we will never be a nuclear family

WHO: The Spider-Family, and friends!
WHERE: A house in Bed-Stuy, soon to be the SPIDER-HAUS.
WHEN: All day Sunday!
WARNINGS: Spider-Shenanigans.
SUMMARY: The Spider-Family movies into their new home.
FORMAT: Quick, then whatever!

[The new residence of some 70% of the City's spider-themed populace is an unprepossessing little house in Brooklyn. Or not so little, what with six bedrooms and a basement apartment, but it has that down-home vibe to it that Peter hadn't even realized he'd been missing in the MAC until he signed the lease papers.

Peter is the first one to arrive today, since he wanted to unlock all the doors and turn on all the utilities before eight -- no, seven -- teenagers come crashing in. After hauling in the boxes and bags he brought with him in the rental car (which presciently includes two grocery sacks full of snacks: see above note re: teenagers), he retrieves himself a coke and goes out to sit on the front stoop, waiting for everyone else to come swinging in.]

No, that's fine, I- I've got it, I swear I... [ Because fumbling to keep them from spilling onto Miles' head is proof positive of that! With a heavy sigh and a small, reluctant smile: ]

You know what? Actually, that'd be great.

[ Miles' mouth quirks and he pulls nearly the top half of the books off just by having them stay sticky on his fingers. He figured out that the whole wall-crawling thing was actually really useful, once he got done being too afraid of what having his powers meant to try to figure out how they worked.

He maneuvers the books into a pile in his own arms once Reilly is free of their weight.

Where are they going to go?
bedeviledspider: ([R] stop stalking me MJ)

[personal profile] bedeviledspider 2012-08-08 08:43 pm (UTC)(link)
[ Reilly blinks at that, though not for the reason Miles may suspect. Mostly, he's just annoyed he didn't think of using sticky fingers first. Probably for the best, though. Just because they were sharing a house didn't mean Reilly needed to give the kid a full display of his powers. ]

Nice trick.

And I think May and I were going to share the basement, so...

[ If Miles wasn't such a huge derpy fail, he might think about being paranoid too, but instead he just smiles a bit, pleased. He's never really been around people who know what they're doing, just him and Ganke trying to make it up as they go along, so it's a nice change of pace. ]

Thanks.

Okay, it's, uh-- hang on. [ He nudges the door open with his foot and hits the light switch with one shoulder, before starting down the basement steps. ]

[ There might be a hint of a smile on Reilly's lips, though he's hoping Miles doesn't see it. It is kind of cute to see how excited the kid is -- he can't remember the last time he was that psyched about getting to use his powers. ]

Mind if I ask how you're doing that?

[ And he follows him down the steps to whatever May's managed to unpack so far. ] The... clingy thing.
remake: (₍mm₎ ohhhh crap)

[personal profile] remake 2012-08-10 09:22 am (UTC)(link)
Oh, I don't-- [ He ducks his head sheepishly, watching his own socked feet on the stairs. ] --I don't actually know. I just-- I mean.

[ He didn't tell Reilly when they first talked, but how that they're living together, it's a different story. Right? If Peter Parker trusts him, then why wouldn't Miles? Peter Parker knows way more than him about like, everything, so. ] I got bit by a spider and then-- I dunno, I just do a bunch of Spider stuff now.

If you think this is confusing you should see my venom thingy. I've got no idea about that one.
bedeviledspider: ([R] tingle.)

[personal profile] bedeviledspider 2012-08-11 02:48 am (UTC)(link)
[ Reilly laughs, despite himself, keeping an eye out in case Miles trips and falls or something. ] Yeah. You can't trust those spiders and their bites.

[ Then that last part hit. ] Wait. Venom? Tell me you're not referring to the symbiote.
remake: (₍mm₎ starry eyed)

[personal profile] remake 2012-08-12 09:13 am (UTC)(link)
[ Miles glances back at Reilly, which probably isn't a good idea when you're walking down stairs. But he manages not to fall before they get down to the landing. ]

Uh. The what?
bedeviledspider: ([R] decisions.)

[personal profile] bedeviledspider 2012-08-16 05:58 am (UTC)(link)
Hey, watch your step.

[ Ignoring the question? Maybe. ] Look, if you haven't heard of it, don't worry about it. It's no big deal.
remake: (₍mm₎ hesitant)

[personal profile] remake 2012-08-16 06:43 am (UTC)(link)
[ Miles frowns, for a second. He's gotten that reaction a lot, here. ] I- it's, um, it's not something that I should look out for? Now that I'm Spider-Man. [ One of them anyway... ]
bedeviledspider: ([R] sensing danger)

[personal profile] bedeviledspider 2012-08-17 04:59 am (UTC)(link)
You and at least three other guys who've been here before you, I think. [ SIGH. That's at least three Spider-Men too many. ]

Look, I'm not exactly sure what to tell you. I don't know much about it— you'd have to ask May. The only advice I can give you is that if you come across some black ooze with a mind of its own, don't touch it, and definitely don't let it stab you.

[personal profile] remake 2012-08-17 09:18 am (UTC)(link)
[ A BEAT oh god stabbing. He doesn't like the sound of stabbing. ] O-okay. I'll. Okay.

[ Kind of. Clutching those books defensively now tbh. ] Um, where should I put...
bedeviledspider: ([DD/SG] almost hug.)

[personal profile] bedeviledspider 2012-08-17 07:30 pm (UTC)(link)
[ Chuckles, a little. Because it's... cute how Miles is worried about about stabbing?! Wow, these Spider-People are twisted. ]

Just put them by that mattress over there. I'll sort it out later.

[ Then, a little softer: ] Look, kid. Don't worry about it. Even if that thing comes around, I'm sure everyone here would let themselves get stabbed first before it got to you.

I mean, we're not– [ Family? ] We're not exactly buds. But we're Spiders. And that's what Spiders do. Or so they keep telling me.
remake: (₍mm₎ guiltyface)

[personal profile] remake 2012-08-20 07:23 am (UTC)(link)
[ Miles does that!! Piles them up right next to the mattress, before giving the other boy a surprised look. ]

Um, that's-- n... I just-- I don't want anyone else to get stabbed on my account either. I am still a superhero.

[ 8C Well Reilly, Miles would like to be buds, stop being so tsundere (again)!! ]

Are you, um, from their Universe too?
bedeviledspider: ([R] awkward sense tingling!)

[personal profile] bedeviledspider 2012-08-24 01:16 am (UTC)(link)
[ Is that a proud smile on Reilly's face? IT JUST MIGHT BE (don't tell anyone Miles it's a secret okay). ] With that attitude, you just might make a good Spider-Man.

[ That question seems to throw him off a little, though, judging by the nervous look on his face. ] I... not exactly? Well, I mean- May and I are from the same world, but the others—
