peter wants to use a cell phone for its intended purpose
[Private to Gwen S.]

Hey, so. I heard there's this thing kids used to do with cell phones where you "call" someone. I thought it was just for texting and candy crush, but apparently they have other uses. Would you be interested in giving me your number to try this "call" thing out?

	Her name was Anna Maria. She was [Frowning. So much Parker frowning.] really nice and smart. And, I was sorry for taking Ock away from her. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	But you saved her. Why didn't he retake control after? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: Call: Gwen/Peter newhorizon 2014-05-06 05:24 am UTC (link)
	[Quieter.] See? That's why I think he's gone for good. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: Call: Gwen/Peter ephemeras 2014-05-06 05:30 am UTC (link)
	[Thoughtful.] He would have come back for her. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: Call: Gwen/Peter newhorizon 2014-05-06 05:31 am UTC (link)
	[Frown.] And, now I'm back here. [....] I wanted to come back here. Really badly. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: Call: Gwen/Peter ephemeras 2014-05-06 05:37 am UTC (link)
	[Pause.] Why? When I went home, I didn't want to be there, but I didn't want to come here either. [Then, with some understanding.] Mary Jane? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: Call: Gwen/Peter newhorizon 2014-05-06 05:42 am UTC (link)
	[Smile.] The world doesn't revolve around Mary Jane. [Though, yeah maybe sometimes it does.] There I messed up so many things. Ock messed up a lot, too. I hate not knowing you or anyone else. But, I hate not having you around even more. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

You're lucky you weren't around when we were in high school. I had a really impossible time understanding that my Peter was into someone else. [Small smile.] I'm currently in Mary Jane remission. I messed my own life up without any help from her. It's not her fault, and I'm glad you found someone after. [A quiet laugh.] It's been like a decade for you, hasn't it, bug boy?

	What, high school? Jeez, yeah. I taught teenagers a couple years ago. That's how long it's been. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: Call: Gwen/Peter ephemeras 2014-05-06 12:38 pm UTC (link)
	Do you wish we were older? [Pause.] The Mary Jane and Harry from your time, are they okay? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: Call: Gwen/Peter newhorizon 2014-05-06 12:46 pm UTC (link)
	I haven't really thought about it. I guess, yeah, to avoid old man jokes. [That's way harder.] Uh, Mary Jane finally wised up and left me for someone way better than me and Harry. [Long pause.] I don't really want to talk about what happened to Harry, if that's cool. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: Call: Gwen/Peter ephemeras 2014-05-06 01:07 pm UTC (link)
	[Incredulous.] Mary Jane left you? [There's a long pause when he mentions Harry.] I don't have any idea what eventually happens to him in my world, but I suspect it isn't good. But, okay. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: Call: Gwen/Peter newhorizon 2014-05-06 01:13 pm UTC (link)
	Yeah, I'm not going there. We were better as friends. Probably still are. [Trying to be funny:] Spoiler Alert: None of my relationships pan out, Gweny. My friendships barely make it and there were times that I almost lost the small amount of family I have. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: Call: Gwen/Peter ephemeras 2014-05-06 03:21 pm UTC (link)
	[Immediately.] Aunt May? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: Call: Gwen/Peter newhorizon 2014-05-06 04:09 pm UTC (link)
	Yeah. [...] I mean she ended up fine. [...] But, you know. [......] Lots of close calls. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: Call: Gwen/Peter ephemeras 2014-05-06 04:26 pm UTC (link)
	Do you still blame yourself for everything, Peter? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: Call: Gwen/Peter newhorizon 2014-05-06 04:28 pm UTC (link)
	[Uncomfortable silence.] I better go. New York isn't going to patrol itself. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: Call: Gwen/Peter ephemeras 2014-05-06 04:30 pm UTC (link)
	Let's do something fun instead. A half hour? No robots and no serious stuff. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: Call: Gwen/Peter newhorizon 2014-05-06 04:33 pm UTC (link)
	[Wary.] What do you do for fun these days? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: Call: Gwen/Peter ephemeras 2014-05-06 04:34 pm UTC (link)
	Ice cream, Peter. How about ice cream? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: Call: Gwen/Peter newhorizon 2014-05-06 04:35 pm UTC (link)
	[...] I like ice cream. [...] Okay, you win. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	It was useless to resist, bug boy. [Smile.] That place by Midtown High? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: Call: Gwen/Peter newhorizon 2014-05-06 05:44 pm UTC (link)
	Is it called The Bent Spoon here too? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: Call: Gwen/Peter ephemeras 2014-05-06 05:56 pm UTC (link)
	Yeah. I'll do my best not to bend any spoons while we're there. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: Call: Gwen/Peter newhorizon 2014-05-07 05:27 am UTC (link)
	What's that? You want me to obsess over your new powers until I can figure out to help you with them? Great! (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: Call: Gwen/Peter ephemeras 2014-05-07 05:30 am UTC (link)
	[Chide.] Peter. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: Call: Gwen/Peter newhorizon 2014-05-07 06:22 am UTC (link)
	Okay, okay. Ice cream is for fun, not worrying about powers. I'll see you in a half hour? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: Call: Gwen/Peter ephemeras 2014-05-07 06:28 am UTC (link)
	I'll see you there, bug boy. [Click.] (Reply to this) (Parent)
