Peter Parker [11:47 PM]
Okay so, someone killed Stacy Gwen. Not on purpose. Well. Indirectly. Which is apparently a thing now.
Miles got falsely accused of murdering his own girlfriend—which, first of all, rude of the universe—but it was actually Harry Osborn who did it. Indirectly. And he didn't even apologize. Just walked around like "well technically—"
I hate it here.
Anyway. Then there's the whole MJ situation.
MJ was dating Paul. Paul exists. I think. Then Ned told me they broke up because MJ started going out with Felicia. Which, okay, good for her. But THEN Felicia was also talking to Silver Sable. And MJ found out. And Silver Sable showed up at Paul's apartment—where MJ was staying, by the way—and Felicia was there, and it was like a triangle but not a triangle because Paul was also there but nobody cared about Paul.
So MJ and Silver Sable started fighting over Felicia.
In Paul's apartment.
While Paul stood there.
Making coffee, probably.
Cindy got involved because she's confused about everyone going at each other's throats, and I had to tell her it was best she just... stay low. In another universe. While this whole thing solved itself. I even told Carlie to stick with Silk for a while because she gets lost easily and I did NOT have the bandwidth to find her.
Then Liz Allan found out what Harry did to Gwen.
She was on a date with him at the time.
Bad timing, honestly.
She absolutely lost it. Right there. In the restaurant. I heard she threw a breadstick. I choose to believe that's true.
And THEN—because this week wasn't done with me—Debra and Betty suddenly got this idea. Like, a bad one. A "let's bring Gwen back to life" kind of idea.
I said that's crazy. That's insane. That's not how things work.
Then Bobbi got involved.
And holy shit, their project worked.
Miles cried a lot. Which was sweet but also very wet and also Gwen was alive again so I guess I can't complain.
Pretty much... I don't know what to do right now. Everything happened in one week. One. Week.
Wade and I just laid low in his apartment while waiting for everyone to cool down. Relationships are messy these days, man. I'm staying out of it.

THE CHART:
MJ ←→ Paul (dating)
MJ ←→ Paul (broke up)
MJ ←→ Felicia (formal dates)
Felicia ←→ Silver Sable (formal dates)
MJ ⚔️ Silver Sable (fighting over Felicia)
Peter's personal note: Paul gets ignored and nobody likes him.
Peter's captions (in no particular order):
📍 wade's apartment.
🕸️ Miles gets falsely accused of murder of his girlfriend, but he didn't do it. Harry did. But like. Indirectly. So nobody can really do anything about it legally, I guess?? It's a whole thing.
🕸️ I don't know how to explain it, man. I wasn't there. I was hiding in the vents.
🕸️ There was screaming, okay.
🕸️ Because MJ found out Felicia was also talking to Silver Sable, and then Silver Sable showed up to Paul's apartment where MJ was staying, and Felicia was there, and it was like a triangle but not a triangle because Paul was also there but nobody cared about Paul.
🕸️ All happened in one week. Yeah. It was like a soap opera except everyone was crying and someone threw a lamp.
🕸️ MJ threw a lamp at Paul. It was kinda sick, actually. Her form was perfect.
🕸️ I mean. I was in the vents.
🕸️ Okay, fine. I also helped Miles hide the body.
🕸️ NO NOT LIKE THAT. The police were coming and he was freaking out so I just... webbed it to the ceiling. Until things cooled down. It was Gwen's body, I wasn't gonna leave her on the floor. I have RESPECT.
🕸️ It was TEMPORARY.
🕸️ Okay but like. Does this mean my luck is fixing itself???
Update: Wade says "killing for me is his love language" and he wants to know if that's a threat or flirting. Also can someone check on Harry? I think Liz might actually kill him this time. Also Miles is doing okay but he keeps hugging Gwen every five minutes which is sweet but also weird because she keeps asking why everyone's acting like she was dead. Should I tell her she was dead? Debra and Betty said not to but Bobbi said full transparency is important for resurrection trauma and I don't know whose advice to take.

