The world is building up and things are getting too big.

We need to touch base with Gwen...she's involved in this big secret and she's smart...lets get her help on these issues with our dad and actually sit down and talk to her about Smythe...like what we should do...because if a bite from one of these spiders did this to us...

There were more spiders...there were more gene manipulated animals of all stripes...

Peter, Peter, Peter... If you find a cache of you father's (or mother's, no idea what she did for a living in this continuity) hidden in a secret, easily accessible compartment it might be best to continue using that compartment for future hiding of said secret documents... What I'm saying is that while the closet is the best you can do for the moment, it ain't up to snuff for hiding this particular stuff.

>[ ]Get up and go to school

You drag yourself out of bed and get ready for the day. You look back over at your closet. Honestly, its probably better to put them back where they were, but there’s no way you can do it right now. Its best to leave them there, for now. You slip the newspaper back into your backpack.

You go down the stairs and grab a quick breakfast, Aunt May giving you an amused look. “Up late reading again, Peter?”

You give her a weak grin and nod. She shakes her head. “Well, best hurry on your way. Don’t want to be late.”

You give her a kiss on the cheek farewell before heading out the door.

>[X]Take the bus

You think about trying to run and meet up with Gwen, but you’re just too tired. Yawning, you walk to the bus stop and wait. The skies are overcast overhead as you sit on the bench nearby and wait.

You look over at the newspaper stand and see another article on the Black Cat. Seems like he plans to strike in a week, according to the title.

Shrugging, you get up and board the bus, approaching your usual seat and sitting. Next to you Harry quietly whistles.

“Burning the midnight oil again, Pete?”

You nod before leaning your head back against the seat and doze off. Harry, ever the constant friend, lets you get a few more minutes of sleep in.

Your classes begin and you sit through them, keeping yourself conscious through sheer force of will. The day seems to blur past you and before you know it, the day’s done.

Packing up your bags, you close your locker and decide on what to do. Tonight isn’t a scheduled tutoring day.

We need to keep her in the loop.

>>26705327
>[X] Gwen

I think we needed to put some more time into lesson planning before meeting with Felix again. Harry we should probably try to hang out with before the weekend, but not tonight.

>>26705327
Go home, investigate our Dad's notes. This is the sort of thing that would capture Pete's attention. And the sooner we get web fluid the better. Assuming that's what it is, of course. If we're taking inspiration from Ultimate Spiderman we might wind up with the symbiote before we even debut. That could be bad.

>>26705327
>[ ]Call Gwen, try to meet up
There's also Eddie's parting words last night to think about...
Primary concern here is to keep close tabs with each other in case of Smythe snooping and digging around.

You mean the ones to the effect of "well, at least you dream big kid, but good luck with that..."?

Seems quiet tonight.

>>26705593
Yep. Although if Eddie Brock had that impression about her, does it mean they've met beforehand in this continuity?
Going into these threads with little to no Spiderman knowledge.

>>26705593
His comments did imply that he knew Gwen, or knew of her at least. Maybe it's just that he's gotten to know Captain Stacy through working the crime desk, so he knows he'd be a very protective father. Hopefully something like that, instead of something Parker Luck related.

>writing

Guys we gotta try to squeeze in some time with Felix this thread if we can

We have to help our adorable new friend

>>26705431
That'd be bad because then it wouldn't replicate the webbing right?
I'm just hoping you're implying that we're going to keep the symbiote. because I think we shouldn't... Ever..

>>26705782
He is pretty adorable. Alright, then. Let's write up some study materials when we get home so we can be more efficient next time we're there. Felix seems like a nice guy, we should make sure he gets all the help we can give.

>>26705782
Yeah, but we should probably have a decent lesson plan and a good night sleep before we have another late night with Fe.

>>26705782
We just spent some time with him yesterday, and we'll be spending time with him in the future to help with his grades. He does not need to monopolize our time, especially with the Smythe issue still being in the air.

>>26705327
>Call Felix, arrange to tutor him tonight.

>>26705824
Unless we can find some way to effectively lobotomize it. If we have full and irrevocable control it might be with risking the psychosis.

