sometimes he keeps it safe
(i have the pink dino but i think trouble would have the green one. his name is George)
this but:::
trouble's going out of town and can't take any of her plushies because she doesn't have the room, and yes, they're just stuffies but they mean a whole lot to her and knowing they'd be alone in her room for days on end made her stomach tug.
so, the night before her trip she goes to peter's with three stuffed animals hugged in her arms. she gently kicks the door open and peter looks up at her with wide eyes looking at what's in her hold.
'sleepover party?'
for whatever reason she's kind of nervous to ask, maybe it's because she knows it's a little childish. she's sheepish when she asks, looking down at her friends and feeling a little braver, they always had her back.
'it's kind of silly, but i was wondering if you'd let them stay with you while i'm gone?' peter feels like his hearts been melted down, but he must not show it on his face because she rambles on.
'i just hate the idea of them being alone for three days, and i know you probably think im stupid but,'
'i don't think you're stupid, trouble. i think you're a good mommy and you wanna make sure your babies will be safe with step dad.'
she jilts the longhorn up slightly, 'this one is yours.' peter's hands stretch out, 'let me see my son,' and when she approaches, peter gently takes freddy, giving a soft hello to spidey and george.
'i'd love to watch the kids for a weekend, special instructions?'
'just make sure you love them lots.'
----
bonus: he totally does, and sends pictures throughout the day. but her favorites are the ones he sends at bedtime with a 'goodnight mommy, we're having so much fun and making so many new friends. we miss you almost as much as dad does.'

Training Simulation
Summary: the spider-gang end up in a training simulator with Doctor Octopus as their nemesis. But when the training AI discovers a weakness that all the spideys share, the AI goes a little haywire. TW: swearing, British slang and a spoiler for ITSV.
“I’m just so bored,” Miles groaned. “Nothing to do.”
“It’s because of capitalism. Boredom is supposed to drive you to want a job,” Hobie theorized.
“I would literally rather fight Doctor Octopus again than be this bored,” Gwen whined. Pavitr just nodded.
“Oh, really?” Miguel stalked over to where the teens were sitting, slouched in their seats. “You guys are bored?”
“How did you hear that?” Pavitr whispered, terrified.
“I hear everything,” Miguel hissed. “Lyla, are there any training rooms for them to use up their energy in?”
“One just opened up,” Lyla chirped. “It’s in Sector 5. Margo’s over there.”
“You’re going to love the training simulation rooms,” Margo said, showing them to an empty room.
“What sort of training is this?” Gwen asked.
“Well, being Spiderman means you deal with a wide range of villains, which look different depending on which dimension you’re in. They look different, act different, have different identities behind their own villain identities.”
You don’t have to remind me, Gwen thought, thinking of her Peter becoming the Lizard.
“I’m personally really proud of it because I did the AI programming myself,” Margo said, her tone sounding proud. “I programmed it to search for weaknesses and use them in the same way the villain would if they found out.”
“Which villain are we fightin’, then?” Hobie asked.
“Doctor Octopus,” Margo said. “The villains are on rotation. Last week, it was Mysterio. And the week before that, it was Scorpion.”
“Oh,” Miles said. Margo wasn’t walking with them any more; she had herded them into the training simulation room and was on the outside of the room plugging instructions in.
“Have fun!” she smiled as she closed the door on them. Doctor Octopus spawned in, a male version with a bowl cut and a German accent.
“Hello, little spiders,” he purred.
“Who’s this twat callin’ little?” Hobie asked, gesturing to his lanky frame. “That’s it!” Hobie ran towards the scientist supervillain, guitar raised to hit him on the head like he did to the president.
“What are you doing?” Gwen snapped.
“He got on my nerves,” Hobie yelled, leaping into the air to attack him from above. He was suspended in the air by a tentacle.
“That’s an interesting weapon,” the supervillain said, taking Hobie’s guitar and throwing it at the wall. It shattered into long wooden splinters.
“My friend gave me that guitar, you fuckin’ wanker!” Hobie yelled, angrily trying to pry himself out of the tentacle’s grip. A second tentacle ended up underneath his arm to pull it away, squeezing at his armpit.
They weren’t expecting to hear a snort of laughter.
“Get your nasty little tentacles away from mehehehehe!” Hobie giggled.
“Oh, does the little spider have a weakness?” Doctor Octopus taunted, more tentacles latching onto more ticklish spots.
“What is happening?” Miles asked.
“Hobie’s secretly really ticklish,” Gwen explained, teasing.
“And it’s adorable!” Pavitr gushed.
“IHIHIHIT’S NOT ADORABLE!” Hobie yelled through his laughter.
“I wonder if the other spiders have the same weakness,” Doc Ock said, as more versions of the same villain came in. Miles recognized the one from his own dimension. Pavitr’s one looked terrifying, a demonic entity with six arms and shoulder armour. Gwen’s universe didn’t have a Doctor Octopus, so they borrowed one from another universe. The first thing they saw was Hobie laughing himself silly with tentacles squeezing at every available ticklish spot. And, since every version of Doctor Octopus was incredibly clever and vindictive, they got the hint fast.
“I can’t believe I didn’t think of this ages ago! A chance to find out more about Spiderman’s nervous system right in the palm of my hands!” 1610 Doc Ock laughed, as a robot arm restrained Miles’ wrist and human arms traced Miles’ ribcage. The other three robot arms squeezed at his tummy.
“I thought you got hit by a truck!” he giggled.
“What truck?” she asked.
“THA-THA-THAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!” Miles dissolved into laughter.
“Honestly, I didn’t think our little arachnid foes were so easily defeated,” 50101 Doctor Octopus said. Pavitr was in fits of laughter in his many arms, the laughter ranging from fits of giggles to full-on belly laughs. Gwen wasn’t having much luck, either. Her uniform was thin and didn’t protect her at all.
“Hey, is it - OH MY GOD!” Margo gasped as she saw the previous confident and bored spider variants in the throes of laughter.
“HEHEHEHEHEHEHEHEHELP!” Miles yelled.
“On it!” Margo made copies of herself to turn off the simulation, letting the giggling teens relax. “I’m so sorry! There was only supposed to be one! I don’t know what happened!”
“It’s fine, lemme . . .” Hobie got up and collapsed.
“That took a lot out of you,” Margo observed. “Come on.” More copies appeared, picking up the exhausted kids and taking them away.
“We do not need to go to some dumb medical centre,” Miles groaned.
“You’re not. You’re going to the cosy room. It’s a room full of blankets, pillows, sofas, and beds. You’ll love it so much.” Margo kept walking, dragging the others away.
The room was a paradise. Soft blankets, a huge bed right in the middle of a sea of sofas and giant pillows. They were placed into the large bed side by side, the biggest blue blanket draped over them. Then, she backed out of the room slowly, not wanting to disturb their slumber. Once she was out of earshot, she raced back to the training simulation room and called Lyla.
“Lyla, are the training sessions recorded?”
“Yes!” the bubbly AI’s voice replied.
“Good. Send a copy of the training session by Miles Morales, Gwen Stacy, Pavitr Prabhakar and Hobie Brown directly to me,” Margo said conspiratorially.
“Done it.”

Why it's the right time for a third season of The Spectacular Spider-Man
Tumblr media
While Spider-Man 2 and Spider-Man: The Animated Series were my introduction to the character of Spidey, Spectacular Spider-Man was how I truly fell in love with the character.
I was obsessed with the show as a child. I had nearly every action figure, I'd rewatch episodes (shoutout "Group Therapy", it's my favorite), and even tried to make the theme song my ringtone.
Tumblr media
As I went on in my years and consumed so much Spider-Man content, I always found myself comparing it to Spectacular Spider-Man.
Did the voice match as well as Keaton's, was the style of the character simple yet unique to what we've seen before, how are the quips?
I did this so much, that earlier this year I wondered if I was just wearing nostalgia glasses. That maybe I was misremembering as one does. So, I rewatched the entire show with my partner...
...and I was NOT.
Tumblr media
It is concise, it is beautiful, and every episode at the very least is fun. There is no villain that doesn't get their due, there is no arc that isn't important, and there is not a moment where Josh Keaton is embodying the best voice for Peter Parker or Spider-Man.
As you might've been able to tell by my Young Justice article, I am a huge fan of the storytelling ability of Greg Weismann. But I think it is really put on display in this show. Every beat feels important, most characters have solid arcs, and suspense and danger always feel real and earned.
Tumblr media
With my rewatch, Spectacular Spider-Man's recent inclusion in Across the Spider-Verse, and the fanbase continuing to rage on, I thought I'd put my two cents in as to why it's time this show is brought back.
Clearly I'm biased but I don't care.
1. New Villains
Tumblr media
Spectacular Spider-Man had a great way of bringing in classic villains and even B-list villains and making them iconic.
My favorite example of this was The Shocker, who in this version was also Montana, leader of the Enforcers.
By doing this, they made one of Spider-Man silliest enemies into a character who feels like the most qualified killer in every room he's in.
Because such time has passed since season 2, new and different Spider-Man villains have entered the zeitgeist. The Prowler, The Spot, and Mr Negative are great examples of villains who weren't well known when the show was originally going on.
Tumblr media
There were also several different villains teased during the 1st and 2nd season. The promise of Carnage, Hydro Man, Man-Wolf, and Hobgoblin never came to be, and fans of the show remember!
Tumblr media
Much like every character, several villains in the show were left on cliffhangers. Hammerhead and Silver Sable were left without any bosses. Harry was left fatherless. Black Cat hates Spider-Man for letting her father stay in prison. And New York was left without a Big Man.
It'd be very exciting to see who might take over after a situation like that.