THE AVERAGERS CHAT LOG
——— TUESDAY, 11:47 PM ———
Tony Stark: i'm sorry i need to go back to the beginning of that text
Tony Stark: what do you mean "kill girlfriend indirectly"
Tony Stark: that's not a thing. you can't indirectly kill someone. that's just. killing someone.
Steve Rogers: Peter, are you alright? Where are you right now?
Natasha Romanoff: He's with Wade. That's already concerning.
Clint Barton: okay but can we talk about the CHART. who makes a CHART about their friends' relationship drama
Bruce Banner: Peter's brain is very organized under stress. I respect it.
Tony Stark: no we are NOT respecting the chart
Tony Stark: Peter you had a DEAD BODY on the CEILING
Peter Parker: TEMPORARILY
Peter Parker: it was respectful temporary ceiling body storage
Peter Parker: i even used the good webbing
Clint Barton: there's good webbing for dead bodies???
Peter Parker: there's good webbing for EVERYTHING clint
Thor: THE SPIDER-CHILD SPEAKS OF DEATH AND RESURRECTION AS THOUGH IT WERE A MERE TUESDAY
Peter Parker: i mean
Peter Parker: it WAS tuesday
Peter Parker: like two tuesdays ago
Natasha Romanoff: I'm going to need you to walk us through this chronologically.
Peter Parker: okay so
Peter Parker: wait
Peter Parker: first can someone check on Harry
Peter Parker: Liz was making a LOT of eye contact with the decorative candlestick
Tony Stark: harry osborn is not my problem right now peter
Peter Parker: okay but she might actually kill him and that would be like
Peter Parker: a direct kill this time
Peter Parker: and I think legally that's worse
Steve Rogers: Peter. Please start from the beginning.
Peter Parker: okay so
Peter Parker: [Peter is typing...]
Peter Parker: [Peter is typing...]
Peter Parker: okay so you know how my life is usually like a dumpster fire in a train wreck during a hurricane
Tony Stark: unfortunately yes
Peter Parker: right so
Peter Parker: for ONE WEEK
Peter Parker: the universe decided actually the dumpster fire is for everyone ELSE
Peter Parker: and i just got to WATCH
Peter Parker: from the VENTS
Peter Parker: wade's vents are very spacious by the way great ventilation
Clint Barton: why do you know about wade's vent spaciousness
Peter Parker: [Peter is typing...]
Peter Parker: anyway
Natasha Romanoff: Peter.
Peter Parker: OKAY SO
Peter Parker: miles and gwen right
Peter Parker: they're dating it's cute whatever
Peter Parker: then gwen dies
Peter Parker: well she gets killed
Peter Parker: indirectly
Peter Parker: by harry
Bruce Banner: How do you indirectly kill someone?
Peter Parker: okay so harry did something
Peter Parker: and then that something caused something else
Peter Parker: and then that something else caused gwen to die
Peter Parker: so technically
Peter Parker: legally speaking
Peter Parker: it wasn't murder it was like
Peter Parker: murder-adjacent
Peter Parker: manslaughter-adjacent-adjacent
Peter Parker: adjacent to the adjacent
Tony Stark: that's not how laws work peter
Peter Parker: i KNOW but that's what everyone keeps SAYING
Peter Parker: so miles gets accused
Peter Parker: because of course he does
Peter Parker: because the universe HATES miles
Peter Parker: actually wait no the universe hates ME
Peter Parker: the universe just has mild disdain for miles
Peter Parker: so anyway i help miles hide the body
Steve Rogers: PETER
Peter Parker: FROM THE POLICE STEVE
Peter Parker: i wasn't gonna let them take gwen's body while miles was having a full breakdown
Peter Parker: that's just common decency
Peter Parker: i webbed her to the ceiling
Peter Parker: of wade's apartment
Peter Parker: because we were already there
Peter Parker: hiding from the drama
Peter Parker: and wade was like "she's not bleeding on my good floor" and i was like "she's not bleeding at all she's dead" and he was like "even better"
Peter Parker: anyway then debra and betty showed up
Clint Barton: debra and betty.
