bored and restless muse is bored and restless and MEAN

[nerdylilspidey]

This number's for you, mun-gal! Don't thank me; Consider it your reward for keeping me out of trouble.

By. Y'know. Keeping me away from everything ever.

Soooooooo yeah. This is totally a reward. Don't make it weird by questioning it.

[Wait. What--]

Doo da da doo da da doo--
And I need you~

[Seriously?]

Doo da da DOO DA DA DOO!
And I miss you~

Doo da doo doo da do--
And now I won-der~

If I should FALL! Into the sky...
Do you think TIME! Would pass me by, ohhhhh~

'Cause you know I'D WALK A THOUSAND MILES
If I could just... see... yoooou...

TONIGHT~

[Stop punishing me, Spidey. :(]

[... he's so pulling out the cell phone for this. RECORDING NOW.] Please do, I'm sure the internet would love it.

[nerdylilspidey]

[This is the part where he loves his mask.]

Well, I do need some slightly more positive press.

[hackrobatic]

Being ridiculous? Totally the way to go with that. Now go for it, I'm sure your public needs some laughs. [And Robin, too. Because come on, watching other superheroes be funny is kind of a rare sight.]

[nerdylilspidey]

I will only continue my fabulous performance... If you join me~

[hackrobatic]

Sorry, but I think Batman wouldn't like it if I broadcast myself on the net. Besides, I like my dignity to remain intact.

[nerdylilspidey]

Wha-- Dignity?? Who needs dignity when you run around the city in footie pajamas on a nightly basis?

[hackrobatic]

Uh, I do? And for the record, these are not pajamas. Pants and boots, okay?

[nerdylilspidey]

Oh. Well.

Guess I may be one of few who had to throw superhero dignity out the window.

[hackrobatic]

You could've just gotten by saying it's a shirt and pants or something.

But hey, now everyone knows Spidey wears pajamas when he fights crime.

[nerdylilspidey]

I'm pretty sure most folks figured that before I even said anything.

Spandex pajamas, though. Not as comfortable.

[hackrobatic]

Did you ever think of maybe changing your costume?

[nerdylilspidey]

Tried it once. (Sort of)

Didn't really turn out so great, soooo. I think I'm like, emotionally scarred from it.

[hackrobatic]

It was that bad. What happened, your arch enemy designed it?

[nerdylilspidey]

I wish.

It was awesome at first! Bulletproof, made its own webs, all the coolest stuff. But then it tried to eat people without my permission. Aaaaand then it tried to eat me.

And then I guess somehow it like. Got obsessed with me.

[hackrobatic]

[... and this is one of the reasons Robin is okay with not having superpowers.] That's like something out of an alien horror movie. And it's bad enough just watching those. At least you're okay now, right?

[nerdylilspidey]

[You are lucky, Robin. You are so lucky.]

That's my life. Sci-fi fantasies of the worst kind are no longer as strange as they're really supposed to be.

Anyway. Yeah, I'm good now, so long as the good mun behaves.

[hackrobatic]

[Except for the dead parents bit.] Oh, I know how that feels at least. I'm friends with a Martian. Which in all honesty is very cool, but aliens are a regular part of the hero gig now. [Man, what happened to just dealing with whack jobs like Joker, Penguin, and Killer Croc.]

I think after your little... performance [TRYING NOT TO LAUGH.] no one would bother putting you through that.

[nerdylilspidey]

[Well. Dead parents and superpowers that land you into freaky sci-fi level insanity... Robin is relatively lucky, then.

Also WAIT. BRAKES, PUT THEM ON.] Whoa whoa whoa whoa-- Martian?? Outer space, honest to goodness, non-Spielberg produced, true to life, living breathing Martian???

[hackrobatic]

[... he's also the adopted son of a billionaire. So Dick Grayson is very lucky.

AWWWW YEAH THIS IS HIS FAVORITE THING EVER.] Yup, straight from Mars, same as her uncle. Miss M's pretty cool, cute too, but taken. Martian Man Hunter's nice, too.

[YEP. TOTALLY CHILL ABOUT THIS. KNOWING MARTIANS? NO BIGGIE.]

[nerdylilspidey]

[... Peter would like some of that luck, please and thank you.

He just. He can't even. Aliens. OhGod, he can't nerd out hard enough.]

...Details. Details. Do they talk about what life on Mars is like? Is it-- Did they have to alter anything in their physical makeup to be able to survive on Earth or is the atmosphere on Mars really similar enough that they didn't need a huge biological overhaul in order to be here- Or that could be something that you wouldn't even think about because normal guys don't think about stuff like that and there's no way you could even really ask a Martian weird questions like that because it's like whoa, personal boundaries.

Have they been to Vulcan?

[hackrobatic]

[Sure, hop over to the DC universe and he'll hook you up.

Robin is totally saving this information for later. "Spidey loves aliens." Man, if only Miss M were here.] Uh, Miss M talked about home a few times, seems like an okay place. And they're shape-shifters, so they can alter pretty much anything about their physical bodies. I'm talking down to the blood cells. [... oh, he's so going to mess with you now.] So really, I could be a Martian. And you wouldn't even know it.

But some of us-- them might have been to Vulcan. I haven't. [SO GONNA TROLL.]

[nerdylilspidey]

[Yeah sure, let me just. Y'know. Get my universe hopping gear.

Shhhh, he's just such a nerd.]

Shape shifters. Duh. That makes so much sense. I mean they ha--

[Wait. Waaaaaait. He's right. Robin could be an alien and who would even be able to tell.]

... Oh, my God. OhmyGod. Batman's an alien too, isn't he? I mean, you guys are just too cool to be anything from Earth. Now I feel like that's just been staring me in the face and I had no clue until now. It's so obvious.

[hackrobatic]

[No problem, Robin can wait.

You're a bigger nerd than he is on electronics.] Sorry, but that information is classified. The government would get a little mad if I told you.

[He didn't even say which government.] But Batman and I are totally whelming, aren't we?

[nerdylilspidey]

[Okay. Okay. Here we go-- Get ready- It's happening- It's- ..... Okay wait.

Don't even get him started on tech.]

Am I not an exception to the rule? I mean- If the government's gonna decide to clone me ten billion times, they could at least let me know about the aliens that walk among us. I mean, c'mon. Gimme the one break.

You are. You totally are, it's just plain unfair. I call shenanigans.

[hackrobatic]

[Spidey, you should totally come hang out with Robin and KF. You'd get along famously. Give Robin a moment, he has to think on this.] Okay. But remember, it's a matter of huge importance, so make sure you keep your spidey mouth quiet.

Batman and I are human, I was totally messing with you. [And there you have it :D] I'm more than open for shenanigans. Drop by Gotham City sometime, we'll show you around. Always happy to help a fan. By the way, I'm supposed to show you this for some reason.
