Peter Parker Quest: Issue #36>Rules: http://pastebin.com/w5G3aG3Y>Character sheet: http://pastebin.com/q1AqTT5h>My twitter: https://twitter.com/QuestOpCosgrove>Archives: http://suptg.thisisnotatrueending.com/archive.html?tags=Peter%20Parker%20Quest>Story Arc database: http://pastebin.com/fR0Z1SNKIt doesn’t take long to process the line to get inside the school- though you do have to momentarily take off your mask and show your student ID to the security, seems like they don’t want someone slipping in unnoticed. There’s a punch and snack table that’s currently unoccupied you could spend your time at. There’s also, presumably, Flash over there in a Spider-man costume. There’s also a line for a costume competition. The party just had started and you arrived a little early thanks to Uncle Ben, but even so there’s currently not too many people in here just yet.Harry’s looking around excitedly, especially at the girls in costume. “Hey, Pete, I’m going to go hit on some girls.”>[ ] Stand by the punch bowl and let time pass.>[ ] Go talk to Flash>[ ] Go be a wingman for Harry>[ ] Try to persuade Harry to another course of action>[ ] Sign up for the costume competition>[ ] Write in

>>28846725>Go wingman for Harry; but before that "So, I noticed you seemed concerned about my neighbor not having many friends. You know, she is a girl who likes video games and I imagine giant robots if the model kits in her room are any indication," wait for initial response. "Well, I thought she could use a friend besides me...though I'm not sure I count...we have an adversarial ancient history,"
>>28846725I feel that this needs to be posted
>>28846725>>[ ] Go be a wingman for HarryThere's no way this doesn't end hilariously.
>>28846877this is actually a good idea
New issue? Cue theme song.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7SpWAnBjdNg
>>28846877I like the way you think!...but are we sure we're not going to be condemning him to some horrible fate?
>>28846893SPECTACULAR SPECTACULAR SPIDER-THREAD

>>28846877I back this.>>28846920This is Harry. In most parts of the Marvel Multiverse that is a given.
>>28846877Seconding this.
>>28846877Yeah that sounds good.
>>28846920The fate of any boy from Watemote who tries to express interest in Tomoko?This will be good, we will have no way of knowing the horror we have unleashed on Harry.There is the off chance that they'll be good for one another....or they'll be bad for one another in the best way Harry Goblin and Mary Murder incoming...slaughtering as a couple, because you can't spell slaughter without laughter
>>28846725>>[ ] Go be a wingman for Harry>>[ ] Sign up for the costume competition
>>28846944Fair enough.He's seen MJ before, so we might as well bring up the possibility. If he's not interested in her, we can be his wingman here at the party anyway.
>>28846948>>28846945>>28846944>>28846920>>28846886When I hit, I hit.
>>28846970I feel like Harry has always been the kind of guy who just wants to be accepted for who he is, and have someone to talk to about the dorky things he likes.His father certainly never gave him any real acceptance.I could see it. This Harry Osborn and this Mary Jane together.
>>28846725>>[ ] Go be a wingman for HarryMust make him love us.
>>28847024>>28846980I like this idea
>>28846725>>[ ] Go be a wingman for Harry>>[ ] Sign up for the costume competition>>28846877This is a good plan. It might not even backfire horrifically.
Mj would think harry has shit taste
>Writing
>>28847122And the can argue it, and she can actually talk to someone. And we get a heartwarming feeling for having helped at least two people find love...now if only we could get Gwen over us.
>>28847024"Harry I don't understand what you see in these chinese cartoons you keep sending to me. I have no idea what nani, kawaii, desu or any of that means. Are there supposed to be subtitles? Why are they all about little girls? Is there something you need to tell me Harry? I'll see you next thursday at 6:45 as scheduled."
>>28847122>implying they wouldn't have the best angry sex ever after heated arguments about who is best girl in Katawa Shoujo.
>>28847009Um, we should probably warn Harry the MJ has some...issues that she needs to get over, oh, wait, we told him she stabbed herself with a fork at lunch. I think, being a smart guy, Harry probably has a good idea of what to expect.
>>28846725>[X] Go talk to Flash>[X] Go be a wingman>[X] Sign up for the costume competition
>>28847178>liking KSMJ would vomit
>>28847185"Son, never stick your dick in crazy." Mr. Osborn retorted, applying another layer of green foundation to himself.
>>28847178And they could totally share psychotic breaks with reality with each other! We could get a pair of Chrismas Goblins out of this!
>>28847175"You just don't understand, dad! It's Japanese. Not Chinese. And they're NOT cartoons, they're ANIME! It's full of amazing stories, plotline and action that a baka gaijin like yourself would never appreciate! Watch for a second."
>>28847219Christmas Elves. Hanukkah Goblins.
>>28847219Harry... I... I'm the real Carnage.... NO WAY! I'm Hobgoblin!... ... ... LETS GO FUCK UP SPIDER-MAN!
>>28846725>[ ] Sign up for the costume competition>[ ] Go be a wingman for Harry>[ ] Write in: first sign up for competition together especially if harry has others in whatever this getup is. then be wing man for him in what ever way if mj is there ship them if not just be a bro maybe even get flash in on it (they are best friends in bitches love spider-man) ps. great quest first time posting as it is 4:20 am here
>>28847240>Peter is present for this conversation."I am...um...wishing the two of you luck?"
>>28847230or rather:"the fight-scenes are cool."
>>28847175>nani, kawaii, desu in the subtitlesWhat is this, Hong Kong fansubs from 1998?
>>28847234I thought the Hanukkah Goblins were the color of fool's gold?
>>28847257>MJ comes in an extremely well-made Asuka plugsuit from EVA>"Sweet mother of-!... Uh, Pete, I'll catch you later."
>>28847298Harry torrents from TV-Nihon.
>>28847316Is she even here? I doubt she'd go to a ball
>>28847355No. She stabbed herself with a fork just thinking about being around that many people.
>>28847355She stabbed herself with a fork just thinking about being at this party. She isn't going to be here.
>>28847351Hey, Hulu and Crunchyroll are free and have good subs, especially with the simulcasts.
>>28847165Would you all mind rolling me a fellowship roll?>1d20+2, dc17
>>28847355>>28847257which is why there was a if not clause
Rolled 16 + 2>>28847401
Rolled 18 + 2>>28847401I have a bad feeling about this roll
>>28847298I think he was implying Harry sent him unsubbed undubbed stuff.Because he's THAT kind of person.
Rolled 17 + 2>>28847401
>>28847417>>28847411 no more rolls
>>28847371We suggest he try for MJ when normal school hours resume or we try to set something up if nothing pans out tonight....nothing is going to pan out tonight.Calling it now, some girls have noticed Peter getting into shape and someone is going to ask for a dance "No, sorry, I'm seeing someone." and we leave it a mystery to get the school's rumor mill BLAZING that Parker is dating someone, then imagine things exploding when people find out Parker is dating Felicia Hardy the new girl
>>28847417and I was wrong yay
>>28847411>>28847417>>28847425Hell yeah, we really need to up our fellowship
>>28847411>>28847417>>28847425And there goes all our luck for the night. Crap.
>>28847430We did get kissed by her in a hallway. People probably already know. Everyone knows.
>>28847436Remember, success doesn't mean bad things won't happen.
>>28847437Not really. It's good enough, I think.Besides, in our new costume, we get +3 Fellowship anyway.
>>28847411>>28847417>>28847425
>>28847460Yeah it usually means dealing with more bad things will happen because people think you can handle it
>>28847430if some girls ask us for dance we just go super nerd and be baffled for some time. if they don't give up by then we step all over their toes while doing our best at "dancing"+ dancing with some girl does not=infidelity
>>28847461My friend you forget, this is Peter Parker Quest not Spider-Man Quest, most of our important social rolls are going to happen out of costume. Heck, do you think we're going to get costume modifiers for other heros that already know our identity? Doubtful.
>>28847461Just on principle I feel we should focus more on improving stats over buying skill stuff, just so we have a stronger base to work with.
>>28847545Which is why we need to change the emphasis! Turn Peter into our alter ego and live full time as Spider-Man!And then we do the Peter Parker No More arc.
>>28847661I'm not quite there yet, but I admit that most of the basic skills I consider essential have already been purchased at this point.
>>28847679Thiss isn't Homeless Mutant Quest. We're Spider-man, not Batman.
>>28847679Yes! Become Mr. Fantastic! Do. It!
>>28847725Never.
“Hey, shouldn’t we sign up for the costume contest first?”Harry pauses before nodding. “Yeah, that’s a good point. Thanks, Pete.”The two of you head over towards the line. As the both of you are standing in line, you look at your costume before inspiration hits you. “Hey, Harry, you like all of this anime stuff, right?”Harry pauses at you, looking slightly unsure. “…Yeah. Why?”“Wellllll, I noticed you seemed concerned about my neighbor not having many friends. You know, she is a girl who likes video games and I imagine giant robots if the model kits in her room are any indication." “…the girl who doesn’t talk to anybody and stabbed herself in lunch? Are you really trying to hook me up with her?”You shrug noncommittally."Well, I thought she could use a friend besides me...though I'm not sure I count. We have an… adversarial ancient history,"Harry stares at you. Really stares at you. “Look, I’ll try to talk to her if you‘re around at lunch. I’m not promising anything more than that.” He signs up, followed by you. “Hey, man, I’m sorry. You wanted to hit on some girls, right?”Harry immediately cheers up as the two of you go around. You try to help, but Harry… Harry isn’t good at this. He’s shot down, despite his best attempts. Well, the fact that almost nobody knows who he is doesn’t help as he tries to explain it. You, on the other hand, have gotten a few high-fives and ‘Aw yeah, Zechs!’”It didn’t improve Harry’s mood.>1/2
>>28847679>>28847725Ha. Ha. No.
>>28847722
>>28847661>>28847681Depends on the skill and depends on the stats, but to be honest, I like buying skills more then stats
>>28847755Eventually, the two of you are sitting at the snack table as Harry mopes into a cup of punch. Flash is still around as Spider-man. There’s someone in elaborate costume that’s in white. There’s also a Superman going around with a camera. You also see the substitute teacher, Herman Schultz looking miserable watching the party.>[ ] Sit around with Harry until its time to go.>[ ] Go talk with Flash>[ ] Go talk with the person in white>[ ] Go talk with Superman>[ ] Talk with the teacher>[ ] Write in
>>28847725No. We shall never become Richards.It would be so easy... that's why we can't do it.