Peter Parker: yeah they had an idea
Peter Parker: about bringing gwen back
Peter Parker: and i was like "that's crazy that's insane that's not how things work"
Peter Parker: but then bobbi got involved
Peter Parker: and she was like "well actually"
Peter Parker: and then there was SCIENCE
Peter Parker: and then gwen was alive again
Peter Parker: and miles cried a lot
Peter Parker: which was sweet but also very wet
Thor: THIS IS THE MOST MIDGARDIAN THING I HAVE EVER HEARD
Thor: YOUR REALM HAS NO RESPECT FOR THE NATURAL ORDER
Peter Parker: okay in my defense i was just hiding in the vents
Peter Parker: i wasn't IN CHARGE of the resurrection
Peter Parker: i was just there
Peter Parker: morally supporting
Peter Parker: from above
Tony Stark: you were in the vents.
Peter Parker: i was in the vents yes
Peter Parker: they're very comfortable vents tony
Peter Parker: wade has pillow in there
Natasha Romanoff: Wade Wilson has pillows in his vents.
Peter Parker: he said it's for "cozy surveillance"
Peter Parker: i don't ask questions anymore
Peter Parker: anyway so gwen's alive now
Peter Parker: which is great
Peter Parker: but now she keeps asking why everyone's acting like she was dead
Peter Parker: and debra and betty said not to tell her
Peter Parker: but bobbi said full transparency is important for resurrection trauma
Peter Parker: and i don't know who to listen to because one time debra told me eating an entire cheesecake was "self care" and bobbi told me that was "a path to early onset diabetes"
Peter Parker: so their advice track record is mixed
Steve Rogers: Peter.
Peter Parker: yeah?
Steve Rogers: Did anyone tell Gwen's parents.
Peter Parker: [Peter is typing...]
Peter Parker: okay so about that
Peter Parker: that's a tomorrow problem
Peter Parker: today problem was making sure miles didn't fight harry
Peter Parker: and also the mj situation
Peter Parker: did i get to the mj situation in the text
Peter Parker: i feel like i didn't fully explain the mj situation
Tony Stark: you put it on a CHART peter
Tony Stark: with ARROWS
Tony Stark: multiple arrows
Clint Barton: the paul note is sending me
Clint Barton: "paul gets ignored and nobody likes him"
Clint Barton: who is paul
Peter Parker: exactly
Peter Parker: nobody knows
Peter Parker: he just showed up one day
Peter Parker: and mj was dating him
Peter Parker: and we all just had to accept it
Peter Parker: like a group project where someone brings their friend who doesn't do anything
Peter Parker: and then mj found out felicia was also talking to silver sable
Peter Parker: and then silver sable showed up at paul's apartment
Peter Parker: where mj was staying
Peter Parker: and felicia was there
Peter Parker: and paul was also there
Peter Parker: but nobody cared about paul
Natasha Romanoff: Why was Felicia there?
Peter Parker: she was dating mj
Peter Parker: well they went on some dates
Peter Parker: and also felicia was dating silver sable
Peter Parker: or they were seeing each other
Peter Parker: it's unclear
Peter Parker: relationships are messy these days
Bruce Banner: And MJ threw a lamp at Paul.
Peter Parker: her form was INCREDIBLE
Peter Parker: i was in the vents
Peter Parker: i had front row seats
Peter Parker: wade gave me popcorn
Peter Parker: he had a little snack stash up there
Clint Barton: wade has a snack stash in his vents.
Peter Parker: and a pillow
Peter Parker: i told you
Peter Parker: cozy surveillance
Tony Stark: okay i need you to answer one question
Tony Stark: and i need you to be honest with me
Peter Parker: okay?
