Video | UN: Spidey

[keepitgoing]

[The easiest introduction in the world! Being that it's a, uh, re-introduction. Peter Parker Spider-Man has already confirmed he'd vanished for months — which is totally crazy, because he feels like he hasn't been gone all that long — but here he is! In all of his 'confused but has spirit' energy that had gotten him through his time in Etraya before.]

Hey guys, I'm back!

Just gone long enough to apply to, like, fifty barista and pizza guy jobs back home.

... Swinging around doesn't pay rent, y'know.

What'd I miss?

[He's perched on his tippy-toes, on top of one of the tallest buildings in Etraya.

As you do.]

Very true, I won't disagree there.

( she's not foolish enough to completely reject his offer-

after all, she had failed [as of now] on something very important. if she had help...well she wouldn't be here wondering if her world was actually doomed or not. )

And it's Heather, Heather Mason. I just use my last name because it means a lot to me...

( another member of the dead parents club. )

[keepitgoing]

Hey, last names can be really important.

[Said genuinely. He's the last Parker, and maybe someday he can pass it on.

(Man, that's crazy, though.)]

I'm Spider-Man, but you can call me Spidey if you want.

... Or, you know. Maybe someday soon you'll know my actual name. Work in progress.

[ingestion]

Okay 'Spidey', and no pressure on the name thing.

( she had her own array of secrets and questionable encounters, so she wasn't going to pressure him for anything more than he wanted to share.

as she wrapped up the conversation, there was one last thing she wanted to comment on. )

By the way, hope you're able to settle back in. When you originally left...do you remember that at all? How that happened?

[keepitgoing]

[He sighs, shaking his head.]

Didn't remember a single thing about Etraya until I returned.

It was pretty freaky, though -- like, I woke up, and I just knew why I was here, and who had been here last time I'd been around. Everything as clear as the day I'd vanished. Definitely... some missing faces. But plenty of new ones, too.

[ingestion]

I see...

( well his answer at the very least filled in a few blanks and questions she had about the mechanics of it all. it seemed so far that if she were to go back home [apparently echo was kind enough to do that], then it wasn't guaranteed that she would be allowed to remain there. which might also mean he didn't know how much time had passed. )

Well I have more questions about all of this, but I won't hold you up. I'm sure you have things you want to get back to. Thanks again for answering.

[keepitgoing]

Hey, no need to thank me; it's part of what I do.

If you ever need to ask anything else, or you need help, you can always give me a call.

... I have a totally crazy amount of free time when we're not on missions around here.

[Compared to home, anyway. As one can imagine.]

[ingestion]

Um well if you ever wanted to unwind from all the 'help' you're going around offering, you can always babysit or chill with my pet rat. The guy is starved for attention you know?

( speaking of, mr. cheese is immediately running up her arm and getting up close to the screen blocking her view. )

But I'll make sure to keep you in mind for things.