>>28847824I'm going to be surprised if Flash is one of the few, if only other person besides Harry to know who Peter is dressed as.And then he starts denying he watches anything that has to do with Gundam, and starts digging himself deeper from there.

Harry is having a terrible night and you guys want to ditch him to play social butterfly? Not cool.
>>28847785>[ ] Sit around with Harry until its time to go.We should try and make him feel better.

>>28847888We're here for Harry guys, as much as we want to talk to potential interests, our bro needs us

Harrys having a night that sounds a lot like my past few Halloweens have gone... shot down left right and center, no one knows who you are, and other things weighing you down. Them feels.

>>28847873Whatevering this.
>>28848059pls dun blog
>>28848060I'm sure that could be useful. Maybe if we get attacked by old man Vulture and we have to depart right after we've disabled his wings. MK might even win!
>>28848146Sorry, was remembering one of the few issues I've read. 80% sure he was hallucinating the rotting corpse talking to him. Not entirely sure he murdered the fuck out of the right people or that anything in that issue actually happened outside his head.
>>28847947I laughed so hard at that. Cosgrove you brilliant bastard.
You think about going around and talking to people, but considering the state Harry’s in, it wouldn’t be cool to just leave him here. You sit down and decide to make some small talk, asking him about his different shows and interests. It’s obvious Harry knows what you’re doing, but he appreciates it nevertheless.Eventually, you see Flash nearing you so you call him over. “Hey, Flash, over here!”Harry leans in and whispers, looking panicked. “…Peter what are you doi- Hey Flash!”‘Spider-man’ pauses and salutes the both of you. “Greetings, Citizens, it is I, Spider-man! How are you doing?”You smile as you wave him over to the chair as Flash gratefully collapses and lifts up his mask, and drains a cup of punch. “Thanks… Parker?”At your nod, you see him smile. “I don’t know how Spidey does this, I’m burning up in this costume.”You try to draw Flash and Harry into a mutual conversation, but all it turns into is Flash’s confusion at whatever Harry’s interests are and Harry’s lack of interest in sports. Eventually Flash shakes his head. “Look, Osborn, it isn’t about getting people to like what you like, its about you liking what you like. I’ve gotten a bunch of comments tonight for my costume, not all of them good, but I like my costume so I’m happy to be in it. If you made your costume just to impress others, you’re doing it wrong.”With that he drains another cup of punch before standing up, saluting, and walking off. You see Harry considering the words as an announcement comes on. ‘Will contestants one though ten please step onto the stage for tonight’s costume contest.”Harry looks at the ticket he’s gotten ‘Ten.’ “I’ll be back soon, Pete!” He runs off as someone takes the seat he was in. It’s the individual in white who sits down and stares at you, as if puzzling something out.>[ ] Stay quiet>[ ] Converse (write in)>[ ] Pay attention to the competition>[ ] Write in

