as (Y/N) was chilling on a rooftop before she got a phone call. " hello" she said. "(Y/N), it's Doctor Octavius. " Otto said. (Y/N) smiles, " oh, hey, what's up?" she asks. "Lance Corporal Texidor is here for a fitting," Otto said making (Y/N)'s smile fade. " I totally forgot! I mean. I didn't forget - forget. I just ... uh, I'll be there soon." (Y/N) said in a panic before jumping off the roof and swinging to work. " this tardiness is starting to become a pattern. come on, (L/N). you're better than this" Otto said before hanging up the phone.
(Y/N) lands on the side of a wall and sighs in disappointment at herself. " Ugh, he's right. How did I lose track of time? Grr..." (Y/N) said in anger before landing on her work rooftop. she quickly runs inside while changing into normal clothes and lab coat. She stuffs her suit in her backpack and hides it before running into the room. she sees Otto and Lance sitting at a table, lance has a robot arm attached to him as he asks, "How does it work?" " just like a natural arm. you think of what you want it to do, and... " Otto explains as (Y/N) walks up to watch. lances take a deep breath before using the robotic arm and picking up the cup. Both Otto and (Y/N) smiled proudly at what they had active before it was interrupted by people walking in a taking their gear. " hey! Hey! Wh-what do you think you're doing?" (Y/N) asks as she trys to stop them, but a woman walks up and hands (Y/N) a letter. " this site's been declared a safety hazard." the city worker said. (Y/N) looked shocked as Otto stood up in anger as a worker picked up a bag of science equipment. " stop that right now! this is highly sensitive equipment." Otto said as he pulled the bag from the man. " that's it, I'm calling the mayor's office directly!" Otto said but before he could dial the number someone walked in. " (Y/N) (L/N)! how the hell are you." Norman Osborn said with a smile.
" speak of the devil," Otto said. norman walked up to (Y/N). " Mr Osborn, what-- " (Y/N) started but Norman interpreted her, "Oh please. how long have we known each other? it's " Mr mayor" Norman chuckled at his comment, "It's Norman. norman." he says. (Y/N) didn't laugh at his joke. " Norman, what do you think you're doing?" Otto asks. " the grant agreement you signed has strict safety provisions. this isn't your first violation" Norman said as he handed Otto a paper with information on it. Otto took it out of his hands and read it. " those were excused-- "Otto started but Norman stopped him by saying, "By me. we should have confiscated this equipment long ago.". Otto was shocked as he turned to face Lance. " but I've had a breakthrough--", Lance smiled kindly as he stood up before Norman shook his hand. " thank you for your great service to our country. these folks will escort you to Oscorp Robotics, where you'll receive the latest in Prosthetics, no charge" Norman said as his staff led the man away. (Y/N) was shocked at this along with Otto. " this isn't about safety infractions, is it?" Otto asks in anger. norman shrugged his shoulders, " I'm trying to help you, Otto. you're free to continue your work... in a secure environment. " Norman said with a warm smile. Otto scoffs, " At oscorp." he says "You always were the smartest guy in the room." Norman said. Otto shakes his head in disgust. " you haven't changed a bit." Otto replied. " neither have you," Norman said.
Norman then turned to (Y/N) with a smile, "Hey (Y/N), Harry will be coming back from Europe early next year. maybe the two of you can start that business you always talked about. I know Harry always loved working with you. this is opportunity knocking." he said before signalling his team to leave.
onc the room was clear, (Y/N) turned to see all of the high-tech equipment gone. she tried to remain calm before turning to Otto who was sitting down in shock. " they didn't take everything. Maybe we can start over---" (Y/N) started as she thought of ideas and looked around the room for anything to get started. But Otto stops her, " (Y/N)... there's no "we" he said. (Y/N) turned back to Otto in surprise, " what?" she asks. " without the grant from the city, I can no longer pay you. I need some time to think. if I were you... I'd look for a new job." (Y/N) slowly nods her head before walking out of the room as a tear goes down her cheek.
