Some odd robberies and the Hobgoblin’s equipment gone missing, but nobody’s used it. Yet.Still, while things are quiet, it’s best to get to work on pressing issues. Such as the hard drive your father left behind. The videos are mostly his discussions on the different blueprints he left behind as he talks to you over the video. You’ve spent many a late night, such as last night, working on it until you collapsed from exhaustion. Still, there are secrets in this thing that are left hidden.Until this morning.Blearily opening your eyes on Thanksgiving morning, you quickly blink back the crud from your eyes as you stare at the words on the screen.DECRYPTION COMPLETE.Your heart skips a beat as you stare at the words before hitting enter, the screen changing to videos and images- there’s a more than a few images your father had of him, you and your mother. Moreoever, a decent amount of the thumbnails for your father’s videos show him looking rather disheveled. Glancing at the clock, you see that it is nine in the morning.However, today is Thanksgiving- normally things are pretty quiet- you, Aunt May, Uncle Ben, and Miss Anna Watson. But you’ve noticed Aunt May buying up lots of food to prepare- much more than usual. She’s either making sure there’s lots of leftovers of you’re having more guests than normal.>1/?
>>28970923You might have an hour or two to do things before you’re roped into helping prepare for dinner and guests. You glance in the mirror nearby- your hair’s disheveled and your eyes are somewhat bloodshot.While a nap sounds lovely and you’d rather just spend forever with this hard drive, its probably best to pack it away. Spending a few moments, you set the computer back to normal and hide anything that relates to your secret activities. Yawning, you quickly head upstairs and greet Uncle Ben and Stella- Aunt May is over at the Watsons for the moment. You take a moment to see that Uncle Ben is showing her his Bob Ross VHS again before you head upstairs to freshen up- watching that man is a deathtrap to being awake to you right now. Grabbing a shower and trying to make yourself not look like death warmed over, you succeed in merely looking like you’re somewhat tired. Heading back downstairs in clean clothes, you glance at the clock- it’s just past nine-thirty. There’s some decorations up here and there, but things haven’t been finished- since you normally use the dining table for thanksgiving, it usually isn’t bothered with, however as there will (probably) be more guests, you might as well try to help out.Uncle Ben waves at you over as you sit down. “Good thing you’re up, sport. May’d have a cow if you’re still sleeping. Anyway, we need to assemble the larger dining table, so we’ll have to grab it from the garage.”>2/?
>>28970936“Sounds good!”It takes a little bit of time as you help your uncle dust off and assemble the table in the cleared area of the living room before chairs are placed down- according to your uncle there needs to be twelve chairs in total. When the two of you have finally set up the table, you smile in nostalgia.This table used to be used every Thanksgiving- you remember your father and Uncle Ben always dragging it out and assembling it as you’d wait around to hang out with Eddie- he was older but he always tolerated you being around considering the holiday. Brushing your hands off, you smile at the table- it’s nice to see it used again, it hadn’t been used again since your parent’s deaths.Your Uncle has a melancholic expression as he sits back down and stares at the table- Stella’s looking at the both of you, a somewhat lost expression on her face. “What’s with the table?”Your uncle ruffles her hair as his normally jolly smile returns. “Well, Stella, this table’s an old Parker Family tradition The men would set up everything, the kids would play together, and the women-folk of the Parkers would kick the men out of the kitchen and threaten us with giant spoons if we entered.”The two of you reflect in bittersweet memories before Ben claps his hands to destroy the mood. “Well then, everything’s set up, barring silverware, so let’s go ahead and watch some television, alright?”Turning on television in hopes of seeing some thanksgiving programming, your uncle begins to flip channels, settling on the news for a few moments. This one’s bugle affiliated as you see discussion of whether or not a Spider-man balloon would show up, considering your minor celebrity status, which leads into discussions of the ‘Scarlet Spider’ as the Bugle refers to the few, very blurry images of Gwen in costume->3/?
>>28970936here Cos, have a comics
>>28970956Interestingly enough, there was an interesting division of terms- unlike when you introduced yourself, Gwen had no such luck for an identity. Jameson, alliterative and catchy as his goal, came up with the ‘Scarlet Spider,’ while their rival insists on ‘Spider-girl.’ Actually, when you asked her on it, Gwen admitted she’s pretty embarrassed by both, but she admitted she’d rather not be referred to as ‘girl’ when she’s almost an adult. You’ve been sitting and explaining things about thanksgiving during the news, but it seems like your Aunt has returned in the meantime. Looking over at the table, she seems almost about to cry before wiping at her eyes and heading towards the kitchen.“The guests will be here starting at around noon, everyone. Anna and Mary Jane will be helping me, but they’ll be coming in from out back.”She pauses and stares sternly at you and Uncle Ben. “You two know the rule, so if you enter the kitchen before dinner you’re eating out on the porch.”Admonished, the two of you quickly look to see what else is on before you stop your Uncle.“Wait- the previous channel!”You freeze as ‘Stark Press Conference’ is on the news, there’s a man in the suit speaking as Tony Stark waits next to him.“-and now, Mr. Stark has prepared a statement. He will not be taking questions, thank you.”He steps off to the side as Tony Stark walks in front of the microphones on the podium. “First of all, I’d like to apologize for delaying your thanksgiving, I’m sure the rest of you all have families you’d like to be with. Anyway, Been a while since I was in front of you. I figure I'll stick to the cards this time.”He clears his throat as he taps some note cards before looking down at them before looking back at the reporters.“There's been speculation that I was involved in the events that occurred on the freeway and the rooftop…”>4/?
>>28970977A female report stands up as attention focuses on her. “I'm sorry, Mr. Stark, but do youhonestly expect us to believe that that was a bodyguard in a suit that conveniently appeared, - despite the fact that you…”Stark raises a hand to cut her off.“- I know that it's confusing. It is one thing to question the officialstory, and another thing entirely to make wild accusations, or insinuate that I'm a superhero.”The report smirks. “I never said that you were a superhero.”Stark looks surprised for a moment before he tries to regain ground. “Didn't? Well, good, because that would be outlandish and… fantastic.”Stark’s trying to regain his momentum, but he’s stumbling bad.“I'm just not the hero type. Clearly. With this laundry list of character defects, all the mistakes I've made-largely public…”The man nest to him leans in and whispers to Stark for a moment before moving back as Stark takes a deep breath.“Yeah, okay. Yeah.”He looks down at his cards, prepared to read them, but you notice his hesitation. There’s something that’s keeping him from reading them.“The truth is…”He grimaces as you lean forward. Stark looks at the card before tossing them over his shoulder.“I am Iron Man.”>5/6
>>28970995You stare at the TV as the press conference is quickly ended as reporters cut back to studio and discuss- images of two robots- one large, imposing and silver against another humanoid one that’s red and gold as there’s scattered footage of them fighting before one image of Stark Industry’s arc reactor blowing sky high.Even the commentators are still reeling as news updates itself as there’s an image of Tony Stark from the conference just now alongside the red and gold robot. Or armor.Iron Man.Tony Stark has a robot suit.To your side, you notice that Uncle Ben let’s out an impressed whistle.You, however, are having a brain crash. Firstly from nerding out. OHMYGODTONYSTARKMADEPOWERARMORYou might have made some crazy or excited sounds. Hopefully not.Then you take a moment as the engineer in you takes control. How the hell did that even work? No, seriously, the amount of sustained calculations for flight and other programs has to be insanely complicated. Not to mention for that small and compact of a design, how is it even powered? There’s also the fact of how exactly is it flying there?You don’t know.But goddamn it, you need to.You find yourself downstairs moments later- the in between lacks relevance due to its lack of science- and look up videos of ‘Iron Man’ as you try to work out how the fuck he’s doing this. There’s no obvious areas for a backpack, he’s apparently got flight because of emitters in his hands and feet (and chest?) that provide thrust but you’re still not sure how the fuck he powers that thing. Or gets it to work.You sit down there in the basement, trying to figure this out. There’s some sort of noise, drawing you from figuring this puzzle out.>[ ] Disregard noise, acquire answers>[ ] Mumble back that you’ll be there in a minute>[ ] ….reluctantly put your notes away>[ ] Head upstairs, keep working.>[ ] Write in

Rolled 9Let's see how dice gods favor this thread
>>28971020>reluctantly put notes away, we are summoned.Also, SPECTACULAR SPECTACULAR SPIDER-THREADsomeone else post the video, I am on my phone.
As much I would like to star to work on Iron Spider suit Im sure the social obligation are kind of important right now, also Peter spend last few weeks cracking the hard drive so it would be a nice change of pace (for him) to just have some family time.