Tony Stark: did you at any point during this week
Tony Stark: leave the vents
Peter Parker: [Peter is typing...]
Peter Parker: i left to help miles with the body
Tony Stark: that doesn't count you webbed it to the ceiling
Peter Parker: okay true
Peter Parker: i left to get more snacks
Peter Parker: wade's snack stash ran out after day three
Peter Parker: we had to restock
Peter Parker: we went to that bodega on 4th
Peter Parker: the one with the cat
Peter Parker: his name is mr whiskers
Peter Parker: he's very judgmental
Peter Parker: anyway
Tony Stark: so you spent an entire week
Tony Stark: in deadpool's vents
Tony Stark: eating snacks
Tony Stark: watching your friends have the most insane relationship drama known to man
Tony Stark: while one of them was technically dead
Tony Stark: then not dead
Tony Stark: and you're telling me
Tony Stark: the universe didn't bother you
Tony Stark: ONCE
Peter Parker: [Peter is typing...]
Peter Parker: okay so
Peter Parker: here's the thing
Peter Parker: i didn't want to jinx it
Peter Parker: but yeah
Peter Parker: no one tried to kill me
Peter Parker: no buildings fell on me
Peter Parker: no villains showed up
Peter Parker: no one from another dimension tried to erase me from existence
Peter Parker: it was
Peter Parker: quiet
Peter Parker: well
Peter Parker: quiet is relative
Peter Parker: there was a lot of screaming
Peter Parker: but it wasn't MY screaming
Peter Parker: for once
Peter Parker: wade said it was because i finally "took a break from being the universe's favorite chew toy"
Peter Parker: his words not mine
Peter Parker: and then he said killing for him is his love language
Peter Parker: and i don't know if that's a threat or flirting
Peter Parker: can someone help me with that
Peter Parker: actually never mind i don't want to know
Steve Rogers: Peter. I'm glad you had a week where nothing terrible happened to you specifically.
Steve Rogers: But you need to tell me you're okay.
Peter Parker: i'm okay steve
Peter Parker: i'm actually
Peter Parker: i think i'm good
Peter Parker: wade made sure i ate
Peter Parker: and slept
Peter Parker: well i slept in the vents
Peter Parker: but i slept
Peter Parker: and we watched a lot of terrible reality tv
Peter Parker: and he didn't even make fun of me when i cried during that one episode of great british bake off
Peter Parker: the one where the guy dropped his cake
Peter Parker: you know the one
Bruce Banner: I know the one.
Peter Parker: anyway
Peter Parker: i think my luck might be fixing itself
Peter Parker: like maybe the universe finally got bored
Peter Parker: or maybe wade's vents are like a pocket dimension where bad things can't find me
Peter Parker: either way
Peter Parker: it was nice
Peter Parker: to just
Peter Parker: watch
Peter Parker: and not have to fix everything
Peter Parker: for once
Tony Stark: [Tony Stark is typing...]
Tony Stark: kid
Tony Stark: i'm glad you had a break
Tony Stark: but you know you can come here right
Tony Stark: you don't have to hide in deadpool's ventilation system to get away from things
Tony Stark: i have guest rooms
Tony Stark: with doors
Tony Stark: and no dead bodies on the ceiling
Peter Parker: yeah but
Peter Parker: wade had popcorn
Peter Parker: and also i don't think the universe would leave me alone if i was at the tower
Peter Parker: the universe knows where the tower is
Peter Parker: the universe doesn't know where wade's vents are
Peter Parker: i think the universe is scared of wade's apartment honestly
Peter Parker: have you seen his bathroom
Peter Parker: i think even cosmic entities have standards
Natasha Romanoff: That's fair.
