♛ 𝕷𝖎𝖒𝖊𝖗𝖊𝖓𝖈𝖊 ♛ ~ Peter Parker [1]

pure speculation and angry roomates

"i'm sorry, who now?"

"scorpion. he's insane to say the least. he was experimented on and given powers for the sole purpose of taking me down. he turned out to be a prolific robber and i beat him, sending him to the raft. i'm not surprised he also escaped. he shoots poison darts that make you hallucinate, sometimes kill you if you're in the wrong situation. i suspect he was there to kill you last night, but you dodged it and when you spotted him, he ran."

"pass me the dart." i ask. peter drops it in my hand. i put some of the poison into a Petri dish and slide it under a microscope.

"you're right, it's some kind of hallucinogen. i can't tell what by looking at it though." i remove the poison from the microscope and move it into another test tube, and plop in into a machine that will help me determine what exactly it is.

"it's a modified strain of LSD." i read from the computer.

"i might be able to cook up some sort of anti-drug to weaken its affects, it might not work perfectly though since i have a limited sample size, but it'll be better than nothing."

"i've tried before, you think you can do it?"

"i'm pretty confident i can do it. it's part of what i'm studying."

"off topic, but would you come on a stake out with me tonight?"

"i can, what are we staking out and where?" i ask.

"got a lead on a possible drug deal going down, no big deal or anything. probably won't be there long. i thought it would be a good opportunity for you to learn since we got your suit done. and i could use the company. swing around my apartment at 7 and i'll take you there."

"it's a date." i joke.

"a-a date?" peter stutters and rubs the back of his neck.

"chill out, it was a joke." i brush off, even though a small part of me didn't want it to be a joke, but it didn't matter now. i had to concentrate on the anti-drug.

"it's 6:30." mj reminds me.

"thanks mj." i rush out of my room. i have my suit on without my mask or hood on.

"do i look okay?" i ask, the skin tight suit had made me a tad insecure, but the spider-bite had given me insta abs so i didn't really have anything to worry about.

"you look great, now leave before you're late cause you're a new swinger." mj urges.

"okay, mom." i banter. she rolls her eyes and walks away. this'll be my first time swinging be myself, let alone at night.

i pull my mask over my head along with the hood and i crawl out my window and start swinging.

i did better at swinging than i thought, only narrowly missing a few lampposts. i soon found myself outside of peters apartment. i tapped lightly on the window to let him know i was there.
