It comes in through the bedroom window, slides through a gap the width of a needle as smoothly and easily as water pouring through a sieve. By the time it's completely reached the other side, it's Gwen Stacy.

It is Gwen Stacy.

Well, it's close, anyway. It's blonde, and the face is right, but the eyes are green. The hair is too long, hanging well past the shoulders. The hands are too small, just a little, and it's a few inches too tall. But it is Gwen Stacy.

It needs somewhere quiet, somewhere safe. This house will be safe for Gwen Stacy. The people here care about her, love her, and want her to be alive. It knew how to find the bedroom of the boy because it remembers, and here is the bed Gwen Stacy remembers also.

The room smells familiar. The bed smells familiar. InTO tHE BeD.

Gwen Stacy climbs in. Yes, familiar and safe. She'll be safe here, and the woman who owns the house, (Aunt May, a crackling static voice fills in) isn't at home. She pulls the blankets over her naked shoulders. She is bare, as if she were only just born, and she buries her face in the pillow.

She feels her face melt away. She waits, tense, for a moment, and it all comes back again. The eyes are brown now, probably.

She clings to the soft pillow and smells its smell, like Peter Parker. She presses her tongue to the pillowcase. It is human, soft and pink.

Yes. Safe.
