@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 

⠀⠀yeah.          (     he  held  out  the  book  as  he  sat  down  next  to  her,     using  his  other  hand  to  rub  the  back  of  his  neck  nervously,     )          to  be  completely  honest  with  you  i  found  it  a  while  ago.     i  was  waiting  for  some  sort  of  occasion  like  your  birthday  or...     or  some  weird  holiday  you  seemed  to  adopt.     but  i  guess  this  is  good  time  as  any.          (     he  nodded  sheepishly  at  her.     he  knew  he  didn't  have  to  do  much,     but  he  overthought  into  putting  into  some  grand  gesture  despite  knowing  she'd  be  okay  with  something  more  simple.     )          it's  the  least  i  could  do,     since  i  make  you  put  up  with  all  the  stuff  i  do.  .  .

@archndz .ᐟ  oh.  (  to be fair, she didn’t know what she expected, but it wasn’t this.  )  how did you even— ?  i’ve looked in every nook of this city.  ( and peter would know that, too.  she had expressed her sorrows thoroughly.  )  thank you.  peter, you really didn’t have to.  but thank you.  seriously.  (  she / had / actually forgiven him.  there was no secret agenda to it.  she was just a little down, the kind that could’ve been solved with a day’s time, or a trip to a coffee shop.  )

⠀⠀thanks.  .  .     well,     it's  not  much.     just  this  book  you've  been  talking  about  for  ever.     if  you  still  want  it.

⠀⠀(     peter  blinked  at  the  kiss,     eyes  darting  around  before  falling  on  her  smiling  face.     shyness  creeping  around  the  edges  of his  expression.     )         well,     you  know.  .  .          (     he  stuttered.     he  doesn't  know  why  he  still  acts  this  way  with  her,     but  he  likes  it  anyway.     )          thanks.     i'm  guessing  i  should  wear  it  like  this  more  often?
            
            /*          no body else i would do it with for this long anyway... :D

@archndz .ᐟ  (  was it good?  for her eyes, definitely.  for her brain?  probably not.  )  …yes.  you look—  (  mj didn’t know why this was still so hard sometimes.  so she leaned in, kissed his cheek, and smiled.  )  —you look pretty.  it’s good on you. 
            
            /  ain’t that just the truth…  we’ve been at it so long now, nobody could get it like this… 

⠀⠀apology  accepted,     i  like  bees  anyway.     and  no?     i  mean  i  didn't  comb  it  today  if  that's  what  you're  asking. .  .     is  that  a  good  thing?
            
            /*          the best ship ever sighs whistfully... and we do it the best 

⠀⠀i  mean.  .  .     uhhh.  .  .     i.  .  .          (     he  watched  her,     hands  lifting  up  nervously,     as  he  didn't  know  what  to  do,     )          what?     nononono!     karen  do  not  show  those  to  her!!      well,     it's  a  guilty  habit  of  mine  and  maybe  sometimes  i  / crash /  when  i  do  it  but  seriously  it's  not  that  bad.  .  .

@archndz .ᐟ  ahhh, embarrassing.  (  he could not see it behind the mask, but her grin was pure amusement now.  )  more than what i’ve already seen from you and ned?  sounds promising… wait… there’s a compilation of your avengers impersonations? karen is very excited about that– but wait–  texting  / and /  swinging compilation?

⠀⠀she  is!     but  sometimes  she  says  things  that—-      or  might  show  you—-     uh!          (     peter  laughed  nervously,     looking  at  his  masked  girlfriend,     )          not  like  that,     think  less  incriminating  but  more  embarrassing.  .  .
            
            /*     actuaallyyy bc i couldnt at all

/*          i literally went back and reread our old rps on your board and my heart!!!! oohhh my god they were babies i cant believe we'll be seeinh them again.... AND OUR IDEAS WILL BE SCRUMPTIOUS && THANK YOUUU you as well smirks.....

@archndz  /   uGH SO TRUE ANTICIPATION IS IN THE AIR!!! ALSO THE NEW THEME??? IMMACULATE 

/*          oh everyone watch out the best petermj accs are coming home

  im  not  a  studier,  unless  it's  something  i  actually  like  to  study.  which  isn't  very  often.
            
            @BLACKDCHLIA 

@slasherslegacy  .ᐟ  well, yeah.  i guess.  don’t you?  keeps my brain on its toes.  and the scholarship. 

⠀⠀maybe matching ones.     with ned.     something like  ‘ i survived ’ . . .     something  ‘ and all i got was this shirt. ’     those ones always crack me up.     (     he smiled down at her,     moving his hands to at least help with the pressure on the wound.     trying to keep them busy so he could just do anything else.     he wasn't totally lying though,     he would miss this star wars shirt.     )     the camera is fine,     i think.     if anything jonah's assistant can cover it. . .     it  / is /  essential to my job.     been probably needing a new one anyway.     (     he shrugged but the movement was limited,     afraid he'd stop the process of what was happening on his abdomen.     with a free hand he did take the ice pack and put it gently on his temple,     near his eye.     )     would you believe me if i said that my aunt made me get self defense classes?     (     he was about to go on,     maybe make a few quips but the words fell short as she moved some hair away.     he blinked a couple of times until he realized that mj was speaking again.     wake up,     peter!     stop being dramatic!     )     hmm. . .     yes it hurts but. . .     definitely better than it was moments ago.     all thanks to you.