Clint Barton: okay wait we got sidetracked
Clint Barton: what happened with harry
Clint Barton: you said liz might kill him
Peter Parker: oh right
Peter Parker: so liz found out about the whole gwen situation
Peter Parker: and she was on a date with harry
Peter Parker: and she just
Peter Parker: lost it
Peter Parker: right there
Peter Parker: in the restaurant
Peter Parker: she threw her drink at him
Peter Parker: and then the glass
Peter Parker: and then the bread basket
Peter Parker: and then she tried to stab him with a breadstick
Peter Parker: which is honestly impressive
Peter Parker: breadsticks are not sharp
Peter Parker: but she made it work
Peter Parker: wade was very proud
Peter Parker: he said "that's my energy right there"
Peter Parker: and then harry ran
Peter Parker: and liz chased him
Peter Parker: through the restaurant
Peter Parker: and out into the street
Peter Parker: and i think she might still be chasing him
Peter Parker: i haven't checked
Peter Parker: someone should check
Thor: THIS IS THE MOST ENTERTAINING THING I HAVE HEARD IN CENTURIES
Thor: THE SPIDER-CHILD'S FRIENDS LIVE IN A CONSTANT STATE OF CHAOS
Thor: IT IS LIKE ASGARDIAN THEATER BUT WITH MORE LAMPS
Peter Parker: there was only one lamp
Thor: ONE LAMP IS STILL MORE THAN ASGARDIAN THEATER
Tony Stark: okay everyone stop
Tony Stark: peter
Tony Stark: you said wade said killing is his love language
Peter Parker: yeah
Tony Stark: and you don't know if that's a threat or flirting
Peter Parker: correct
Tony Stark: with wade
Tony Stark: it's both
Peter Parker: oh
Peter Parker: okay
Peter Parker: that's
Peter Parker: that's fine
Peter Parker: i'm fine with that
Peter Parker: i think
Peter Parker: wait
Peter Parker: is that fine
Natasha Romanoff: Peter.
Peter Parker: yeah?
Natasha Romanoff: Do you want it to be flirting?
Peter Parker: [Peter is typing...]
Peter Parker: i
Peter Parker: i mean
Peter Parker: he had pillows in his vents
Peter Parker: for me
Peter Parker: specifically
Peter Parker: he said "i put these here for when you inevitably need to hide from your problems"
Peter Parker: and he had my favorite snacks
Peter Parker: and he didn't even try to kill anyone
Peter Parker: well
Peter Parker: he didn't try to kill anyone that didn't deserve it
Peter Parker: there was one guy
Peter Parker: but he was being really loud outside the apartment at 3am
Peter Parker: and wade said "that's disrespectful to people who are trying to emotionally recover"
Peter Parker: and then he went outside
Peter Parker: and the guy wasn't loud anymore
Peter Parker: so
Peter Parker: i think it was flirting
Peter Parker: maybe
Peter Parker: i don't know
Peter Parker: relationships are messy
Steve Rogers: Peter.
Steve Rogers: When this is over
Steve Rogers: When Gwen is adjusted to being alive again
Steve Rogers: And Miles stops crying every five minutes
Steve Rogers: And MJ and Felicia and Silver Sable figure out whatever is happening there
Steve Rogers: And Liz either kills Harry or doesn't
Steve Rogers: I want you to come to the tower
Steve Rogers: And we're going to talk about this
Steve Rogers: And also about the fact that you have a designated hiding spot in someone's ventilation system
Steve Rogers: Because that's not a long-term solution
Peter Parker: but the vents are really comfortable
Steve Rogers: Peter.
Peter Parker: okay fine
Peter Parker: but can wade come
Peter Parker: he has to know i'm safe
Peter Parker: otherwise he'll "go feral" and i don't know what that means but it sounded scary
Tony Stark: wade can come
Tony Stark: but he's not allowed to bring any weapons
Tony Stark: or talk about killing as a love language
Tony Stark: or show up in the vents
Tony Stark: we don't have vents in the guest rooms actually
Tony Stark: we have heating like normal people
Peter Parker: oh
Peter Parker: okay
Peter Parker: i'll let him know
Peter Parker: he's gonna be disappointed about the vents though
Peter Parker: he really liked the vent thing
Natasha Romanoff: Of course he did.