>[X]Call Gwen, try to meet up

You go to the school phone, only to see it used. You wait until the people ahead of you finish up before you approach the phone and dial Gwen’s number. The phone rings a few times and you think she’s not answering before, finally, she picks up, her tone annoyed.

“What is it?”

“Hey, Gwen, its Peter. I‘m calling from school.”

When she responds, her tone is friendlier. “Oh? Sorry about that Peter. I forgot you don’t have a cell phone. I’ve been dealing with a lot of prank calls lately, especially from this number. What’s up?”

I'm so sorry Anon, but >>26705771.

>>26705824
More that I'm worried about what the symbiote would do to us at this point in the story. Venom has the fixation it does with Peter because it has, on some level, a lot of admiration for him. Not for the good he does, really, but just because it's impressed with his accomplishments as Spiderman. It's the whole "jilted lover" thing. A Peter Parker who has yet to do anything heroic might not get bonded to by the symbiote, because what would it see in him? We'd probably just get digested.

>>26705892

Ask if she wants to do anything this afternoon. Suggest talking about Smythe but don't come out and just say it.

>>26705892
Ask if she wants to do anything. Bring up the other stuff later.

>>26705892
Ask to meet up to talk about Smythe, and tell her we found something interesting she should see

>[ ]ask if she wants to do anything this afternoon
Smythe we'll look into after, and we'll tell her about what we found when we know what it is

>>26705892

we could both use a break from our lives just getting weird

start talking about uncle ben. then whine like a bitch about how he's all dead and shit.

then proceed to act like a whiny little bitch for three movies.

>>26705892
Well first take an interest in her life by asking about the prank calls.

Like who even knows her cell number?

>>26705892
>Hang out
>[X] Write in: we need a friend/confidant to talk about the family money problems to.
Gwen's a good candidate for the latter in case we end up joining a MMA league (or something) to make money quick. We could use someone to watch our back with that crowd.

>>26705892
>[X]ask if she wants to do anything this afternoon

>>26705883
Well, the Symbiote is sentient. It just has a nasty habit of jacking up adrenaline and rage hormones. I think if we flex our willpower and communicate with it as though it's an actual being it may be more interested in a partnership.

I'm thinking of something almost akin to Toxin's mastery of the symbiote.. It gets a couple hours of playtime so long as no one gets hurt, and no major property damage... And we get the benefit of its assistance while it gets the benefit of a host.

It's really a MASSIVE powerup across the board.. we may get a hit to fellowship, however we'd be able to stomp the shit our of some big baddies...

We may not even necessarily need to go the whole route of "playtime' either as the black symbiote is older.. more mature.. Carnage and Toxin were rather young.. though Gwen might make a good Carnage herself...

>>26705892
>>[ ]Ask to meet up to talk about Smythe
>>[ ]tell her about what you found

Both of these.
But let's not make it about them.. We want to see her.. Male this more about her rather than what draws them together...

>>26705892
>[ ]ask if she wants to do anything this afternoon

We can't just admit to stuff like Smythe in public, we can explain that should we meet up.

>>26706035
He's not dead yet. Hasn't even given us the great power speech. Though knowing Uncle Ben it's probably a speech we've heard plenty of times before, it just hasn't come at a dramatic point yet.

>>26705892
>[X]ask if she wants to do anything this afternoon

>>26705892
>ask if she wants to do anything this afternoon
the other two are not for public ears

>>26706063
Only as long as Cosgrove doesn't pull a Planet of the Symbiotes on us and has us permanantely merge with the symbiote.

>>26706142
That doesn't really happen. I mean it leaves leftovers but unless we get cancer like Eddie did and become dependent there's no permanent bonding.

>>26706043
Agreed. Peter's the kind of person to be concerned by that. Though it's probably just Harry being jealous about how she's taking up all our time or something like that.

>>26706052
That's a neat idea. Maybe not bring it up now, but that's definitely something to bring up eventually. We can't talk about it with Harry, his Dad's a billionaire. His family life might not be great, but that doesn't mean he understands what we're going through. Gwen's family is working class, her dad is a single father working a very stressful job, she'd relate to us wanting to help Aunt May and Uncle Ben.

>>26705948
Wasn't the entire reason why Venom was on earth because he didn't WANT to enslave and digest his hosts?