>>28971265Thank you kindly.
Rolled 2>>28971291Roll to resist squeeing out
Didn't we have a blueprint for the Arc reactor on the harddrive?Also, we should back the hard drive up, several times.
>>28971291Thats going to be bit tough because he lives in Southern California right now. Just wait for him to move in NY.>>28971317Yes, for the giant one from 40's/50's
>>28970923Hey Cos, good to see you. Been getting your rest? Did you see the last Spock? Spock gained control of the Venom Symbiote within two pages, and appearantly Flash will die without it. It's all written very bad.
>>28971332Oh, right
>>28971332Stark Towers is in New York
>>28971317like have a roomful of hard drives ready just in case?
>>28971390Well, maybe not that many, but 2 backups might be good.My fucking harddrive just died
>>28971349...Yeah. I read it.RAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
I know people have been anal about doing things with DOOM, but when Christmas hits can we go and see if DOOM would be willing to throw an event at the Embassy? Mainly because I want this to happen. SO GODDAMN MUCH.
>>28971453No.
>>28971446Yeah. The ONLY good thing about the issue was that the Symbiote realized he wasn't Peter. Which means that when Flash gets it back, Flash will know too unless Slott shits that up too.
>>28971317>>28971390>>28971414Actually we should NOT do a backup yet.With all the security on it, there might be protocols to wipe its contents if copying was attempted. We'll need to analyse it first.
>>28971446shii shiii, we all know this pain, lets hope it will end soon for these who dont know there is spoiler for ya
>>28971473I didn't mean right away, but we should definitely do it sooner rather than later. Then find a good place to hide the backup too
>>28971486Heh.
>>28971349WhatWhy are they doing thisHave they just completely stopped giving a shit now?
>>28971469>implying the Avengers aren't just going to ignore him and then Flash fucks off into space.Its like the marvel universe has been huffing paint.
>>28971486Ya this was the issue to finally turn my off of Superior. Still hoping Cooper bites the bullet or becomes an interesting character though.Also: No way SpOcks rampage and weird behavior isn't getting blamed on the symbiote. Or, if it gets to go back, transferring SpOcks secret over to Flash.>>28971020>[ ] Mumble back that you’ll be there in a minute>[ ] ….reluctantly put your notes away>[ ] Head upstairs, keep working (in our head)>>28971453CHRISTMAS THROWDOWN
>writing
>>28971541I guess this is what happen when some people are allowed to put they self-insert-mary-sue in big leagues .My only hopes are that SpOck will get his ass handled to him by EVERYONE who is friend with Peter (yea i can dream)
>>28971600Everyone else already treats it as a joke. Hell, Spock showed up in Longshot Saved the Marvel Universe and the crazy old science dude in that got to take a shot at him.
>>28971584Or peter/goblin king manages to discover the symbiote and get it to bond with him again.then Spock dies from withdrawal and the totem goes into peter's new body
>>28971642Isn't Kaine the current totem dude? Which is why he has the wrist stingers and can summon the spiders and shit.
>>28971654then where are SpOck's power's coming from?
>>28971654Yeah, Kaine is deep into the Spider-Totem after he took Pete's place doing...things... during Spider-Island.
>>28971600No, it's just going to be suffering all the way down.Peter will get his body back, but everyone will hate him because of SpOck. And he will be miserable forever because nothing good is allowed to happen to Peter Parker.
>>28971642Goblin is not Peter; this has been made clear several times throughout the book. If that turns out to be the case it will be one of the largest ass pulls I've seen in comics in the past decade.
>>28971020DISREGARD NOISE, ACQUIRE POWER SUIT!
>>28971654I wonder when we'll get back to the magic stuff.Pic slightly related.
Looks like someone is building a Peter Parker LMD over in Deadpool this week...
>>28971641>Everyone else already treats it as a joke>any magic/aura readers didn't feel any change in his soul/mind/whatever>a person who constantly reads people minds for shit and giggles refuses to read Spock because >muh privacyehh, this whole thing left me so upset about SM franchisee just going down and down each year. I just want to this crazy ride to endIt doesn't help that everybody except slott are able to at least make Spock look like not completely jackass
>>28971760He IS a complete jackass.
>>28971693Speaking of SpOck, Scarlet Spider's tag line is more appropriate for him. You know because he can get away with murder and terrorism.
>>28971780sometimes he is a (tiny bit) enjoyable...as long slott is not involved
>>28971826I like Slott's story. I'd rather have Peter Parker retired than dead, but a (largely failed so far) redemption attempt by Ock is pretty entertaining.
>>28971693Wait, how did Peter lose the totem? Because if he still had it, wouldn't he reincarnate again with more powers?I'm still waiting for my Spider Totem Arc II: Magic versus Science!
>>28971981... Which story is the redemption attempt again? the one where he murders spiderman?
>>28971981The attempt's gotten repetitive and Slott seems more interested in going on about how much better Ock is than actually getting him to properly redeem himself. The only way I could like this is if it all came blowing up in SpOck's face and he get's smacked down hard for his bullshit.
>>28972008...he didn't lose the Totem, Kaine is just deeper into the Totem right now. There can be more than one foci for the Totem. Ezekiel, Kaine, Peter, Anya, etc.
>>28972059Then why hasn't Peter Reincarnated under a bridge or something yet?
>>[X] Mumble back that you’ll be there in a minute>>[X] ….reluctantly put your notes awayGuys, it thanksgiving time. Let put away the notes and do this LATER.When we have eaten and spend time with family.LATER, we go full crazy science.
>>28972059Wait, What are the other spider totems doing during this? and for that matter Madame Web?
>>28972077Because he isn't technically dead, his psyche is suppressed inside of his proper body while Ock is at the helm.
>>28972077Because Spock has overwritten him in the totem, and he's basically been shoved in the mental basement and locked inside.
>>28972055>Slott seems more interested in going on about how much better Ock isThen you haven't really been paying attention very well, because it has been doing nothing BUT blow up in his face so far in the story. Every action he's taken has sacrificed the future for the immediate perception that he's doing something.
>>28972102I believe Madame Web is still comatose and the rest either don't know or that he's a dick.
>>28972102The original Madame Webb is dead, the new one was in a coma until recently.
You reluctantly close up the notebook you’re writing in and put it into the desk drawer before closing out the internet. You look longingly back at the work you were doing before heading upstairs.Stupid responsibility.Heading on up, you close the basement door behind you as you sit down next to Stella, who pokes you cautiously. “You back to normal? Uncle Ben said that you went into ‘crazy nerd mode’ again.”You pause and look over at your uncle. “What? It’s true.”You sigh before shaking your head and trying not to focus on science. There’s family stuff to do. Even if you would really, REALLY like to be deciphering the mysteries of power armor. The doorbell rings as you get up to answer it, you see that it’s Eddie.He seems a bit under the weather, but gives you a smile. “Hey, Pete. How are you?”The two of you sit down and begin making small talk after you introduce Stella. Seems like Eddie’s been working hard on investigating Cassidy ever since he was caught, along with any hobgoblin leads. However, while he won’t tell you anything on Cassidy, he does inform you one thing about the Hobgoblin. “Seems like that the suspect was a kid around your age, but the police won’t say anything more. The feds are involved too, whatever’s going on it completely top secret. Can’t tell anything more because that’s all I ‘know.’”He looks around for a moment as he lets out nostalgic smile. “I remember Thanksgivings. They were a lot of fun. Before..”He shakes his head. “Well, regardless, you’re about to graduate, right? Where have you looked into?”“Well, I was thinking of going to ESU, but I’ve also applied to several others in the area. Norman Osborn did invite me to work as Oscorp though.”Eddie nods his head. “Makes sense. You’re damn smart- always were, and Osborn’s an old friend of your family.”>[ ]Wait, what?>[ ]Make small talk until others arrive>[ ]Distract Eddie with Stella>[ ]Write in
>>28972136It's not blowing up in his face, it's going to blow up in peter's when he eventually gets his body back
>>28972136And he is completely unaware of it. Furthermore, it's going to end up as Peter's problem over his.I want him to be hit with a metric ton of self-awareness for his stupidity.
>>28972102During Spock or during Spider-Island?Everyone's busy.Kaine is in in Texas.Anya was involved with Avengers AcademyEzekiel is Dead, again, Mobus I think.Webb, I think she's letting this ride out for important purposes.
>>28972158>[X]Make small talk until others arrive
>>28972102What is Anasi the god of spiders and guy who observes the whole "web of life" doing? What happened to the Galactic Legion of Spidermen? What happened to that thing where if Spiderman kills anyone in cold blood, his life falls apart due to some stupid "is the center of the web" as predicted by madame Web? I've been waiting for that to kick in since SpOck killed Massacre.

>>28972158>[ ]Make small talk until others arriveIt's been a while since we've seen Eddie. I'd imagine there's some catching up to do.Like, did Eddie at least catch a break when JJJ tried to run for the mayoral office? Or was he doubly pissed once he's back with the Bugle?Also, Tony Stark's media reveal. How's the Bugle covering that angle?
>>28972158>Make small talk until others arrive, "Really, I'm considering ultimately going into business for myself after school. Change the world?"
>>28972296Talking about Stark sounds like a good plan. Maybe mention we'd be more interested in working at Stark's over Oscorp.
>>28972262This.
>>28972188No ideaThey don't really exist, it was a jokeAnd he lost his job, his credibility, his friends, his allies, his family can't stand him, his enemies grow more powerful by the day, and he's in debt up to his eyeballs thanks to a business he doesn't have the time to properly manage. So I'd say his life isn't doing so well.

>>28972358Can't wait for Pete to come back and reap in all that Good ol' Parker Luck.
>>28972396It's been less than a day
>>28972358And of course after Peter finally gets his body back, he'll be the one to pay the price of it all instead of Ock.
>>28972158>[X]Wait, what?>[X]Make small talk until others arrive
>>28972296I too would like to know the answer to those questions.Also if we could find out how the media interpreted the phone booth incident, that'd be swell.
>yfw this is how Superior ends
>>28972358I'd feel happier about that if it wasn;t going to land on Peter's feet.Also, you people seem to know stuff.How is Spiderman 2099 still existing?Doesn't Loki still owe Peter a favor for helping him deal with some guy who was bodyjacking some other guy, and he's properly alive again now?
>>28972552>How is Spiderman 2099 still existing?What do you mean?
>>28972552No, word from Editorial that Peter Cashed that in already, Loki helped him move. It keeps getting posted every other thread or so.
>>28972603What
>>28972552Time is too broken to care.You can blame Wolverine and Beast for that one.>>28970923
>>28972603Someone asked on Twitter if Loki still owed Peter that favor, and they tweeted back that Loki helped Peter move, and the favor was cashed in.
>>28972552>Doesn't Loki still owe Peter a favor for helping him deal with some guy who was bodyjacking some other guy, and he's properly alive again now?You expect Loki of all people to honor his agreements?