>>28848626I wonder if this is how well Harry does in the costume contest.
>>28848666This is the perfect time to panic!
>>28848677How the hell do you even relate that to this?
>>28848705Panic time?
>>28848686I'm fine with him taking fourth. With any luck that should give his ego a bit of a boost. Especially considering that no one here knows who the hell he's supposed to be.
>>28848626How is Cos checking something bad?
>>28848711I'm thinking that the Halloween party doubled for homecoming.
>>28848756.... wat
>>28848740Are you new here?
>>28848735We still haven't gone up yet mind you. But it may be audience or judge reaction to his costume.>>28848756Homecoming is usually in November. My town rotates Thanksgiving Game every other year with a nearby one and when we have it it is homecoming.
>>28848756What. Why would you think that?
>>28848769No, I'm trying to be optimisticWe're going to break our promise aren't we?
You mainly pay attention to the competition, but the person sitting next to you is a bit unnerving with their smile. “Uh, hi. Who are you supposed to be tonight?”The smile grows a bit wider and the person picks up a cup of punch and swirls it. “Oh, I’m the most terrible monster the world has ever known.”You raise an eyebrow before paying attention again. Harry’s last up, but there’s some generic costumes as well. The person next to you is still staring at you, not drinking their punch. You really hope they don’t try to throw it at you. “…Can I help you?”The girl, her voice silky shakes her head with a wry grin. “Oh, it’s just that I like your costume, I’m a big fan of the color red, you know.”You give a noncommittal grunt as the girl scoots a bit closer.“Do I know you?”The girl only gives an enigmatic smile as you watch Harry try his best to a very lukewarm response. As the announcer calls your number you stand up and head to the stage quickly, passing a disappointed looking Harry. You stand up on stage, waiting to be called forward.>[ ] Act goofy>[ ] Act refined>[ ] Act Evil>[ ] Don’t act, just get it done and over with>[ ] Write in
>>28848827Honestly? Because I don't expect Cos to hold whatever we picked in reserve until the actual homecoming rolls around next month as that assumes our school will still be standing then. It's already been bombed by a villain once you know.

>>28848864>[ ] Act refinedAnyone think we should try for a speech?
>>28848947>And let me guess: Our spider-sense isn't going off. because MJ doesn't set off our spider-sense any more.I really don't think she's immune to our spider-sense because that doesn't make any fucking sense.If she isn't setting our spider-sense off, then for some reason she no longer wants to hurt us.Or it was a false positive the whole time and our spider-sense recalibrated after knowing what killing intent REALLY felt like.
>>28848899>>28848947If it were MJ, I think we'd get at least an observation check to see if we can recognize her.
>>28848911This can only end poorly.
>>28848947Or Homecoming won and the symbiote that Future Carnage placed on us went and bonded with her. Which would mean she would no longer give off spider-sense vibes.
>>28848864>"...I'm a big fan of red you know.">Flash is dressed up as Spider-Man, probably the first uniform>'lot a redBye bye friend, it's was nice knowing you.
>>28848981My guess is it's because after merging with the Venom symbiote our spider-sense doesn't recognize symbiotes as a threat, much like how Gwen's spider-sense didn't recognize Venom as a threat because of Carnage.
>>28849017That sounds like contrived bullshit.
>>28849026Ok, aren't the symbionts still under lock and key in this time period? Did I miss something?
>>28849020We need to fucking watch this girl for any moves she makes
>>28849026Why would MJ be or have a symbiote? That's also not how symbiotes work.
>>28849026But that's not how it fucking works because Carnage STILL set off our Spider-Sense.The only reason Venom didn't was because it had our blood, thus we recognized it as "us".In this timeline, that is not the case.
>>28848864...well, now we know where the symbiote is.Or at least what it was based on.>>[ ] Act refined
>>28849032Future Carnage did mention that it had been forced to do something desperate while being cradled by Alice. I think most of us can agree a part of the symbiote latching on for the ride may be a possibility.

>>28849056Actually, didn't it take some of our blood in that flashback from when we were a little kid in our dad's lab?
>>28849026Wasn't that because the symbiote was part of us? I mean Carnage still set it off despite being symbiote
>>28849091It took our blood in the future.

Is low good or bad for d100 rolls?
>>28849213If Harry doesn't win, I hope us in the costume he made does.
>>28849239I hope lower is better
>>28849260Lower is better with d100, correct?
Cos has had d100s be for going low in the past so Wren might have done good this time for all we know.

>>28849281I doubt it. Why would we have a negative forty modifier to something?Not like it matters since we're out of Spectacular Points and I don't think anyone wants to risk a reroll.
>>28849301We rolled an 11 on a d100 roll. That's good, stupid.
>>28849307Or we lost a costume contest pretty badly.

Back, catching up on the happe- fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuck.Intensify this...oh dear.
>>28849518I still don't understand what has intensified. The only thing that seems intense is one more creepy notCARNAGE.As if we don't have enough of those already.
>>28849539Harry's depression is intensifying. This may lead to Harry turning to experimental performance enhancer a or just drugs off the street.
>>28849515we should probably help harry, Any ideas?
>>28849570>"Hey try this new drug; it's called Crocodile.">"... what does it do?">"It fucks you up man! The fuck, you some kind of cop or square or whatever?">"f-fine... h-">"Two large."And then Harry became the Lizard.
>Fellowship- DC17,result-20, Success!>Competition result- -29!You take a deep breath as you try to recall everything you’ve learned about this character from Harry. Taking a deep breath, you try to create the image of a refined gentleman. Approaching the microphone, you give a confident smirk.“Citizens of… No, Humanity, hear me! For too long our world has been brutalized by the evil Earth Federation. I tried to not involve myself, but no more. I’ve realized that unless I intervene, history will repeat like an endless waltz, the three beats of war, peace, and revolution will continue forever! “Can this world truly withstand another generation of these miserable battles? Unless we stop this process now more soldiers like ourselves will become necessary. If that happens history will continue to repeat itself!”You grip at your collar as you clench your fist before swinging it out, wide. “I’d sooner burn this world myself and be a monster in the history books than be a hero continuing this pointless strife. That’s why, with this asteroid known as Axis, I will set history onto a new path.“No doubt you’d try to stop me, so I’ll be waiting atop Axis. If you wish to preserve this wretched status quo, you’ll have to kill me with your own hands, Amuro!”Dramatically, you raise your hand as you speech reaches its finally before pointing it dramatically at Harry as the crowd erupts into cheers. You give a gentlemanly bow before stepping back waiting for the rest to finish up.There’s still another round as you step off the stage. The woman in white’s still smiling at you, but you’re hesitant to give anything other than a glancing look. She’s a bit… creepy.

Guys, this girl has something to do with the plot most likely. There has to be something up with her. We can still talk to Harry but why no selection on investigating this girl?

>>28849806She's both Gwen and MJ.
>>28849787No, Peter you are the CARNAGE.
>>28849787Should have let DOOM handle it.
>>28849787I think Cosgrove has been watching The Following. Shepard has himself a flock of lambs in white out to give themselves a red baptism.
>>28849787All of them. All of the suspects.Naturally, we'd be caught flatfooted when it turns out to be Richar- no, he's and ass, we'd expect that.It'll be Uncle Ben.
>>28849819FUUUUUUUUUUCK
>>28849818He's trying. But for all intents and purposes, the Carnage Killer is in jail awaiting trial.DOOM might be as wary as we are, but we have no way to prove anything.Apparently when he turned himself in, the police found damning evidence too. Let's not forget what he did to Flint Marko. It's hard to say that he's NOT Carnage until we know more.
>Writing>>28849819The what? I'll have to look into this.
>>28849860He's a priest.Priests take confessions.As long as Carnage is a member of Cletus's congregation, it'd be easy for him to get the information that police wouldn't have released to the public.Which means its probably MJ.