>writing

>>26706187
I am now considering plans to give Peter cancer. Gonna be honest here, never expected to do that.

>>26706215
Well, Venom is considered "insane" by the other symbiotes because it wants to commit to a relationship instead of play the field. But that doesn't mean it's just going to up and fuse with the first person to come along. You gotta be worth the effort, honey.

And that's provided we're talking about alien Venom. If we encounter it in Richard Parker's research it would probably be the biotech Venom from the Ultimate Spiderman comics. In which case it certainly would eat Peter if it wasn't impressed by him. That thing's a right bastard.

>>26706215
That... I don't read the comics but I DO remember that.. It left because it wanted to try actual symbiosis rather than devour and absorb.. it was considered a freak by its kind...
It was cast out and made that choice..

The symbiote IS Peter Parker..
Gentlemen, I've found our new waifu.

>[X]ask if she wants to do anything this afternoon
>[X]Prank Calls?

Your eyebrows furrow in concern. “Prank calls? What’s this about someone prank calling you?”

Gwen’s tone is dry but amused. “You sound like my father, Peter. Yeah, someone’s been prank calling my phone for the past few days. I expect I know why, but it isn’t any big deal.”

She tries to brush it off, but you can tell it does bother her. You decide to change topics.

“So, did you want to do anything this afternoon?”

You keep your tone as light as you can but it’s obvious why you’d be asking to the two of you. “I can’t tonight. My father’s got the night off for once so we’re spending it together. How’s tomorrow?”

“Uh, yeah. Sure. See you tomorrow.”

“Bye, Peter. See you tomorrow.”

You hear her hang up before you hang up the phone as well.

>>26706290
Oh, we were talking about waifu Venom from the first thread, man. It really does fit disturbingly well. As I recall, we were contemplating if one of the potential love interests would wind up with the symbiote instead of Eddie, just to make it text instead of subtext.

>>26705782
Like this anon said, we need to help cute new friend

I'd like to think that if Peter were able to set up a way of communicating with the suit early on, and establishing some ground rules, limitations and whatnot, perhaps she wouldn't have gone over the edge and gone all psycho ex-girlfriend on Peter.

Think about it; violent mood swings which can be suppressed by a chemical found in both brains and chocolate, and an unhealthy fixation on the person that "dumped" her.

I realize that he's referred to as "dad" by Carnage, but what if there is no word for "mother" in their language, and father and all of its derivative terms are as close as they can get?

>>26706345

Stop. Please stop. I get that you're probably joking, but eventually people will start getting serious about this. Stop before it's too late.

>[ ]Go home

You decide to go home. You’re tired and it would probably be best to work on a lesson plan for Felix so that you’re more prepared. Not to mention, you can investigate whatever’s in that bag.

Yawning, you walk away from the phone and head on home.

It doesn’t take long to walk home as you walk up to your house. The door’s locked, so you use your key to unlock it and head inside. “I’m home!”

You look around, but see another note pinned to the bulletin board. Seems like Aunt May and Uncle Ben will be at your neighbor’s again. Which is good. At least you’ll be to have some privacy.

You go up to your room and lock the door behind you, checking your closet, but the bag and hard drive are where you last left them.

Maybe there were people trying to get at what he had created and killed him when he wouldn't budge. Maybe this is going to be something world-changing!

Or he hid it because it was such a terrible failure that he was ashamed of it but too dedicated to the scientific method to destroy data. He was trying to create a new super-polymer and instead just made something that keeps making farting sounds. He was still killed for his research, though.

Might I just say that I still don't understand why they made that deal? Aunt May is in her 80s right?

Seemed pretty selfish and juvenile to bring her back is all I'm saying.

>>26706949
Did that happen? Bugger, ignore >>26706988 then.

>>26706922
More specifically "Peter Parker fails, Spiderman succeeds". Pete can win in the sense that he saves people and makes other people's lives better, but he can never manage to improve things in his private life. Well, he did marry a supermodel, but that somehow didn't do much to improve his lot in life even before it got Mephistoed away.

Really, Peter's luck is kind of odd given how close he is with the Fantastic Four. You'd think Reed Richards would be able to hook up a brilliant chemist with a job with sufficient schedule flexibility that he could still go out and be Spiderman. It can't be that Peter is too proud to accept help. He got a wall-climbing Spider-Mobile from them, you don't get to pull the pride card once you've done that.