>>28972878They already have, they already have. Other characters have even commented on it in the comic it happens in.
>>28972893The one on the left is from the Aladdin show. Mirage was pretty boss.Don't know about the other one, though.
>>28972893It's Eris (goddess of chaos) from Billy and Mandy and Mirage (evil catlady sorceress) from the Aladdin TV seriesThere's an archive of them that was posted a while ago, but I don't want to derail so go ask them for it.
>>28972929... I'd like to see her in Skull Girls.
>>28973112Maybe, but no. There are plenty of better canon characters left to get in once the world stops shitting on that company. Especially since they're only making money off of t-shirt sales, but that's neither here nor there.
I'm disappointed Cos didn't go with us asking Ben his thought on these costumed vigilantes and Tony Stark.Also, I'm home from work. PPQ yay!
>>28973175We can ask over Thanksgiving dinner if not sooner. It's a hot topic, don't forget.
>>28973175If he had any thoughts on it, I'm sure he would have shared them when Tony Blew his load on the news.
>>28973221He whistled, possibly impressed.
Guys, it's official, according to Marvel's Twitter account. Paul Rudd is Ant Man
>>28972497goddamn Aunt May is scary
>>28973327Which one, that's the question.
>>28973327We know. And we all know it ends with Mac and Me.>>28973336You don't fuck with May. This is a universal standard.>>28973315>Tony impressed with Tonys blown load
“Wait. What?”Eddie Nods. “You might not remember but Norman Osborn and his family used to come over, but stopped when Oscorp began making it big, as they were too busy. Don’t know the details myself though.”Uncle Ben leans in, taking a drink of his eggnog. “Well, allow me to explain. Norman Osborn’s wife Emily was a friend of your father’s through college. Everyone thought they’d hit it off, too. But your father met Mary and well, it was love at first sight. He still kept in contact with her, and eventually she met Norman, who was a nobody at the time as Oscorp had yet to exist.”“They used to always come over for Thankgiving and other Holidays, but as business built up and your fathers refrained from going up with them they saw less and less of each other, until it was eventually only the Brocks and Parkers coming.”Uncle Ben turns back to the television as you and Eddie look a bit surprised. “Well, that’s more than I knew.”Your eyes widen as you remember. “Oh, right. So, what’s the Bugle’s views on Stark’s announcements, by the way?”Eddie grimaces as he pulls out a handkerchief and coughs into it before pocketing it again, his face tired and a bit annoyed. “Please don’t bring up work, Peter. Besides, I’ve been on sick leave for the past few days, so I’ve been kept out of the office loops. Jonah insisted on it, told me ‘Spend the holiday with Family, Brock! If I catch you at work, you won‘t like the tongue-lashing I give you!’”He coughs into his handkerchief again. “You alright, Eddie?” He just waves you off. “Just a cold, Pete. Don’t worry.”You distract him with Stella and some small talk before the door rings again. Getting up, you open it to see Captain George Stacy standing there in a semi-formal outfit along with Gwen who is in a sweater and black pants looking somewhat uncomfortable to be there.>[ ] …Hello?>[ ] Call for Uncle Ben>[ ]Invite them in.>[ ] Write in

>>28973524She said she couldn't come didn't she?
>>28973545She did. She has "plans." I wonder who she's robbing.
>>28973545She said she had other plans. She could have been invited by our aunt and uncle.Or, she could be investigating Oscorp because no one will be there today.
>>28973495>Deer in headlightsYou obviously don't know what this means
>>28973545wasn't that Felicia?
>>28973545She was makings some not so subtle allusions to having something planned for today.
>>28973524She said she had other plans... what that means we still don't know, but judging by the way she said it, it's something at least mildly devious.
>>28973545When we asked her she smiled that adorable sly 'I know something you don't know' smile and said she's made other plans...Watch, those plans...those plans are already here.Mark my word, either disguised as her father or disguised as Felix.Spaghetti ensues.
>>28973574Pause for a moment wide eyed and frozen while something that is going to impact us at high speed is barreling straight for us.
>>28973594>she comes as Stacys dad
>>28973622>looking somewhat uncomfortableYeah, okay.
>>28973545One of the times we talked to Eddie I'm pretty sure we told him we were interested in Gwen. Felicia making a surprise appearance would make the awkwardness complete.
>>28973668Times change, he'd understand
>>28973594She will come disguised as DOOMRichards will come disguised as DOOM.DOOM will come as DOOMself.Also DOOM will bring his Doombots.
>>28973668Interested but didnt go anywhere in the end.Hope he doesnt egg on too much.
>>28973730Oh god. Thanksgiving is doomed
>>28973730Getting a major "You've walked into the wrong neighborhood" vibe. I like it.
>>28973730lovely
>>28973761You mean DOOMed?
>>28973787>DOOMedCapitals are important.
I wonder who she went with to watch Dr Strange's show in the end...
>>28973835No one since she was studying cat blood.If she did; it was probably with her dad.
>>28973835 Ben Reilly
>>28973835Nobody
>>28973835I hope her dad, that'd be pretty cool.Wish I could go see a wizard with my 'pa...
>>28973835I don't really.... want to think about that.Too much shit happened. We thought we could be together, but it worked out another way mostly due to her stalker's activity and her dad's surveillance.Doesn't make me feel better though. Nor does it Peter.
I feel kinda bad for Gwyn
>>28973911We all do, but we made our bed...and it was Felicia's bed...and then she was a cat.
>>28973903We can still wind up with Gwen. If Felicia is starting up cat burgling again, we're in for a monster of a fight.
>>28973903>but it worked out another way mostly due to her stalker's activity and her dad's surveillance.More like you all changed your mind. At least we made it clear now
>>28973911We all feel bad for Gwen, shes a really nice girl deserving of a great guy.But the fully loaded freight train that is Felicia Hardy was just too much, there isn't a thing we could do.
>>28973933Kinky
>>28973911Same but it was felicia made an offer we couldnt refuse.
>>28973383>He coughs into his handkerchief again. “You alright, Eddie?” >He just waves you off. “Just a cold, Pete. Don’t worry.”I just belatedly realized. Peter and Stella are pretty much inoculated from diseases in the dystopian future.We may have the secrets to the cure for the common cold running in our veins.Or we're carrying inert deadly diseases from the future ready to infect unsuspecting friends and family.
>>28973903(copypasta from previous thread)>And now our relationship is just various levels of awkward uncomfortableness where neither of us has really done anything wrong per say, and yet a truly staggering amount of mistakes have been made.Also I hope once the Avengers/Super Friends/whatver hero organisation that will started we will be in better position than this
>>28973949I think she said something like "From now on I'll only steal from those that REALLY deserve it,"Relationships can break for other reasons, lord knows I have seen a few bad breakups.
>>28973949Naw, fuck that. Staying team cat
>>28973949But I like Felicia. She's been a God-tier waifu, and we have no reason to believe she's going back on her word.
>>28973949I don't think we'll be immediately breaking up with Felicia anytime soon.
>>28973984Nah, the doktor knows better, especially since we told her.If there is diseases, she would have fix it already.
>>28973984How exactly would the viruses get revived?
>>28973984Didn't Sue run some blood samples on us recently?Pretty sure she would have caught any viruses or bacteria. Also We only just met Eddie again for the first time in weeks.
>>28973984That's not how vaccines work.It's the same reason people who get flu shots don't give the flu to everyone who hasn't gotten the shot.
I think we really owe Gwyn an apology, or that we should at least talk to clear the air
>>28973984Peter was living a month with his elderly uncle and aunt and they seem to be alight . Also doktor give us future medicine from future so it should be fine
>>28974027We do, but not right now.
>>28974027I think we've already apologized.More than once.
>>28974009Shit, I let it unfinished. We told her we were from the future and we going back. She will not let super diseases into the past.>>28974027We already did that in the time skip. Read the archives.
>>28974046Yeah, she said she just needed space.
>>28974046I remember one at the incident but it was rather untimely
>>28974063>Needs space>Invited to ThanksgivingThanks, Aunt May!
>>28974079See >>28974062
>>28974082It's been a month.
>>28974082And felicia is not going to hold back for her sake.We'll be lucky if she doesnt 'ihavetogo'.
>>28974093I saw.
>>28974105I don't think she's coming. She's going to be knocking over a department store for putting up Christmas decorations before Thanksgiving.
>>28974140Truly a noble soul. She just gets better and better.
>>28974140That's not her style at all.She'd steal all the Hello Kitty merch
>>28974082It's been weeks, shut up.
>>28974140If she was going to steal shit after she promised she wouldn't anymore she wouldn't have made it so ridiculously obvious to us that she was up to something.She wants us to anticipate whatever she has planned.
>>28974169Yeah, girls tend to get over things pretty quickly.
>>28974140As much as I think that such counts as REALLY deserving it...no...she's got something planned. SOMETHING planned.Relationship Shadowruns, shadowruns for good things.
>>28974195She's going to steal the Iron Man suit.It will be her christmas gift to Peter.
>>28974195She's planning on having Peter over for a weekend where they won't be leaving the bedroom, except for food and bathroom breaks?
I've figured out how to fix things with Gwen, we give her one of our clones.
>>28974208What a wonderful girlfriend
>>28974192How much fucking longer do you think it's going to take, then? We were never even her boyfriend. We just said we liked her. Not even love. Like. She'll get over it. She's a big girl.
>>28974208Nah she'll get us a spider statue from a strange store.
>>28974208If that were to actually happen, we'd need to find her a diamond ring and get down on one knee pronto.>>28974262Man-Spider here we come!
>>28974249>We just said we liked her. Not even love. Like.Yes we did
>>28974262It gives everyone else spider powersSpider-Island time?
>>28974275Agreed anon, agreed.
OH SHIT I JUST REALIZED WHATS GOING TO HAPPEN.>Thanksgiving>Girlfriend planing something>Mary Jane not hot in the universe>Plot threadsDON'T YOU SEE! FELICIA IS GOING TO BE OUR "GWEN STACY".
>>28974277>said we liked her. Not even love. Like.>Yes we didthread 9, you welcome>“Gwen, I’m not going to let the girl I like deal with this all alone.”
>>28974249How do you know she wasn't carrying a torch for us for a while before we got up the courage to confess to her?
>>28974332Don't even joke about that, you motherfucker.
>>28974208Actually, I'm suspecting her to more likely grab Stane's shares in Stark Industries, now that they're back on the market and all.
>>28974352She did. There was comments about her staring at us that we flopped fellowship rolls on calling he rout on.
>>28974368Ooh Good idea!Spider-Man loudly lands on the window of Stark Tower disturbing Stark"What do you want?""Hey now, don't talk that way to the largest shareholder in your company."CAPTCHA: thusmj only
>"Lets cut to the chase ms Hardy. What are your intentions with Peter?">"Mrs. Parker, my intentions are no less noble than your's when you met your husband>*May flashes back to the Trouble miniseries>"Get. Out."
>>28974368Oooh, i could totally see our wonderful, brilliant girlfriend pouncing on such an opportunity.
>>28974368That's... I don't think Felicia has that much money.If anything I would have expected Oscorp to nab it... although the fact that Stark won't make weapons again would be a turn off to him since that's his companies focus... buuuuuuut if Stark's company is publicly traded and ownership is ever over 50% out of his control a board can oust him
>>28974410>Oh, so you're Peter Parker?A+ plan
>>28974353Gwen Stacy always dies, but in this world Gwen isn't "Gwen Stacy, Peter's first love", while there is a crush that was aborted early on. Instead we have FELICIA as the Gwen Stacy. Which means at one point or another Felicia will somehow die. Though it might just be permanent mind wipe.
>>28974332Could have been averted if we'd just made her the grappling bracers. Oh, wait, no. She's secretly stealing the symbiote for us for Christmas, we still have time.
>>28974470Hey man. Fuck you. Don't joke about that
You smile and try too look like you know what you’re doing as you step aside. Captain Stacy’s a friend of your uncle, so not surprising he’d be invited over if they’re doing something big. Captain Stacy walk in as you call over to your Uncle. “Uncle Ben, Captain Stacy is here!” Faster than you’d expect of him, Uncle Ben has picked up a cooler and wrapped an arm around his shoulders. “Hey, George. Good to see you. Remember that bet you made?”George Stacy’s face pales as he quietly and horrified tries to struggle. “Please no.”But you see Uncle Ben dragging Captain Stacy off into his (still unfinished but it’ll be done one day) rec room as you think you see the police captain consider biting off his own arm. He quietly whispers that you and Gwen for you to save him.You wave sadly as he’s dragged out of sight, leaving a baffled Gwen there.Stella, who you’ve briefed on Gwen not actually being Carnage is starring impassively at her. Eddie seems to be calling someone on the phone.>[ ] Awkward Silence>[ ] So… How about that Iron Man?>[ ] Retreat to basement, science more>[ ]Introduce her to Stella>[ ] Talk about something (write in)>[ ] Write in
>>28974464She doesn't have to buy -all- the shares, ya know.>>28974439So wait, May just wanted a quick fuck when she first met Ben? IS that what you're implying?
>>28974332Fuck you.Fuck you with a god damn rake good sir.
>>28974470Or, since Uncle Ben is alive and JJJ actually thinks Spidey is an okay guy, this quest diverges enough from Marvel canon to not need to do that.

