All right, I can't say I'm not sort of happy my story's sticking with you.

[Peter's found a pen to fidget with, so there's some tipping it back and forth. Spinning it between his fingers when spidey reflexes and coordination finally match up.]

That's the cool thing about super heroes, right? It's, like-- universal. Even if the journey involves turning into-- well. Part spider, you can still identify with some of the--

[There's no better word for it.]

-- tropes. No matter who you are, you can want to save the world. Or have to. Okay, no, only some people have to.

[He ducks his head with a small, nervous chuckle.]

Sorry. Sorry. I'm not good at this.

Already calling yourself a super hero, huh?

[ yes yes she knows, there is a promise that was made that may or may not still need to be kept, but. it's pretty much impossible to avoid talking to a flustered Peter. it's like this impulse thing, she has no control over it. ]

I disagree. [ she's chewing her lip before she says anything more, because maybe she shouldn't even go here. maybe it's better to ignore what she knows and try and steer the conversation to that 'safe' place. the one where she has no idea who he is beyond Peter Parker, and what he's done. ]

I think you were always kind of a hero. In a-- subtle way. You know, like in the ways that a high school kid can be. Super just makes it sound like something else entirely. [ something unreal, impossible, fiction. fabricated. and there's nothing fabricated about Peter's bravery. ]

o7 I'm still figuring out Gwen, so, all good.

You're welcome.

[ said with amusement because its always kind of funny how honesty can make a person bashful. and Peter certainly delivers on that front. ..not! not that she finds other people's embarrassment enjoyable! she's not so mean. but with Peter, it's different. it's different because he has this smile, right, this thing where all he has to do is smile and it twists up her brain in a way that makes it impossible to think straight.

so yeah, if her honesty makes him stammer just the same- she'll take it.

So... how have you been, hero?

Spoilers are fine

Actually, no one has to. Even if they're given a chance to, some people won't do what's right.

They should, but some people don't care enough or respect the gifts they've been given enough to do the right thing.

[He grins at the cat comment since Tony still hasn't quite forgiven him for bringing home the one he'd saved.] Yeah, rescuing cats from trees still happens. I did it last week. Sometimes dealing with HYDRA is easier than saving cats.

HYDRA was group I fought during the war. It's...complicated. [And most of it is classified.] They were part of Hitler's regime but their leader broke off to try to take over the world. He thought he should be a god because he was given the super soldier serum. [At least most of that had been in the comic books so he isn't actually giving away key details.]

My team and I stopped him. Or I hope we did. There's hasn't been any trace of him since then.

There's a few a few HYDRA agents left. They're laying low for now but I figure now that I'm in the papers again - [He grimaces at both the idea of HYDRA attacking innocent people again and the publicity he's seemed to pick up.] - they'll be taking shots at me.

You'll have to be careful. Being in the public eye means you'll get enemies even if you are just doing the right thing.

"The right thing." A factor of a set of particular morals and a compulsion to act on them.

Right?
