Re: [flash and gwen at the hospital]
[She'd always been the one who believed that there wasn't any way to alter their timelines. They'd kept Harry in the dark about Goblin, and he'd still managed to get his hands on the serum somehow, even after Mr. Osborn died. Flash didn't join the Army, and he still lost his legs. Like she'd told Peter, the probability of her not dying at this point was too miniscule to measure. But it was different before Flash got hurt. She still had hope then, and she didn't have that anymore. She wasn't precisely sure how to go on with an unknown expiration date that was a certainty, but she'd figure it out somehow. She wasn't as fatalistic about him, though.] You could still date her. Mary Jane. I know you like her.
[She knew he wouldn't be sorry.] Peter thinks you blame him for not going. And it doesn't matter if I went, Flash. Nothing hurt me, and it's not like I have a long shelf life anyway. There would've been worse ways to go than with you around.