@archndz  .ᐟ  (  the initial panic had calmed now, upon realising he was not dropping dead.  or on the verge of passing out.  she didn’t know what she’d do in that case.  call an ambulance, if it didn’t cost more than any and all their savings.  )  we can pitch in and get you a new one.  or a cooler one.  (  she couldn’t help but chuckle, feeling a wave of desperate sort of affection for him.  who got all but filleted and lamented their dorky shirt?  )  the camera, too.  i think my dad has one that he never used…  i’ll see if he still has it.  oh, god, i’m so glad you’re not dead.  (  she laughed at her own admission, words spilling out so easily.  she reached over with the other hand for the ice pack, offering it to him.  that black eye looked… painful, to say the least.  )  i trust i’d be shocked by all the damage you dealt.  (  she half-joked.  honestly, for how seamlessly peter hid it, it didn’t escape mj’s notice that he  * was *  strong.  she didn’t comment on it, but she knew.  she let out a small sigh, pushing a strand of his hair away from the bruising area.  )  does it hurt a lot?  uh, you don’t have to answer if it hurts to.  guess it’s a dumb question.

⠀⠀(     was it the blood loss or did she look really pretty right now?     well,      peter thought,     she always looked pretty and that was mostly the problem of why he would stop and stutter so much around her.     he kind of let her do most of the talking—     not because it hurt but because he liked watching her talk.     )     no problem.     oh man,     this was my favorite shirt. . .     (     he says this about all of his shirts as he looked down to where she was pressing down on,     seeing the damage.     and maybe he was a little grateful it was too hot to wear his suit underneath his clothes this night.     )     i mean,     psshhht,     yeah.     you should see them,     i did a lot of damage.     well you know. . .     it's new york.

@archndz .ᐟ  (  he didn’t go to the europe trip.  apparently.  how odd.  it was just…  * funny *.  he was everywhere and nowhere at once.  maybe those were bold words for her.  she didn’t even remember half of that trip.  only the bits with spider-man, nearly dying with ned and a few others, and the necklace.  she’d gotten the necklace at some point of it all.  )  you should have come.  would have been fun.  (  was all that came out, in an air of wistfulness. it would have been a lot harder to forget.  )  oh, the alien theory.  i love that one.  people not being able to process another  * human *  acting out of goodwill alone.  very telling.  (  it was just so nice to see peter smile.  it made sense.  an instant of purpose amid the great chaos.  )  sure.  i’ll check to see if i feel a spider-sense tingle.  * and *  i’ll check if you’re real.  you could be the cyborg, actually.  but anyway–  (  she scoffed at her own absurd wording, before tearing those last two pages from her notebook.  )  here.  for you.  home decor.

⠀⠀(     peter chuckled along with her,     it felt good being able to joke around like this with her.     it always just felt good speaking to her when all of his time that he had was spent alone or surrounded by the city's sounds.     he watched her carefully,     trying to tiptoe around the topic at hand.     )     ah,     yes,     your very important reputation.     . . .     that  / could /  be a good theory.     but then again i wouldn't know,     i didn't really go to the europe trip.     (     another lie.     hopefully one that he would be scolded on once she found out again.     )     nah,     it beats whatever i hear elsewhere.     people think he's like an alien or a cyborg the government created to replace the police.     yours are more down to earth.    less conspiratorial.     (     he couldn't help but smile widely,     it's been a while since he's been so happy.     he didn't know what else to say,     he was sure he'd be able to help with her lock but something in him wanted her to stay longer.     to talk with her longer.     )     yeah,     that's a good idea.     who does give the vibe of spider-man. . .     the biggest question of all.

@archndz  .ᐟ  god.  he’ll be giving out his résumé for assistant intern.  i’ll let him know.  (  mj snickered.  and another déjà vu.  hadn’t ned already had that idea?  hadn’t she already joked about this with peter?  they had been here before.  there were ghosts dancing in her mind.  )  yes.  midtown.  (  it wasn’t strange.  it was a public high school, and a relatively good one, at that.  and peter always seemed to know just a little more than she did.  )  it may have been a promise more than a bet.  but yeah.  can’t back away from it.  my reputation.  i mean…  maybe he wasn’t  * in * the school, but had someone important going there?  ‘cause he saved us when we almost got fried in europe.  that’s insane— but— yeah.  you probably hear enough theories about him as is.  (  she realised she was rambling, and again, not helping her  * not obsessed *  case.  if she could convey how it felt in her own head, maybe he’d understand.  )  i think i’ll see if i still have the yearbook.  see if anyone there speaks to me.

⠀⠀oh,     he's a total nutjob.     even without being displayed on the billboards he's just  / intense /.     (     this was peter's real opinion,     outside of spider-man.     they had a strange one-sided rivalry that only peter could sense it was more complex than others realized.     )     fly?     i wish. . .     i just know the correct people to get up onto certain rooftops.     birds eye view.

@archndz .ᐟ  right.  is he as crazy as he looks?  i don’t think i’ve heard him go a day without conspiring against spider-man.  (  maybe that was just his public persona, though?  whatever brought in the views and subscriptions.  )  don’t know how you get those pictures, though…  you make it look like you’re up there with him.  can you fly? 

⠀⠀(     peter chuckled a little,     it felt as more like he was the lucky one because of that.     to get this second chance. . .     it meant everything to him.     he was glad to have her in this way instead of none.     )     sorta?     i mean jonah always wants me to do crazy stuff to get pictures of him.     but i always prefer to watch them from a distance. . .