You go and sit down next to Harry before nervously tapping your fingers on your legs. “So, did I do the character justice? I tried to remember everything you told me, but I don’t know if I got it right.”Harry stares at you before shaking his head. “No, you actually quoted several different characters from a different series, but overall I suppose it was alright. Didn’t know you were that good at acting.”You shrug. “I just tried my best. More importantly, do you know who that girl is? She’s been knida creeping me out.”You point over at the mystery girl as Harry stares at her before shaking his head. “Can’t place the face, sorry. She’s someone at our school though. Wouldn’t have gotten in without an ID.”You see Harry pull out his phone. “Just a sec, Pete. I’ll be back.”You see him call on his phone a distance away. Looks like he’ll be a minute.

>>28850134Oh, no need to leave then. We said we'll be here for a couple of hours and then come back
>>28850061Do we have a camera-phone? If so, we really need to snap a quick picture of the creepy girl. Maybe Felicia or someone else will know who she is...
>>28850196Taking pictures of strangers is creepy too.
>>28850196That's actually a smart idea. *Covertly snap pic*Text it to Felicia. This girl is staring at me and giving off a creepy vibe. Do you recognize her from any of your classes?
>>28850176>Should we call Felicia to tell her we'll be back in about 40 minutes unless disaster strikes?Christ, she knows we're staying for a couple hours, shut up.
>>28850179Couple of hours = 2 hours we've still got some time.Once Harry gets back, we'll tell him that we gotta go.

>>28850245I'm sure there are plenty of people taking pictures. One, it's a high school dance. Two, really nice costumes. Still, probably not the smartest choice, and possibly conspicuous so I don't vote for it.
>>28850276Phil Urich is Superman, isn't he. If we went looking for him, we would have found Goblin mid changing. Now Goblin is going to blow in with creepy girl.I feel a bad night ahead for Peter with little opportunity to quick change.

You know we are assuming this creepy girl is important but what if she is just creepy because its part of her costume.
>>28846877Wanna know something funny? I thought about having peter go down to a hobby shop and get a Char's Red Zaku model for her. Old old responce but eh.
>>28850357That...is a possibility.
>>28850357Even if she was cosplaying as the least creepy thing in the world she's still constantly staring at us.
>>28850345Yeah. If we need to change, it'll have to be somewhere no one would be. Considering people would be running for the exit if Hobbs or Sandy show up, we'll just jump out a 1st floor window, climb to the roof, and change while sticking our Char costume somewhere inconspicuous like up in a tree.
I'm guessing she is cosplaying Josef Mengele
>>28850368>>28850370Let's talk to the teacher after this.
>>28850365Heh, that would have been fun.

You might as well deal with this. You could probably take a picture and ask Felicia, but that might cause awkward questions. You could ask a teacher, but looking at the substitute over there, it seems like he’d probably brush you off- guy does not seem to be having a good time.Might as well deal with this yourself.Harry looks like he’ll be a minute, anyway.Getting up, you head over towards the girl. She’s leaning against the wall, grinning at you. As you approach she quietly applauds before pausing.Her eyes watch you- its unnerving because there’s no negative intent against you or anything like that. Your Spider-sense is silent. “That was a pretty good performance, Peter.”You glance at the girl. “So, who are you, really?”The girl grins, her eyes crinkling shut. “If you don’t know, I’m not going to tell you. Besides, I’m enjoying your unsure and nervous actions. It’d be better without that mask, but right now I’m enjoying myself.”The girl doesn’t seem very interested in the competition happening on stage, more intent on watching you.

>>28850519No it doesn't. If it reeked of a setup, they'd have gotten some girl in a slutty costume to do it. Not this girl.
>>28850624Felicia seems chill enough to not consider dancing with another girl for one song cheating.>>28850632I could back that. No dialogue but squeeze where MJ stabbed.>>28850643It would tip or hand, and if we are wrong we look stupid.
>>28850632Infinitely better than trying to be cool by stating a possible thought of Peter's out loud. I hope when BQ comes back people aren't going to vote to tell people what our Bankai does too.
>>28850652This would make too much senseWhite hairknowing how to bug us (I made a funny)Knows how to disguise herselfKnows what costume we're wearing
>>28850445"My girlfriend is currently at home and MJ gets nervous around people, so that pretty much leaves Gwen."
>>28850658Now where's the problem in that?
>>28850632This works. I vote for this.>>28850665She wouldn't leave Stella alone like that. Unless she got somebody to watch her.
>>28850649If you started out explaining why, then your veto would likely have gained traction.
>>28850657>It would tip or hand, and if we are wrong we look stupid.Ding Ding Ding! 100% correct
>>28850599You you want to squeeze the girl's hand?>y/n
>>28850677Or unless Stella fell asleep early.
>>28850695>yHere we go~
>>28850649People are saying why it's a bad idea, just apparently not together with their veto
>>28850695yes
>>28850695n
>>28850695It depends; are we dancing and or can we do it subtly or make it seem accidental?
>>28850686>youNot me. Him.
>>28850692While yes, conservation of narrative it is either Fel, Gwen, or MJ, but it could be someone new.>>28850695Yes, but no dialogue.
>>28850695>yFuck it, if we're going this far might as well go all the way.
>>28850695How about we do it as we're dancing?
>>28850695No
>>28850695YJust give Peter an IC reason for it
>>28850695No. Nyet. Non. Nein. I need to learn more languages to refuse in.
>>28850695Yes, when we're dancing with her.And remember not to squeeze too hard, since normal humans are fragile things.
>>28850695N
Hey Cosgrove; when Harry pulled out his phone was it ringing or lit up in any way?
>>28850677She could have called Susan or she could have simply finished fabricating an identity for her and then dumped her off at parker's house.
>>28850725What the fuck is your deal? We're already dancing with her.>>28850726This. We have a Strength score of 18. That's peak human.
>>28850695When we're dancing with her, not unprompted.Like we should already be holding her hand when we squeeze it.
>>28850725I'm not sure how to go about this, I don't think peter is much in the mood for mystery. I'm backing off on supporting the hand squeeze
>>28850695>>28850715Eh, change to no.
>>28850695Yes.But not too hard.And only if during the dance, our hands wind up intertwined.
>>28850739If it is MJ, wouldn't squeezing her hand when we know it to be injured be a really cruel thing to do?
>>28850739>peak humanPretty sure we were shattering Carnage's bones consistently while keeping it down. Is that still peak human?