Peter Parker: okay i gotta go
Peter Parker: miles is calling me
Peter Parker: he said gwen is asking too many questions
Peter Parker: and also liz just showed up at the apartment
Peter Parker: and she's still holding a breadstick
Peter Parker: i don't know where she got another breadstick
Peter Parker: but she has one
Peter Parker: and harry is also there
Peter Parker: somehow
Peter Parker: i don't know why he's there
Peter Parker: he should not be there
Peter Parker: anyway i'll update you later
Peter Parker: if i survive
Peter Parker: haha
Peter Parker: that's a joke
Peter Parker: mostly
Peter Parker: wade says hi
Peter Parker: he also says "your vents are inferior stark and i will die on this hill"
Tony Stark: tell wade he's not allowed to die on any hills in my tower
Peter Parker: he said "that's fair i'll die on peter's hill instead"
Peter Parker: i don't know what that means
Peter Parker: okay i really gotta go
Peter Parker: miles is crying again
Peter Parker: and gwen is asking why she's wearing the same clothes from two weeks ago
Peter Parker: this is fine
Peter Parker: everything is fine
Peter Parker: [Peter Parker has left the chat]
Tony Stark: ...
Steve Rogers: ...
Natasha Romanoff: I'm going to check on them.
Clint Barton: can you record it
Natasha Romanoff: No.
Clint Barton: okay but can you at least describe it in detail later
Natasha Romanoff: ...Maybe.
Thor: I WOULD ALSO LIKE DETAILED ACCOUNTS
Thor: THIS IS BETTER THAN MIDGARDIAN TELEVISION
Bruce Banner: I'm just glad Peter had one week where nothing happened to him.
Bruce Banner: Even if everything happened around him.
Tony Stark: yeah
Tony Stark: okay but can we talk about the chart again
Tony Stark: who puts a dead body on a chart
Clint Barton: tony let it go
Tony Stark: i will never let it go
Tony Stark: "temporary respectful ceiling body storage" is going on his tombstone
Tony Stark: if he ever dies
Tony Stark: which he won't
Tony Stark: because i'll kill him first
Tony Stark: for putting a dead body on a chart
Steve Rogers: Tony.
Tony Stark: what
Steve Rogers: That's not how you show someone you care about them.
Tony Stark: tell that to wade
Tony Stark: killing is his love language apparently
Tony Stark: i'm just adapting
Natasha Romanoff: I hate all of you.
Natasha Romanoff: I'm going to go make sure Liz doesn't actually kill Harry with a breadstick.
Natasha Romanoff: And also find out what happened to Paul.
Clint Barton: oh right paul
Clint Barton: what DID happen to paul
Natasha Romanoff: I don't know.
Natasha Romanoff: But I'm going to find out.
Natasha Romanoff: Because unlike everyone else in this chat
Natasha Romanoff: I have questions.
Tony Stark: i have questions
Tony Stark: my questions are just about the chart
Steve Rogers: Tony.
Tony Stark: AND THE VENTS
Tony Stark: WHY DOES DEADPOOL HAVE PILLOWS IN HIS VENTS
Tony Stark: HOW LONG HAS HE BEEN PREPARING FOR PETER TO HIDE THERE
Tony Stark: IS THAT ROMANTIC OR CONCERNING
Clint Barton: it's wade
Clint Barton: it's both
Tony Stark: [Tony Stark is typing...]
Tony Stark: that's what i said about the flirting thing
Tony Stark: i'm right about everything
Tony Stark: someone put that on my tombstone
Steve Rogers: No one is putting anything on anyone's tombstone.
Steve Rogers: We're all going to be fine.
Steve Rogers: Peter is fine.
Steve Rogers: His friends are mostly fine.
Steve Rogers: Gwen is alive again.
Steve Rogers: Everything is fine.
Natasha Romanoff: Liz just threw the breadstick at Harry.
Natasha Romanoff: It hit him in the eye.
