Chapter Text
The Secret Warrior’s base was filled with noise. From Doreen and Kamala loudly watching YouTube videos of superheroes and the lack of noise from Dante, Riri, and America watching them silently. Despite it being a Saturday, Daisy and Rayshuan were doing something for SHIELD and Gwen had an extra long band practice and something else with a “fellow insect hero.” The three would be randomly appearing throughout the day.
So the four were free to do as they wanted, which was watch YouTube videos of superheroes.
“Oh, oh, lookie!” Doreen showed her phone to Kamala.
“There’s Ghost-Spider videos?” She grinned in excitement.
“Hasn’t Gwen been a hero for a long while?” America shrugged. “Of course there would be videos.”
“Well, let’s watch them!” Kamala poked her best friend’s shoulder.
“Alright!” Doreen grinned, clicking the video on her phone which was bluetoothed to the HoloTV.
My Friend Tried to Flirt with Ghost-Spider
The video started out blurred before it focused to show a tree in a park.
Ghost-Spider was hanging upside down on a thick tree branch via her legs hooked around it, completely focused on whatever was on her phone.
There was loud whispering behind the camera.
“Dude, just go ask her out! Or do you wanna lose the bet?”
A teenage boy walked on screen and stood under Ghost-Spider.
“Heyyy.”
“Yo,” The spider mumbled, attention still on her phone.
The boy was not deterred. “I heard you’re good at algebra, can you replace my X without asking Y?”
At that moment Daisy and Rayshaun walked out of the elevator, pausing in their greetings at the sight of the video. They silently stood in the back to watch.
“I’m sure you can find a YouTube video to help you.”
There was muffled laughter from behind the camera, earning a glare from the teen.
“Are you a keyboard? Because you’re just my type.”
Ghost-Spider paused, finally tuning in completely to the conversation. “Uh, sorry, dude. I gotta go.”
“Oh,” The teen frowned, but tried one more time. “Well, can I have your number?”
“I don’t have a phone.”
Laughter filled the room at Gwen’s lousy excuse that is so completely her .
“What are you guys doing?” Daisy asked, a smile on her face and tone amused.
“We were watching hero videos, but we found some Ghost-Spider stuff and just started watching that,” Riri wiped away a tear. “Wanna join us?”
“This might be an invasion of Gwen’s privacy…” Rayshaun hesitated.
“It’s on YouTube,” America countered. “A public place, not really private.”
“She has a point,” Daisy told her fellow SHIELD agent, sitting down on the couch next to America. “It’ll be fun. Team bonding.”
“If it’s team bonding then shouldn’t Gwen be here?” Rayshaun grumbled, but plopped down next to Doreen.
“She’ll be here later on today,” Dante shrugged.
“Next video!” Doreen yelled, allowing the autoplay to count down.