2. New Heroes
Tumblr media
Unlike other superhero shows, Spectacular Spider-Man lacks many if any team ups.
Since it's cancellation, we have had several Spider-Verse crossovers, and Spider-Gwen and Miles Morales have entered the main stream.
Tumblr media
Making Gwen a Spider and introducing Miles into the friend group could add more tension to the Peter and Harry dynamic as he feels left out and an eerie feeling something is going on.
The potential for Spectacular Spider-Man to enter a wider Marvel universe is now possible, with Disney now owning the rights for television.
Tumblr media
We could see Peter join the Avengers, fight alongside Ms. Marvel, even switch bodies with Wolverine.
I'm not saying this SHOULD happen, but we do know that Greg Weismann knows how to build out a universe.
Tumblr media
3. Not Enough (Good) Animated Spidey Content
Tumblr media
Since Spectacular Spider-Man, we've had two different animated Spider-Man shows. Ultimate Spider-Man and Marvel's Spider-Man.
While Ultimate Spider-Man had a silly interesting tone, and an overarching story that was interesting at times, it paled in comparison to what came before.
Tumblr media
Many of the characters lacked depth, and the jokes just didn't hit the same. But at least that show had charm.
Marvel's Spider-Man did not.
The animation was boring, the characters lacked the fun and whimsy of both the others, and every character felt exaggerated. It was painful to watch.
The next Spider-Man show we are getting is entitled Spider-Man Freshman year, set within the MCU.
Tumblr media
While it looks promising and different, due to the writers strike, the MCU constantly pushing projects back, and Marvel Studios constantly over working VFX and animation studios, I don't see this one coming out any time soon.
Which leaves a window for Spectacular Spider-Man to fill. We've gone too long without animated Spidey content on television!!
and most importanty:
4. Josh Keaton is just the Best Spider-Man
Tumblr media
Holland. Maguire. Garfield. Johnson. Lowenthal. Moore. The question keeps coming up. Who is the best Spider-Man?
But oh they are all wrong.
So soon the public forget how perfect Keaton's acting is. He nails the quips like Garfield. The inner monologues like Maguire. The awkward nerdiness like Holland. And he nailed the blacksuit storyline.
He perfected it all.
Keaton's Spider-Man is on pair with Kevin Conroy's Batman. It is the voice I hear when I read the comics, and it works on every level.
At 44, Keaton still sounds like Peter Parker, and could continue doing the show now as if it never ended. But frankly, we don't know how long that will last, or how long Keaton would be interested in continuing this version of the character. Now is the time to give him that call!
In this era of oh so many Spider-Men, it's time the king took back his crown. There's a reason he's the animated Spider-Man that made it into Across the Spider-Verse.
Now is the time to bring it back. The fans want it. Keaton wants it. It would be a win for everyone.
Let's just hope Disney isn't stupid enough to miss that.

TW : medicine (pills), language, spidey stuff, confusion, needles, night terrors, peter being peter, casper being casper, drugs, violence. let me know if i missed anything
~~~
it’s been a week since you’ve been back in your own body, and you’ve hit the living shit out of khonshu- but it’s been a calm week.
you’d explained to casper that you weren’t in the right state of mind and he understood, things going back to normal after that.
well, as normal as it gets around here.
here being trying to french braid jakes hair while he complains about you pulling too hard.
“cariño mio- must you tug so hard?” jake asks you and you hum. 
“yes. i must” you answer, almost finishing the braid that goes right down the center of his head, the sides still being down since that hair isn’t long enough.
“are you almost done?” he complains and you scoff.
“yes. and it wouldn’t take so long if you didn’t have crusty old man hair” you respond, taking a hair tie off your wrist to secure the braid.
“now you’re done, you baby” you jump over the edge of the couch to sit next to jake, who looked to you.
“does it look good?”
“mhmm” you assure him and he nods.
“now do khonshus” he suggests and you chuckle.
“he doesn’t have hair”
“get him a wig”
“i spend too much money on marshmallows so no, i’m not buying him any more shit”
jake laughs at your response, and sighs after. “you spoil him too much, princesa” he tells you and you nod.
“i can’t help it” you shrug. 
“isn’t it your bedtime?” marc asks sarcastically and you glare at him.
“no” you deny it, and shakes your head, unable to keep back a yawn as if on cue.
“no?” marc says rhetorically.
“okay- fine” you get up off the couch with your hands up, heading to the bathroom to change and take your medicine.
once you do so, you come out and find that steven was now fronting, and sitting on the bed.
you were at his place after all, you practically live there more than half the time now.
“come on, i’ll stay until you fall asleep, but we’ll probably gone still when you wake up” he says sadly and you form a pout on your face.
“don’t give me that look, it just makes this harder” steven informs you as you sit down on his bed.
“when do you think you’ll be back?” you question, and steven hums.
“marc said a little before lunch- and we’ll pick you up something to make up for it” he answers quickly and you chuckle.
“you better” you tell him playfully and he ruffles your hair before pushing you down.
“okay, sleep now so we can get going” you hear marc’s voice.
you groan and turn your body so that you’re head is on the pillow, steven pulling up one of the small blankets to cover you.
“i promise we’ll be back before you know it” steven tells you, kissing the side of your head before standing up and backing away.
“please be safe guys” you say in a louder voice, to make sure all three of them heard you.
and they did, all of them giving you verbal agreement that they’d be safe.
“now close your eyes, it’s almost midnight” marc tells you, and you scoff, burying your face in the pillow.
“bye guys, love you”
the three of them all responded with, “love you too, kid”, “yo tambien te amo, buenas noches”, and “night, love” before leaving, while you let out a breath and try to go to sleep.
you knew they’d be okay, they were capable of beating the worst villains out there- plus with layla who is a total badass.
speaking of layla, you put a mental reminder in your head to call her tomorrow.
and after that, you fell right asleep. peacefully.
or so you thought.
~~~
your brain feels like it’s buzzing- the noise being unbearable.
you can’t feel anything, and your eyes refuse to open.
“..miss y/n?” you hear a familiar voice, but it’s muffled since your ears also feel like someone shoved a ton of cotton balls in them.
you finally regain feeling in everything, and slowly blink open your eyes, instantly noticing the bright lights and white colored walls surrounding you.
you panic as your breathing quickens, looking around the unfamiliar room.
“miss y/n?” you hear the voice again, all too clear.
you flinch at the sudden sound and look back forwards, clutching onto the arms of the chair you were in.
“steven?!” you exclaim, launching yourself out of your chair just to fall forwards onto the desk, steven putting down the clipboard he was holding and coming around to help you back into the chair.
he puts an arm around your back and one of his hands holding yours, leading you to sit back down.
“careful, the sedative we gave you is quite strong” he advises, leaning on the desk in front of you, hands clasped in front of him while you blink rapidly.
“sedative..?” you trail off, noticing the strange outfit steven was wearing- khakis and a white collared shirt under a brown sweater vest.
along with his glasses on the bridge of his nose.
“yes, you had another outburst” he starts, your breathing quickening again.
“you almost managed to leave this time, but don’t worry, you’re safe now” you get the feeling he was trying to be comforting, but instead it sent a chill down your spine.
“where are we? what the hell is going on?” you ask shakily, feeling tears well up in your eyes.
“that’s a silly question.” steven chuckles. “you’re home” he shrugs with a crooked smile.
you shake your head slowly, gripping the armrests again and gritting your teeth.
“this isn’t home- i don’t know where i am!“ you exclaim, steven tensing in the slightest. 
“i want to go back to your flat! the one in london! we- you- i- i live in an apartment in london. that’s my home” you say sternly.
steven hums and adjusts his glasses before speaking again. “no, y/n. this is your home and it has been for a while” he starts.
“you’re in the putnam medical facility here in chicago illinois” he explains and you shake your head.
“when i fell asleep i was in your flat. in london” you grit out, glaring at steven who looks at you with pity filled eyes.
“when you fell asleep, it was after you disarmed two of the nurses here” he starts again, you scoffing. “we had to sedate you again, and for that i apologize” he puts a hand to his heart, talking slowly.
“no” you mutter. “this isn’t real- steven whatever joke you’re playing- it isn’t funny. please stop” you shake your head, squeezing your eyes closed as you try to take steady breaths.
you hear steven let out a breath. “i can assure you that this is real, i’m your doctor, y/n” you look up from your seat.
“and you are my patient, it’s my job to take care of you” he says slowly which has you shaking your head again.
“no no no” you chant over and over again, building up all the strength in your body to try and get out of the chair.
steven straightens himself, ready to help you in case you fall over again.
“you’re.. you’re lying. this is a sick joke” you try to convince yourself.
“y/n.. please sit back down, we can talk-“
“i don’t want to talk!” you snap, pointing a finger in stevens face. “i want to go home- to MY home in LONDON” you exclaim.
“you hear me?! LONDON!” you yell in his face, making him put a hand to your shoulder just to have you push it away.
“please calm down, remember the breathing exercises we practiced last week?” he asks, and you scoff.
“no. and you know why? because i was at home last week- with you.. and marc… and jake.. i..” you trial off.
“wait- marc and jake, where a they?” you look around at the windows reflections, noticing that they are the same as the actual person in front of you.
it reminds you of when you first met jake.
“they are on sabbatical at the moment, but don’t worry you’ll see them again” steven waves you off, moving closer to you as you take stuttered steps back.
“where..”
“oh! they’re in the headspace, they don’t like interacting outside the body” he nods to himself.
this was the exact opposite of what they liked.
marc and jake- and even steven didn’t mind talking when they weren’t in the body.
your mind was swarming in confusion- this all felt so real yet you keep trying to convince yourself it’s a dream.
“yes they do” you start, making steven give you a confused face. “they talk to me all the time”
steven just chuckles, and your face pales as he brings an orange bottle out of his pocket.
