I'm the hero of the story

[currentcy]

WHO: ELECTRO and BABY SPIDER-MAN
WHERE: Manhattan... in a subway and then elsewhere?
WHEN: Thursday afternoon
WARNINGS: Uh?? Maybe violence? Will edit as needed.
SUMMARY: Well, this is awkward.
FORMAT: Quick?


[ The past few days -- weeks, really -- had been difficult on Electro, although he managed not to show it. He usually brushed off stresses like worrying about what he was doing, how to really feel important doing stuff he only halfheartedly believed in, worrying about Parker--

Well, it built up. He headed toward Manhattan from Brooklyn, surfing along a subway rail. It was one of his more obnoxious ways to travel and it shot sparks and lighting every which way, shutting parts of the subway tunnel off and on, but he was in a mood to be obnoxious. And maybe to find an ATM. As long as people stayed relatively clear of the tunnel they should have been fine, anyway. ]

[ Miles' shoulders straighten and he tries to look way more intimidating than he actually is. He doesn't stop to think, hey this guy isn't the same one from my universe, maybe he's not a criminal. Maybe he's totally not violent and a nice guy, when you don't trip him into a wall in the subway. Regardless, maybe he shouldn't engage A-List villains on a whim.

Because he's thirteen and that's not how he thinks this works. ] Yeah well I- I beat the Electro from my world, I can beat you too.

You're a little young to be feeling suicidal. But who'm I to judge? Your funeral, not mine.

[ So, Electro is going to hurl a big ol' ball of lightning over. ]

Ah! [ Miles jerks away, panicked, leaping up to stick onto the ceiling of the tunnel. The suddenness of the attack makes him turn invisible against the cement tiles in fear, and he scrambles back down the other side behind Electro before, like a genius, springing off it to tackle him around the midsection. ]

Don't do that!!

[ Miles Morales: genius quipper. ]

Hey!

[ Miles vanishing throws him off, causing him to blindly hurl electricity around the tunnel; every time it bounces off a subway rail the lights flicker again, until finally several bulbs burst. ]

Where the hell did--

[ And if tackled, sparks are fucking flying everywhere as he falls backwards. ]
