[ Peter shakes his head. ] No, all I had time to do was ... panic and websling here, until you texted me. It just - it all happened so fast. She's gonna be worried though. She's gonna wonder where I am.
[ He rubs his face with his free hand, the one not still in Gwen's grasp where it's perfectly content to stay, an automatic feeling of safety and feeling anchored to something. His mind is reeling, but at least he isn't alone with his own thoughts.
He leans into Gwen so their arms are pressed side-by-side. ] I should probably call her. And Happy. He probably knows too. But after that? What happens? What happens to Spider-Man?
[ This is kind of a nightmare. At the beginning, when Ned learned who he was, he'd wanted to tell everyone like it was some kind of key, opening the door to celebrity status and being revered by all. A superhero, like the Avengers.
But so much has changed since then, so much had happened ... it feels right, somehow, to have this other side of him kept secret, something he can escape to and escape from whenever he wants.
It kinda sucks to have that taken away from him. ]
