Guys, guys, guys! Guess what I did!

[This is one of those scenarios where the front facing camera opens and it's super unflattering but you just don't care because of who you are as a person. Peter's here and the last thing he cares about is how many chins he's got going on in this broadcast.

He switches the camera around so that everyone can behold the sight before them.

A Spinarak, swinging from tree to tree and doing some super cool acrobatics in the air. Who taught it how to do that? This boy. This boy right here.]

I taught him that! Look at him. Go Spider-Man! You're doing great! Oh man, he's so coo-

[Peter's abruptly cut off as the little spider smashes right into his head and falls to the ground.]

Ow! Geez... aw, bud, you okay? Yeah, take a rest, you deserve it...

[He turns the camera back to himself.]

I guess we have a few..bugs.. to work out.

[:D

aggressive fingerguns]

[This is the greatest thing on the gear. Just laughing.]

Oh my god, did you really do fingerguns after a terrible pun? I think that might be more impressive then the pokemon acrobatics.

[She's half joking.]

You really taught him how to do that?

Terrible? Come on, it was totally punny!

[Okay that one was officially Too Cheesy™ even for him.]

But yeah, I did! He picked it up fast, he's a natural. [He bends down to pat Spinarak on the head, the little guy still kinda just looking daze.]

Boooo

[The classic response to a terrible pun. You earned that, Peter. However she's still grinning afterwards.]

That's really neat. Are you a gymnast or something, back in your world?

[How will his self esteem ever recover from getting booed? He can feel his life force draining, he's fading fast, he's-

It's not that deep.]

Ehhhhhhhh... [Ya kinda dragged that out a little too long, bud.] You could definitely say something like that, yeah.

[Yeah that's not totally suspicious at all. Luckily she's from a world where superheros are fictional so she'll just go with he's possibly a cheerleader or something and embarrassed about it.]

Cool. I think the closest I got to ...anything like that was going around the park on the local island. Though it was mostly climbing rock walls and the occasional family slash friend, heart attack inducing jump.

I'm Alex by the way.

[Yeah! Yeah!! There you go. He's totally a cheerleader, let's go with that.]

Oh really? That's awesome! I'm something of a climber myself, too. You could say I'm an expert, actually. With a side of parkour.

I'm Peter... Peter Parkour. [FINGERGUNS]

I've gotta stop while I'm ahead. Geez.

Yeah it's impossible to get around Edwards Island if you're not willing to climb a few rocks now and then, and I've been going there since I was a kid.

[And currently trapped in a timeloop forever there with means lots of climbing but yeah, let's just ignore that bit for the moment.]

[The fingerguns again make her laugh and she waves a hand.]

Oh no, I'm sure you can totally bring the trend back by yourself.

I'm Alex. Nice to meet you, Peter.

Hey, it's good to meet you too! [He's making her laugh, so he'll take that as a good sign and not that he's being a total loser. Even if he is being a total loser.] I haven't seen anybody with blue hair since I accidentally walked in on my school's anime club, I gotta say you're rocking it. You, uh, been here long?

[It's a good sign. Also her best friend at home is considered a total loser by a lot of people but those people are assholes in her mind.]

It's teal, but uh thanks.

No anime club here though. Just grabbed the first hair dye I saw and...

[She shrugs slightly.]

I liked it, so I kept the same colour.

Depends on who you talk to. Compared to the people who have been here for years. Not even close. But about two months now.

You might want to train him a little more, you're right.

It'd give him a real leg up.

[ :D ]

[Two can play at this game, Peter Parker.]

Ohhhh!

[10/10, would laugh again.]

Great joke, sir! I'm not sure I can top that one just yet... mostly cuz I probably have a small concussion. No biggie, it's fine. [Yeah, that's his excuse.]

[Oh no, it's Sasha 2.0]

You -- don't really need to call me "sir".

And that doesn't sound fine.

[Look, Peter, take it from someone who uses that excuse constantly.]

Oh! What should I call you then? I'm Peter.

[He waves a hand dismissively.]

It's totally fine.

Shiro -- just Shiro. I'm not that old.

[Har har]

You sure? It might not hurt to get checked out.

Alright, you got it! Mr. Shiro it is!

[Is he being a shit to divert Shiro away from the getting checked out angle, or is he just that polite? Honestly the world will never know.]

What --

No. No, just. Shiro.

[oh god this is Sasha all over again.]

That's... that's what I said. Mr. Shiro.

[Okay he really is just that polite. The mystery is solved.

But also he's kind of just a shit. It's a real 50/50.]

You -- [Breathe. Focus. Patience. Patience and fucking focus okay.] -- it's just a little too formal.

For someone you met with... spider puns.

Ohhhhh. I get it, it makes you feel old, doesn't it?

[It's not about formality at all, it's just an old people thing. He's onto you.

Also he totally made you forget about the concussion, so this is a victory on his part.]

Sure, fine. Let's go with that.

[SIGH...]

Nice to meet you?

[DON'T SIGH AT HIM LIKE THAT]

Nice meeting you too!

[He glances down at Spider-Man again, once more realizing he's still down for the count.]

Oh shoot, I should probably get this little guy to a doctor or something. See you around, Mr. Shiro, sir!

[HASTY CLICK

he knows what he did.]

The landing needs some work. Still pretty good arachnobatics, though.

[Now you've done it, Peter.]

I'm so mad that I didn't think of that pun first, what the heck is wrong with me?!

[That was. Honestly next level. He's impressed.]

Experience.

[Puns in this caliber of terribleness take time.]

Wordplay's kind of like a muscle, it needs practice, take some linguistic pun-ishment so it can heal and get stronger.