>>28974538Peter had people looking into finding her.
>>28974527Should we use two of our 4 weeks that we'll be skipping past before Christmas?OH! And I wonder what will happen for New Years Day?
>>28974538We've been looking into where the Doktor is and haven't found her yet.
>>28974556Yeah, missed that then. Thank you.

>>28974527I back this idea. Maybe we can do it as a Christmas Gift.
>>28974544That's still an easy trail to follow.
>>28974482>[ ] So… How about that Iron Man?>[ ]Introduce her to Stella

>>28974581Then disregard. Only doing it for fun after all.>>28974573Hmm...This order is better. Maybe we should also find the time to tell her to forgo the blood samples because we have someone who could look over us.
>>28974567It would certainly ease the awkwardness to talk about a mutual interest.>>28974575I actually really, really like this idea. Gives her more utility and survivability, allowing her to help us out with hero-ing and such. Not every invention has to be for us and us only.And we'll make it ONLY MILDLY cursed
>>28974573So we got 3 spots left right? What if Peter's parents old friend Nick Fury came for a visit?
>>28974557We work on it after the timeskip and have to make rolls?
>>28974527>>28974575Yes; like I've been saying.
>>28974602If you got a trail, it's probably better not to let anyone know of its existence in the first place. Don't get me wrong, I love Tony and I don't think he'd fuck us over but still, I'd rather not risk it
>>28974527To bad we won't be able to stop it because it is happening TONIGHT she "has plans" remember?
How about we take the Thanksgiving to being a good host and keep entertaining our guests. That would mean talking to Gwen about current life events, future plans, watching a game with Eddie, setting a Smash Bros game with Eddie, Gwen, MJ, Stella and us, watching the game with Eddie?
>>28974482> introduce her to stella.> talk about somethingWhat school is she applying to?
>>28974613But then it can't be a Christmas gift... and it would make her so much more happy than some dumb cat-themed brand-name item.
>>28974612I was thinking Eddie's girlfriend might show up, Felicia may still show up, and the Osbournes. Fury would be interesting though.
>>28974624You're just being overly paranoid
>>28974598now you're just fucking around
>>28974482>[ ] So… How about that Iron Man?>[ ]Introduce her to Stella"Tony Stark made POWER ARMOR, that's now an actual thing. Now look at this adorable little girl, she is now my adoptive little sister."

>>28974612Why would he come over for a visit? "I just felt like seeing you guys"?
>>28974624You're being paranoid about the wrong thing. Her plans involve Peter.
>>28974667*Stares at Peter the whole time without saying anything*
>>28974650I hope Stella isn't going to freak out and smack her with magic chains
>>28974667he's nick fury, he can do whatever he wants to.
>>28974667This is Nick Fury. He doesn't explain himself to us.
>>28974647Damn it man, you're on /tg/! You know the tropes as well as I do. What are the odds that something is going to happen to our girlfriend, while she is doing something alone, while we have a nice family dinner on a holiday?when it happens, I fucking called it.
>>28974689"Well, Mr. Fury, you certainly have an eye for details... I mean, eye, er, I..."
>>28974700I just woke up to say you need to fuck off
>>28974700Look you voiced your opinion and we read it. Please stop shoving down our throats. If something happens it happens. No point in freaking out until we have something to freak out to.
>>28974700We'll deal with it if and when it happens.

>>28974700Okay, really, fuck off now.
>>28974667>>28974689>>28974709"Maybe someday you'll work at Stark Industries with how much you like what they do, Peter.""Are you kidding? I'd give my right eye! I mean.... uh."

>>28975063I'm sorry, I'll stop.Please don't punish the rest of them.

>>28974959Is it really that bad? On a scale from 1-10 how bad is it? 1 in this scenario being the worst comic ever made. 10 being pretty awful but not as awful as everyone makes it out to be.
>>28975096He made a reference to The Pic That Must Not Be Mentioned.Now Uncle Ben is going to choke to death on stuffing.
>>28975063Okay now I'm terrified

You clear your throat uncomfortable as you lead her over to the couches. “Gwen, This is Stella. I think I’ve mentioned her?”Stella continues to stare flatly at Gwen, who pulls at the neck of her sweater with one hand and extends another. “Ah. Yes. Nice to meet you, Stella. I‘m Gwen.”Your sister figure slowly takes her hand and shakes it tightly with a slow careful movement, never breaking eye contact. “I’m aware.”Gwen takes her hand back, flexing it. There’s a tension between the two- even though Stella knows she’s not CARNAGE there’s a deliberate unfriendliness there, and Gwen’s still a bit apprehensive about meeting a half-child of a alien species from a future that no longer exists.You should step in. Clearing your throat, you get their attention.“So, Gwen… How about that Iron Man?”Gwen, seemingly grateful for a break into familiar territory sits down, adjusting her glasses. “Well honestly, its rather interesting. I’m curious on if it involves cybernetics, or not- Stark doesn’t seem to be a cyborg, but who knows.“Still though, I’m really curious as to how he gets it to work- I don’t see how such a compact form could do all of that without an internal battery-”The two of you talk back and forth about different ideas, but Gwen’s more biology focused so you sometimes loose her and vice-versa when discussing technology.When it clock hits about three and everyone’s all settled in, the doorbell rings one more time. Getting up to open the door, you see Norman and Harry Osborn standing there. Harry seems a bit displeased to be here.>[ ] …Hi, Mister Osborn>[ ] Uncle Ben?!>[ ] Come on in, won’t you?>[ ] Write in

