It shouldn't be a bother.

[short of like mold growing there, he's really not going to care much]

I'll follow. [Even though he's familiar with the location, he would rather keep an eye on Peter.]

[spidermenaces]

(dude's so serious, but at least it doesn't bother peter, who's just going to nudge him a little with his shoulder.)

Thanks, man. I like company. But, hey, how is this place treating you and everything? You good?

[depressionnap]

[The friendliness earns a glance, but nothing out of disappointment. If anything, just some mild confusion before he responds.]

It's tolerable, but also troubling. I don't much care for not knowing what's really happening here, and what happens back in our own worlds. Too many possibilities.

[spidermenaces]

You can't not care, man. If you don't care, then you're just accepting, right?

(or that's kind of how he feels. it's how he feels about himself, too. if he doesn't care enough to be spiderman, then-- it makes no sense. great power, great responsibility, even if he hasn't heard that yet.

but, here's the lab. peter's a little clumsy with opening the door, settling the plates on a table before he goes for the light switch.)

There, this is it.

[depressionnap]

I suppose so.

[But it does bother him, more than words can say. He doesn't fully understand their situation, and if there is a way to undo it. It has to be done, or waking up was absolutely useless after all.

Snapping out of his thoughts, Vincent tilts his head as they arrive. He takes only a moment to gaze outside, as if checking the perimeter before he follows Peter in.]

Do you feel secure in your workspace? [look man this is important to a former bodyguard]

(that moment when he comes with a danger radar embedded in his brain, although it feels... off, in this place. it works just fine, but it's like it's pinging continuously, as if it was telling peter this place is a threat in itself in the background.

which makes him wonder why exactly is vincent so worried right at this moment, because it doesn't tingle more than it has been.)

I mean, yeah, we follow all the lab precautions, we're both going to wear gloves and eye protection while I'm cleaning if you're staying with me here, Mr. Valentine.
