I sat on the edge of a rooftop scrolling through my phone out of boredom. There wasn't a single report of crime in the city. And that... majorly disappointed me. Now, I won't get the chance to test out the Spider-Arms Pete made.

While I had the free time, I scouted some jobs on my phone. Mania head will occasionally pop out my back to take a peek at the phone. Which, I used her to help for a second opinion for the jobs I'm looking at.

Spider-man: Look at this one. A father is looking for a tutor for his... five identical daughters?

Mania: There's a word for that, right?

Spider-man: Yeah. Quintuplets. Hmm. Interesting.

Mania: Gonna take it? It pays well.

I shake my head.

Spider-man: As promising as this job seems, I need something more flexible. Plus, tutoring Quintuplets sounds like a hassle. *Chuckle* Who would be dumb enough to take a job like this?

For some reason. I get the feelings. I might be dumb enough to do this. Weird.

Mania: Try a freelance photographer.

Spider-man: Nah. Pete did that. I need something original.

Mania: Painting?

Y/n: I never painted once in my life. And I ain't starting here.

I continued to scroll through my phone. Among my aimless search, I caught something that interested me.

"Looking for part-timers at"... EMF?

Might check in with Pete later about this. It would be awesome to work with him again.

Time passes quite fast. It was 11PM, now it's 3AM. I sighed and put my phone away.

Spider-man: I have to get up in the morning for college. Ugh, I hate pulling nights like these. It's worse knowing that nothing eventful happened.

As I was just about to head home, I heard a loud crash from below. I stared down and saw these thugs trying to break into a building, right in the open no less.

Spider-man: Are they...

Mania:(Thoughts) Yeah. They are.

Spider-man/Mania: Their doing a B&E in the open.

I smiled. At last, I finally got the chance.

Spider-man: These guys are in for a shock.

I jumped off the building and plummeted from a 30-story tall building all the way on the ground. Mania had her tendrils under my feet so I wouldn't potentially shatter them.

The thugs all jump when I seemingly appear out of nowhere.

Thug#1: Who the heck stays up this long?!

Spider-man: Justice never sleeps! Unfortunately... that means virtually no rest for me. *Sigh*

Thug#2: Get him!

They all ran towards me. One of them held their pipe in the air and swung it. The iron arms sprout from my back, parrying the pipe and knocking it out of his hand. Leaning my whole body back, the Spider-Arms supported my weight and propelled me forward as I kicked the thug in the face.
