@peterparker ; video - it's gen z vlog time

[spidermenaces]

(some of us love our vlogging, our youtubeing, tik-toking-- and since here it's a known fact that peter parker happens to be spider-man, well, that means he gets to turn his tablet on while he swings through the winter wonderland that aldrip has come. whoever is watching gets a very nice view of aldrip from the tallest buildings, the snow twinkling and sparkling beneath him as he goes from building to building until he stops at the tallest one.

the camera pans and switches to his face, hair a mess of curls from all the wind that it faced and he smiles. it feels good to smile.)

So, I heard this thing, right -- this guy from the pizza shop told me, I don't know if he's lying or what, but apparently? Apparently, there's this superstition that we aren't supposed to leave our home during the solstice or something? But I'm curious - did someone go out last year? Did something happen? And if we go out... Well, actually, who's going out, first of all?

(the camera switches again, so he can film the skating ring from above-- someone just fell on their ass, and he sucks teeth because that must have hurt.)

Ooooh, ouch. Well, wear a helmet, don't get sick, invite me if you have eggnog! Friendly neighborhood Spider-man, out!

[Guess who's responding to this, from somewhere else in the city? She's been busy patrolling too, but at least she stops to reply. Gwen's currently upside, hair tied up, and laughing as his silliness.]

Ouch. I hope that was a local, otherwise you're really going to ruin someone's day by exposing them like this.

[spidermenaces]

(it takes a while for him to get back to it, considering he actually went down to help the poor person on the ice ring.

once he picks this back up, he's back to swinging - she says 'no swing and type', not 'no swing and video', he thinks he's safe.

anyone else who might be seeing this might not be from the motion sickness, but alas.)

Yep, a local, but also, hey, not my fault, the timing was a whole thing. How are things on your end?

[arachnerina]

[It's one thing to be swinging, it's another thing entirely to watch him swing. He really is all over the place, isn't he? Gwen rolls her eyes, noticing his very obvious loop-hole, after she fussed at him for texting while swinging.]

I didn't blame you for him falling. Just recording it and showing it to everyone. And so far so good. Been watching some kids destroying each other with snowballs. Nothing super exciting happening in the city yet.

[spidermenaces]

They're okay, at least. Their butt is gonna hurt for a while, but no broken bones. Sent them off with a soup. I should get some for us too, but like, later? It sounds worse than texting and swinging - to swing around with hot soup?

(NOT RELATED.)

Okay, but who's winning?

[arachnerina]

Yeah, maybe don't do that. Swinging with soup sounds like a terrible idea. [She'd still laugh her ass off at him, at the aftermath, but she knows it wouldn't be good.]

Maybe that's a "walk it home" kind of meal. Or I could just meet you there later, and we eat it there?

[He would be curious. It's okay, she's been entertained too.]

This one kid has practically built himself a fort. He's taking on like three kids twice his size. It's pretty impressive.

[spidermenaces]

Right? Let's not stress the Spider-healing.

Yeah, we could definitely go! Got your Christmas sweaters? We can't go without Christmas sweaters.

Oh, nice.

un: beta / text;

[nobetawedielike]

Are you flying?

[spidermenaces]

Uh no
I'm swinging
Webs?

[nobetawedielike]

You're an actual arachnid?

[spidermenaces]

... No, not really, but kinda?

[nobetawedielike]

Is it a magic thing?

[spidermenaces]

Nope, genetic thing I guess

[querulus]

Oh, yeah, I did. 80 people died. Absolute bloodbath. Thanks for the motion sickness, by the way.

[Quentin no.]

Hey, kid, I got a job for you.

1/2

[spidermenaces]

... You are joking right because I can't find anything about it
You're joking right
Quentin??????

2/2

[spidermenaces]

How can I friendly neighborhood help you today?

[querulus]

do you really think i would joke about the deaths of 80 people??

[Quentin no.]

what do you know about bows? and by extension arrows?

[spidermenaces]

I don't know Alexa?????

I mean
I think I know enough? The physics of it aren't hard
Efficiency (%) = [((1/2) * m * v^2) / (∫[0 to d] F(x) dx)] * 100<
Deformation of an elastic object
Stores energy, delivers energy
KE = (1/2) * m * v^2
Etc
Is it for mister Hawkeye because that'd be
INSANELY cool

[querulus]

no clue what you're talking about

ok a) never call him "mister hawkeye" ever again
b) literally nothing about barton is "INSANELY cool"
but yeah it's for him.

[Obviously Stark makes all of Clint's stupid gadget arrows back home. So it's up to Quentin to pick up the slack! Spoilers: this is not true at all.]

[spidermenaces]

He's twice my age Quentin
I can't do that
And also it really really is

Can you bring him to STEM?

It's my intention to go out if it proves to be dangerous.
People may need assistance.

[ and because he's read/listened to the other convos on this post: ] You produce webbing?

[ .. what kind of spider-hybrid are you.. ]

[spidermenaces]

Yeah that's what I was thinking too
I'm going out just in case

So if you go out maybe we could cover different ground
Think that's best

Also no
I mean kinda
I make it in a lab
So technically I produce it
With my two hands
In a lab

[aonibi]

I'd be amenable to that. You're a capable combatant? [ like he's not going to have to rescue you too, right? (he doesn't know much about the spider-folk here.)



also why are there so many scientists in this place.. ]

I see. You're very good with it.

[spidermenaces]

Yep
I like to think so
Pretty okay

Ah, thank you. It's really really cool because it can hold at least 2000kg of weight
The tensile structure of it is crazy
And it's a fluid
Easy to store

[aonibi]

Perhaps it's worth assigning patrol routes, then. Unless it's already been done.


Very like real spider-silk, then. The applications for it must be endless.
How do you dissolve it when necessary?

[spidermenaces]

Yeah actually that's where I was going with this
I need to know who's going
So
Yeah
We are three so far

They really are
And it dissolves in a few hours
Or I have a solution to do that for me
