"Parker, what are you doing?" Nick couldn't help but scoff a bit as she watched him messing with his phone, as if he was trying to take a video - causing Peter to quickly turn around to face her, before looking around the empty football field area. "How did you know I'd be here?"
"Because it's sunny and we're both weirdos who hide from the world." Nick shrugged off as she sat on the bleacher above him, before giving a cheeky smile when he looked at her with a raised eyebrow, causing him to chuckle with a nod. Then he looked back to his phone, lifting it up a bit. "I was videoing some things a couple weeks ago and half the video won't connect to my laptop."
"Oh, I can help." Nick offered as she leaned forward, but Peter quickly pulled the phone from her reach. "Will that... require you seeing the video?"
Nick's eyebrows pulled together as she tilted her head - the girl in sneakers, jeans, and a maroon tanktop under the lightweight jacket that she had zipped up because they were outside. She also had on a white baseball cap that she had gotten from Natasha on her last birthday, which was supposed to be some whole subtle joke thing because it was from some European brand named 'Daggers', which was across the front.
And when she had found it this morning, it also caused her to try and look for Natasha, after not hearing from her since she left before Tony and Nick headed to the prison where the others had been held - and the last place she knew of where Natasha was, was on some boat considering the burner phone was dropped somewhere in the water. The girl wasn't even sure if it had been a ferry boat or cargo, or some fisherman boat.
Nick obviously had some of her own programs working to find anybody - except Steve, because she was still upset - but she just wanted to make sure they were all okay.
Thankfully though, her friends at school managed to constantly keep her mind off the fact her family was broke apart - and that includes right now, as she couldn't help a curious smile. "Peter, did you film yourself doing something embarrassing?"
"No." Peter quickly said, and when she raised an eyebrow, he realized that it'd probably be better to go with that... other than the fact that it was all the footage from Berlin when he was doing Spider-Man things. "I mean, yeah. Totally. Embarrassing things like... a lot of... tripping."
That earned another confused look from her, "Tripping?"
He opened his mouth to add onto that, but then the two looked up when two more people came over - Harry nudging Ned's arm. "Told you they'd be here."
"What're you guys doing?" Ned asked as he sat next to Nick, and Harry sat next to Peter - so Nick waved a hand towards the boy with his two devices out. "Pete's trying to figure out how to get a video to his laptop without corrupting any footage."
"Oh, I can help with that." Harry took his phone and the laptop before Peter could stop him.
But then they all watched as Harry began typing a few things, before tapping on the phone - then laptop keyboard - which caused Nick and Peter to share a look, with Nick unable to help a smile as she nodded towards the Osborn boy - and Peter shrugged with a light chuckle. As Ned leaned over with a look of awe, as Harry seemed to finish clicking on a couple things - before finally passing both devices back. "Done."
