[Public] Journal Entry: Peter Parker

[om_spiderman]

Hi everyone! Newbie here. I was told this was a thing people do, so here I am doing the thing.

I’m Peter Parker. You can also call me Spiderman, but I kinda prefer to keep Spiderman as a ‘when the mask is on only’ kind of thing. I’m trying to maintain some illusion of a secret identity.

Stats next, right?

I’m 15 and I’m from Queens, NY. My mutation affects my physiology, lets me walk on just about any surface, alerts me to danger. The web-shooters are homemade.

So, yeah. Hi.

Hi - I'm Noriko, or Surge. Blue-haired Asian chick with metal gauntlets - you can't miss me. Electricity's my thing. Welcome to the school - looking forward to meeting you.

[om_spiderman]

Yup. Spider guy, spider dude, spiderman... Spider-menace if you work at the Daily Bugle. That's me!

I'm so in for this Danger Gym business.

[om_spiderman]

It was a little weird, yeah. Thanks.

[om_spiderman]

Thanks! I figured what's a spider without web, right?

The webbing's a biocable. I'd be happy to show you the web-shooters in action, but I'd prefer to keep how it all works to myself. Kinda a trade secret, you know?

Nice to meet you, Angie!

[om_spiderman]

Basically I'm faster, stronger, have better reflexes, can take a harder hit... That sort of thing. I heal faster than your average person too.

You can copy powers?

What kind of ball?

[om_spiderman]

Thanks, Noriko!

Are the metal gauntlets a fashion statement or power accessory?

[om_mimic]

Awesome, and good to know. You never know! Yeah, I mimic mutations, skills and knowledge. It's pretty awesome - until whoever I'm copying walks away and I go back to being just me.

Basketball! We got a regular game set up on Saturday mornings, if you want in.

[om_surge]

The hair's the fashion statement.

I'd probably say Oracle would be you're best bet on campus. She's a graduate who's sticking around, cyberpath. She can control computers and even write code just by thinking.

[om_spiderman]

Captain Canada? And people are hassling me about Spiderman?

[om_ghost]

His real codename is much prettier, I'm just bitter about his going.

[om_spiderman]

A+ on the codename choice then

[om_spiderman]

I could give it a try?

[om_ghost]

Did I successfully convey dry bitterness through implied derision? I'm working on that.

[om_spiderman]

I was convinced!

[om_mimic]

That's the spirit! 10 am Saturday. See you then, dude!