Natasha Romanoff: He's fine.
Natasha Romanoff: But she's yelling about how she "didn't sign up for being in a CW show."
Clint Barton: incredible
Thor: WHAT IS A CW SHOW
Bruce Banner: You don't want to know.
Thor: I FEEL I DO WANT TO KNOW
Bruce Banner: Trust me.
Tony Stark: okay i'm going to go build something
Tony Stark: to process
Tony Stark: maybe a vent
Tony Stark: with pillows
Tony Stark: just to see what the hype is about
Steve Rogers: Tony.
Tony Stark: i'm joking
Tony Stark: mostly
Tony Stark: [Tony Stark is typing...]
Tony Stark: okay i'm actually going to build a vent
Tony Stark: for research
Tony Stark: shut up
Steve Rogers: I didn't say anything.
Tony Stark: you were thinking it
Steve Rogers: I was thinking many things.
Steve Rogers: The vent thing wasn't in the top five.
Tony Stark: what was in the top five
Steve Rogers: 1. How Peter made a chart about his friends' relationship drama while hiding in a vent.
Steve Rogers: 2. Why Miles was the one accused of killing Gwen when Harry did it "indirectly."
Steve Rogers: 3. What "indirectly" actually means in this context.
Steve Rogers: 4. Who Paul is and why no one cares about him.
Steve Rogers: 5. Why I have to explain to Gwen's parents that their daughter was dead for a week and then brought back to life by Debra and Betty from accounting.
Tony Stark: ...debra and betty are from accounting???
Steve Rogers: I don't know. Peter said "Debra and Betty" like I was supposed to know who they are.
Clint Barton: i think they're from the bugle
Clint Barton: or something
Clint Barton: peter knows a lot of people named debra and betty
Bruce Banner: Debra Whitman and Betty Brant.
Bruce Banner: Former Bugle employees.
Bruce Banner: Not from accounting.
Bruce Banner: Technically.
Tony Stark: this is the most information we've gotten all night
Tony Stark: bruce came through with the lore
Bruce Banner: I read Peter's reports.
Bruce Banner: Someone has to.
Tony Stark: okay i'm actually going to build the vent now
Tony Stark: don't wait up
Tony Stark: [Tony Stark has left the chat]
Steve Rogers: ...
Clint Barton: should we be concerned about tony building a vent
Steve Rogers: It's Tony.
Steve Rogers: It's always concerning.
Natasha Romanoff: Update: Liz has stopped yelling.
Natasha Romanoff: She's crying now.
Natasha Romanoff: Harry is also crying.
Natasha Romanoff: Miles is crying.
Natasha Romanoff: Gwen is confused.
Natasha Romanoff: MJ and Felicia are arguing in the corner.
Natasha Romanoff: Silver Sable is standing there looking like she regrets every decision that led to this moment.
Natasha Romanoff: Paul is in the kitchen making coffee.
Natasha Romanoff: No one is drinking the coffee.
Natasha Romanoff: I'm drinking the coffee.
Natasha Romanoff: It's terrible.
Natasha Romanoff: Paul made it.
Clint Barton: amazing
Thor: I WISH TO BE THERE
Thor: THIS SOUNDS LIKE A FEAST OF EMOTIONS
Natasha Romanoff: It's not a feast, Thor.
Natasha Romanoff: It's an apartment full of crying people and terrible coffee.
Natasha Romanoff: Peter is back.
Natasha Romanoff: He came in through the window.
Natasha Romanoff: He's in the vents again.
Natasha Romanoff: He brought Wade.
Natasha Romanoff: They have more snacks.
Natasha Romanoff: Wade is narrating everything like it's a nature documentary.
Natasha Romanoff: "Here we see the mourning spider in his natural habitat, tears streaming down his face as he clings to his resurrected mate. Truly, a miracle of modern science and several questionable life choices."
Natasha Romanoff: Miles threw a pillow at him.
Natasha Romanoff: It hit Peter instead.