>>28975852More likely with his dad.Btw, where did we stuff the oscorp tech we pilferred?
>>28975857Let's see the 3 Parkers, 1 Stella, 1 Eddie, 2 Stacys, and 2 Osborns. We still have 3 seats.
>>28975351Nothing much, but given Heracles exists. It wouldn't be out of the realm of possibility. And it's mostly due to weird jumps in logic on my part, but I only really wanted to move the conversation a little.My logic run down is as such: Arachne in some versions of the myth (the ones I learned as a kid) have her being turned into a spider as the reason spiders weave their webs. The reason she was turned into a spider was pissing off Athena goddess of weaving (and other crap, but not important to this) for either A.)Beating her in a competition. B.)Weaving inflammatory depictions of Athena into her tapestry. C.)Weaving various truths about how the gods abused man in the tapestry (Zeus and his raping). D.)All of the Above.Parker is clearly implicated to have some mystical connection to spiders (powerful too, given breaking it would have crushed Felicia's curse), and our recurring dreams where spiders try to talk to us. It could be that a connection to two ancient weavers through lineage and magic could have made the mutagenic properties of the spider bite have such bizarrely positive effects.>>28975775>[ ] …Hi, Mister Osborn>[ ] Write In"Hey Harry, you okay?"
>>28975852he and his father arent the best of friendsits to the point where its awkward when theyre togetherFuck i wish i spent more time with my dad
>>28975775Come on in, won't you?Uncle Ben?Play it cool guys.
Stop voting for bitching at Uncle Ben you fags, he doesn't know what happened
>>28975852 He wants his dad to stop liking us better than him. Also incoming job offer.
>>28975852His father drug him to the house of the kid that Harry believes Norman wishes where his son instead. Out of the blue.
>>28975873Gwen and Felicia are going to sit next to Peter, with Mary Jane in front of him. Stella will be at the kids table.Nobody will be happy.
>>28975857May, Ben, Peter, Stella, Eddie, Captain Stacy, Gwen, Norman, and Harry. So three more. Which means the Watsons and maybe Felicia.
1. Ben Parker2. May Parker3. Anna Watson4. Mary Jane Watson5. Peter Parker6. Stella Hardy? Othername?7. Eddie Brock8. Captain George Stacy9. Gwen Stacy10. Norman Osborn11. Harry Osborn12. ...either Felicia under some guise or another or Eddie's Girlfriend
>>289758802 Watsons as well.
>>28975879It gone
>>28975852It's definitely due to his dad, and their dysfunctional relationship. We've been hanging out and helping Harry study for finals, so I doubt it's us.
>>28975879Ask the guy who stole it after we stashed it.
>>28975852>wonder why Harry isn't happyReread the archives
>>28975885This.Just take it easy and talk to Harry.
>>28975906Yeah, that's my bet also. I don't think Harry really wants to be here with his dad. Maybe if it was just him he be better but this...
>>28975921Maybe a goblin knight.Goblin knights are cool
>>28975775Tell uncle ben the osborn's are here, say hi to harry and invite them both in. drag harry into the iron man convo
>>28975901Nick FuryPeter and Osborn be freaking the fuck out internally.
>>28975928No need. Slipped my mind really. I mean last we saw him (us not Peter of course) he went off to talk on the phone and then disappeared.
>>28975775>[ ] …Hi, Mister Osborn>[ ] Come on in, won’t you?Only these.
>>28975947"It's just like one of my Japanese animes!"
>>28975800>>28975964Yeah, drop the Uncle Ben. We will be an excellent host.
Also, after hearing Uncle Ben's story I have to say whatever happened between our parents and the Osborns is more complicated then we first thought. I definitely want to have a look at the hard-drive tonight after dinner and all guests are gone.
>>28975956"Alright, fellows. I know. You know. I know you know. And you know I know you know. But they don't know. And that's how we're going to keep it."
>>28975901#12 is Surprise DOOM!
>>28976012"Eye eye, sir... I mean, aye aye."
>>28976012Does Peter even know?
>>28976012No, he doesn't and that is what would make it HILARIOUS
I wouldn't be surprised if Osborn hadn't heard about Iron Man. Let's tell him.
>>28975901>#12Sue is already here. Nobody just realized it yet.
And so the games begin...
>>28976046If Nick Fury shows up, he knows. Osborn has showed up because he knows. And we know Parker knows.
>>28976009>more complicated then we first thoughtMost people realized it was more complicated since they were fucking spies m8>look at the hard-drive tonightEveryone wants to.>>28976012Don't stop staring
>>28976054I really don't want to roll the kind of Willpower check that's going to come from trying to hold a polite conversation with Norman-fucking-Osborne.Let's just try to not talk to him unless necessary.
>>28976067Peter Knows, but now he's not sure he knows. Maybe he thinks he should have watched the harddrive before coming up so then he would have known, but now who knows.
>>28976046"... suuuuuuuuuuuure?"
>>28976067Osborn was probably invited by May and/or Ben. As far as we know Osborn doesn't and there is no point being paranoid and assuming he does.
>>28976085You're really overblowing this entire thing
>>28975775>>[ ] …Hi, Mister Osborn>>[ ] Uncle Ben?!>>[ ] Come on in, won’t you?>>[ ] Write in"Harry! Stark have created and is piloting a real life mecha suit!"
>>28976012Reading this in Samuel L Jacksons voice is hilarious
>>28976099>As far as we know>no point being paranoid
>>28976103We had to roll a Willpower check the first time we talked to Harry after we found out what his father did.What do you think will happen?
>>28976099I dunno, we gotta be wondering why he's shown up at this Thanksgiving when he didn't come to any of the prior ones we remember.
>>28976111I'm picturing it in his Jewels persona, from Pulp Fiction. >>28976123It would be rude not to and he will want to talk to us. No avoiding it. We could have faked sick, but too late now.
>>28976123We've had a long time for it to settle in.
>>28976123We didn't go to his house and kill him even though he wants spider-man dead and caused the death of our parents.We have a silver tongue, we'll be fine
>>28976132He offered us a job. He's coming in person to try to nab us, knowing this would be the best chance he has before we apply to and enroll in a college.
>>28976132All I know is, this Thanksgiving table is going to be packed with people.Taking that three points in Fellowship might pay off sooner than we thought.
Despite being so rich, Harry always gets dealt a pretty shit hand. Are there any universes where he doesn't end up dead or suicidal or insane?
>>28976132He seems to like us more than his son and wants us to work for him. We've been over this for fucks sake
>>28976181One of my goals for this game is on making this universe one of them. Hell if Harry goes masked vigilante I want him inspired by anime.
>>28976181after Peter makes a deal with I can't believe its not Satan, Harry is alive with a kid.and then American Son happened and he lives with his family in Seattle (I think) under a new identity)
>>28976162So ramble about the importance of a broad base of education like we're a tour guide from some liberal arts collage, gotcha.
>>28976204Great idea
>>28976222"Harry, why do you keep leaving these comic strips around the house? You really need to clean up after yourself. I bet that Parker boy runs a tight ship."
>>28976204He'll get too ahead of himself very quickly.
>>28976271Probably. Whatever, as long as he's happy and alive really.
>>28976204With the sheer amount of allies we plan on making in this quest, I don't think we'll even need a Tesseract Nuke to take down the aliens this time around.
>>28976292He'll get his head eaten by a monster, most likely a symbiote. And peter will watch his dangling body fall to the ground.
>>28976320"Just like.... one of... uuuuuuugh."
>>28976292Finally, I will become the SUPERIOR Harry!
>>28976252Harry turns goblin with envy.
>>28976308That's part of the fun of AUs. Seeing different permutations of the characters from the 616 norm. As different personalities through different circumstances or choices, like this universe's MJ, or new out and out heroes, which is why I loved the idea of Gwen being the Golden Orb Weaver/Spinner. The fact that almost all AUs continue to stick close to 616 is disappointing when the multiverse is infinite.
>>28976365>Scarlet-Spider
>>28976329>Relax Peter, we won! There's no need to worry. After all, the good guys always win, just like in my->Harry man, you and your Chinese cartoo-
>>28976371That is nice having Gwen as this universe's Scarlet Spider.
>>28976365>The fact that almost all AUs continue to stick close to 616 is disappointing when the multiverse is infinite.No, that's what marks cohesion. Things are familiar, and events are very similar to ones that took place in other universes, but they happen differently enough that you never know how things will ultimately turn out.
>>28976320Thank you for spoiling that anon, even if it's not THE pic.
>>28976413Your welcome. I guess I could have just gone with Mumi too, but that's no fun.
>>28976413>retirementShe looks like a fucking teenager.
>>28976429animewhere everyone is under 20 and white
>>28976429She's 27
>>28976406I believe in the idea that the multiverse is infinite diversity in infinite combinations. While yes, you should use the same characters and so on, you don't need to hew too close to 616. Take this game. Things are very different from 616 while also having some similar concepts. I feel that's a strength.
>>28976456And she's retiring?
>>28976465By that same logic it can be exactly as different or similar as Cosgrove and we want it to be.
>>28976486This is true.
>>2897647027 is really old, for that universe. Although to be honest, I don't really remember that scene and it's probably from a side story where she does grow old enough to retire and they didn't want to create an entirely different sprite for that one scene.
>>28976486Yup.Or just ignore me. I'm weird. Commuter can vouch for that.
>>28976498Yea, that's not a scene from the main trilogy of VNs.
“Um, hello Mister Osborn, Harry. Nice to see you. Won’t you come in?”Norman gives you a smile as you step to the side to let them in as Harry continues to look disgruntled as he walks in. Norman looks around and lets out a sigh. “Would you like me to get my Uncle, Mister Osborn?”Norman Osborn pats your shoulder, chuckling cheerfully. “Peter, my boy. No need to be so formal. You’re practically an adult, so please, call me Norman.”He glances round. “Where is Ben, anyway?”You point over at the door to Uncle Ben’s Rec Room. “He’s in there talking with Captain Stacy Mi-Norman.”He gives you a smile as he heads over to the door. Pausing, he turns back. “Oh, did you hear about Tony Stark, Peter? I’d be interested in hearing your thoughts on his ‘Iron Man’ sometime.”Waving, he heads into the rec room. You see Eddie step outside for a moment on the phone, closing the door behind him. Leaving you, Gwen, Harry and Stella.Harry’s sitting down looking like he’d rather be anywhere else. >[ ]Talk with Harry (about what?)>[ ]Talk with Gwen(about what?)>[ ]Talk with Stella (about what?)>[ ]This is enough awkward for a lifetime.

>>28976635This too
>>28976556New idea, after a few minutes of talking with Harry, we call for aunt May if she can Spare MJ for a bit. Harry promised he'd at least speak with her.
>>28976635
>>28976659Hey here's an idea; lets NOT try to force someone Harry wasn't so hot on onto him when he's in a sour mood.
Shit, thank god Tony made his big reveal today or would have nothing to dispel the awkwardness.
>>28976637From the Issue #37.1 Peter only talked to him during they school time, so no there wasn't a hung around with Harry.
>>28976659>force harry to MJ when he's already angryfuck off
>>28976659Dude is in a bad enough mood. Playing that card now isn't going to improve it any.We'd be better off trying to introduce MJ to both our friends, and try to include her in our social circle a little more.
>>28976687I don't think he's angry...he's something, but it isn't angry. Angry carries hostility.
>>28976683Because the only time he wanted to hang out was for studying
>>28976694How about playing crazy eights?
>>28976683Uhh, no.We specifically tried to hang out with Harry, but he was so absorbed with his studying that all we could do is help him with that.
>>28976694>>28976687Fair point, but he'll be meeting her at the dinner table and after dinner mingling anyway.
>>28976694Too many people for her right now. And she's probably still stressed
sooo...the last seat? I secretly hope that will be Curt Connors who happen to be a old friend of Peters parents
>>28976850And why would he be there
>>28976850I just want to know what made this year in particular the year to invite everyone May and Ben's immediate circle of long-time acquaintances out of all other years.
>>28976873Maybe Stella. To try to give her a big Thanksgiving.
>>28976873Maybe because with Stella around they wanted her to experience a real Thanksgiving?
>>28976885That's stupid, then they would invite her dad or sister or brother, or someone related.Last spot might be Felicia dressed as Stellas dad
>>28976873Or perhaps because it wasn't that long ago that we received from May a letter from our mother. Maybe this was to try to get Peter to better know his parents through their associates.
>>28974482What was the bet they made?
>>28976897Suddenly Loki
>>28976897WUT? but her back story (that we share among normal people) is that she doesn't have any relatives except "Mr Hardy" family.
>>28976921I'm just going to let Cosgrove prove you wrong with the story.Just because there's a spot left doesn't mean anyone else is even coming.
>>28976897Last Spot is Felicia disguised as Mysterio, disguised as Chameleon, disguised as Morph, disguised as Mystique, disguised as Loki, disguised as Chris Evans.
>>28976923*call Felicia later that evening*"That was a great disguise you had as Stella's father.""Peter...I was scouting out Oscorp. I don't know who that was but it wasn't me."
>>28976956Whoa
>>28976956Disguised as Maxwell Smart in a terrible disguise.
>>28976951If I'm wrong I'm wrong. I enjoy what Cosgrove does so if he does joss me I am okay with that. It's just harmless speculation anyway..
>>28976976A terrible disguise of DOOM
>>28976923>>28976967We then freak the fuck out.SOMEONE KNOWS. Now WHO That what Peter be asking.And something else more importantly, HOW?
>>28977073Some idiot because we gave her an orphan background
>>28977153... we gave her the background that she's Felicia's sister.
“You alright, man?”Harry gives you a sarcastic sneer. “Does it look like I’m alright? This is exactly what I don’t want- an evening of being shown how my father would rather have you as a son.”Gwen scowls at him. “Hey- whatever problems you have with your father, they aren’t Peter’s fault. This is Thanksgiving- don’t act like that, especially not to your friend.”He looks like he’s about to retort, rudely, before he shrugs and leans back into the couch, looking away. “Look…Whatever.”You frown at Harry- ever since Halloween, he’s been more and more like this. Still, no reason you shouldn’t try to be a friend. “So, do wither of you have college plans? I was thinking ESU myself.”Harry’s eyes narrow as he scoffs- Gwen, trying to keep a polite conversation, tries to smile. “I was thinking of ESU, as well. They’ve got a great science department and a lot of noted scientists in the area went there, like Otto Octavius. I’m pretty sure I’ll be accepted.”There’s an awkward silence as you see that Stella has actually stopped staring creepily at Gwen- she’s scowling at Harry.“So, Harry, what about that Iron Man- its powered armor, that’s pretty cool, right?”Harry doesn’t respond for a moment, when he does his words are cold and bitter. “I don’t know. Why don’t you talk with my father about it I’m sure he’ll be glad to listen to -you.-”>[ ]Screw it, talk science with Gwen and Stella downstairs>[ ]Sit quietly in the now incredible tense atmosphere.>[ ]Call out Harry for his attitude>[ ]Write in
>>28977201Nope. She's some orphan who got taken in by a guy who decided the best course of action was to instead of not taking her, thinks it's wise to instead send her to not his son or daughter, but instead the guy whose been dating his daughter for less than a month, and who he's never met like any responsible person would do.>[ ]Sit quietly in the now incredible tense atmosphere.The last thing you want to do is antagonize someone whose in a bad mood, particularly not at a gathering like this.