“i think it’s time to take your medication” he reaches a hand out towards you, the other still holding the pill bottle.
“no” you back away a little faster, steven slowly taking steps towards you.
“that wasn’t a question” he says in a sickly sweet tone, making a tear roll down your cheek.
this wasn’t your steven.
this wasn’t your steven at all.
you eventually run into the locked door, turning around quickly to bang on it as hard as you can while trying to open it.
“LET ME OUT! SOMEBODY PLEASE-“ you choke on your own words, feeling more tears form.
“you’ll feel better after you take your medicine, y/n” steven says, reaching you and slowly reaching out to grab your hand, you trying to sink away from him even though you’re backed up against the door.
“no- please” you feel your hands shake, one of them being grasped by stevens.
“you have to, it makes you feel better” he tries to reason with you. “i’ve noticed when you don’t take it, you can be quite the trouble maker” he tries to joke with you, slowly pulling your sluggish body away from the door by your hand.
you look back towards the door, wishing you could’ve figured out a way to open it, and by the time you look away from it you’re already back in the chair.
you keep a heavy glare trained on steven as he dumps two pills into his hand, and putting them into yours while handing you a glass of water.
“go on, take the-“ stevens cut off by you shooting up in the chair, throwing the pills to the ground and smashing the glass cup to the ground as well, water flying everywhere.
steven flinched, backing away and pressing a button under the desk.
“i’m not taking any damn pills- let me leave” you say darkly, steven giving you a look of guilt.
“you’ve never acted like this before- sure you’ve had outbursts but-“
“but what? this is all a dream” you shake your head, steven tilting his head at you.
“when i wake up i’ll be back home” you laugh to yourself uneasily, making steven try his best not to back away.
“so you know what? fuck you- and fuck all of this” you end it darkly, two figures barging into the room, one with a needle.
your face drops at the sight, and flashes of the man that took your blood plague your mind for a moment- making you back away slowly.
“wait you didn’t say anything about a needle-“ you turn to steven angrily.
“what did you think we meant by sedative?” he asks calmly and you panic when the two people come closer.
you suddenly feel the adrenaline fade- making you tired and not able to make a run for the open door.
“no- wait wait wait- please not the needle!” you plead with the two nurses, both of them looking to each other for a moment before coming closer, easily holding you still as you feel a prick in the back of your neck.
“wait- steven..” you trail off, feeling your eyelids become heavy again, steven waving to you as you fall to the floor unconscious.
~~~
you woke up panting, a cold sweat running down you neck while you rub your eyes.
you take a few calming breaths before you look down and see that you’re in a bed you don’t recognize.
you shoot up in the bed, throwing the white covers off of you to shove yourself in a corner of the all white room.
staring at the door, you feel your throat tighten and your eyes water, just letting tears freely flow down your cheeks.
what was going on..?
you wanted to wake up from this nightmare. 
but it felt like this nightmare was a reality.
you had no idea at this point, you just felt like those doctors probably pumped you full of drugs.
you slowly blink and you quietly sob into one of your hands, the other picking at the white long sleeve shirt you had on.
you had your knees to your chest, the white of everything becoming too overwhelming.
you wanted to just snap out of whatever this was and find yourself back in steven, marc, and jakes bed.
the dark academia vibes consuming you- the smell of the books and the hum of the lights in gus’ tank.
you missed it.
you missed home.
you’re broken from your thought when the door unlocks and clicks open, and you immediately notice marc’s posture by the way he walked in and calmly sat on the messed up bed after locking the door behind him.
he let you stare at him before he spoke, letting your tears calm and your breathing to become not so rapid.
“how are you feeling?” he asks, him wearing something different to steven- that being just dark pants and a dark blue button up.
you don’t answer him, you just keep staring.
marc sighs and you flinch, making him tilt his head at you. “i’m not here to hurt you. nobody is” he says in a calm voice.
“then how come i feel like i was just hit with a bus?” you ask sarcastically in a raspy voice.
marc hums and runs a hand through his hair. “it was for your own good” he informs you and you scoff.
“my own good..?” you echo back and he nods.
“maybe seeing your father would put you back in the right mindset?” he suggest and you look at him wide eyed.
“he’s dead.. and even if he was alive i wouldn’t want to see him” you try to tell marc but he just chuckles.
“this just be the drugs talking, you love seeing him” he gets up from his spot and offers a hand to you.
when you don’t take it, marc just takes it upon him to lift you up and basically carry you outside the room.
you just let him, you could barely move.
when you first woke up it was another adrenaline rush, and just moving to the corner of the room had tired you out.
marc set you down in a wheelchair, and you limply sit in it as he pushes you through a set of doors to a huge open room- one man sitting calmly on a couch sipping tea.
you recognized him instantly.
it was arthur harrow.
you squirm in your seat as much as you can, pushing yourself into it as marc pushes you closer to your ‘father’.
“is she alright?” harrow asks marc, and he smiles in return while nodding, stopping pushing you when you’re right in front of harrow.
“i’ll give you two some time” marc says quietly, leaving the room while you stare ahead in fear.
“y/n?” harrow says quietly, making you dart your eyes to him specifically.
“why am i here..?” you murmur to yourself.
“you don’t remember?” harrow asks you genuinely and you make a face.
“remember what?” you ask in return, wanting to know what his answer would be.
“your friend.. what was his name..” he starts. “ah! casper! that’s it, he and his mom dropped you off here to get you help” he says and you scoff.
“..why would he do that?” you ask hesitantly.
harrow looks down then back up at you. “because of your schizophrenia, dear” he informs you and you shake your head.
“don’t call me that. you’re not my father” you shake your head and feel your eye twitch.
“he wouldn’t do that- he said i wasn’t crazy” you start ranting. “he said- he said he didn’t think i was crazy- why would he bring me here?” your breathing quickens again and harrow puts and hand up to try and calm you down.
“i need to get out of here” you whisper to yourself, harrows eyes widening at that.
“but this is your home-“
“THIS IS NOT MY HOME!” you yell at him, forcing yourself out of the wheelchair to make your way to the window leading to outside, harrow leaving the room.
you make it to the window and start punching it as hard as you can, the glass cracking under the pressure while your knuckles get cut up and bleed.
you didn’t care about the stinging pain though, all you cared about was getting out of there.
one last punch and the glass shatters, and you cover your face with your arms until it stops falling.
you smile to yourself for a split second before climbing out, again not caring about any new injuries you could’ve gotten.
you limp behind some bushes outside when you hear people rush into the room you were just in.
so you put a hand to your mouth to keep your breathing quiet as they all look out the window for you.
you close your eyes and pray that they can’t see you behind the bushes, and when you hear them go back inside you let out a quiet breath of relief, sinking to the ground in exhaustion.
the relief doesn’t last long when you open your eyes again though.
you came face to face with none other than jake lockley.
standing in front of you, looking down at you with a stern look on his face.
he had an outfit change as well, now in a full black tux with a leather jacket over it.
and don’t forget the matching hat.
“are you lost, querida?” he asks and you back yourself up into the bushes, getting dust and dirt all over your white clothes.
jake clicks his tongue and crouches down in front of you, making sure to keep a tight grip on your ankle to keep you from moving further away.
he tilts his head at you and scoffs. “i thought you were smarter than this” he murmurs, picking you up and throwing you over his shoulder like you weighed nothing.
you didn’t have the energy to try and fight him, you only had the energy to lightly hit his back with shaky hands as you cried for him to let you go.
and another pinch in the back of the neck later, you were out again.
~~~
this time you woke up restrained.
in a new room, new clothes, and the restraints being a straight jacket wrapped tightly around you.
you looked around you properly and saw that you were in a padded room, with only a small section of what you assumed was a see through mirror.
they were probably looking at you from the other side, thinking you were too dumb to realize.
you tried to get your arms free, which was useless because you could barely move them an inch, not even able to stand up either.
you throw your head back against the soft wall, until you hear the door click.
inside came marc- back in the clothes he had on earlier- and layla, in a doctors outfit. a stethoscope around her neck and several pens in her white coats pocket.
marc locks the door again, both of them moving to stand in front of you, while you look up at them with fear and confusion. 
“you’ve never acted like this before. has something happened?” layla asks in a slightly higher pitched voice than you remember.
“…i..is this real..?” you hesitated in asking, fearing the answer.
“why of course it is” layla tells you and you nod to yourself, looking down and taking deep breaths.
you shove your face into your knees, them being brought up to your chest.
“i knew i’d end up in here” you mutter to yourself.
“i forget to take my medication once and now.. now i’m officially crazy” you say to yourself, blocking out everything around you.
you then start to hear music, the song blitzkrieg bop, but very muffled.
you head shoots up, seeing layla and marc no where, and you stare forward, wondering what could be going on.
“what now..?” you whisper to yourself, closing your eyes and trying to block out the noise.
the music gets louder and louder while it throbs in your head, making you grit your teeth and let out a pained groan.
it continues until you feel like your head is about to split open- and that’s when the miracle happens.
~~~
you shoot up again- blitzkrieg bop playing faintly from your phone, which was on stevens nightstand beside you.
wait.
stevens nightstand.
your phone.
you look around on surprise, finally seeing the flat as tears rush to your eyes again.
this time, the tears being real.
“oh my god..” you murmur to yourself, grabbing the pillow you were laying on and shoving your face into it, breathing in the familiar scent of your boys.
you missed them way more than usual now, wanting to make sure this wasn’t another part of that all too realistic nightmare.
the song- which you now registered as the ringtone you had set for peter- stopped then played again, signaling that he was calling you for a second time.
that you know of.
you pick up your phone, seeing that it was 3 in the morning, only being almost 4 hours since your boys left.
seeing peters name pop up again made you worry.
was he in trouble? did he need your help?
you answer the call and put the phone to your ear to hear a relieved sigh.