Natasha Romanoff: Peter said "I'm not even involved in this" and then ate a chip.
Clint Barton: this is the best night of my life
Steve Rogers: I need to go to bed.
Steve Rogers: Before I say something I regret.
Steve Rogers: Like asking for more updates.
Clint Barton: i'm asking for more updates
Clint Barton: natasha please continue
Natasha Romanoff: No.
Natasha Romanoff: I'm turning off my phone.
Natasha Romanoff: If anyone dies, text Steve.
Natasha Romanoff: [Natasha Romanoff has left the chat]
Clint Barton: she's not actually turning off her phone
Clint Barton: she's just done with us
Steve Rogers: That's fair.
Thor: I SHALL ALSO RETIRE
Thor: BUT FIRST
Thor: I WISH TO KNOW IF PAUL IS STILL MAKING COFFEE
Steve Rogers: Thor.
Thor: WHAT
Thor: THE MAN'S DEDICATION TO COFFEE DESERVES RECOGNITION
Thor: EVEN IF NO ONE DRINKS IT
Steve Rogers: Goodnight, Thor.
Thor: GOODNIGHT, CAPTAIN
Thor: MAY YOUR DREAMS BE FREE OF CHARTS AND CEILING BODIES
Steve Rogers: [Steve Rogers has left the chat]
Clint Barton: ...
Clint Barton: bruce you still here
Bruce Banner: Unfortunately.
Clint Barton: do you think peter's okay
Bruce Banner: I think Peter spent a week in Deadpool's vents eating snacks and watching his friends have the most chaotic interpersonal drama in recorded history.
Bruce Banner: And for the first time in his life, none of it was his problem.
Bruce Banner: I think he's probably better than he's been in years.
Clint Barton: yeah
Clint Barton: that makes sense
Clint Barton: okay i'm gonna go
Clint Barton: tell peter i said hi
Clint Barton: and that his chart was beautiful
Clint Barton: and that i support him and wade
Clint Barton: whatever that is
Bruce Banner: I'll tell him.
Clint Barton: [Clint Barton has left the chat]
Bruce Banner: ...
Bruce Banner: [Bruce Banner has left the chat]
——— WADE'S VENTS, 1:23 AM ———
Peter Parker: hey wade
Deadpool: yeah baby boy?
Peter Parker: tony said he's building a vent
Peter Parker: with pillows
Peter Parker: to see what the hype is about
Deadpool: oh no
Deadpool: is he trying to compete with me
Deadpool: does he think he can offer superior vent accommodations
Deadpool: because i will NOT be out-vented by a man who thinks the color scheme of his tower is "sophisticated"
Peter Parker: it's not a competition
Deadpool: EVERYTHING IS A COMPETITION
Deadpool: especially when it comes to providing you with optimal hiding spots
Deadpool: i had those vents custom-made
Deadpool: the pillows are memory foam
Deadpool: i measured the airflow
Deadpool: i have a snack rotation schedule
Deadpool: stark can't compete with that
Peter Parker: okay
Peter Parker: okay that's
Peter Parker: that's really sweet actually
Deadpool: ...did you just call me sweet
Deadpool: i have a reputation peter
Deadpool: i kill people
Deadpool: i'm scary
Deadpool: i'm the merc with a mouth not the merc with a heart
Peter Parker: you have both
Peter Parker: that's why i like you
Deadpool: ...
Deadpool: okay i'm going to pretend you didn't say that so i don't have an emotion
Deadpool: but also
Deadpool: i'm putting more pillows in the vents
Deadpool: just in case
Peter Parker: okay
Peter Parker: hey wade
Deadpool: yeah?
Peter Parker: thanks for letting me hide here
Peter Parker: for the whole week
Peter Parker: i know it was a lot
Deadpool: peter
Deadpool: you can hide here anytime
Deadpool: forever
Deadpool: i mean
Deadpool: not in a weird way
Deadpool: okay maybe a little weird
