Okay so!

[ Here's Peter again, he maybe drinking a Monster Energy drink right at that moment. You can also here the lovely sound of Gwen Stacy giggling in background which is making him giggle. ]

Shh! You're making me laugh. [ And this has absolutely got to be done with a straight face. ]

Gwen and I are going through my laptop and I completely forgot I had this song.

[ cue this song playing over the intercom from Peter's computer. ]

[ Also, both Spider-Teens dissolve into a fit of giggles. ]

You're both stuck?

[ There's a brief silence and a laugh. ]

There's a lot that can be inferred from that. You sure you don't wanna clarify?

[hashtagparkerluck]

[ Wow, thanks random stranger. ]

Okay, so we were both laughing about rick rolling the whole train-you know, as one does when they're bored, and then Gwen-my girlfriend, started to fall off her web because she's also part spider-and I went to grab her to stop her but somehow I fell out of mine-or half way-my foot got caught in the web and then I tried to pull it undone but it's really sticky and then somehow Gwen got caught in it? And now we're just kinda hanging here.

But in my defense-this is a new web fluid and I was just testing it out to make sure it works-my usual web fluid starts losing its adhesiveness the moment it's exposed to the air.

[ He doesn't want to show how out-of-touch he is by not understanding the concept of "rick rolling", so he just blows right past that. At least he was right about the potential illicit-sounding nature of their meeting.

Wait, did he say they were both part spider? What? Okay, sure. Not the most important thing right now. ]

And you're sure you don't need help getting down? I mean, you said it'll dissolve but when? And won't that hurt when you fall? What if you're asleep and fall on your neck?

[ He stops himself. Dammit, he's sounding too much like a dad. Old habits die hard... ]

More importantly, are you guys okay?

[hashtagparkerluck]

[ Peter just shrugs despite that Jack can't actually see it. ]

Eh, it's happened before-falling out the web, I mean. They usually only last about two hours but this is a different version so I don't exactly know when it'll dissolve but it's fine. Mr Stark will cut us down if he needs to.

And, again-part spider-we have the proportional strength and durability of a Spider. Which is to say-it takes a lot to hurt us.

[chronosexual]

"If he needs to"... sounds pretty conditional to me. I mean... I'm here. I won't judge you. I might laugh a little if you're [ He clears his throat. ] compromised, but hey I was young and dumb once.

I'm glad you've got durability but I'm also pretty sure you've got vertebrae, and not an exoskeleton, considering I haven't heard anyone shrieking so far about giant spiders walking around yet...

[hashtagparkerluck]

What? No! Of course not! We were just listening to music-that's all!

[ It's the truth but his voice sure did squeak. ]

Trust me, I've had a lot worse than falling about four feet. I'll be fine.

[chronosexual]

Uh-huh.

[ Maybe they were, but again, he was a teenager once and knew what couples tended to get up to when they were alone. And then there was the addition of "web fluid".. There were a lot of reasons for Jack to be suspect, but no reasons to judge that he could see. ]

Hey, if you're sure. Do you post often? Or do I just have to wait to run into you if I wanna shake your hand about all this?

[hashtagparkerluck]

We really weren't!

[ He'd say something about them being too young-which they are-but that doesn't really stop a lot of people. ]

Sometimes-when I get bored. But I don't know why you'd wanna shake my hand over it-I'm pretty much the poster boy for Murphy's law. Pretty much anyone you talk to on the train will confirm it.

[chronosexual]

Hey, you make good content, at least from what I understand so far. You made me laugh. That's worth something, right?

And if I were to ask anyone about you, what name would I use?

[hashtagparkerluck]

I mean, you wouldn't really need a name-just ask about the kid that's a complete disaster-they'll know it's me.

But, it's Peter, Peter Parker.

[chronosexual]

I've met a few disaster kids even just being on here a little while. Making a name for yourself is always better... or worse, depending on how you use it.

Nice to meet you, Peter. I'm Jack Harkness. Maybe we can mitigate disasters together in the future? You sound like a good kid.

[hashtagparkerluck]

Nice to meet you sir.

And maybe, but I'm probably gonna be grounded for awhile.

[chronosexual]

'Grounded'? What? Cos you made a mess that apparently dissolves within hours? Doesn't sound very fair to me. Who's grounding you, kid? Maybe I can talk to them, maybe reduce your sentence some?

[hashtagparkerluck]

no, I'm not supposed to be using it on the train-Mr Stark he'd take my web shooters if he caught me wasting the fluid again. And My Aunt's on his side.

[ Plus he's not supposed to be drinking energy drinks because of a poor sleeping schedule. ]

[chronosexual]

What? Why not? I mean, if you made it, shouldn't you be using it? I mean, it's not like there's a whole lot of space on these carriages anyway. If it all dissolves pretty quickly, I don't see the problem.

But that's just me.

You said you make the fluid, right? Are the components hard to come by

[hashtagparkerluck]

Well, kinda on the train-I'm only supposed to use them if I have to. Like on missions and stuff since I can also use them as a weapon-sorta. More to just web things up or use to get out bad situations-but since I don't always have the right ingredients I used back home-I've been trying to come up with something similar but it's a little stickier than I was really going for.

[ Hence how he got stuck in the web. ]

[chronosexual]

What makes you "have to" use them? Seems kinda arbitrary on a train, doesn't it?

[ Granted, if he were a kid with access to that kind of material, Jack can't say he wouldn't do the same. Hell, he might do worse. ]

That's all well and good but, if you're stuck and can't get down... do you need someone t cut you down? These carriages can be pretty narrow." He still wasn't sure about how these kids worked, but maybe he'd learn smething?

[hashtagparkerluck]

Not for recreational purposes.

[ Peter's been in trouble for this very thing once or twice. ]

Mostly for emergencies, missions, self defense- [ Give him a second, he's still trying to work on getting himself free. ]

Nah, I already told Mr Stark-he's got a laser.

[chronosexual]

Well... I guess that makes sense. Still, maybe you can say you were trying to practice? Or, hey, accidents happen sometimes.

...Did you say he's got a laser?

[hashtagparkerluck]

Yup!

Well.. it's actually more like he just really concentrates the repulsor beam from the Iron Man suit using [ Insert science bullshit about how the suit works because I sure as hell don't know. ]

So, you know, pretty much a laser.

[chronosexual]

[ What's a repulsor beam? Jack is fairly savvy with all sorts of tech... he knows what repulsors are, but he didn't know they could be concentrated into beams. Interesting. ]

Sounds pretty laser-like to me.

Well, best of luck to you. Hope you don't get in too much trouble.

[hashtagparkerluck]

Yeah, you and me both..

[ Peter says, not looking forward to it when May finds out about what he's been up to. ]
