Yup.

One ridiculously huge indoor pool coming right up. [ He promises. ]

Should it take up like... the entire bottom floor? Like instead of rooms I can t just make different sections of the pool even though SIMS don't worry at all about things like load bearing walls.

[ Gwen thinks about this for a moment, resting her chin in her hand as she watches Peter poke at the laptop for a bit. She has her journal in the pocket of her hoodie and, while she's no Miles Morales in terms of art skills and such?

She has a sketch of a house on stilts with the pool underneath. Where the ground floor would be, if they decided to have a ground floor. ]

Something like this?

[ glances over at her sketch and nods. ]

Yeah, but I was thinking of putting inside and like covering all the walls with windows or something.

Okay, but it has to be the stupidly fancy, ridiculous floor-to-ceiling windows. The rest of the town will be very envious.

[ She's sure they won't be, but it's fun to imagine. ]

Way ahead of you, Gwen.

[ He grins and sets about designing the house, building the pool and raising the ceiling to fit things like a slide which he used a cheat to allow. ]

So... how ridiculous should we make this pool? I'm kinda feeling like I wanna build like a maze with the pool or something.

[ Gwen shifts some where she's stretched out, regarding the property they're going to build on before nodding. ]

I think that'd be great. It won't be a big maze, but...it'll be fun.

Speaking of fun...

[ She turns to look at her boyfriend, grinning. ]

You inspired me to ask for my iPhone from home. I figured it'd be fun to show you pictures of my dad and my brothers.

[ A pause and then a shrug like what she's going to say next is really not that important or exciting. ]

Plus, there's video of dance recitals and band practices. If you want to see that.

[ Pauses his house construction and looks up at her with a smile. ]

Of course I'd wanna see it. Uh.. I think I actually have some old videos on here-oh wait. You have to see this one.

[ He pauses the sims and pulls up the video he took from Berlin. ]

It's nothing exciting.

[ But she's glad he wants to see. She doesn't have her drum kit here, and was really trying to save up to order it just in case the opportunity arose. She misses her brothers and dad more. ]

And I think I have a couple movies on it? I don't remember.

So says you.

[ Peter says, he thinks seeing anything she's excited about is exciting. It's part of sharing interest and he does happen to know from her gym practices she is quite the dancer. ]

Okay, so I took a bunch of videos when I went to Germany to fight Captain America and kinda spliced them together so this is my trip to Germany.

Uh.. I think I have some from back before the bite if you wanna see those but they really aren't exciting.

You're cute when you're being supportive.

[ That's her way of saying she appreciates him and what he's saying. She loves him for being so supportive, probably the best support she's had for a good, long while. Leaning her shoulder against his for a moment, she turns to watch the video. ]

Sounds exciting. You show me what you want.

Aww thanks.

[ He leans into her a little and presses a quick kiss against her cheek before pressing play on the video. ]

So are you.

[ Gwen grins when he kisses her, returning the kiss to his cheek very quickly before turning to watch the video. It's pretty amazing, watching her boyfriend fight Captain America. She even looks impressed when he steals the shield, rolling her eyes just a little bit at the 'underoos' comment from Mr Stark.

And then both teens lose track of time, watching videos, talking of silly crap from their respective universes. She even talks more about her time in Miles world, about Spider-Ham and Peni and Spider-Noir and how she'd love it if they showed up. He talks more about Ned and his friends at Midtown.

And their talking and laughing is interrupted by, of all things, the webbing Gwen set up for their tent disintegrating and the blankets falling on them. ]

Oh, shit.

[ They really have to remember to set timers for this kind of thing. ]

Oh, my God.

[ Don't mind Gwen, she's going to find this hilarious, if a bit alarming. So there's some laughing from her as she shoves her way out of the blankets. ]

I'm so sorry! Are you okay?

[ Peter shows her a number of videos he took-a few are pre-bite and some are pieces of a documentary he and Ned were putting together for a history project. He's having so much fun just talking to her about whatever they feel like that he completely loses track of time and there's a brief warning from his senses before the blankets come down. ]

[ Peter lets out a squawk and scrambles to get out of the way, the blanket catching him just as he was about to escape the collapsed fort. He pulls the blanket off his head-messing his curls up more than usual and just grins. ]

Uh... whoops.

[May is heading back to their cabin, which as unofficially been dubbed the Spider Cabin (there may or may not be a sigh as she dubbed it that to herself) with a cup of coffee in her hand. Not expecting anything she opens the door and raises an eyebrow]

What are you doing?

[ Honestly, they weren't doing anything they shouldn't be but by the look on Peter's face it might be easy to assume he's guilty. ]

Aunt May!

[ He says, surprised to see her standing there. ]

Nothing! We weren't doing anything the blanket just... collapsed on us. We where looking at stuff on my laptop.

Edited 2019-12-04 14:53 (UTC)

[ Gwen is still kicking off blankets when May arrives. She knows full well they weren't doing anything stupid, so she looks less guilty. Alarmed, sure, but blankets did just fall on them when her webbing broke. She stands and kicks the pile of blankets aside, bits of web rope that hadn't yet turned to dust still visible and moving slightly in a draft. ]

Next time I build a blanket fort, I won't be using webs unless one of us remembers to set a timer.

[ May gets a wave and a small, apologetic smile from Gwen. She knows how bad this looks and for that, she's sorry. ]

Hi, Miss Parker.

[May is glad to see the spider webs though she thinks it was risky to use them, it was better than them being on the webs and therefore crashing to the floor. They wouldn't be hurt in this situation.]

Of course you were. Just don't be on the webs. You should really try and preserve what webbing fluids you do have though in case you need them for something other than this sort of thing.

[ A crash to the floor from such a small height won't hurt the Spider-teens. Embarrass them? Sure. Make them laugh?

You betcha. But they've survived worse and come out unscathed. ]

Oh, we used my webbing. My webshooters don't use cartridges or webfluid. They're designed to turn the moisture in the air into webs. I'm good, there.

[ Don't tell Aunt May about him going through worse! You'll make her worry!! ]

Y-yeah. It's was Gwen's webbing. [ He states, still feeling extremely awkward about the whole situation with his aunt having walked in. At least she didn't think they were doing anything uh... untoward. ] ...M-Mr Stark threatened to take mine away if I made another web hammock...

[ He says just to fill silence. ]

[May nods though she's surprised by the difference in web fluids between the two of them. She didn't know that was a thing.]

Alright, if you don't have to worry about supplies that is different. [Turning to Peter she adds} Which is why I was concerned. I don't want you going back on your word.
