Maybe you should look into some kind of padding or reinforcements in that helmet of yours.

[tictacs]

Because your helmet is so padded.

[websandquips]

My mask has some impact resistant stuff woven in thanks to Mr. Stark but I can take more punishment than most people ever since I...became Spider-Man. Harder for me to get a concussion.

[tictacs]

Your superpowers?

/Dude/.

[websandquips]

What about them?

[tictacs]

Your superpowers gave you super defence?

[websandquips]

I'm not sure I'd call it super, but I am a lot harder to hurt than the average teenager.

[tictacs]

Okay, what else did it give you?

I mean, besides the--you stick to walls, right? That's not your suit, right?

Is it your suit?

Do you SECRETE sticky stuff?

[websandquips]

Jeez, asking about secretions before the first date.

No. All my suit does is make me look cooler than a scrawny nerd and hide my ID. Other than my webs, it was all me.

[tictacs]

Holy shit, Peter.

( and that's all scott can manage for a moment, both his eyes wide and blinking. )

I'll take you out to dinner no problem, but holy shit.

You stick to walls!

[websandquips]

Seriously?

Walls, ceilings, pretty much anything I want to really.

[tictacs]

That is amazing. Have you figured out your limits, or is there no limit to that stuff?

And yeah, yeah I'll take you to dinner. If you'll be helping me with my calculations I figure it's only right.

[websandquips]

Not yet but Mr. Stark has me doing all sorts of training to figure out some of it.

This is sounding better and better. Cool science and free food.

[tictacs]

I am a way better host than you give me credit for.

If I told your Aunt May I was with Mr. Stark, would she believe me?

Or would she think of me as the VistaCorp sociopath?

[websandquips]

Oh really?

Uh, it's probably better you let me handle talking to her. Not sure how much she followed the whole thing about VistaCorp.

[tictacs]

You trying to tell me there's a genuine reason you could leave Queens and come to San Francisco?

[websandquips]

Well, I left Queens and ended up in Germany. And frequently leave Queens to head up to the Avengers compound.

[tictacs]

Am I allowed to ask what you tell her?

[websandquips]

She thinks I'm part of one of Mr. Stark's educational programs for bright young minds of the future.

[tictacs]

th

That

That's hilarious

[websandquips]

What's hilarious about it?

[tictacs]

What in the world do you show her if she asks for results?

[websandquips]

Oh, I've got plenty of stuff. Projects I've had for awhile and some of the actual non-superhero stuff I have been working on. I've been fixing up and fiddling around with all sorts of stuff for years just for fun and to make some extra money.

[tictacs]

Whoa what?

What've you been making?

[websandquips]

I made my webshooters and most of the gear I have now is stuff I made once I got to Mr. Stark's lab. Before that I rigged up a security system for my aunt's apartment and I made a pretty good unofficial roomba until it caught fire.