“i’m so so sorry did i wake you up? i shouldn’t have kept calling” you listen to peter apologize with a smile on your face as you stare around the apartment, overly joyed to be home.
“peter”
“..yeah?”
“you didn’t wake me up, you’re fine” you say quietly, scared your voice might break.
“oh uhh.. are you sure?”
“mhmm” you start, still scanning around the room while speaking. “why are you calling me?”
“i’m on the roof”
“what?”
“my spidey senses were going crazy- and they stopped when i got on the roof so i thought it would have something to do with you” he explains and you furrow your brows.
his senses were going off because they somehow knew you needed to be woken up from that.. very realistic nightmare?
hm.
thank god for peter parker.
“..i can sense your sadness” peter starts. “come up here” he hangs up.
you scoff and take one last good look around the apartment, seeing gus happily float around in his tank before leaving out the window.
once you get to the roof, peter was playing some calming music off his phone and waiting for you, leaning on one of the vents.
“are you alright?” he asks you and you nod, him obviously noticing your shaken up form.
“..it was a nightmare” he states and you freeze. “wasn’t it?”
another slow nod, and you look down until peter comes over and takes your hands in his.
“don’t let it freak you out too much, it’s not real” he tells you softly and you nod again, already tearing up.
“oh, y/n” he says and pulls you into a light hug, letting you silently cry into his shoulder while lightly swaying to the calm music.
your tears stopped and you still found yourself swaying back and forth with peter, him having both his arms around your back.
“better?” he asks and you nod into his shoulder.
“good” he starts. “just.. if you ever need to talk.. just remember that your big bro spider-man is always here to help” he says and you snort.
“hey- don’t laugh at me” peter ends up chuckling as well, and you break the swaying hug to try and attempt to spin him, which resulted in him almost falling over while both of you share a laugh.
you two are terrible dancers. but that didn’t stop you from dancing for about a half hour until you got tired again.
“would you want to meet here again tomorrow? for spidey stuff?” peter asks while helping you back into the apartments window.
“of course, who would pass up training with their big bro, spider-man?” you ask sarcastically and you see peters cheeks flush.
you chuckle and pat his shoulder. “yeah, i’ll be there” you say and he smiles at you.
“see you then” he nods, jumping back onto the roof to get his stuff.
you closed and locked the window, and once you look around you get scared to go back to sleep.
even though you knew it was a dream, it felt so real. it really felt like everyone just abandoned you.
you really thought you were crazy.
you were tired though, so you couldn’t help it when you hugged the pillow to your chest when you eventually lay down, falling asleep again.
this time, peaceful and dreamless.
~~~
when you woke again it was calm.
and you were beyond relieved that you found yourself in the flat where you fell asleep.
no more white walls, and no more creepy vibes coming from here.
just silence, and you loved it.
you look down at yourself after throwing the blanket off you, seeing that you’re indeed still in your darker clothes you went to sleep in.
you were debating on telling the guys about your vividly realistic nightmare, pros and cons coming with it.
they could think you’re making it up, and that you’re actually crazy and throw you in the loony bin.
or they’d comfort you and try to make your day better.
you knew they wouldn’t think you’re crazy but the thought always passes through your mind.
one thing did cross your mind though. was harrow trying to communicate with you through your dreams?
you wouldn’t put it past him, and he did talk to you out of a sacrificial corpse.
someone must have found a way to let him contact you without actually coming into contact with you.
he still had plenty of followers around the globe, maybe they were helping his spirit get to you.
well, whatever he wanted to say he didn’t say it. he wanted you to stay trapped in the nightmare to make you believe that it was reality.
he wanted to get on your hood side so that when you woke up you’d carry on his legacy.
bring real justice unlike whatever khonshu was doing.
you shook your head and took in a breath, picking up your phone to check the time.
it was only 7 in the morning, so you still had a while before your boys got back.
you sigh and as if on cue, casper’s name lights up on your phone, signaling that he was calling you.
you furrow your brows and answer it on speaker, curious as to why he was calling you so early in the morning.
“y/n!” he yells into the phone making you snort.
“yes?”
“you’ll never guess what i just found outside my house!” he exclaims again and you get curious.
“what is it?” you start. “and calm down” you add on and casper hums in acknowledgment.
“i found kittens!” he whisper shouts into the phone, making you gasp.
“ohmigosh how many?” you ask, sitting up against the headboard, phone resting in your lap.
“only two. but my dad doesn’t want them in the and i don’t know what to do” he ends sadly and you sigh.
“i’ve been sitting outside and feeding them for a while.. and everyone that walks past doesn’t want one” he explains.
“i’ll take them” you blurt out, making casper gasp.
“really? you’re a life saver! when do you think you can get them?” he asks and you swipe down your screen to see it’s been about a half hour since you got up, the exact time being 7:32.
“i can come right now” you respond. “but i’ll have to be quick”
“okay. thanks again, y/n” casper ends before you hang up and swing your legs over the bed.
you grab your jacket from where it was on the floor and put it on, slipping your phone in the pocket and putting your shoes on.
you unlock the door when you get to it and leave almost right away, speed walking down the hall after locking the door again behind you.
you basically ran out of the building.
you were excited to take kittens home, plus you had to be there when everyone got back.
plus you had to hide the kittens.
you’d figure it out as you go.
you got to casper’s house really quickly, he was waiting for you outside on the steps, the kittens just sitting there.
one of them was completely black, with pretty blue eyes. the other was a calico, with bright green eyes.
“holy shit” you breath out, casper chuckling at your expression as you crouch down next to him and put your hand out to let’s the cats approach you.
“yeah, i had the same reaction” casper tells you, and you can tell he’s all of a sudden very nervous.
he kept picking at his fingers while avoiding eye contact.
“is everything alright?” you ask, scratching behind the calicos ears and the black one rubs against your legs.
“yeah, yeah, it’s just-“
“you can talk to me” you say, lightly elbowing him in the knee and moving to sit on the steps next to him.
“can i be honest with you?” he asks hesitantly and you nod.
“every time i see you.. i just.. all i can think about is when we kissed and it makes me nervous because we never talked about it and-“
“casper”
“i’m so sorry- listen, i can-“
“casper”
“no just listen to me!” he exclaims and you nod, putting your hands up in surrender.
“let me take you out” he blurts and you keep nodding, hiding a small smile behind your hand.
“yeah- okay” you answer, one of the kittens hopping up into your lap.
“cool” he coughs awkwardly, helping you stand, you now holding the kitten that hopped in your lap.
“i’ll uh.. i’ll text you” he finishes, bending down to hand you the other kitten.
you’re now holding the two small animals to your chest, them hiding their faces into your shirt.
“i’ll see you then” you say awkwardly, slowly backing up to get back home.
casper hums and waves to you shortly before heading back inside his house.
it was a very quick and awkward interaction, but you couldn’t think about that now, you had to get home.
~~~
they could be home any minute now.
it was almost noon, like they said and the damn cats wouldn’t stay put in the bathtub where you had wanted to hide them.
just until you could leave them alone at your place.
even though casper had fed them, you gave them little bowls of water and som salami.
cats can have salami right?
either way they loved it.
you figured out that they were both females, still not knowing what to name them.
you just called them ‘black cat’ and ‘the other one’
it’s a temporary arrangement, since you didn’t want them to be nameless forever.
you heard the door click open and you curse to yourself and you place the cats back in the bathtub, leaving the bathroom and slamming the door shut, making marc give you a weird look as the suit disappears from his body.
“what-“
“oh hey you’re back” you interrupt him and he raises an eyebrow.
“what’s in there?” he asks like he already knows what’s going on.
“nothing” you say too quickly and something hits the door, making it rattle from the other side.
you make a face, and marc walks towards you slowly. “tell me- did you bring home another animal?”
you shake your head. “she’s telling the truth” steven observed that you didn’t do your ‘tell’, since he would know if you were lying.
“..i brought home two” you mumble, marc sighing.
“open the door”
you make another face and open it, the two kittens rushing out to rub on marc’s legs.
“where did you even-“
“casper called me. his dad hates cats and there’s nobody to take care of them” you tell him, fiddling with your sleeve.
marc sighs and you can sense a switch, jake now slowly crouching down to pet the cats.
you stand there confused and crouch down as well, watching as the cats push each other to get more pets.
“can we keep them?” you ask and jake chuckles, looking to you.
“marc is shaking his head in the doorknob” he points it out and you groan.
“so that means yes” he says and you perk up.
“really?!” you exclaim and jake nods.
“you name one then” you suggest and jake tilts his head at the kittens, and ends up gently picking up the black one.
“this gato is…” he trails off, him and the cat having a staring contest. “luna”
the cat meows happily and jake smiles at it.
marc was watching the whole thing with wide eyes. he’d never since he met jake see him so soft for someone that isn’t you. who knew it would be for a cat?
“and the other?” steven starts. “what’s her name?”
“uhmmm..” you trail off.
“i have no idea”
you look behind jake, seeing movement and see harrow again, but this time only a flash, until what looked like an alligator appeared before leaving again.
you mistakenly let out a gasp, making jake look to you curiously. "are you okay, princesa?" he asks and you nod slowly, both of you standing up to guide the kittens to the kitchen.
~~~
after the calico glaring at you and everyone for suggesting ‘dumb’ names, you thought back to the nightmare while the kittens slept on the couch next to each other, you and steven on the floor.
“..steven?” you call out quietly and he hums looking to you.
“i uh.. had this weird dream last night” you start, steven looking at you with worry.
