[ Don't you worry, Peter. Matt's got plenty of experience with messy relationships, he'd give you the worst advice. But hey, Peter makes a mean sandwich. ]
It's good. Thanks, Peter.
[ Matt smiles. His powers are such that food is an experience, not always in a fun way. Just Peter doing his best is good enough. He'd probably comment on the fact that Gwen knows his secret, but he's not one to talk -- and his own reveals have been. Bad. ]
That explains some things. It sounds really, uh... unique. I've never heard machines like that. [ He takes another bite. ] I'm glad you have somebody who can help you with that kind of thing. My suit has some kevlar and armor, but that's pretty much it.
(he is so glad that his senses are dialed up to eleven, not ten thousand. he could relate, but not nearly in the same capability. besides, sight is the worst one, and well...)
Hey, don't mention it. And, uh, it's made of nanotech, so it's-- it retreats and reconfigures itself around me and stuff. You can touch it if you want. I'm not good with the suit part of things, the sewing and stuff... But Gwen is. If you ever tell her, she could help, I bet... Mr. Stark says the suit doesn't matter, though.
[ It's hell, trust him, Peter. You don't want that. Poor Matt can tell where food is from. He is used to it, but it's a nightmare. ]
I... You know what, sure. Not like I'll get many chances like this.
[ Matt holds out his hand, giving Peter the chance to come into his space. ]
He's right, you know. Though coming from him, that's pretty funny.
[ Iron Man? Hello?? Matt knows what he means, though. He takes a moment to think on it, his hand still outstretched. ]
The suit doesn't make you the kind of person who wants to help people. It just makes it easier, but Spider-Man -- that's who you are deep down, suit or no suit.
(new collection of stimulus for matt - the sharp sound of the webs deploying from peter's wrist, particules of silky web sprinkled through the air. fabric being pulled as he closes the curtains without ever standing, and lastly, the nanites assembling around his body. tiny little things fitting against one another so fast that it takes a single blink to complete.
he offers his own armored hand, knowing now that matt will know where to reach.)
Yeah, it's... Actually almost ironic to think about, but you two are right. I think you'd like him, you know.
But, I mean, all this because I wanted to tell you if you wanted a kickass suit, we're gonna have to see about that. You're probably going to do your thing here, there are monsters AND crime.
[ Matt finds Peter's hand without issue. This is the strangest thing Matt has ever heard or felt, but he can't deny it's pretty cool to experience. He can hear each of the nanites, thousands or perhaps millions of them, shifting their tiny gears and moving about. It really is like spiders, or like that fear that so many people have of being covered in them, if he had to guess. (He will keep that observation to himself.) ]
I don't know about that.
[ Tony Stark did save New York from the Chitauri, it's true. But wasn't his Stark Gentrification part of the reason guys like Fisk have come in and started trying to knock down tenements to build shiny new high rises? No, Matt would have plenty to say to Tony Stark. ]
Monsters? [ The crime he kinda figured. It's his anger management routine, though he knows he'll fall back into it without question. ] What do you mean?
(but he can understand why people say it. to him, however, tony stark is someone who believes in him, who isn't afraid of doing so - and even when he is stern on peter, he can understand why. he knows it's for his good, as much as it pains him when he does.
someone who wants peter to be better than him. it's quite something, a lot of pressure for a kid, but-- he's family, in peter's eyes.
he'll allow for matt to experience the nanites as much as he would like, and should he tire and his hand retreat, so will the suit.)
Uh, monsters is all there is. Ugly big monsters in the forest and in the caves, dangerous, strong. I've been dealing with it, but it seems like there's no end, you know.
[ Matt nods. He can tell Tony Stark is someone important to Peter, and plenty of people can be kind to their friends and loved ones, and still make bad decisions. (Look in the mirror, Matt Murdock.)
Matt pulls his hand away slowly -- not wanting to project just how uncomfortable the experience was for him. ]
(did he say something wrong?? he's confused-- but wow, calm down, sir--)
I mean, that's how I call them! They got two heads, and look like they're made of fire and lava and stuff! They live in the mountains, but they attack if you come by -- and uh, there's the shark-rat, around where you were, and uh, these plants with tentacles. I haven't seen them in the city, but, uh, they're closeby.
[ Matt tries to picture that, and it's nightmarish. Considering how he perceives the world, the idea of a creature that's on fire and made of lava is. Well, it's a lot. Thank God Peter is actually telling him, because if he ran into one of these in the wild, he'd be speechless.
He has experienced a lot of shit and he thought zombies ninjas was bad enough, but now this? ]
And this is just -- normal? Do people hunt them...?
