Hey, you've reached Peter's phone. Leave me a message, or just text like a normal person.

[Beep!]

[Peter pauses, as he considers. He wants to try not to think about his newly green and somewhat scaly arms, but a second opinion would also be really nice.]

I'm tempted by that second one but I want to get your opinion on my arms, if you want to meet up? Maybe on the roof?

Change to action or wrap for now?

[the_amazing]

Yeah, I've tried pretending too and as you can probably guess, it's not going that well.

Let me know what time and I'll see you there.

Wrap for now sounds good! We can handwave Peter showing him his arms!

[heartstumbles]

Honestly, there's only so much pretending I can take.

Okay! Maybe in an hour? See you there!

[Because truthfully, it's probably safer to meme AFTER the plants have made weird things happen rather than encourage it even more while they're around.]



[And then, five minutes later...]

No, wait, this one is so much better. If you read better as 'worse'

[the_amazing]

[He's so embarrassed from how he was affected by the pollen, but he's not going to let Teddy know about any of that. There's a bit of a pause before he sends a return meme.]

[hybrid_prince]

You win with that one. I surrender to the superior Meme-King of the month.

You doing okay?

[the_amazing]

Aw, you just let me win that one.

Got a snootful of that kind of pollen that makes you tell the truth and nothing but. I said some things I'm sort of ashamed of and I might have to fake my death and go out and live in the wilderness of the Hellscape.

[hybrid_prince]

Nah, I'm honestly tapped out. Took me a LONG TIME to find the previous ones if I'm honest.

Huh, well, if you need help faking your death, let me know. My sword only cuts what I want it to so it does REALLY convincing stabs that don't actually hurt.

[the_amazing]

We just can't get too niche like that. Keep our suffering to a broader level.

I was only sort of half-kidding on that one. At least I only bared my soul to one person, and even though she now has some good blackmail on me, it could be a lot worse.

[hybrid_prince]

Is the person who learned it likely to use it against you? Like, if it was Talia you'd know you're okay.

[the_amazing]

Honestly, it's fifty-fifty on those odds. And you're close. It's the other universe's Widow. She helped me through some impromptu therapy.

[hybrid_prince]

Oh, Natasha. She isn't all that bad, compared to some people from her world.

[the_amazing]

I haven't met all of them, so I can't say. But yeah, she seemed not to mind too much. Said it was better that we were discussing my issues than hers, so...

[hybrid_prince]

Yeah, that sounds like a Black Widow. Talia is better at talking to me sometimes, but I don't know Natasha well.

[the_amazing]

Talia did talk me down off the ledge when my latest Hell-change happened. I am thankful for that.

I've spoken to Natasha a handful of times before then. I preferred the time we walked around the carnival making witty observations about our surroundings over whatever this was.

[hybrid_prince]

She's saved me a few times. Best big sister a guy could ask for.

[the_amazing]

She does tease me a lot, but I'm sure part of that's my fault. I'm extremely teaseable.

[hybrid_prince]

Extremely, Sweet-Roll.

[the_amazing]

Don't disrespect your elders, young man.

[hybrid_prince]

Alright, I'll try and resist. Later Peter!

[cleptes]

I'm sorry, Peter. For what I did.

[ She exhales shakily. ]

This bloody place.

voice

[the_amazing]

[He lets her take her time. He can hear the pain in her voice and it makes his heart clench.]

You have nothing to apologize for. It wasn't you.

[cleptes]

But it's not just that I attacked you, I manipulated you.

[Bela takes another moment.]

I know I was influenced by the drugs, but I still don't feel right about it.