“be honest but do you think i’m.. crazy? as in padded room and straight jacket type of crazy?” you clarify and all three guys look at you wide eyed.
“oh heavens no!” steven exclaims.
“okay- and would you ever keep me somewhere against my will?“
“no” they all say in unison and nod.
“just had to make sure” you mumble, steven carefully reaching a hand out and wrapping it around your shoulder, pulling you into his side.
“darling, you aren’t crazy” steven starts. “if you were, then we’d be insane” he jokes and you chuckle.
“three of us sharing a body” he begins again. “now that’s crazy” he chuckles with you.
“we love you but we would never keep you anywhere against your will either” marc says and you smile.
“thank you guys”
“it’s no problem, kid. we just want to make sure you’re comfortable” marc tells you and you smile again.
“i’m lucky to have you guys”
“damn right” jake mumbles and you make a face at his reflection in the coffee table in front of you.
you didn’t utter another word until you fell asleep again on steven, since it was late.
earlier you and the guys spent a lot of time getting the house ready for the kittens, and didn’t realize how late it was until you all sat down.
it was late already again, and your boys made sure they stayed up to chase away any other nightmares that dared to plague your mind.
they eventually did retire from that, opting to just let you sleep on them while they dozed off.
not a single dream entered your mind that night.
and jake was right, you are damn lucky.
lucky to have them.
oh and don’t forget the cats.
yep.
then too.
but mostly your boys, marc, steven, and jake.
no cat could compare to your grumpy dads, nothing could.
it was just your dads and you.
~~~

Spider-Man Read-Through 057: Dazzler + Black Cat Always Lands On Her Feet (ASM 203-206)
MASTERPOST
Hey, today we're finishing up Marv Wolfman's run! I'll give my thoughts at the end.
There was supposed to be some Spectacular issues before this post, but I wanted to get on with it, so here we are.
Tumblr media
Really cool cover, by the way.
Spidey thinks this lady's chased by Will O' The Wisps, but she faints when he rescues her. When she wakes up, she doesn't seem to know that name...
Tumblr media
I don't know anything about Dazzler (except... she's a X-Men), but she seems really cool and original. She also gets away from him, good for her!
Tumblr media
YES. THIS IS ALL I'M ASKING. Peter interacting with his friends half-dressed! I'm a simply guy.
Betty and Peter were never a thing recently though. Like, can we really say they "broke up" when... they... weren't together? They had a vague fling but that's it. And they're going to see Star Trek, that's nice!!! I'm almost at the ending of DS9 season 3. Haven't watched the other shows, and I'm very slow, but still, I enjoy it.
Meanwhile, Dazzler gets hit by her mysterious enemy... the Lightmaster! Back from SSM. OoOoOh, I'm scared.
The basic thing is, he needs light, and she produces light. It was only a matter of time! Their interactions blow up the nearby cinema, and Peter quickly becomes Spidey once again.
Tumblr media
The fight is fun!
Tumblr media
Well that sucks for her, because her power is really cool. I love that she gets energy from concerts.
Spidey saves Dazzler, but she's still hell-bent on eliminating him!
Tumblr media
Nice panel!
He escapes her by webbing her eyes. A classic!
Tumblr media
Oh I'm sure he'll get to a bottom alright.
We get a quick update on Aunt May: she's not dead, and she's even getting better! Crap.
Spidey surmises that Dazzler got possessed by the Lightmaster, but he's a dumbass.
Tumblr media
He eventually saves her with that big machine, and when Dazzler asks how she can repay him, he says they'll figure something out.
Let's hope it's a concert ticket he's asking for. In the comments, people were quick to notice the innuendo (the line coupled with their immediate physical intimacy certainly implies *things*.)
Now, onto Black Cat's return in 204!
Our story starts with Black Cat, apparently alive (who doubted that?) and taking pictures of our favorite wall-crawler. Then she gets in a museum to steal a cute statue of a couple, but she's interrupted.
Tumblr media
I love those kisses, it's ridiculous, but lovely. And that cat shadow!
Spidey arrives too, and the cat shadow gimmick continues!
Tumblr media
I love it!
She escapes, and Peter ponders about how attractive she is. I'm ready for this couple! I'm ready!!!! Curious to see how it goes!
At the Bugle, Robbie's accepted to lead the newspaper in place of Jameson. He's become a changed man! Very irascible.
BUT WHO DO WE SEE AGAIN?!
Tumblr media
RANDY!!!!! MY BOY!!!!! I MISSED YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Meanwhile, at Felicia's place...
Tumblr media
Oh, I love this. It's so silly, but so good!
At the Globe, Barney tries to push Peter and April closer. I'm not against April being less bitchy.
Later...
Tumblr media
Felicia's not being very slick there, but it's comics, so whatever. That left panel of Peter changing, though? Very erotic.
I'm glad to see Flash and Sha Shan again... I don't remember Cissy, maybe she's in Spectacular. Sounds inconsequential either way. But this new date, Dawn Starr... Very 80s haircut right there. Not sure I'm a fan, BUT she immediately says she's into Peter, so you know.
Oh, but it gets better! She's a science major (another one!) and... she's one of Peter's students! I'm into that, I like the drama. Peter's not of the same mind, though. He's already got enough drama as is!
By the way, I'm not completely fond of this issue's colors... We'll see how it goes...
At the Guggenheim museum, Spidey and Black Cat have another fight.
Tumblr media
Oh, she's a funny one for sure. The writing's becoming more horny, and I'm also here for it.
Once again, the Black Cat gets away, but with the statue this time! Oh, and we get news on Jonah! He's amnesiac now. "Jonas Harrow" says he's gonna help him, but he's got those terrifyingly goofy glasses that indicate he's not a nice guy.
Black Cat steals another thing (and is quite disappointed that she saw no resistance from the folks there), and we get a promise that the next issue will have a surprise ending. A kiss, a kiss!!!!
Tumblr media
YES.
Marv Wolman's run is officially finished at this point! David Michelinie's a guest writer for 205, but his run will occur about five years later. Let's see how he fares here.
Tumblr media
That's a really beautiful panel.
At Peter's workplace (the university!), he finds Dawn...
Tumblr media
We got a kiss! I didn't expect him to go down that line, though. But I'm here for the messiness. I presume it won't last long...
Peter thinks things are looking up on him, but that's not exactly a sentiment I share.
Spidey and Black Cat have a little fight again, and she gets away again.
Later, at the Daily Globe, Peter meets Pamela Dean, society editor and possible new love interest? What is going on here?
Did Peter breaking up with MJ finally open his dating prospects?
There's a solid theme of love going around in these issues. Black Cat targets art about love, Pamela Dean wants to write a story about an artist who does romantic and erotic art... This feels like a new era.
Peter's convinced Black Cat's building a shrine to her father with those thieveries, and I think he's completely wrong about that. The likely actual person she loves is... well, Spider-Man, of course.
Tumblr media
Love these panels.
At his office, Peter finds an intruder... and our dear miss Dawn is welcomed by none other than Spidey!
Tumblr media
.
.
.
Iran? What the heck, Peter.
Tumblr media
Oh, Peter... (He looks so cute when he's angsty.)

Hey, does anyone know if this area really exists? I'm curious. Ross Andru drew real buildings, so...
So Felicia's exchanging the art she stole for the Helen Epistle, a love letter to Paris from Helen of Troy.
Just kidding! She's actually stealing that one too.
Meanwhile, Peter has an appointment with Bellflower, the erotic art collector that Felicia just threatened. He seems busy, and Peter smells the ruse.
Tumblr media
Do you know what else is jangling?
Anyway. BC and Spidey have another confrontation, BC escapes, but Spidey tracks her and is completely surprised to see he was wrong about Felicia's daddy issues.
Tumblr media
I love her expresssion on the left!
Tumblr media
... You know what, that's actually a solid ending, because at first, Peter didn't care about his responsibility (the Dawn kiss), but then he got the backlash from that (disappointment and betrayal), so here, he chose to do the right thing. That's good.
206 time! Roger Stern is here. He'll stay for a while. I've seen people say to skip the Wein and Wolfman issues, so I'm curious to see what Stern brought to the game.
Turns out Jonas Harrow, who also created Hammerhead, the Kangaroo and Will O' The Wisps in the first place, is the one who's been making Jonas mad. He used rays or something on Jonah's office, which explains why Robbie was irritated last issue!
I'm sure Jonah will be back to his old self anyway... but I kinda like how it ties up neatly this background arc that has been running for like, ten issues at this point. Neat! Didn't expect it either.
At the Bugle, Robbie and Marla discuss what to do regarding Jonah's disappearance, but Jonas Harrow doesn't like this and turns up his rays. They get in a fight, and when Peter intervenes, he pushes them away rather violently.
Tumblr media
Ew.
The rays cause everyone to be angry, but Peter activates the fire alarm to make them evacuate the building. Smart!
He eventually finds and breaks the rays emitting gadget, and then Harrow dares him to fight him. When he sees Spidey, Jameson gets his memory back. Much more effective than Harrow's tentative treatment!
Tumblr media
I love the middle panel, but this is also why I cannot bring myself to care about Jonas: he sucks.
So... Marv Wolfman. Definitely an improvement on Len Wein if you consider the entirety of their runs, as it's more consistently solid.
I did love the graduation issues, the relationship drama, but the May arc was annoying, although I can appreciate the ambition. I think my problem lies moreso with the corresponding Spectacular issues, but it wasn't Wolfman, so...
I just feel like Wolman's cast isn't coherent the way Stan Lee and Gerry Conway's were. Still, there was an attempt to emulate Lee and Ditko's style at some point. Jameson was faaaar too involved in all of that to my liking, but it was a bit original at least, compared to previous times. Some characters acted out of character too (Ned and Harry)...