As she readies you for a waltz, she takes you hands and prepares.“Now this is a waltz, so you know the rough idea of one, yes?”You’ve seen them and there was that one time with Aunt May’s dance class, so yes you’re somewhat familiar with a waltz. Taking this time, you decide to eliminate or confirm someone for their identity. As you begin waltzing, you lightly squeeze her right, gloves hand.Glancing over at your hand, she grins at you. “Hey, Peter, what were you expecting to find out?”As you feel your spider-sense go off, you step aside a foot stomp down where yours had been. You see the girl continue to smile at you unnervingly as you go though several steps of the waltz as your spider-sense goes off, again. Again stepping to the side, she continues on dancing unperturbed. You take several minutes of this waltz and dodge as her smile at you grows throughout the waltz. When you finish, the mysterious girl in white grins at you, even more unnervingly.“That was a very interesting dance.

“So, why exactly are you smiling so much?”The girl pauses and fakes looking confused. Up close you noticed she’s wearing make-up, as well as contacts. You couldn’t’ tell if the hair was a wig or not, though.Her hands were covered in gloves and she’s wearing boots. She’s overall dressed in a white outfit. She’s probably dressed as someone considering the party. But as to who she is, you don’t know.But man, is this girl unnerving you.“Sorry, could you repeat that?”You frown and your brows crease behind your mask. “I asked you why you’ve been smiling so much at me, especially during the dance.”The girl lets out an inquisitive noise as she crosses her arms behind her back and bounces on the balls of her feet. “Well, if you’re an intentionally bad dancer, you learn things about the person you dance with.”You tense as she says this as you remember that you avoided every foot that would have stomped on yours after you squeezed her hand. She watches you as her grin widens.“That’s good, I like seeing you panicked. You tense up, your lip trembles, oh such a good reaction~ It’s been a while, after all. Still, I expect you’ll be seeing me again, so I hope I can continue to see such great reactions from you.”She bows like a butler before turning and quickly heading for the door.>[ ] Follow>[ ] Let’s just finish up this competition for the night>[ ] Find Harry, Call it a night.>[ ] Write in

Do not use a tracer you fucking retards
This girl's just glad Peter finally noticed her. She's been trying to get his attention for a while.
>>28851649>>28851635This paranoia shit is really wearing on my nerves. Seriously? It's some fucking teenage girl. We're Spider-Man. IF she comes after us, we can handle it. Right now there's no reason to follow her.>>28851659This
Maybe she just likes anime too?
>>28851669Unlikely since she didn't bother to tell him her name. If she was crushing on him that hard she would have at least given him a false one.>>28851674>Not being at least mildly suspicious of this sort of behavior especially after having gotten back from grimdark future $48You have no idea how real people function when faced with stress or intense situations do you?
>>28851674I think people are worried she'll come for others that we can't protect, but simply following her without any real plan isn't a good option to me. She clearly knows more than we do and has the upper hand, before we can get leverage back further attempts will just work in her favor.
>>28851693Judging by how many people want to chase after her... She obviously knows what she's doing.
>>28851693That doesn't mean we have to follow her
>>28851411Don't tell me following one?
>>28851620because if it is carnage and we follow her she will probably attack us if she gets us alone when, if it is her and we don't follow her she will go after us at an indeterminate time and possibly kill someone else.If it isn't we just seem curious and a bit pushy.
>>28851693>mildly suspiciousDo you really think that's a justification for tailing some random creepy girl? Hell, how about we stalk Mary Jane if you're that worried about every skinny chick who does something strange in our presence.
>>28851716But our spidy sense isn't triggeringhe has no real reason to follow
>>28851716Or it could be carnage leading us into a trap, or it could be going to try to kill Felicia right now, or it might be planning on stalking us, or it could just be saying "Hi parker nice to meet you"
>>28851711What I want to know is why dodging won.We're tough and heal fast, so why couldn't we endure a little pain?
>>28851742Yeah, this is why people are so tense all the time. Paranoid out the ass. I swear, everyone in /tg/ is like this.
>>28851716That's assuming it's even Carnage though. What if she's just a creepy awkward girl who has a strong suspicion that we're Spidey? The whole thing she says (masks, red, knows we can avoid repeated stepping attempt despite being a nerd) doesn't have to make her a villain.
>>28851739She knows who we are, knows we're -very- good at dodging, and likes seeing us panicked.If it isn't Felicia, then we've got a serious problem.
>>28851739That means no immediate threat, spider-sense has yet to show any long term ability.>>28851742better to walk into a trap knowingly than walk into an ambush unawares.
>>28851768Yeah but you don't find >“That’s good, I like seeing you panicked. You tense up, your lip trembles, oh such a good reaction~ It’s been a while, after all. Still, I expect you’ll be seeing me again, so I hope I can continue to see such great reactions from you.”To be troubling? What girl would we panic in front of where they could observe and enjoy our expression, instead of also panicking?
>>28851773Spider sense, motherfucker
>>28851716>>28851716>If it isn't we just seem curious and a bit pushy.
>>28851770She has no definitive proof. All she has is that Peter Parker has great reflexes.I bet you think SHIELD already knows our secret identity with your level of paranoia.
>>28851785Or we just seem scared.
>>28851802If we were scared why would we follow her?>that guy with a gun is fucking scary>better follow him because im scared
>>28851788I'm just saying if a girl says she likes it when we panic, and hopes to see us panic a lot more in the future, not shrugging it off and going "well, that was weird" but instead being kind of spooked is a justifiable reaction.
>>28851783spider sense doesn't ping on sentients until they're actively planning to harm us.
>>28851770she doesn';t know we're spider man,she knows we're char
>>28851824So why would an ambush work, it would warn us early? And dont say they're manipulating our spider sense because that's highly unlikely
>>28851819because he's heading towards an orphanage.
>>28851823Being spooked isn't a justification for following the spooky thing. She might just be crazy and we're just encouraging her behavior by buying into it.
>>28851819because we're spider zimmerman
>>28851788It's Black [s]Cat[/s] Widow! SHIELD's on to us!
>>28851782Well I thought that's covered in the creepy stalker thing. But okay, assume she's bad news, let's use her words to decide her identity. She's someone who has seen us before, likely in a panicking position. She's definitely will be meeting us again in some way, and will probably see us in a panicking position again.My suspicions, based on already named characters would be MJ, as she's already seen us panicking when she bullied us. She shouldn't be here due to social anxiety, but I don't remember any other creepy girls like her.
>>28851840Is she heading towards an orphanage? Or are you trying to start a fight near the school?If anything following her would just make her think we're more likely to be spiderman
>>28851838Heading towards an ambush, the spider-sense would inform you and increase as you approach the dangerous aspect of the ambush spot.But something like a surprise party wouldn't.
>>28851859Exactly what -I'm- saying.A normal person would want to be AWAY from the creepy person, not CLOSER to them.
>>28851869Then we're on the same point here.
>>28851857Well yeah, but her not responding to the hand squeeze is kind of unsettling if it is her.Since it was like just a couple hours since she stabbed herself in the hand, wasn't it?
>>28851823No one's saying we're not spooked, several of the ones who choose to go home early adds that we should mention this to Felicia to ask for help in preparing against her.It's just that she's in a better position compared to us, I'd rather not walk willingly into a trap. It may be better than being ambushed unknowingly, but given the low chance of success in getting out I'd rather we not push our luck and try not to get into a trap at all.
What if it's just some girl Peter used to know that the audience hasn't seen yet
>>28851895No, we should not bring up the girl we met at the party that she didn't go to because she was too busy looking after OUR kid and making her legal papers. At least not tonight.
>>28851885Yeah, the clues don't add up. Of course, it might be a new or unknown character to us, or it involves something that we don't know yet. And seeing that we're in the setting of super powers and super science, all bets are off.
>>28851903Then it doesn't matter right now, does it?We're better off just ignoring her for now and bringing it up to Felicia tomorrow. Not tonight, because we want a romantic evening.
You watch her leave before going back to around where you’re sitting. Sitting down, you watch the competition wrap up- dealing with that girl took some time. And she’s creepy as fuck. Really, who says things like that?More time passes as you look around for Harry- but he’s not currently in sight. Maybe he went to use the bathroom?Regardless, the presentation finished up as you, somehow, manage fifth. Flash in his Spider-man outfit got first while the three most popular girls in school got the spots after him. As your pictures are being taken by some guy in a mummy costume Flash wraps an arm around your shoulders as the two of you wave.There’s a member of the theatre club that incite you to stop by sometime, but overall the rest of the party will be dances and other such things. There’s still no sign of Harry though.>[ ] Look and ask around for Harry>[ ] Call Harry>[ ] Head to Felicia’s >[ ] Write in