In all that time have i ever done anything but be YOUR friend, without any sort of alterior motive? I'm worried for you Harry, and i just want to help however i can."
>>28977320I think we should openly tell him that we don;t think we'll be heading to oscorp.He might actually like that.
>>28977335Agreed.
>>28977262Privately
>>28977227[X] Call out Harry for his attitude
>>28977347I think we already said as much.
>>28977347We just told him which college we're thinking about going to, I think he understands that.Honestly, the most effective thing would be to make it clear to his dad we're not interested so he'll stop trying and possibly focus on his own son for a change
>>28977327All the grown men are drunk off their asses during dinner.>>28977227>>28977262Do this privately. Harry clearly needs to realize it is not Peter's fault.
>>28977335(From his perspective) Stella lost entire family in *insert car/plane/fire accident here* and he is bitching about not getting enough attention to US and not to his father.
>>28977332Because /tg/ can't stand letting someone be mad at them, gotta tell them how those feelings are wrong.

>>28977346I really like this one.
>>28977373So? People do this all the time and telling him that his problems aren't bad won't end well.>>28977346Too long.
>>28977262This, but pull him aside to tell him it. We don't want to make things more awkward for Gwen and Stella
>>28977262Already supported but want to make sure this is relatively private
>>28977373That's a horrible idea.He still has problems, and trying to make him feel like his problems aren't a big deal will just make it worse. Sure it's not our fault, but he just wants someone to use as a scapegoat since he probably doesn't feel safe enough to throw it all at his dad. Letting him vent a bit would do more good.
>>28977439Private would be best. I hope it doesn't devolve into a heated argument that ends with us spilling the beans unintentionally about what we all but believe his dad did.
>>28977486If we're smart as Peter's INT stat says he is, he won't do that.
>>28977486I agree with it being private. Let's not make a scene.
>>28977486We're calling him a jerk because he disregards his son, not calling him a killer.

>>28977621... that is honestly not the right thing to say.It would be more appropriate to take Norman himself aside to ask him not to say things like that anymore.

>>28977679No, we could phrase it to make it seem like it makes us uncomfortable.

Rolled 6 + 3>>28977771welp
>>28977792No SP...This was too great a task, fellows. Harry Goblin confirmed.
>>28977771Can we make a deal?
Rolled 6 + 3>>28977784>>28977788>>28977791And I rolled highest and it's still not enough. The difference is large enough that not even a spec point would help.
>>28977784>>28977788>>28977791Oh well. We try to get him to pull his head out of his ass another time, I suppose.
>>28977815Only first three rolls matter. Still >>28977809is right. We should have let things lie.
>>28977815We could have only won on a 20Now, Harry's gone full teen panic drama.
>>28977815That's what you get for not leaving well enough alone and sitting in awkward silence.
>>28977771it was impossible to get that
Couldn't even make it with a 20. I'm sorry Harry.
so...who is ready for new season boss fight?
>>28977862Harry please
>>28977830It shouldn't have been a task at all.You people are retarded and thought you could reason someone out of deep-seated emotional issues.
>>2897785920 is an epic and guaranteed win.
>>28977771Can we get another shot at this, that DC was impossible
>>28977836>We should have let things lie.Hell fucking no. You do not let this fester for a long time. Better to lance it here and now even if it turns into a yelling match.
Rolled 5 + 3>>28977858>>2897785920's are auto successes for rolls not 15(?) higher than 20+mod.
>>28977878>expecting good decisions
>>28977862That's it.We're making those bracers for Felicia as a Christmas present to increase her odds of survivability.
>>28977878Why are you acting like the result wasn't based on a roll? Stop being so obnoxious, fag.
Rolled 4 + 3>>28977878Aw cmon, don't be an ass.We couldn't have predicted he'd roll a damned 19.If he had rolled a 2 you'd be all happy, not complaining at all!
>>28977886You wouldn't have solved it anyways.You don't just whack at the emotions when they bubble up, you go for the source.
>>28977903That's true. Cosgrove rolled for Harry. It was entirely possible for him to get a 1 + 5.
I for one, welcome our new best friend Flash.
>>28977878Are you shitting me? We don't have to take this crap, especially not from someone who we thought was our friend. This is unacceptable behavior from Harry, and if you think he doesn't at least have some kind of choice in how he conducts himself, you're as big an idiot as he is.
Pete.Hey.Hey Pete.Merry Christmas you fuck.
>>28977940Harry is still a friend.And we if have to we'll befriend him all over again.
>>28977941He is our friend, he's having a bad day. You don't try to pick a fight with someone because they're having a bad day and misplacing their anger.You expect someone whose made to stop and think and be rational?
>>28977886And a yelling match might be good.Things we shouldn't tell harry right now, under wise and measured circumstances:1. Your dad killed my parents.2. He wanted to weaponize my dad's cure for cancer.3. I'm Spider-man4. He killed Eddie's parents5. Once I can prove it you'll never have to worry about that bastards approval again and I don't have to worry about him trying to get me to finish my father's work so he can profit from the ashes of what the monster he'd have me build would bring upon this world.
Didn't we increase our Fellowship 3 times during out last in-character break?
>>28977989I'm sure him finding out his dad is a murderer will make him feel much better.
>>28977989Way to state the obvious.
>>28978002We did. Our total bonus is +3 without our newest Spider-Man costume
>>28977989
>>28977989Technically we don't know near as much as we thought we did.
>>28978016"Fine harry. I get it. You won't listen to me...">walk into basement>Reenter through front door in Spidey costume>"I heard someone was a gloomy gus!"
Harry is just in a bad place right now.I hope he cheers up and gets better before he dies
>>28978028Ya I'm going to laugh if Norman turns out to be a pretty upstanding guy outside of the shitty dad thing.
>>28978057I'll be mildly disappointed if we don't find anything bad about him outside of that.
>>28977903>>28977912Eh, you think Harry has enough points in Fellowship to get himself a +5 bonus?Dude's probably so mad at us that he's actually being boosted by Parker Luck.
>>28978076Well there is still the questionable human experiments/reproduction of super soldier serum.
>>28978028We still know Norman wanted Carl and Richard to weaponize their cancer cure. Use it as a means to mass produce super soldiers. During the course of this project, there was an experiment whose ethics Carl and RIchard could not agree to and refused to let the project go further, sequestering from Osborne the knowledge necessary to go through with the experiment without them.At this point, Mary and Richard leave their final notes for Peter and brace for imminent death, a death that did come.If Norman can come out of this not being a murderer or a monster willing to see unethical super soldier/symbiot experiments done...I would be surprised? Not upset, just surprised.
>>28978076Could be authorized by the government to be doing that for all we know.
>>28978080>Dude's probably so mad at us that he's actually being boosted by Parker Luck.....shit....he found the Goblin gear. He was moping on the roof when we hid the gear and spoke with Gwen...he doesn't know who Spider-Man is, which is why it never reset...but he found the stash."Why did you steal my dad's tech from Hobgoblin?""I wanted to take it apart, figure out how it worked, put it back together, and then drop it back off with the police,""What?""JET PACKS ARE COOL!"
>>28978109Since his return to Marvel he's been a chessmaster type who sees himself as more or less an anti-hero. Someone who know and is sick of the stupid super hero shit going on around him and is willing to take active steps to surpress it and get things done while dealing with his own personal demons he want to put to bed.Then again I'm probably putting WAY too much stock into Thunderbolts and Dark Avengers since he seems to have gone back to his zany 60's roots.
>>28978143Possible, but that doesn't really have anything to do with whether or not he's fueled by the infernal power of our misfortune.Like it probably doesn't require him to be a full-fledged super villain. It might just require the outcome to be bad for us.So depending on the context, even Stella and Felicia could be boosted by Parker Luck, without being evil.
Is Cosgrove dead?
You frown and grab Harry by the arm. “Harry, we’re talking upstairs. Privately.”Dragging him to your room, you close the door behind you and turn to him as he scowls at you, arms crossed. “What is it?”You stare at him and sigh. “Harry, I don’t care about your dad- he’s a jerk. I just want to be able to talk with my friend, dude.”You try to rest you hand on his shoulder, but he slaps it off and glares at you. “Look- I don’t want to fucking be pitied by -you- of all people.”Your brow furrows in confusion as you feel your heart twist at that. “…Harry? What’s that supposed to mean?”He pokes you in the chest. “What do you -think- it’s supposed to mean? I mean that I’m Harry Osborn- and yet I can, somehow, never measure up to -you- Puny Peter Parker, who can’t fucking talk to girls and gets bullied and is so fucking pathetic that he only has -one- friend. You know why Dad’s more interested in you? I let myself coast by and let you be the smart kid while I was the more popular one. “Hell, Gwen Stacy wouldn’t even go out with you and everybody knew she had a thing for you. How -sad- can you be? And yet somehow you’re no longer bullied- you’re friends with Flash Thompson, the hot new Girl is going out with you because you helped out her pitiful cripple brother. And then you try to pity -me- by setting me up with your creepy freak neighbor.”He breathes deeply again, poking into your chest again. “So, I’ve realized my mistake. I’m going to brush up on my studying skills and I’m going to show my dad that -you’re- the fucking joke.”He pushes you out of the way before looking back. “Hell, maybe I’ll ask Gwen out, too.”You fist is clenching and unclenching as Harry scoffs. “Later, dweeb.”>[ ]He’s only mad.