It's not a perfect run, and I don't gel well with Wolfman, but it was alright. Good, even.
Welcome, Mister O'Neil. Show me what you've got!

ok ok ok just for fun: if i were to reboot spider-man into the modern era. not a remix, just adapting the 60s cast and setting into a modern one.
A lot stays the same! Uncle Ben, Parker financial anxiety. Instead of Spider-Man trying to get famous and on TV, Peter at first chases fame online, all over Youtube doing stunts and showing off before transitioning into heroics. Mary Jane cameos here: she’s a pretty well known TikTok influencer, so we get an early cameo of her reacting to one of his videos. This leads to JJ’s original distaste for Spider-Man, and his original bad reputation: he’s considered a glory hound, he’s only stopping criminals for the views.
Peter is still the slightly standoffish social outcast/nerd. He was honestly a bit of a jerk in his early comics, kind of resentful and feeling like he deserved better. In the reboot, he thinks he’s better and smarter than his peers. He thinks Flash and Liz are vapid showoffs and he’s smarter. Flash is still a bullying jerk, but Peter also openly thinks he’s better. Similar dynamic to/with Johnny Storm, and as Peter gets over himself a little and becomes more heroic, both relationships soften a bit.
College! Harry tends to be adapted as really “cool” and I disagree. Harry is a loser. He is a rich trust fund loser. He looks like he has it all and is super privileged, but he’s actually really cripplingly shy and anxious and awkward. He and Peter hit it off over nerd crap, and Harry opens up to him, leading to their friendship.
Gwen is really cold and standoffish at first. She’s sort of “perfect,” comes off as a bit haughty and better than. But she and Harry are old friends and run in similar “rich and influential” circles, and her genuine warmth and friendship with Harry is an early sign she’s a nice person; she warms to Peter through him. She comes off as aloof because her dad is chief of police and she’s often getting dragged into the politics and blame that comes from “my dad is THE number one cop in New York,” and she loves her dad even if she maybe has more complicated feelings about his job and influence. She’s tired of having to live with all the assumptions that come with it and wants her own life. She and Peter can bond over having high expectations for themselves and wanting more out of life, despite not knowing quite what “more” is. Gwen has big plans and is very ambitious.
Mary Jane is a huge influencer; online she’s known only as MJ, so when May starts talking about setting Peter up with “Mary Jane” he’s like lol no. He’s heard of her from his glory seeking internet fame days and they even had a brief social media interaction or two, so he’s smitten when they do meet… only to quickly decide she’s too shallow and fame obsessed and silly — she wants to turn her social media savvy into being an actress, imagine! He still likes her as a friend and they get along great, but he’s like yeah, not dating her.
MJ for her part is much more ambivilant to Spidey than she acts online, because… she knows he’s Peter. And, as in the comics, she is not sure what to think of someone who acts so differently in a mask than unmasked. Which part is the act? Slowly she realizes that there is no act and it’s all Peter. She’s highly ambitious but because she feels like all she has to offer are her looks; she likes the adulation that comes of influencing but is so driven because she’s sure it’ll end and wants to get as much as she can before it does. She’s driven by her insecurities.
Gwen dies, Mary Jane and Peter start dating, Harry has his series of breakdowns and marries Liz. Peter and MJ have a courthouse wedding, and around the time the Clone Saga happened… instead, we introduce Miles. (Sorry, Ben). Now instead of Peter retiring and being replaced by his clone, he meets and is initially wary of Miles — after all, no one but him and only him can take care of New York (due to Peter’s immense guilt/responsibility complex). But slowly Miles and Peter bond, and Peter becomes more comfortable with sharing his responsibilities and being a mentor instead of his usual loner self.
Mary Jane does transition to actress in a similar arc as the comics: she tries Hollywood, but realizes she’s only a stunt cast, and moves to off-off-broadway and finds real success and pleasure in smaller, better shows. She is the breadwinner of the home, and still maintains some social media but mostly steps back. Not because she doesn’t still like it, but just because she doesn’t need the constant validation to prove she’s not worthless anymore.
Mayday is NOT kidnapped, and Peter’s new status-quo as a father allows him to step back and let Miles have more of the spotlight, while still remaining an active character/hero. Also because I really like her, Peter and Mary Jane’s next child is Annie. IDK, Peter really does just come off as a Girl Dad, yanno?

hey hey hey I heard you like spider man. I don't know much about Spiderman but I would LOVE to hear about it if you want to share!! only if you feel like it of course.
Oh my goodness
YES I would love to talk about him
I honestly don't even know where to start cuz my head is buzzing with all the spiderman things I've learned over the years.
oki oki oki
My favorite things are the fun little headcanons such as, spiders do not like mint so in turn Peter would've adopted this silly little trait.
Choosing a favorite spiderman is so difficult for me because they're all so precious. For the live-action movies, I'd pick Tom Holland only because his movies dragged me into it and I've always been a fan of Tom Holland.
For the animated series, The Spectacular Spider-Man. The theme song is amazing and also the animation style just speaks to me.
and the MILES MORALES man he's just such amazing. I could talk about Spiderman into the Spiderverse for AGES.
Jake Johnson voicing Peter B Parker was just, muah, chef's kiss. He just makes sense for that character. Spider-Man Noir being in that movie added YEARS to my life. Oh and don't even get me started on the animation for that movie. THE SOUNDTRACK TOO
The point is I have so much to talk about when it comes to this Spidey Boy and I'm always learning more about his universe(s). As you can probably guess I'm super excited about the new Miles Morales movie.
(I also have the miles morales video game which is another thing I could talk about for a long time)
The post is already super long so I'm gonna cut it off here but if there's anything else Spiderman related or any show really, I'd love to talk.

My pronouns are he/they, I'm an intj (5w6 Sanguine-Melancholic), Indigenous aus and Irish :) demi + biromantic (mostly mlm leaning) ♋♏♓I mostly post multifandom content, waffle about what's on my brain and support creators and mutuals in the ways that I can.

Characters I would say I relate to the most are definitely Cicero and Miguel though. Like in a gothic mirror being held up to me kinda way.
You may see the name 'todd' (@toddwest69) pop up a lot in my posts, he's my best friend. Characters I often compare him to are: Peter B Parker, The Spot, Majima, Deadpool & Loki. He's an intp but mf acts like an entp. His big 3 are ♏♓♌.
Some of my many interests that you can expect to see me posting about include: Skyrim (and tes in general), Spider-Man, both marvel and DC, the dark crystal, goth stuff, memes, video games (red dead redemption, Minecraft, ESO and we happy few are the few of MANY), psychology, MBTI, astrology(mainly for the fun of it I don't really deeply believe in it), artists I love, comics, literature I enjoy, the occasional politics, trans stuff aaannddd music stuff because I love music.

I try to keep my page as safe for all ages as I possibly can but I am prone to spouting my mind freely without thinking on here, I do also try to use trigger warnings/ warnings in general when I'm venting about topics or writing about things that may be traumatic or inappropriate for some age groups.
Things I believe in/support before you hit follow: Land back, BLM, the freeing of Palestine, Ukraine and the congo (+ any other countries being oppressed), Trans and LGBTQ+ rights, Intersectional feminism, Equity, general leftism although I'm not overboard about it, healthy masculinity, the idea that you can do what you want when you want as long as it isn't actually harming anyone and makes you happy.
I hope you enjoy my page and find some semblance of entertainment from it.

The thing of it is that the only Spider-man I've really liked so much so much is the MCU version. And I only write and read when I have a pairing, when I'm shipping, and I basically only want to smush Michelle Jones-Watson and Peter Parker's faces together, in the MCU. Literally the only other Spidey iteration I've watched/read loved is Spiderverse and I don't ship anything enough in those awesone movies for me to be fannish.
So I generally find things from the other Spidey canons just aren't for me. Some people love beans and toast, or Empire State U or famous model MJ, some people (me) not into it at all (I've read and enjoyed, of course! But not my preference.)
In general, I have found, the community of fans who love MCU Peter aren't a lot of Peter mcu MJ shippers. And there aren't a lot of fans I've found who are yay petermj and mean yay! mcu Peter and shipping Michelle Jones. It's usually a kind of all media types blend of canons, something fandom does really well but, again, it's not the thing that I love.
The easiest tag to indicate the small pond I like to splash around in is spideychelle. What the tag has always meant to me is that here be MCU. In the MCU, the canon I am writing in, canon MJ is black and named Michelle. If I'm looking for a story where it's MCU, based in MCU, with the only MJ I want to read about from all the canon iterations, I generally look for spideychelle. Also, if that's not what you like, then hopefully me tagging spideychelle makes it clear you shouldn't waste your time on my silly stories you probably won't like. Here there won't be comics references or canon from other iterations of Spider-man!
Which is what tags are for, I think. This is the canon I'm playing in, this is where I'm having fun! If this is a playground you also like come on in, if it's not I don't want to waste your time!

oh my goddd you brought up MCU canonicity >:]
I have a categorized journal spread on the TSS+Peacemaker character's opinions of the various MCU titles/characters.
Most notable on this list though,
I personally believe Chris would avoid any marvel content surrounding Captain America, because the "All True American Man" visage is a bit too much for him. Though once he finds out that it isn't the same patriotism that he grew up around, he'd finally give it the time of day.
He also fell in love with Tony Stark the moment he threw up the peace sign. He claims its because he "knows how to rock out and bang chicks", he also claims you didn't see him crying during Iron Man 3. (the concept of giving up the violent thing keeping you afloat, just for the person you love? that shit hit hard for him, man)
-🍃
HOW FUN IS THINKING ABOUT THE MCU EXISTING IN PEACEMAKER/DCEU? its such a wig out but so much fun. i actually sent liz (@vigilvntes) a HC i have about adrian & marvel a while ago (under anon cause i was shy, it was me surprise) and now i gotta put it here cause the more i think about it the more i love it.