>>28851952Oh yeah I forgot, can't believe he doesn't have a personal cell phone. Personally think we should get an old, cheap one when possible, for social calls and shit as a phone seems really vital and necessary nowadays. The school does have a pay phone, right? Use that for now.

>>28852004This is a good idea. We shouldn't call a phone connected to Osborn with our secret phone.
>>28852033Hulk smash.
>>28852033We crushed it remember?Because using the phone just did not work out for us.
>>28852004Right, excellent point.Save the super phone
>>28852035Are you sure we didn't have a phone of our own before? The one we crushed was a disposable phone.
>>28852038I approve of this plan.
>>28852048We never had a phone before that one.
>>28851979Yeah, I do feel bad for her. I mean, I know most of it is very important things that isn't really our fault and all, but she's really been doing a lot for us. She even got us a suit, and the one time we tried to be nice we ended up getting her cursed.When all this Carnage thing is over we really owe her a nice romantic date and dinner, as well as thoughtful gifts and shit. DON'T fucking buy anything without a brand though, check it with Doom first if necessary.
Cosgrove, can you confirm for us if Peter had another phone besides the untraceable one, or did he end up crushing his only phone?
>>28852053>17 years old>no phone, even shitty one>2013I don't believe you. Even if the Parker family is poor, crappy phones can cost as little as 20 bucks.
>>28852081If you bothered to actually follow the quest, read the archives, or even the posts in this thread you would already have your answer.
>>28852088Go fucking read the quest then.
>>28852097What? People being thoughtful and smart? Ha. That will be the day.
>>28852081He crushed his only phone.
>>28852088We never had any reason to use it since we only had one friend and didn't go out much at all.
>>28852070I wonder what else she has going on, now that I think about it. We convinced her not to steal anymore, so really, it seems like she devotes a lot of her time to us. That costume alone must have set her back a bit.However, it's only been about a month since we got bitten by the spider.>>28852097>>28852100No need to be a shithead about it. Fine, we'll use the payphone.
>>28852128He has a new one though, right?
>>28852088Hey herp, want to try again? >>28852128
>>28852133Let's ask tonight
>>28852135One that Felicia gave to be untraceable... Do you really want to use that?
>>28852135Yes, after crushing his only phone, Felicia gave him a new mostly untraceable one. And told him to use it smartly.
>>28852153So no drunk calling Fury?
>>28852153Thanks, just checking.
>>28852147Yeah, I wonder what her long-term plans are now that the Black Cat is effectively no more.>>28852153>mostly untraceableFuck. Then we still can't screw around.
>>28852128Welp, there we have it.Instead of having Flash call our nonexistent cell phone, then... we should get Flash's number if we don't have it already, and call him when we get to Felicia's and ask about Harry. Then we try calling Harry again.
>>28852188Flash said he'd get back to us on the tutoring Friday, which is tomorrow. We can catch him at school then see things through from there.
>>28852133Yeah, due to all the shit happening to us it does seem that her life is revolving around us, at least recently. I think it's fine for the time being, to just be a good and appreciative boyfriend to her, but like I said when this is over, we need to show her a good time and help out with whatever problems she might have for a change.
>>28852012Yeah add use a payphone to that.
>>28852147>>28852182Lets try and give her a nice night without questioning her about the future.
>>28852188In fact, if Flash is there why don't we just ask to borrow his cell phone? No way someone like him won't have one.
>>28852210>"I haven't thought it through /fully/ yet... but I hope my future's got you in it."
>>28852221I guess we could do this, if he isn't being held up by all the people (rightly) congratulating him for his awesome costume.
>>28852182Now, who says the Black Cat still can't prowl the rooftops now and then?Sure, She's not going to be stealing anything anymore, but that doesn't mean she can't do detective work, or gather information or whatever.Besides, you can't just see Black Cat in her costume ONCE and not want more, am I right?
Shouldn't we be heading back to Felicia's guys? We've been at the party for a while and we said we would be right back to Felicia. I think we've done enough for one night and Harry is a big boy.
>>28852182She never said she wasn't going to steal shit anymore. Why would Black Cat not be a thing anymore?
You spend a good ten minutes looking and asking around for Harry. Someone tells you that they saw him on the phone around during the competition, but not a lot of people paid him too much attention.The substitute could only shrug. He was watching for contraband or prohibited activities, so as long as nobody had that he didn’t care what they were up to. You pause to grab Flash’s number again, explaining that your phone had been broken by accident, to which he gladly gives you.When no leads turn up, you head to the school phone and call Harry’s number. It rings twice before going to voice mail. Trying it again, the same thing.Damn it.Well his phone isn’t off, but that means he’s ignoring the call from the school. And you probably shouldn’t call him on your new phone which you should probably only use for Spider-man business while keeping a separate one for Peter Parker business.You could try heading over his way- you’ve been over to his house once, but it’d probably take half-an-hour or you could head on over to Felicia’s.>[ ]Check Harry’s house>[ ] Head to Felicia’s>[ ] Write in
>>28852264She said she'd restrict her work to the people who REALLY deserve it....which really just puts her in danger, but who are we to question those choices when we fight super villains and break scientists out of government quarantines
>>28852206>>28852210We've been dating for... two weeks? Three weeks?It hasn't been that long, but she loves Peter and Peter loves her. A lot of the time spent with her as Felix tempered her feelings too, and her devotion to us despite a 20 year time skip and a cat creature transformation cemented her as someone we could really rely on for the long-term.I think we might have picked the best waifu possible.

