⚠️ <A/N> I decided to name your roommate Nadia Ahmad!! She seemed like an N name to me. And one of the readers suggested it and I liked it!
-
//She's from Arabic descent, she's super into marvel, and a bit more on the art side and she's an inch shorter than you. She's accomplished like you too and won scholarships for her art.
When you moved in, you two clicked, which is why she has your back.\\ I hope you guys mess with her 🩷
But if you don't then too bad.

——————•
Your apartment
8:25 pm.

"God are we done yet Nadia?"
"I'm almost done!"
You've been lying on your roommates bed for...hours. Shooting webs on her ceiling and trying to make articulate designs. And you hang from the ceiling a couple of times spinning around on the heels of your feet, practicing balancing on a web.
"Ughhhhhh..."

You guys went from sketching possible suit ideas... to her actually creating your new suit. She's way too excited of course, but it's understandable since she's a die hard fan for something that was only possible in comics.
But it also makes you wonder if she's content with her life the way it is now. You reflect back and think if you made a mistake telling her so soon or if she's envious of your new abilities.

"It's not too emo right? I wanna be.. you know."
"A symbol of hope and light!"
"Whatever just finish it.."
You see her shake her head with a laugh.
"Just a heads up though...it's not the best since it's taking me like 7 hours to get the web designs in. Maybe you could wear a crop top or something.. maybe jeans."

"It's fine, Nadia I appreciate it anyway."
She continues sewing and hums happily as she finishes up. You unstick from the ceiling and you watch her stand and hold up the suit.
"Is that spandex?"
"Yep. Put it on! Put it on!"

You slip into them as she turns around putting away the machine and unplugging it.
"It's a little snug..."
But it's not bad looking at all. Not too hero-like but it looks casual enough for now and you smooth any folds in the homemade suit.
(I'll show spidersonas talented artists created at the end!! If not then just imagine what you please)

"Your mask.. Spider-Woman." She lays out the mask for you in the palms of her hand theatrically and you take it with a smile.
"Hey.. Nadia are you sure you're happy being my guy in the chair? You don't feel.. a type of way?"

"...No. Being Spider-Man is too hard of a job for me. I wouldn't ever want to be him.. since uh.." she looks serious for a moment— avoiding eye contact with you.
"Since what..?"

"I'll tell you later but- That spider chose you for a reason. And I'm happy just helping you out. I promise."

You smile.. feeling relief. And you put on the mask, feeling confidence and hear Nadia's words echo in your head.
"That spider chose you."

"We can talk about the tech in the suit later, but for now go test it out. And put on your AirPods!"
"I love you so much right now, thank you!" You hug her and you open her window.. and go up to the rooftops...
—————

You stand on the top of your building and scan the area.
Brooklyn had become the playground for criminals.. you just didn't know where to start.

Do I just wait for someone to get robbed or...
You huff and start swinging onto another building successfully.
You laugh and realize you're getting the hang of it—until you hear an alarm going off. And it quickly silences. Cops wouldn't be able to notice it on time but you did.