Tumblr media
adrian + marvel...
so in my head, if marvel/MCU existed in the DCEU, adrian would have been a HUGE raimi!spiderman fan/tobey!peter parker kinnie.
the raimi trilogy came out when adrian would have been 11, 13 and 16 sequentially. they were made for kids like adrian.
because adrian was the weird kid, and everyone in his life had no trouble reminding him of such.
but along came peter parker, who was also the weird kid.
just as nerdy, just as awkward, and just as socially inept as adrian, hell he even wore glasses too!
and yet, peter parker was also spiderman - the masked vigilante. (and you cant tell me that isn't where adrian got the name from).
he would have spent all of his time playing spiderman by himself - in the backyard, in the playground, in his room.
much to his mother's horror, adrian would have made a spidey-suit out of her favourite robe, and practiced over and over and over again until he could nail a backflip, just like spiderman does.
adrian never quite figured out the webs though, but he absolutely tried to swing by spraying a can of silly string at a tree branch, jumping, and falling on his ass.
if adrian asked extra nicely, maybe gut would've played along with him for a bit, rolling his eyes as adrian crudely dressed him up as Doc Ock, with swimming goggle glasses and a pair of barbecue tongs in each hand.
spider man 3 came out in 2007, when adrian would've been 16. i know he was a late bloomer, but watching spiderman taking a walk on the dark side at age 16? it absolutely would have been the catalyst for adrian's emo phase.
he totally would have done the dance too, walking to school alone with his headphones on dressed in all black, thrusting his hips and doing the hustle the entire way to school and back for months.
and, to state the obvious, it would've been one of the main reasons adrian became vigilante in the first place. if peter parker, the bespectacled dork, the school nerd, the boy next door, the cool-kids reject, could put on a mask and save the world? then dammit, so could Adrian Chase.

The reader dressing up as Regina George with the bunny costume for a halloween party, guys hitting on her, and Peter gets jealous and insecure, but he doesn't wanna upset her cause he loved how confident you looked in your costume 🥺
I made this college!peter bc I just imagine this as a frat party🤧
When you told peter you went out for Halloween, he didn’t know how much out. For peter, halloween use to be trick or treating as a kid and then in his teen years horror movies and games with Ned. Now he was in college, with the girl of his dreams, dressing up for Halloween.
“Hey babe? I think I’m just gonna leave the webshooters here, it might be too much—“ he was going as himself, it was cheap and would make him have the best spidey outfit there since it was the original. But before he could finish you walk out in the small bunny suit, ears and all.
“I’m Regina George!” You throw your hands up and he almost immediately regrets the skin tight suit.
“Uh...isn’t Regina like blonde and pink...and not a playboy bunny?” He clears his throat and your kiss his cheek.
“From that one halloween scene silly! Betty is going as Karen and MJ is going as cady.” You smile. He loved it, loved it more than anything. But would quickly feel like he was the insecure one when at the party.
At the party boys left and right hit on you, even a few girls tried to hit on you but the same line left your mouth “I have a boyfriend” but almost all asked where he was. To peter, he felt more invisible tonight than he did before.
“Petey? Are you having fun?” You find him on the side with a beer in his hand. The drink doing nothing but at least he could hope.
“I’m fine it’s just...you go have fun actually it’s nothing.” He shakes his head and you sit down and pull him down with you.
“No, it’s not nothing. What’s wrong?” You ask.
“It’s just...I love your costume, I do. You are absolutely stunning and I-I don’t know how I’m so lucky-you look beautiful, I love it—“ he rambles, peter did that when he was nervous.
“It’s a lot, I’m sorry.” You told him and he shook his head.
“No! No! I love it! I like you in it, the people...it’s them. Nothing against you. Did you know it’s a total of 10 men who’ve tried to hit on you? 10!” He almost shouts and you lean over to catch his lips. Your glossy lips mesh with his as you two kiss on the floor of the party.
“And each time I told them I had a boyfriend, also don’t think I’m not counting the girl who it on you. You’re my spidey.” You tease and he lets his hand rub up and down your arm.
The rest of the party peter kept you on his arms. To them, he was just nerdy peter dressed up as the masked hero but you only laughed wishing they’d known. Only having your heart set on the spiderman in and outside of this party.

Spider-Man Read-Through BONUS: Marvel Team-Up 1 (#1-35)
So in my hurry to get through years I've already read, I completely dismissed Marvel Team-Up (1972), Spidey's first concurrent magazine, as something that wasn't worth reading. I may have been wrong, and I need to procrastinate, so here's a quick post where I skim through the issues I missed until now and show anything I find neat.
Tumblr media
MASTERPOST
I actually expected the issues to be 100% Spidey and 0% Peter, but...
#1
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Spidey_is_bisexual.jpeg
Tumblr media
Johnny has a... particular outfit.
Tumblr media
That's actually nice!
#2
Tumblr media
Great composition.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
My favorite kind of plot. Not the moeans, although that too, but "i know you're in there".
#3 features Morbius, and I'm sorry because Dracula is still much more interesting than Morbius to me. Oh well. The Human Torch interrupts one of Peter's classes, that's fun at least!
#4:
Tumblr media
Ooooh I immediately recognize those Gil Kane lips...
Tumblr media Tumblr media
That's a great scene, I miss that dynamic. I wish we saw more of Harry and Peter's cohabitation.
The Bugle publishes that Peter kidnapped a scientist, so Charles Xavier's on it! I'm really happy I listened to a bunch of episodes of that X-Men podcast because I'm absolutely not lost. It feels like I know these characters so well, hahaha.
Tumblr media
...I will pretend this never happened and he kissed Scott instead, and consensually so. Yeah. That's a fun issue though, with the X-Men trying to save Spidey's life.
#5: Spidey gets a new roommate.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Conway didn't have quite the handle on how to write Harry, but that's fine.
The issue features the Puppet Master, and I'm pretty sure I read a recent issue with him and the Fantastic Four.
#6 features the gayest ad I've ever seen.
Tumblr media
#7 features interesting stuff.
Tumblr media
Notably, Peter soon reveals his secret identity to Thor! And we also see The Watcher as a cameo, nice.
In #8, the Cat (who later becomes Tigra) and Spider-Man team-up against "the Man-Killer", aka Katrina Luisia van Horn. Um.
This issue is alright at least, but it's clear what she's supposed to represent, and I found her quite sympathetic.
9 time! Peter's fagged out, which means, he's gay.
Tumblr media
In 10, Peter drinks tea with Johnny.
Tumblr media
#11 keeps the time travel plot going. (18)
In #12, Peter wants to get over Gwen's death. We also learn he loves cheeseburger and milk.
In #13, Peter's still not fine.
Tumblr media
#14 is about fighting Namor.
#15 features Ghost Rider and the Orb (great designs!) and Peter and MJ on a date.
Tumblr media
Like this is great.
In #16, Peter mentions he goes so rarely to the movies he wouldn't be able to differentiate Clint Eastwood from Linda Lovelace, who's a porn actress. Silly writers! Now I want to meta about that tidbit, but I don't have the time. (Note to self: watch Linda Lovelace flicks)
Tumblr media
This is actually fascinating.
#17 features Reed Richards. #18 doesn't feature Spidey. In #19 and #20, Spidey's back to the Savage Land... However, MJ inquires about Pete's disappearance! And she features prominently.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
#21 features Dr Strange! And #22 Hawkeye! And #23 Iceman and the Human Torch! I briefly discussed that one here, as it's linked to the incredible Giant-Size Spider-Man #1. In #24, there voodoo and buff men.
#25 features Daredevil though! They do the basic and overdone thing of "two heroes fighting for no good reason when they could just talk, and then they fight together". #26 features the Torch and Thor!
In #27, we see the Chameleon!
Tumblr media
He's just like me for real.
#28 features another one of Pete's professors. See, that's the worldbuilding I'm after!
In #29, Iron Man pays us a visit.
Tumblr media
Oh no, he's hot.
In #30, Gloria Grant (Peter's acquaintance who lives in the same building) is here. We learn about Gloria's family, and she contacts Sam Wilson, who's a friend of a friend. I'm glad to finally see a bit of her life, even if it doesn't last.
#31 features Iron Fist. He has fun with Spidey, then it ends with Peter recording everything that happens to not forget... but he forgets. Hmm, wonder if that will come back later. #32 features the Fantastic Four. #33 features Night Hawk. #34 features Valkyrie! And, finally, #35 features... not Spider-Man. Alright, we're done! I'm not sad that I skipped all of that earlier, it's not really my thing, but I'm glad I skimmed through all that, there was some neat stuff.
See you next time, dear readers!