>>28978435>>28978423We were hoping for friendship I'm pretty sure.Also I'm pretty sure when we've known him he's been Spectacular Harry Osborn, not Ultimate model. So why's he acting like he has friends all of a sudden?

>>28978750We aren't his dadSo no. We just want to help.
>>28978335>>28978472This.Honestly, looking at things, apart from the chance of him rolling poorly and us well and maybe even then, this was going to blow-up at some point. Harry is not mature enough to blame his father and goes for Peter as the easy scapegoat. And, things would have blown-up. While it is sad it happened at Thanksgiving, much less at all, it's better we got this out of the way. Honestly, other than making a point to talk with Harry once a week or so to see how he's doing and whether he wants to be friends, we should concentrate on other things for the time being.
>>289787502That much rage would melt the sun
Disappoint guy here.Have fun voting 1 and reliving what will most likely be a very real representation I had with my former best friend. me taking the place of Harry and that phrase being the exact triggerThere is no POSSIBLE way that will go wrong. Trust me.
>>28978750YesNo punch.
>>28978762This counts as lashing out in anger. If we were really in control we would never ruin thanksgiving by punching someone, so it would be using our fill strength.
>>289787502- NoThat's the last thing he needs to hear from us right now, it'll only piss him off more.
>>28978745Exactly. Please do not do this anon
>>28978750 2
>>28978750Why the fuck would you even consider this as a possibility, Cosgrove? Barely anybody actually supported it while most were against it.

>>28978875This.That line is an Armor Piercing Sentence for Harry. It warrants use only when we REALLY want him to lash out in absolute rage at us.

>>28978935it wouldn't be spider-man if something didn't go horribly wrong
>>28978935He's not. He knows that most people are against it, so he's creating tension like he always does. He is the hype-master, after all.>>28978934Exactly. Nothing like giving your opponent negatives to concentration rolls.
>>28978967Hey goblin, I don't know who you are but I'm sure your father would be real disappointed in you right now

>>28979014It's assumed at the point we use it, either our mask has been burnt off, removed, or parker luck has allowed Harry to figure it all out on his own and he's called us on it.
>>28979014Doesn't work like that. It requires two factors. 1: He knows (or thinks [Stella creating an illusion]) it's Peter Parker saying it, and 2: he knows that we know he's Harry Osborne.The line would lose its punch if those factors are not met, because we are partly his object of ire.
You control yourself. His words hurt, especially coming from a long time friend, but he’s only mad. He almost certainly doesn’t mean that. When he cools down, he’ll probably apologize. But he’ll have to apologize for having said that first. He’s confusing pity with giving a damn. However, you’re not going to keep the flames burning in this argument.You watch him leave the room before heading down shortly after- he’s sitting on the couch and there’s probably an hour or two until food is served. Eddie still seems to be outside. Gwen and Stella look concerned and angry.>[ ] Go outside and cool off, literally>[ ] See what’s up with Gwen and Stella>[ ] Head down to the basement- you just want to be alone.>[ ] Write in

Goddammit, we should have gone with "Harry, I'm disappointed in you," let him punch us, and then laugh at him when the punches hurt him more than us.Harry's barreling down the Goblin Road and there's nothing we can do about it. The least we could do is give him a really good case of daddy issues to shower us with in the future.

>>28979099>>28979132Yeah, fuck it. Let's go with this.
>>28979099>Gwen and Stella
Guys, just take Gwen and Stella down to the basement. It would be less awkward discussing things without Harry right there.
>>28979132this
>>28979194I love this image
>>28979197True, might be a good idea.
>>28979132Ding ding ding. This guy's got it.
>>28979158And how would that help? Seriously, explain how showing Peter as superior in every way to Harry will help the situation.
>>28979194>neck scarfConfirmed for dying in his first year of superheroing.NO CAPES.
>>28979099Outside to cool off.Basement leads to eavesdropping or wacky walkins, talking to Gwen and Stella excludes Harry and salts the wound further, and talking to Harry is obviously out of the question.Also:PAGE 10 ALERT
>>28979132Good idea, let's do this.
>>28979099just like >>28979132 said>>[ ] See what’s up with Gwen and Stellaand if possible >[ ] Head down to the basement-well, I guess we will have more time to bro-up with Flash and Gwen, may be even MJ
>>28979217>Seriously, explain how showing Peter as superior in every way to Harry will help the situation>>28979217Harry's barreling down the Goblin Road and there's nothing we can do about it
>>28979099[ x ] Go outside and cool off, literallyLets have some fresh air.
>>28979132>Harry notices taking them to a basement>"I wonder what he has set up there">"Oh look. Some hard drive. Let's put that fuck Peter behind, Harry Smash!"Make sure the drive is safe and secure.
>>28979197You are probably right.And with that, I'm going to bed. work in the morn.
>>28979132This guy's got my support
>>28979228We have a computer with internet down there. We could just waste time showing Stella youtube videos.I think all three are smart enough not to discuss stuff they don't want overheard.
>>28979228At this point Peter wouldn't give a shit if it salted the wound. He knows we're pissed. Let his stew for while.
I almost wish we antagonized him to force him into a pseudo sparring match so he could just let it all out.
>>28979099>Go outside and cool off, literallyMight be a good idea, though we'll likely walk in the middle of Eddie having problems of his own.
>>28979256Something tells me that would not have made things any better.
>>28979236That's not an answer Anon. In fact, the repetition of the line is actually probably a better condemnation of your own point than anything else you've said.So, explain your reasoning.
>>28979099>[ ] See what’s up with Gwen and Stellaand then>>[ ] Go outside and cool off, literallyEddie's out there, it might be a good idea to see what has him so down.
>>28979197>>28979132Though, I do want to add that other than asking what happened when down there we do not discuss anything sensitive. We don't want to be overheard.
Oh you yanks and your thanksgivings... don't you know that christmas time is when you're supposed to let out all your resentment and burn your bridges?
>>28979296Harry's the one who did the burning, anon.
>>28979277I'm gonna give you a hint, bucko:I wasn't trying to help the situation. That's what the quotes were about.
Guys, I can already tell - hide the hard drive if you are going to use the basement at all. All it takes for it to 'disappear' is Harry excusing himself to go to the /bathroom/. I know Peter /tg/ius Parker is not a dumbass, but this HAS to be reiterated - it's our most precious posession and right now Harry is actively looking for ways to wound us.
>>28979296Christmas is meant to rebuild those bridges only to burn them down that very night.
>>28979296No, that's Festivus
>>28979296We like to hate each other as early as possible so we can get to the part where we pretend to like each other sooner..
>>28979296We Americans like to do that earlier. It makes the passive-aggressive shitflinging at Christmas much more exciting.
>>28979316Yes, make sure the hard-drive is hidden well. In fact, don't even mention it.
>>28979296You say that as if we don't let out all our resentment and burn our bridges all over again on Christmas as well.Think of Thanksgiving as like the pregame warmup for Thanksgiving.
>>28979316We plan on doing this.
>>28979316I thought that Peter Parker, generally not being a dumbass, locks the secret basement stuff up when it's not in use.
>>28979316Harddrive was already hidden.
>>28979342*for Christmas, rather. This is what happens when I internet at 3 a.m.
>>28979355good, better not mention it anything about it, at least for now.
>>28979354>>28979355Looks like it. Thanks for the confirmation Cosgrove.
>>28979369Why would we mention it anyways? Are we retarded or something
>>28979389>Anons>Not retarded
>>28978934>Parker, we can destroy him... you want to make your father proud don't you?>I'm listening...>Betrayal must not be countenanced. Parker must be educated. >What do I do? >Instruct him in the matters of loss and pain. Make him suffer, make him wish he were as dead as his parents>And then?>And then grant his wish. >... >The cunning warrior attacks neither body nor mind. >TELL ME HOW! >The HEART Harry! First, we attack his heart!
>>28979369We have no intention of doing so. That harddrive concerns our parents and is for our eyes only.
>>28979389This is /tg/
Harry I know your mad at me, but I just want to say I have a secret harddrive with super technology in my basement but please don't steal it
>>28979422makes perfect sense. if we do not tell him this he might steal it after all.
>>28979422You know someone out there would think this is good idea to say...
>>28979422
>>28979422The simple fix to that theoretical problem is to switch out the top secret hard drive for one full of dolphin porn.
>>28979461Better yet>"OH MAN! I WOULD BE SUPER UPSET IF SOMEONE TOOK THIS HARDDRIVE FILLED WITH MY JOURNAL ENTRIES AND EMBARRASSING VIDES AND PORN. I'LL JUST SET IT RIGHT OVER HERE WHERE I CAN KEEP AN EYE IN IT.">"...what's really on that?">"crippling computer virus."
>>28979461Yeah but that would require us getting a hard drive full of dolphin porn.Also 2:00am, I'm going to sleep.
>>28979487I thought everybody had one of those handy for situations like this.
>>28979461Wait, I thought that the dolphin porn drive WAS the top secret hard drive.Why would we give away all our precious, forbidden dolphin porn?
>>28979481that automatically downloads sharkporn
You head over to Gwen and Stella. They glance at you, then at Harry, then at the door. “What’s up? I was going to go see if you two wanted to go downstairs to the basement.”Gwen gives you an uneasy look, the three of you distancing yourselves from Harry. “Pete, what happened up there? Your neighbor, Mary Jane went upstairs right after the both of you did to tell you that dinner would be done in an hour and twenty minutes, but she ran back downstairs and our the door crying. What happened?”If she was up there, then certainly, she overheard Harry’s outburst. Great. You shake your head. “I didn’t even know she was there and Harry…”You shake your head before looking outside.>[ ] Head out yourself to look for her.>[ ] This is Harry fault- he should do it>[ ] Ask Gwen and Stella for help>[ ] Go outside, see if Eddie can give you any help- she must have run past him>[ ] Write in

Gwen and stella don't know what happened, and arent close to her. Leave them out
>>28979569This.
>>28979633Stella is rather close to MJ right now.She might be able to help.
I'm going to bed guys. Make these last few story posts count.Also, remember to update the archive.

