[ Time for Peter to use the intercom again. ]

Hey! What's up newbies, I'm Peter-Peter Parker and I'm around answer questions if anyone has them. You can talk to me over here or always come and find me. I'm usually either in the dressing car, the game room or the cinema car. Chances are I'm not doing anything super important so it's probably okay to assume I have time.

I'm always down for a movie or a game-I get kinda bored easy. [ Part of him is still expecting Tony to cut in with a list of new chores but he knows he won't. ]

[ Yeah, he's terrible at this. Why must he be so awkward around people he likes? Not that he-well, maybe he does. Kitty is really compassionate and genuine and he really likes that about her. Plus she's really cool-especially to agree to put up with his nonsense. ]

Um... spaghetti? [ He offers through a half laugh. ] Mostly just.. basics. I mean I can follow a recipe but that's-my uncle was always the real chef in out household.

[ She smiles as she watches him, some of her nerves fading away. This was actually nice, just getting to hang out and spend time with Peter. ]

A little bit is better than nothing. My mom's a really good cook too, but I have some trouble with it. I've been trying to learn to cook while I'm here, though.

[hashtagparkerluck]

Yeah, I've done more cooking here than I have in my entire life.

[ he admits, moving about to get some water boiling. ] It's not too different chemistry I guess-they're both about balance. Just, you know, in chemistry I don't recommend licking the spoon.

[ ... ]

...Okay, that was a bad joke.

[goingthroughaphase]

[ She can't help a small giggle anyway. ]

A little bit. But it was still kinda funny.

That's a good point, though, I hadn't thought about cooking that way.

[ She wasn't bad at chemistry. Maybe she should think about cooking more like that to help her out. ]

[hashtagparkerluck]

[ he grins a little when he gets her to giggle. So maybe it wasn't that lame of a joke. ]

I tend to think of most things that way-in steps and stages. Which lends to all the overthinking I do on a daily basis.

[ He stirs the macaroni in the pot some to check if it's time to drain it. ]

[goingthroughaphase]

[ She could definitely understand that too. ] I get that. It's a good way to plan certain things. But yeah, it's easy to get trapped in thinking too much.

[ She was learning to trust her instincts more, but it's a process. ]
