happy holidays, Dee :) if I don't talk to you until then, have an awesome Christmas! (if you celebrate!)

you guys know me at this point, I go where the wind takes me, and right now it's just pointing me elsewhere

// reactivating my Peter and going back to black suit just for this

Erupting into a vicious cough!

"O-Ow! Hey!"

"You... You're not-"

Looking him up and down. Making a face.

"... Y'know- mad?"

"Pfft... Felicia, you're far from being a loser," he murmured, but offered a smile anyhow.

"... Thank you."

"Agh! I'm not crying, you're crying!"

Spider-Five!

Merry Christmas!

... Wait, omigosh, there's MORE?!

His eyes widened.

"Wh-"

Ben flushed slightly, turning his head away with a puff of his cheeks.

"Me and-? Pff! No way-"

He's becoming increasingly nervous now.

"..."

Rubbing his neck with a sigh.

"Cat's outta the bag, huh? How'd you find out?"

Sheepishly grinning at him, closing an eye.

"Well, sure. I've got you, pal."

"Hope you're somewhere safe, Janine... I know I screwed up a hell of a lot back then."

Furrowing his brows.

"Sometimes I think my whole *life* is one bad experience."

"If only there was some sort of device that could let me erase that from my brain..."