Damn it harry, you are officially written off the friend list
>>28979534Ask Stella for help.Also Eddie.
God.... fucking.... dammit....Harry.
Well this is going to be another terrible conversation?>"Is what he said true? Did you really try and set me up with him because I'm some sort of unlovable freak to be peddled off?"Bleach Questers take notes
>>28979642Plus we can always turn it from "Setting up for Harry&Mary" to "I thought you guys would get along">OUR wastiMeYes captcha, we might be wasting our time. Harry's a loose firecracker
>>28979534>>[ ] Ask Gwen and Stella for help
>>28979675We wanted to set her up with a friend, especially since they both appeared to have the same interest.
>>28979675But we just thought they could get along. I don't think we were set on hooking them up.They both liked anime, so we thought they could be friends.
>>28979675I'm pretty sure we just figured that they were the only two people we know who are big into anime, and it might be nice to talk to someone about it.Like we are into science, and even if things are a bit weird with Gwen right now, it's nice that we can talk to her about that as well.
>>28979534[ x ] Head out yourself to look for her.
>>28979690But then it turned out Harry was a Filthy Feddy and hated all spacenoids and MJ was all Sieg Zeon Accguy forever
>>28979699That was Peter's intention, yes.
Well Norman is either going to be very proud or very agitated with his son.
>>28979679Just say "I didn't know at the time that he was a bitter spiteful asshole though, I swear I wouldn't have brought it up if I knew he was like that."Like make it clear that out of the two of them, Harry's the creepy freak.
>>28979534Do it yourself
>>28979716Peter's the better man.We explain that we were having a fight and harry didnt meant that. And that peter's sorry she got dragged into it.
>>28979534>[X] Head out yourself to look for her.This is our problem, we should let others enjoy themselves and do this on our own.
>>28979762Eh, he might not mean being mad at us, but I'm pretty sure he definitely meant what he said about Mary Jane.
>>28979716I don't want to pass judgements about Harry. Not yet, anyway.This anon >>28979762 has the right idea. Just say that she didn't deserve all of this and we try to assure her that he didn't mean what he said, explaining why we asked him to talk to her.
>>28979762Hell no. I say give MJ a free swing at Harry for that creepy freak comment. That's bullshit no mater what state of mind your in. The guy deserves it at this point.
unless the next words Harry says to us "I'm sorry. I've been acting a like a real douche." We aren't going to do anything with him. we're done with that petulant child."I tried to help you Harry, because god knows you can't help yourself but I'm starting think you probably don't want help. You do nothing and yet you wonder why you get passed over and ignored. You are a fucking silver spoon crybaby who loves to play the victim and the most self centered self entitled asshole I have ever met."
"There are moments in our lives that define us Harry, I sincerely hope this was not one of yours."
>>28979801Oh, shit. I like this one. It's almost like something Uncle Ben would say.But let's save it for if he's still acting like a prick when he needs to leave.
>>28979796Jesus Christ fuck off already. Fights happen, stop acting like a bitter faggot
>>28979801You sound like the Disappoint guy. If you are holy shit you are elbow deep in Harrys psyche.
>>28979796Are you the guy that wanted to tell Aunt May that you would not give a single damn about Mary Jane even if she died of cancer the next day - before she even got introduced? You write exactly the same
>>28979814>>28979801Do these, drop some "World in a bottle" on his ass.
>>28979829That line is biting, but it's not precision nuclear strike biting.He'll be shaken by it, but not so much that he'll attack us like the disappoint line would.
we should probably tell harry that the only reason his father doesn't show him any affection is to make him desperate enough to do anything for his father's affection.
>>28979829You are correct. And I know this because I have been this Harry before almost to the T down to the same types of parental figures.Except not as rich obviously.
>>28979844...Why? Harry has NEVER acted like this before. Peter, at this moment, has every reason to believe Harry is venting, but if this shit continues for weeks, THEN we will have license to use it.
>>28979851It could be a prelude to Disappoint. This feels fucking scary knowing we can obliterate a person with two sentences. Yes, even if the person is fictional.Sometimes you scare me /tg/. But at the same time you lure me to stay around.
You shake your head. “I’m going to go look for her. Can you two make sure things don’t get out of hand here? Everyone got together for this dinner, I’d rather not see the night ruined for everyone.”Grabbing your coat, you slip on your shoes and head out the door. You see Eddie standing there grimacing at his phone as he looks up, he tries to look more cheerful. “Hey, Pete. What happened with the red haired girl- I was about to go follow because my doctor’s office was no the line and had to end the call first.”You see him look down and curse. “Crap, they’re calling me back. Better not be trying to reschedule my appointment. Look, I -really- need to take this- she ran down the street that way- She wasn’t wearing a coat so she’s probably freezing and she wasn’t running that fast- you should head after her and get her back inside.”He answers the phone. “Hello? Eddie Brock speaking.” He mouths ‘go’ and gestures for you to hurry. Taking his advice for the moment you head down the street looking for her- she’s got a bit of a head start though. Down that was is the playground the two of you used to play in, along with a convenience store.

>>28979872Cos, we're on Page 10. Just FYI
>>28979936That's the kind of rational thinking I do not associate with MJ.Also regarding Eddie's health... Didn't he have cancer in the comics? Really bad cancer?And isn't in-universe, the symbiote supposed to be a cancer cure?
>>28979971And from there we're on the road to Anti-Venom, which is... pretty much what the Ultimate Symbiote was -supposed- to be.It all makes sense now.
>>28979971... Fuck.On the MJ note, be sure not to mess this up, guys. This could be the one chance to get her as a friend.
>>28979986So what should we focus on?I think it's important she understand that pity didn't enter into the equation at any point in time.Not sure what else though.

Think you'll start another thread, Cos?Did his internet die again?
>>28980033We'll be honest. We'll say we thought Harry could relate to her on her interests, that being anime and such.But we also say that we didn't do it out of pity. We did it because we care about her, and how Stella seems a lot happier now that she has MJ to hang out with.Let her know that she's sincerely valued.
>>28980082Ah whoops, sorry man completely missed that post....Even used the same Anti-Venom image I see.
>>28980033Honestly want to tell her how much she had made our childhood a personal hell when she was around... And well the fact that we're pretty much over it I think. Hard to tell with you Anons..

>>28980095That reminds me, Felicia enrolled Stella in school of some kind right?Or did she manage to put that on hold for now?
You head towards the playground the two of you always spent time with as kids. Now that she’s a person and not a childhood boogieman, you’ve remembered some things about her- she was always a pain, but she wasn’t always that bad, but that might have had something to do with her father, after all. It takes you a few minutes as you keep an eye out for any sign of her- she’s introverted and doesn’t like crowds- she wouldn’t go somewhere with people- the convenience store is one of the few places open on thanksgivings in the immediate vicinity. The Arcade is closed, but she might not care. But the playground was the place she and you used to spend a lot of time at.Arriving, you feel your Spider-sense hit that static-like sense of worry again as you approach Mary Jane. She’s on the ground clutching her arm, seems like she tripped and scraped it. Her eyes are closed as she tries to take deep breaths, muttering almost inaudibly.“pleasenopleasenopleaseno.”She pauses as she hears you come near. “W-who is it?”“It’s me, Peter.”You Spider-sense’s static spikes as she tries to move away from you without opening her eyes. Breathing deeply you see her searching her pockets for bandages or anything else, growing more and more frantic as her breathing grows more frenzied.Kneeling down, you rest your hand on her shoulder- she flinches as you retract your hand. “Mary Jane, I’m sorry about what Harry said, but you need to calm down. What’s the matter?”Almost hyperventilating, she ‘looks’ in your direction as her uninjured arm holds her injured one before letting go and grabbing at you, her voice hysterical and frightened.“Help me…don’t want to see the blood again.”Peter Parker Quest, Issue #38, ENDTo Be Continued

>>28980033I'm sorry, the stuff in your room looked cool and harry went on about stuff like it a lot. I thought he'd get it better than me.

"> no mention of trying to set them up as anything more than friends, puts interest in her hobbies, and doesn't fully blame Harry
>>28980120...Well fuck.Not quite a split personality, but similar in nature.I'm just glad she's not exactly culpable for the murders.
>>28979971Those are some very handsome questions there.
>>28980120>“Help me…don’t want to see the blood again.”
Is this a Kubo?Something more or less flat out spelled out and discussed for weeks, but still surprised to see it revealed?Also Night everyone and happy holidays. Hope they go well.Cheers Cosgrove!
>>28980120IT'S HABBENING!!!!
>>28980163
>>28980120Soooo...we looking at potential dissociative disorder? Sight of blood triggers triggers different personality?
>>28979971The "Save Eddie" bit could not be more transparent than if it where polished glass.
Curse these cliffhangers!
>>28980173Congrats on figuring this out only now that it has been spelled out in bold.
>>28980120Welp.
>>28980173Eh, if she is the Carnage killer, then she's got a lot more going on than just crazy, if you think she was able to kill that many people that quickly without leaving any witnesses or evidence.She also would have had to kill armed police officers who had their guard up.
>>28980202Not if she does it quietly and from behind.
>>28980193WHAT part about "HYPE MASTER" do you NOT UNDERSTAND, nigger?>MJ actually being dangerousWell, sorry Stella. You can't play over at her house anymore.
>>28980210Not that fast.Not with that many cops.Not in such a small area.Not without getting her ass shot at least once.
>>28980213>Illusion lady is in danger of having her illusion stabbed
>>28980120...you LIVE on that cliff, don't you.

Obviously we need a sample of her blood.Next thread we should bring her to a tap to 'wash her wound' and use some tissue to grab a swab of blood before bandaging up.We can do a check on it if theres something wrong with it.
GUYS HEY GUYS THIS IS JUST A FALSE ALARM THE ONLY REASON OUR SPIDER-SENSE IS GOING OFF IS BECAUSE OF HILDHOOD CONDITIONING FROM BEFORE WE HAD IT!
>>28980223She is what, 90 pounds soaking wet and 5'4"?Impossible. If she's Carnage, she'd have to be some manner of superhuman.
>>28980120Too bad we don't have our web gauntlets on us.Since that's one of the original purposes for the fluid, isn't it?