>>28852271Head to Felicia's and keep an eye out for any payphones. Call Harry on one, tell him we had to head. Girlfriend was missing us.

>>28852306YeahWe should definitely call the Osborne residence before we head to Felicias and ask them, or inform them something might be up, this is a prime example of using write in instead of going with the options given

>>28852271>>[ ] Head to Felicia’sLeave a message
>>28852271>Call him 1 more time from the school phone to leave him the message that we're leaving, then head to Felicias
>>28852276>>28852283Sometimes a person who is having a bad time just wants to be left alone. And sometimes that is the best thing until they cool off. This might be especially true for Harry as it seems he has something of an inferiority complex towards Peter. First the situation with his father and today at the party he put on a worse showing than Peter who didn't know jack about his character and still got plenty of applause.A little less Peter time might just be exactly what Harry needs.
>>28852271If we didn't leave him a message before, leave him one.Then call his house to see if Harry called in or came over or anything.Then head on over to Felicias. Not much more we can do.

>>28852359Oh not this shit again.
>>28852353It hasn't been long enough for him to be at his home yet. Better to call his house to see if he's been told to come home, and if not, tell whoever picks up that he's disappeared from the Halloween party.It's only right that Norman knows, even if he's a prick he's still Harry's dad.
>>28852359Yes i trust cosgrove because if i didn't voting would be pointless.
>>28852341Yeah, I know. I got distracted doing some beta work, and saw the previous vote. I scrolled down, managed to miss Cos' second post, and saw that people were still making votes like 'go to Felicia's housse' and assumed we were sstill on the same vote.
>>28852359That kind of thinking is exactly why shit storms start up like in bleach quest and a few threads ago. Yes I can trust that Cosgrove has enough interesting things going on that unless someone wanted to piss off Norman Osborn that Harry is fine and can take a cab home.
>writing>>28852359...
>>28852306With the school phone right?
>>28852271Swing by his place on our way to Felicia's.Possibly call Felicia to let her know we're running late, that our friend disappeared from the party and isn't answering his cell phone, we're just making sure he got home okay then we'll be right over....expecting having to give harry a "Yeah, we're growing up and changing. We all are. Hell, Flash apologized to me and meant it. It get's better, Harry. Chin up, head on straight, embrace what you love and figure out what you want to do next; and what you need to do to get there."
>>28852271Call Harry's house first. Norman is rich enough that he has someone to answer housecalls for him. Then we can tell them that Harry left the party suddenly.>>28852413of course.
>>28852404I just wanted to try it once, Cosgrove.I'm sorryPersonally, I'd be flattered to have pornographic fanart.
>>28852404That fucking mask...I had a friend in highschool who was really into cosplay. He went full bore with a Skullkid outfit even going so far as to give the mask glowing eyes.He then would sit at the foot of the couch in the middle of the night while I was sleeping over from time to time.
>>28852425That is fucking awesome.I would definitely buy a glowing skullkid mask of good quality.

>>28852425Jesus. The fright from waking up to that must have cut years off your life.,
>>28852441Harry hasn't shown a modicum of resentment towards us. Usually we'd have at least ONE clue that he's going supervillain on us.But no. There's none.
>>28852441>Tetsuo"The what? Also, Harry, stop thinking out loud."
>>28852441"Harry, this is going to probably cause a knee jerk reaction, but it's honest. I don't think your dad likes me more than you. I think he likes what I might be worth to him if I'm half the scientist my father was, and that actually makes me a little uncomfortable,"
>>28852451The first time he did it it was pitch black and it was a few feet from my face. I ended up flipping the couch on top of myself. After that incident I gave him my extra yellow power ring. Apparently he's designing costumes for asylum or something these days.>>28852458You'd be surprised how silent resentment and envy can fester in someone until it reaches a boiling point and they just explode seemingly out of the blue.>>28852468>Can't into AkiraAlso no I won't.
You use the phone to call one more time. Two rings- answering machine. Leaving a message, you inform Harry that you’re heading out and that you couldn’t find him before leaving.He was in a bit of a bad mood before leaving, maybe it’ll be better to give him some time alone?Regardless, you should probably go ahead and head on to Felicia’s. From here, it’ll be a good half hour walk, minimum. And, thanks to new laws, you’ll have to carry your mask there.Still, you’ve got a nice night with your girlfriend and adopted sister. So you might as well enjoy it.And then you notice the police sirens in the distance as you see several cop cars heading somewhere with their lights on. ….Oh, come on.REALLY?!Peter Parker Quest, Issue #36, endTo be Continued>All the ghouls and Goblins.