My pet theory is that the lingering guilt over uncle Ben's death has been causing Peter to self-sabotage (or whatever term you prefer) his entire subsequent life as a coping mechanism. Probably wrong about that, anyone have a better idea?

That's a fair point. Spiderman's failures are usually somehow related to Peter's personal life, but he never has to face the responsibility as Peter Parker. So while they still ruin his life, he isn't to blame for them in the eyes of his friends and family like he is for all the things Peter hasn't been there for.

You take your time and begin writing up a lesson plan. Even though this is your first time doing this, it seems pretty easy. But maybe that’s because you seemed to have gotten a good amount of insight into Felix’s ways of learning from looking at his notes.

So, naturally, you make a great lesson plan, in your opinion, to help take care of those problems. It takes you an hour or two before you feel satisfied with your results. You save the lesson plans to the computer and a flash drive, as well as print them out. These will be useful in the future.

When you’re done with that, you grab something to eat, heating up a can of soup and making yourself a sandwich. You turn on the TV as you cook and eat. Seems like Reed Richard’s mission has met with some minor problems according to a message they’ve received. Seems like they’re coming back early in the next few days.

Turning off the TV, you wash up the dishes you dirtied and head back downstairs. You take a chair and go to one of the open tables with the bag. There’s a lock on it.

>>26707301
>Search for a key

Who knows how often Uncle Ben checks that thing.

>>26707301
Search for a key. Dad may have died when we were pretty young, but we remember he loved spy movies. Richard Parker was just the sort of paranoid to have left some sort of small explosive or acid mechanism to trigger if the lock isn't properly released.

>>26707301
get a key. if there's a trap in the bag, we'll destroy the notes. and if dad was paranoid enough to hide this stuff, he's paranoid enough to trap it

>>26707301
Lets look for the key for the... lock on the bag (what).
We don't know how paranoid dad was, so it's better to open it properly than to risk some sort of self destructive boobytrap going off or something.

You search the room from top to bottom, even using your spider powers to help, even double-checking the secret compartment. There’s no key that you can see. Its taken you a while to look over the place, but there’s nothing there.

You sit down in the computer chair and let out a sigh. Looking over at an old picture frame with a photo of you and your parents when you were young, you pick it up. “Dad… where did you put the key? Where would you hide it?”

You look at the picture before staring at it more closely, hearing something as you slightly shake it. More specifically, you start staring at the thickness of the frame. It’s to think for that glass, so where did that sound come from? The photo didn‘t move, so what did?

Turning it over, you open it op and look at the thick backing of it. Using your spider powers on an odd part of the inner lining of the case, you pull it free. Inside, you see a key and a note. Opening it, you see your father’s handwriting.

-”Just in case anything happens, Peter.”-

You stare at it and bite your lip before taking the key and closing up the frame again. Taking the key, you unlock the lock and open the bag. Inside, there seems to be some sort of trap that was there if it was broken.

Inside seems to be different things your father worked on. Notes, blueprints, formulas. These things… why were they hidden away?

>Edit: If a DC is fifteen points or higher than the maximum that can be obtained with a twenty plus modifiers, then it is NOT an automatic success. This is the only exception. Some things aren't always possible to do, especially on the first attempt.

I'm guessing this is gonna be more of a jump start for Peter to start figuring out some things.
Maybe the whole mystery won't be unraveled right away, but at least it'll be some progress towards an end.

>dc20, 21. Success!

You figure out the basics of some things, mainly those related to chemistry and engineering. The higher level physics stuff you don’t have too much experience with, after all. Though you do recognize what’s clearly a replica of the blueprints of Tony Stark’s giant Arc Reactor in California. You roll that back up. That’s a keeper.

But there’s some chemistry, and some bio-chemistry but that’s also out of your range, too.

There’s simpler stuff, but the two that catch your eye seems to be the sheer-thinning liquid adhesive and the object designed to go along with it to disperse it. According to the notes for it, it seems like your father had plans for an invention for police officers to more safely restrain criminals. Furthermore, due to its nontoxic nature, it could be temporarily used to do stuff like clot wounds.

