Who: Spider-man & Black Cat
Where: Gotham City, New Jersey
When: June 4th, 2012, Night
What: Spider-man made a spider-signal and holy crap, someone is using it! But not for the reason he hoped for.
Rating: Low, flirting likely.
Batman had the bat-signal. So clearly, what Spider-man needed was a spider-signal. Why hadn't he thought of it before? It had taken a bit of time to construct the spotlight, but only because spotlights were expensive and he didn't want to draw too much attention to himself for buying one outright. What teenager bought a spotlight instead of a strobe light? He was good with gadgets and the hardest part was making the metal plate to go over the bulb, so the shape of a spider similar to what he wore on his costume for the piece that would go over the bulb itself. With all the pieces he needed, he took a little time over the past few weeks. There was still crime to fight, though it was just a little bit at a time.
He'd turned on the spider-signal a few nights before for the first time. Peter left it on for a couple hours to see if it drew any interest and unsurprising, no one came or cared. While it was a little disappointing, he wasn't going to give up so easily. Batman couldn't be there all the time, surely they might need him at some point. So, of course, when he saw the spider-signal illuminating the sky, he dropped his video game controller and changed into his costume. He was out the window only seconds after and making his way to the building the spider signal was shining from.
Landing on the roof, he rose to stand and looked around. He didn't see anyone there. Was this a joke? It might be. "Hello?" he asked looking around, "Captain? Lieutenant...anyone at all?" He scratched at his head absently and looked around, before feeling defeated and going to turn the light off. What was a waste.