>>28852587Don't joke about it, anon
>>28852587Depends on how many times we come back to her bruised and bloody.
>>28852587Nigga, she loves us. As long as we do our best, she understands. She was a costumed thief before we became Spider-Man.
>>28852606She still is
>>28852587If this Felicia is anything like her counterparts; she'll eventually want in on the action.
>>28852619Well, yeah. But less frequently.
Don't forget to keep force updating the suptg archive... that said; it's 4AM here and I really need some sleep. Pleasant dreams.
>>28852513>Thread name: Have you ever danced with the Devil in the Pale MoonlightOh god...What was she?
>>28852650Not in a costume.
>>28852650... ... ...
>>28852621Minus us being a dick to her and thinking that just because she doesn't have superpowers it's too dangerous for her....despite her proving over and over how capable she is without them.God, the writers of Spider-Man have always been so shit.
>>28852650>Cosgrove is directing us exactly where he wants to go with minimal effort>even going so far as to spoil what he'll make us do in the thread titles
>>28852650Mary Jane.Who is evil and yet immune to our spider sense for some reason that makes no sense.
>>28852513do we get interlude Cosgrove?
>>28852686>Immune>Our Spider-sense was triggered by her trying to stomp usum
>>28852683Please. You're making it sound like we weren't going to "dance" with her one way or another.>>28852686Nope. She wasn't bleeding from her finger and she lacked the red hair, green eyes, stink, awkward posture and baggy eyes Mary Jane has.Yet...I find myself pondering something. Carnage duplicates can be made, yeah? Who says there's just one? It's quite likely Casady isn't our killer; nay, I'd say its certain.But that doesn't mean he lacks the symbiote or something like. It just means that right now, Mary Jane is able to fucking mince people.
>>28852716The carnage symbiote doesn't exist yet. The Venom symbiote does.
>>28852712...Good point. Somehow missed that.Well then it just means that either we no longer instinctively equate her as a threat since (as Alice) she was alright, or she no longer constantly wants everything to die.
>>28852716the symbiote can also mimic clothing and has been shown to be capable of mimicking people allowing her to wear another face.But the carnage symbiote hasn't been developed yet since it was a super soldier project that got started after one of the future wars. At least that's what I've gathered.
>>28852716I still don't buy the Carnage symbiote existing.Or a 17 year-old girl without superpowers being able to kill so many people without using a gun.
>>28852729We sure about that? I mean, we know that Peter's dad had a sample of the symbiote on him before he disappeared and Peter touched it. We know that some horrible incident happened when he was younger that broke Mary Jane.
>>28852712...I feel really stupid for missing that.Confirmed for not having a symbiote.
>>28852754We didn't touch it. We touched the glass. It didn't get our DNA until we wore it.>>28852756Actually she could still have one, it would just alert our spider-sense since it wouldn't recognize it as "us".
>>28852762No, you don't understand. If she did bond with a symbiote that is immune to our spider-sense, then nothing she could have done would set it off. She made an intentional move to harm us, so it went off.You're wrong. She's clean (of a symbiote, anyway).
>>28852762Hmmm. Didn't a piece of it escape? Who says it got onto Peter, but it could conceivably have attached to her?
>>28852716She was also wearing gloves, contacts, and a lot of makeup, though no confirmation on a wig. Hard to say that it couldn't be her.
>everyone's a symbiote
>>28852778I'm saying that if she somehow already had a symbiote that wasn't from the future, then it wouldn't be immune to our spider sense.>>28852779You'd think someone would have noticed?
>>28852789maybe?
>>28852793Not really. It's a fucking blob and the only two people there were traumatized by it.
>>28852789Felicias a symbiote.Harry's a symbiote.May Is a symbiote
>>28852793So what evidence do you have that she has a symbiote?
>>28852810Still, I'm not sure whether that means anything.Since the Maximum Carnage killer would have had to somehow kill all those people without a future symbiote.
>>28852811Uncle Ben was a symbiote.
>>28852811The symbiote has a symbiote
>>28852822Maybe he doesn't need one. Maybe he's really that depraved and meticulous.
>>28852814I don't.I'm pretty sure she doesn't have one.I'm just saying that in this timeline there shouldn't be any symbiotes that are immune to our spider-sense, since that seems to confuse some people.
>>28852822>>28852841There can be two killers. We still don't know if Cletus and Mary Jane knew each other before.She was depressed. Some people turn towards religion as a form of solace.
>>28852843Their worry is mostly centered on the notion that the Venom symbiote left something in our blood when we wore it.We can easily determine whether it did or not if we examine a sample of our blood compared to the frozen samples... which we REALLY should destroy when we have a free moment at home.
>>28852853Yeah technically we don't have proof that Carnage isn't a group of murderers.We really should have looked at some police files or whatever.
>>28852853The whole point of being a hikkikomori is that you turn to completely introverted activities, the least of which being religion. religion encourages community cohesion, the exact opposite of what MJ wants to be apart of.
>>28852853Lets look at Cletus's MO so far. He likes to find 'special' people like Marko and give them superpowers. He was even willing to go to jail to achieve this goal.What I'm trying to say here is, if Cletus isn't the Carnage Killer? He's the one that taught them everything they know, and he's willing to go significantly out of his way to 'enlighten' those he feels are capable of...more.Something small like the special person being a recluse won't stop him at all.
>>28852896>He likes to find 'special' people like Marko and give them superpowers.Do you have a single fact to back that up
>>28852920Well, he gave Marko superpowers, and if I'm remembering correctly showed an interest in Eddie Brock...Eddie was the guy we first heard about Cletus from, yeah?
>>28852896What about Marko was 'special' other than him being across the hall from Kasady in the prison?I feel like he just gave him sand powers because it was convenient. A big dumb oaf who he could control to do his bidding.Who knows? the powers might not even be permanent as they were applied. Kasady might be threatening him with taking him off the stuff he stuck him with if he ever goes rogue or disobeys orders.
>>28852896That could EASILY be a once off. It's possible though. Also, as the others said, Marko seems to have been more opportunist instinct than planned agitation. >>28852884Never said she was in it for long. If she met him just the once, that could be enough. Plus, serial killers are excellent actors. A hikkomori as a killer? Who'd see that coming?
>>28852932Well how did he give MJ, a hikki shutin powesAlso we don't know for a fact that he gave him powers
>>28852935I dunno, if this guy's Kotomine enough for Cosgrove to be posting Kotomine pictures whenever he shows up, its quite likely that he's doing it just to see what people do with them.
>>28852968MJ's mother said she was a shut-in, and the whole point of us going on our not-date was to help her adjust to moving here.As I recall, the Carnage Killer was active before MJ even got to New York.
>>28853015Okay, we know Cletus is a new arrival in the City. We know MJ is a new arrival in the City. I'm suggesting they come from the same location and, for a while, he was her pastor before she became a hikkomori.
>>28853054Oh. Right. Eddie told us Kasady was a new member of his church.Hmm.Still, I think the theory of MJ being Carnage or working with him is just one big red herring. And if it's not, it's related to a different plotline than this one.Hopefully we can alleviate worse possibilities by putting her and Harry together.
>>28852968If Carnage was a mere serial killer that would be one thing. But they appear to be a spree killer capable of killing a lot of people quickly, even police officers, and leave no witnesses or evidence.I refuse to believe that is physically possible for MJ without some superpowered hax.
>>28853091No. That's like, not fair. At all. You can't just pair the spares and think they'll be happy; already Harry was pretty pissed we implied he should go out with MJ out of pity and because no one else will take her.Fuck, I mean. It's kinda obvious why they're both so depressed; we've been fucking around with Felicia and neglecting those two. MJ's shown (in her own way) that she likes us and Harry, well...I mean, Harry just needs his friend to help him get closer to other people. Like, Flash or such.>>28853149Are you reading what I'm saying? I'm saying she has a symbiote from that incident that traumatised her and Peter. Also, Kasady may be related with her, seeing as they both appeared at the exact same time in New York, in the same area.
>>28853166>Harry just needs his friend to help him get closer to other people. Like, Flash or such.Won't work. Flash would act more as a mentor for Harry at best, but they're polar opposites in terms of interests. Even then, Flash doesn't even like Harry anyway. He stays away from him because he likes us now, and doesn't want to fuck with our friends.>Harry was pretty pissed we implied he should go out with MJ out of pity and because no one else will take her.I can see him sussing out what we were trying to do, but we made an honest attempt. It's not like we went full Aunt May and set them up on a surprise date like she did with her and Peter.
>>28853166>implied he should go out with MJ out of pityI think it was more likely because they both have interest in animesAlso when Peter starts tutoring Flash we should try to get both of them to bro-up.
>>28853219Don't see how, but I guess we can try. Has Flash stopped bullying completely, or just when it concerns us and our friends?
>>28853219>I think it was more likely because they both have interest in animesYeah, it was basically this, and it was reinforced even more by the sheer awkward of Harry and Flash's conversation.
>>28853322Somehow I just don't believe MJ is a lost cause. There has to be some way for her to get out of this depression. I mean, her father left her mother is ill, and she's living with her aunt.There's got to be something we can do to have her not be so Tomoko. In another continuity, she's pretty much the most attractive girl in the city.
>>28853385Scratch that. Her father left the family and abused her and her mother, and her mother is dead.