❥ 𝒚𝒐𝒖 𝒖𝒏𝒄𝒖𝒍𝒕𝒖𝒓𝒆𝒅 𝒔𝒘𝒊𝒏𝒆! — p.p
summary: you try to culture peter with one of your favorite songs he’s never heard of before.
paring: peter parker x reader
warning: bad writing & typos
word count: 1k+
author’s note: this was supposed to be a blurb... let’s hope this imagine doesn’t flop as bad as my first one :)
you dramatically gasped as if it was the end of the world, to you it almost was. ❝i am appalled i can’t believe you have never listened to empire state of mind! i’m disappointed in you petey.❞ sure you were overreacting in peter’s eyes and most likely everyone else in the world but you didn’t care.
peter was honestly confused he’s never seen you more upset. ❝is it that big of a deal?❞
you nodded, ❝yes! yes it is peter. that song was a cultural reset and we live in new york!❞ you attempted to throw a pillow at his face. damn you hated his spidey sense sometimes.
peter was trying to win this silly argument between the two of you. ❝y/n/n. we live in queens...❞
your eyebrows furrowed, ❝WE LIVE IN THE STATE OF NEW YORK IT’S THE SAME DAMN THING!❞ you yelled as if you had won this childish argument but he had more to say.
peter knew he wasn’t getting out of this conversation. he found it cute that you cared so much over a small thing but also found it confusing. sure he was a genius but definitely not one when it came to reading girls well in his case his girlfriend. ❝I’M SORRY I NEVER HEARD OF THAT SONG IS IT THAT BAD?!❞
❝yes, i can’t date someone who is an uncultured swine.❞ you pointed at your phone that laid next to peter charging on your bed.
peter furrowed his eyebrows, ❝wait? did you just quote toy story?❞
it took a second to register what peter had said to you because you forgot where you had hear that phrase from. ❝yes... in fact i did❞ peter noticed the hesitation in your voice and smiled. ❝ha! you didn’t know it was from toy story!❞
❝did too! that’s not even the point!❞ you argued. peter smirked he still didn’t believe you.
you rolled your eyes. ❝my phone! you need to listen to empire state of mind!❞ he immediately grabbed your phone and nicely handed it to you. you kissed his cheek and thanked him.
❝my love i’m about to culture you with an iconic and beautiful song know as empire state of mind. peter... if you don’t like this song my heart will be broken.❞ you only meant that last sentence partly. of course you would still date him you loved him too much. not to mention it would be stupid to break up over a song he didn’t like.
peter’s eyes widened as if saw a ghost and you just laughed. ❝i didn’t mean that peter don’t worry❞ quickly pecking his lips.
peter sighed in relief and you laughed once more because he thought you really meant the words that came out of your mouth. you opened spotify and opened your ❛nostalgic❜ playlist. you got up to turn off your lights and laid on your bed and motioned him to do the same.
peter laid next to you and looked up to see glowing stars spread across your ceiling like the ones he had when he was seven. he smiled and let out a small laugh. you faced him and pouted, ❝don’t make fun of my glowing stars! you’re just mad cause you don’t have yours anymore.❞
peter turned to you and smiled making you smile back. god he loved your smile. ❝what are we doing laying on your bed with your lights off?❞
you smirked and pressed play. ❝just listen...❞ peter just replied with a simple okay with a confused look on his face.
you rolled your eyes turning to look at the ceiling followed by peter doing the same. ❝petey just shut up and vibe with me.❞
when the song finished both of you turned your heads to face each other. you softly spoke keeping the moment calm and loving. ❝what did you think?❞
❝it was perfect.❞ peter whispered implying the song and the girl that laid beside him. you smiled while ruffling his messy curls. ❝really?❞
peter nodded, ❝yes really-❞ before peter could finish his sentence you crashed your lips to his with your other 2000s songs playing in the background.
making out with your boyfriend with music in the background you would think soft love songs would be more romantic but to you this is the most romantic and intimate moment you have ever shared. you hummed into peter’s lips slightly moving your leg over his hips to straddle him.
peter smiled, ❝hm? what?❞ he grabbed you by the hips so you could balance yourself on his waist.
you bent down hovering your lips over his with your noses lightly touching. ❝i’m trying to get comfortable you dork.❞ you cupped his face leaving chaste kisses all over his face then his lips. peter kept his hands on your waist leaning in to continue the kiss. your hands went to his hair gently massaging his soft curls.
peter abruptly stopped the kiss when you smiled and was starting to laugh loudly. ❝what’s wrong?!❞ you confused peter more and more tonight.
❝i love this fucking song!❞ you screamed scaring peter a bit. you cup his face once more pressing a small kiss on his lips. ❝awh did i scary you baby?❞
peter rolled his eyes, ❝just shut up and kiss me.❞ you smirked and nodded your head tickling peter’s face with your hair. ❝you’re so mean y/n!❞ peter pretended to sound offended which just made you laugh. he moved your hair out of his face and was trying to keep it out of his mouth. you smiled you didn’t know why you found peter trying to move your hair out of his face adorable. you grabbed your elastic from your wrist and put your hair up in a low pony tail. then placed you hands around his neck connecting your lips to peter’s.
peter stopped before you could deepen this kiss. you crossed your arms and pouted like a child. ❝peter! why did you stop?!❞
before you could interject peter replied. ❝now it’s time for me to culture you!❞
❝peter noooo!❞ you knew what he was going to say and whined. you heard him mumble something under his breath but couldn’t understand what he said.
peter frowned, ❝why not bubs?!❞ he knew she had nothing to say and sighed. ❝fine peter i’ll watch star wars... just because i love you.❞ peter grabbed your waist and pulled you in with a big smile on his face.
❝just not right now...❞ you whispered caressing his cheek with your thumb.
❝why not-❞ peter couldn’t even finish his sentence because you crashed your lips into his.
❝because of this.❞ you mumbled against his lips continuing to kiss peter.

Dating Peter Parker would include...
Tumblr media
I’m sorry I’m not so active lately. I got the requests about Tony (I think there are four of them? two from accounts and two from anon)
-          Peter Parker is a dork.
-          Let’s start saying that.
-          He had always had a crush on you. The beautiful girl in his class, with who he had talked with a few times because a project. Besides, you lived close to him, in the apartment block on the other side of the street. So you sometimes saw each other on the street, and made small conversation.
-          The thing is, he didn’t ask you out. He hadn’t thought he had any chances with you, so he just dropped it and cried to Ned and May about it.
-          But then, a highschool dance for valentine’s day came around.
-          He wasn’t going to go, let’s be real; he didn’t have a date, Ned was going with Betty and Flash had been mocking him for the entire week.
-          Sad boy was sitting at the end of the class, doodling on his notebook, when you approached him.
-          It made his day that you talked to him; so when you asked if he wanted to go with you to the dance, he just broke.
-          You took that as a bad sign, so you retracted and told him it was okay if he had someone.
-          Peter didn’t get to say yes because he just froze and nodded to everything you said, so you left.
-          That day Peter was as pale as ever. He spent the lunch time sitting on the same chair, looking ahead and thinking about nothing. He went home, told May about it and she actually smacked him with the newspaper.
-          She made him walk to your apartment and correct himself.
-          That was how he found himself talking to you through the window, explaining himself while both of you cried; you for sadness, and he for frustration.
-          Finally, you went the dance together and the rest is history.
-          Now.
-          NOW.
-          Dating Peter Parker is a rollercoaster.
-          One moment you’re okay, taking a nap together while playing Wii, and the next you’re screaming because you throw a blue shell at him.
-          He’s all about giving you unexpected roses, gifts or planning some weird dates that include random trips, horrible food and a lot of spiderman. And about starting arguments and fights over insecurities, stupid decisions and videogames.
-          He loves kisses. And I’m not talking about ‘good-morning’ kiss, ‘night’ kiss or ‘see you later’. Not even about random kisses in the cheek or quick pecks on the nose when he passes by.
-          No.
-          Peter has the necessity of trying every available cute kiss on the market. From the first moment, you learn that he loves that type of kisses. The spidey kiss is not enough.
-          For example, he will fight you in trying the lady and the tramp kiss while eating pasta in an Italian restaurant. Everyone looks at you weird, but he’ll be blushing and giggling for the whole dinner and it’s worthy.
-          It’s hard to admit, but he knows every Disney lyric and choreography and sings along with the film once he is comfortable enough with you.
-          Honestly, he’s a kid.
-          He shows it when, in autumn, he takes you to walk around the park only to find the most hidden place, make a pile of leaves on the ground and throw yourself over it. He loves spending the time with you, laying there and watching the people walk while imagine their lives.
-          Also, movie marathons with fortes every Saturday, that end up in a pillow fight and with no clothes in the end.
-          Fun fact: holidays make him riled up.
-          Like, the idea of creating a custom between the two of you, original and unique, keeps him awake at night. He starts planning Halloween one month before the vent.
-          And he’s a freak. On the good side, of course.
-          Peter can spend the whole night awake, you lying by his side sleeping, with the phone illuminating his face as he reads conspiracy theories and unsolved police files on BuzzFeed, only to wake you up when one is too scary or interesting.
-          He has a lot of inside jokes with you, almost all of them too strange for anyone to understand; but you love him that way.
-          His favourite thing to do on a Friday night is to watch soap operas from another county, without subtitles, and make up his own dialogue with you, with a bad accent.
-          Healthy competition, too.
-          Like, bet who can eat more ice-cream without brain-freeze. Or be quiet in a meeting with Tony where he’s asking questions. Talking about Tony, he’s so fed up with Peter and you that he schedule thirty minutes every week to cry about the decision of getting involved.
-          Who can sleep longer, run faster or annoy Mr Harrington the most. Who can keep smiling through a sad movie. Or cry through a happy one.
-          Days with Peter are always something new, you can’t never get bored.
-          There is also a sweet part in him.
-          He can’t sleep without you by his side when you finally make the relationship serious.
-          He has a corner in his room filled with silly selfies or objects that mean something to you.
-          There is a drawer with pads, make-up, panties, bras, pain-killers for the period, a brush, some hair bands, your favourite perfume and shampoo, and an extra charger for your phone in his wardrobe. That he updates every once in a while with things you might need or want.
-          Every day, he makes his goal to tell you ‘love you’ in a different way. By giving you something, helping you to study, learning something new for you, or just sticking a paper to your locker.
-          The thing is, Peter Parker is a boy with a mind of a kid who loves stepping on puddles but forced to become a superhero that swings you across NY.
-          And you get to be the lucky person to spend the rest of your life with him.
