[quipsandthwips]

It sure does
and that was before I met the skinny nervous version of him on the feed just now.
I've got one back home that is definitely different, but definitely similar.

I'm guessing you're gonna tell me more about this new update? ☝😬

[gwennie]

good good good
but you first
i've met three of him before today so i need to know which one you know
or might know
the multiverse is tricksy like that

WHELP SURE LOST THIS

[quipsandthwips]

Um...! Mine is just a normal kid.
Had some rough life stuff thrown his way, so I got him to join the homeless shelter volunteer work, give him something to focus on.
Things went to hell in the city but he was awesome at keeping a level head and helping with anything thrown his way.
Smart, talented kid, but also someone with a knack for making me worry.

wow i am Offended

[gwennie]

yeah, that all sounds about right. i've met one version of him that's a little older, but yeah.
it seems as though he's been put in the multi-verse to make spider-totems worry a lot.
but he's also a big help when it comes down to it
still don't like that he's here, but at least he's smart
unlike us, ahaa

[quipsandthwips]

Wow, rude.
But also, why does he end up dragged into our stuff?
I'm kinda worried for the kiddo back home now.

Should I be grounding him forever preemptively or???

[gwennie]

oh y'know
he's nosey

i think he already has a spider-dad
i think we're going to end up being designated spider-big-sister and spider-big-brother.
that seems to be the way of things

[quipsandthwips]

Nosy is the last thing I want. 😩
I already have enough people here who wanna get me started on gray hair early!

[gwennie]

there's a song about that, i think
and hey
don't you go blaming other people for your need to protect everyone you meet, parker

[quipsandthwips]

I'm not
I don't


... Not EVERYONE I meet.

[gwennie]

remember when you were still in high school trying to figure out the whole spider thing
and there was that lady who dropped her purse in the street and almost got run over by a taxi
but you managed to swing by at the right time to pull her out of the way?


i wonder how she's doing




[ yes of course gwen is totally making shit up based on her experiences so this might've never happened to him at all.

but she'll wait while he panics over trying to figure that out ]

[quipsandthwips]

I'm sure she's fine!
She got married to the hot dog vendor on 33rd

[Oh god it's worse than we thought.]

[gwennie]

omg

[quipsandthwips]

What???? 😬

[gwennie]

you're such a goon
isn't it exhausting? caring so much?
especially with people who can't like
give that back to you

[quipsandthwips]

I don't know
I guess sometimes? Okay, a LOT of the time
Especially with how many people also can't stand me
or how often things go wrong and it hurts


But I guess it kind of, IDK

Makes NYC a great big home to me, even between actual homes
Feels like the extended family I never got to have
or something.


That sounds depressing, I swear it's not.

[gwennie]

the things going wrong part is where i learned i need to like
compartmentalize
it's gonna pile up eventually though, pete
and then it is YOU who becomes the grey-hair-inducer 😋

no, that i get, actually
in a way

[quipsandthwips]

IDK what you're talking about, nothing'll pile up on me
I'm the MASTER OF HANDLING STRESS 🙃

[gwennie]

aw.........

[quipsandthwips]

If I didn't know any better I'd say you're doubting me. 😒

[gwennie]

oh i am
i definitely am

but in a really supportive way