The most important part that caught your interest? You could /understand/ the formula. It isn’t even that hard to make! Looking through the things here, a lot of it is too high level for you to get yet, but this- this does have potential…

You spot a paper that’s had some of it ripped off. You line up the fragment from the photo to it.

A perfect match.

-“This is everything we’ve worked on. None of it is patented. Like I’d want that slime ball getting his hands on anything we’ve worked on. This message is left to you just in case anything happens, Peter. Don’t ever trust Norman Osborn. Everything Carl and I worked on, I leave to you, my son. Be safe. Be happy.

Your mother and I will always be proud of you.

-Richard Parker”-

You stare at the paper before looking back at everything on the table.

I can't help but feel that if we talk to Ben about it, bad things happen. Same with Gwen...

We can't put the genie back in the bottle now, it's out.

Therefor, I propose we try to MAKE that solution if it's so easy. Mom and dad gave us this for a reason... we where bit by that spider and got these powers... it's all for a reason. It's our destiny.

Only if she goes to her dad with it. She was the one who told /us/ that spider business stayed private. She deserves to be informed of our discovery and simply kept in the loop. If she decides to join us crimefighting (cop's daughter she wouldn't be instantly opposed to it, so it's likely) then anything that affects us will be affecting her. As for putting it back, that stuff is invaluable, we need to make copies, but for now, they need to stay hidden.

>>26708259
Check out the hard drive, now. The electronic files are probably just as interesting as the physical ones. Though probably encrypted, now that I think about it. Still worth checking out. Maybe we'll find some blackmail on Osborn.

No.

I'm the blacksuit waifu guy.. and I'm saying no to that. You need to stop.

>>26708513
No.

>>26708582
At least we now have an explanation for why Peter never tried to market the web fluid instead of keeping it for himself. If the world thinks Spiderman's webs are just part of his powers there's no suspicion. But if Richard Parker's son patents a new polymer technology, that might tip Osborn off.

>>26708640
If not blackmail, then criminal evidence that'll stand up in court.

>>26708582
>blackmail Osborn.
Son, you NEVER go full retard.

>>26708640
Okay? I was just thinking in terms of insurance, just in case we really need to have dirt on him. I wasn't planning on having Peter actually doing that unless the situation gets desperate.

Also, why the "need to stop"? Are you just cutting me off before I go too far, or has someone else been making comments along those lines and I just haven't noticed them?

>[ ]…There’s questions I need answered.

You stare at the papers as your teeth grit. There’s an implication here- an implication that makes something deep in your chest twist into something foul.

Norman Osborn.

CEO of Oscorp- who is in charge of Alistair Smythe. Who was after what you father and Carl -Carl Brock no doubt, were working on.

You want to go to Norman Osborn’s house and throttle the man, make him hurt until he tells you what you want him to, until he gives you the answers you desire.

But, instantly, your temper chills. No, your parents, Aunt and Uncle taught you better than that. Raised you better. Not to mention, you couldn’t do that to Harry. And you’d ruin your own future. There’s nothing Peter Parker can do here.

God, I hope it doesn't suddenly put the computer in the fritz or something.

Well damn. I now have multiple plans for a future scenario with this revelation...

>Eddie Brock
His parents were also killed in the same "accident" as Peter's parents, if I assume correctly?
Then, we might be able to work with him in investigating the circumstances of both their parents' death and Oscorps involvement.

The problem here is setting off Eddie's own death-flag or super villainy rise once he's down this path.

>Harry Osborn
If he's sufficiently alienated from his father, how savvy would he be in instigating a company wide takeover, after the revelation on Norman's closet full of skeletons?

Of course, the problem here is Norman being way more savvy than his son and his friends. Not to mention some lingering sense of trying to get the approval of his father.

Hard Drive time

We should be SUPER-techie given this is modern teenage spiderman, and computational effort should at least distract us, if not be somewhat meditative.

That, and delaying whatever shock the hard drive provides isn't doing us any favors.

BUT, when we do the hard drive, we will be paranoid due to the Osborne mention and shady language, and thus only do so AFTER physically unplugging the computer, and popping out the networking card so it's all on-system.
