BLACKDCHLIA

@syntheart .ᐟ  yeah.  yeah, i’m mj.  from school.  sorry, stark— uh, iron man— for barging.  it’s just he isn’t really answering any of my or our other friend’s calls and texts.  and he’s mentioned coming here sometimes…  thought it was worth the try. 

he’s not here, though i’m not sure why you’d come here to find him     . .well? are you alright? 

@shethwip  /  RIGHT?? it feels so trippy, rpc is so scarce these days sighhh

@33ftjump     / especially considering the actress..    genuinely we used to be a proper country 

@shethwip  /  you knoww this place was not what it once was bc in the golden age there would’ve been so many of her already?? genuinely surprised me 

@terminalwebs  .ᐟ  i’m not—?!  i’m not what?!  hey nono– come back!  don’t leave yet!  these weird guys are always after me, i don’t even have a weapon or anything—

⠀⠀i  think  we'd  both  know  he'd  notice  and  have  my  throat  for  it.     even  if  i'm  spider - man  or  not.     (     he  laughed  before  looking  to  where  she  pointed,     )     ah. . .     still  haven't  heard  back  from  the  others?     and  cool.     it's  a  clear  night  out  so.     (     peter  nodded,     trying  to  brush  off  of  his  own  awkwardness.     kinda  hard  when  you're  standing  as  an  unmasked  spider - man  in  your  ex  girlfriends  apartment.     )     really?     i–  i  mean,     sure.     yeah.     i'd  love  to.

@archndz .ᐟ  if you steal an extra one i won’t say anything.  but you know…  [  she gestured to the laptop.  ]  browsing linkedin.  mostly waiting for sundown so i can take a recreational walk.  [  these days, she felt a little clearer at twilight. the road to get those memories back was weird.  took a lot of faith in seemingly silly things.  ]  you could come with.  if you like recreational walks.

⠀⠀woah. . .     no  way!     he  wasn't  very  specific  on  it  but  that's  awesome. . .     guess  i'll  take  a  look.     (     a  pause,     )     so  what  are  you  doing  here?     other  than  it's  your  home.

⠀⠀did  they  actually  confirm  it  was  spider - man  or?     (     peter  smiled,     somehow  having  a  little  bit  of  / fun /  reminiscing  with  her  from  an  outsider  perspective.     to  her  she  was  just  some  random  guy.     and  as  much  as  it  hurt. . .     he  missed  her.     he  missed  this.     talking  to  someone.     )     i'm  sure  it  wasn't  mostly  that,     maybe  its  the  spider - man  wall  tainting  your  memories.     did  you  have  any  theories?     i've  seen  some  funny  forums  about  it.     (     his  eyes  flickered  down  to  her  hand  before  back  up  at  her  face,     )     that's  good.     sounded  like  fun,     i  guess.
            
            /*     i totally wished they explained more of how the spell worked sighs but we shall make do!!!! and truly... there would be so many gaps please 

@archndz  .ᐟ  during the night monkey stuff.  night monkey, as in, spider-man but in a black suit.  [  mj chuckled.  she didn’t know / how / the news had come up with the night monkey name, but it was still funny.  ]  but yeah…  school organised it.  but i think i spent most of it trying to figure out who spider-man was, for whatever reason.  [  she fiddled with the broken pendant, as if it might give her answers.  sometimes she felt it got her to the brink of it.  ]  it was a good time.  really good.
            
            /  also i’m assuming she’s talking to MAYNARD or what she’s saying doesn’t make sense hsjsj but for real… they didn’t bring up that europe trip more bc the gaps would be SO obvious so quick 

⠀⠀right,     the  murder  case.     i  remembered  hearing  about  that,     not  surprised  you  would  be  into  the  case  as  well.     (     he  was  sure  it  was  silly,     asking  her,     but  he  at  least  wanted  to  gauge  what  she  could  recall.     even  if  it's  practically  nothing.     )     hold  up,     you  went  to  europe  for  a  high  school  trip?     was  that  before  or  after  the  night  monkey  stuff?
            
            /*     EXACTLY!!! the blueprint actually!!!!

@archndz .ᐟ  happened to the best of us.  [  she offered an awkward, but honest smile, easily taking his hand.  because this was a dangerous, unknown place.  a little jolt of electricity.  what?  like a little shock, yet oddly familiar.  her fingers twitched.  déjà vu.  what for?  ]  so…  what– you’ve had something going on, right?  like, going through a lot of stress phase?

⠀⠀yeah,     i  mean  not  like  you'd  know  since. . .     you  know.     (     he  cleared  his  throat,     stepping  over  one  of  the  last  traps  and  holding  a  hand  out  to  reach  for  her.     just  to  ensure  her  safety.     totally.     )     he's  not  that  suicidal.     or  crazy.     it's  perfectly  safe,     my  brain  is  clear  enough  to  tell.

@archndz  .ᐟ  you got dusted too?  damn.  sometimes i don’t know how we all moved past that.  [ eyes stayed firmly on the ground, half expecting to come across another trigger any moment now.  ]  the tiny staircase?  we’re sure there’s no booby traps there?  it looks perfect for traps. 
            
            

@archndz .ᐟ  the tank en– you really are a nerd.  my god…  [  mj rubbed a hand over her face, stopping at her mouth in a bad attempt to conceal her giggles.  unfortunately, that / was / funny. ]  maybe.  but they might start suspecting peter parker if he comes up with terrible fake names for every situation. 
            
            /  seems to work out for him somehow??  of course you see what i did hhh the multiverse works in mysterious ways…

⠀⠀(     peter  shrugged  with  a  smile,     )     what  can  i  say?     i  work  well  under  pressure.     thomas?     are  you  serious?     i  can  get  behind  the  other  two  but  thomas?     like  the  tank  engine?     i'll  take  them  into  consideration.     is  it  pathological  lying  or  just  concealing  the  truth?     no  one  knows  peter  parker  anyway.
            
            /*     i believe it cancels each other out..... in a strange twisted way...... also i giggled i see what u did there.....

@archndz  .ᐟ  the worst part is that it’s worked.  unbelievable.  uh…  andrew clements?  tobey johnson?  thomas sinclair?  see?  i gave you three on the spot.  risk-free and actual names.  not that i’m encouraging pathological lying or anything. 
            
            /  MENACE BEHAVIOUR!!  but menace to himself…  how can such a bad liar lead an anonymous superhero lifestyle i cannot believe

@archndz   / SNSHHDHDBD i’m most likely going tuesday bc i’m waiting for my dad AGHSHDBD i’m itching so bad you’re gonna be the first to know genuinely
