i hate my life

“Well, if you insist,” it’s not like he had a lot of money, so maybe it was a good thing that he had someone to pay for his food. He should probably save money, to buy a place, not that he needed a place to sleep anyway, as he didn’t need sleep, but then again, he also didn’t need food, “I agree, it’s probably one of my favorites, pasta is just so good,” he could just eat it for the rest of his life, he wouldn’t get sick of it, ever, “It’s nice meeting you too,” he smiled, “Not that long, mostly because shortly after I became an adult, I had to go back to where I was born.”

“Are you sure? I don’t mind paying,” he said, he wouldn’t mind letting him pay, but he didn’t see any necessity in that, “We could eat pizza, or maybe a hamburger, or we could go to an Italian restaurant,” he smiled at him, he liked a lot all of the options, so he was having a hard time to pick just one, “Yeah, people know me as Nightwing, the one with the black suit though.”

out of all the ‘spider’ heroes mary-jane has met, kaine was always the one she never really got to know. the two didn’t talk an awful lot and she feels a bit guilty, any friend of peters is a friend of mj’s. it’s when he asks her about clothing that her face lights up, a pleased grin forming as her attention turns to the clothes on the wall. “you, my friend.” she begins, linking her arm with the spiders as she moves him away from the t-shirt section. “have come to the right person! what’s the special occasion? or are you just wanting to spice up your wardrobe?”

“Maybe you can stop them? You’re one of the vigilantes, you arrested criminals before, I could help if you want,” he knew that if the other knew about his secret, that he was also one of the heroes, that it wouldn’t bite him in the ass in the future. He wasn’t a bad guy, so it was okay if he knew about it, “You do now,” he smiled, “Nah, I’m free, we can totally have lunch together.”

“Don’t be,” his parents deserved to stay in there, so he was not sorry at all, “They seem to be really bad people, it’s what they deserve, maybe they will in the future,” he said with a small frown, he just hoped he wouldn’t ever have to deal with them again, “I don’t think I ever met him, the name doesn’t ring a bell,” he said, “Yeah, met too.”

“I have a little more luck when it comes to that, my biological parents are kind of stuck somewhere, and I probably won’t ever see them again. They are in jail,” technically, he wasn’t lying, the Phantom Zone could be seen as a jail, “Oh? What’s your brother’s name?” he asked with a small smile, maybe he met him? He just got back to the city, but he has run into a few people already, “Well, we can be friends if you want.”

”I’m sorry to hear that? Although it sounds like it might be for the best long as you’re okay with it though. If I could ship my creator to jail that would be ideal.” Kaine was not that lucky. “His name is Ben. Ben Reilly.” Kaine admits — his younger brother the more NORMAL one. “I would like that — to be friends.”

“I’m glad that you don’t have to deal with him here, I know how it is to have a parent that isn’t a good person, someone that don’t treat you like they should be treated, I wouldn’t wish that for anyone,” he frowned, he was the second person that he met that could relate to him, it was sad to think that it was something so common, “I hope that you have people that treat you better in your life now, you seem really nice, so it’s what you deserve.”

“Yeah? If only we could ship all of our bad parents somewhere they would be guaranteed to never show up again.” Kaine doesn’t trust Miles in this year to not figure out who he was — since that would be just his luck. “I have a little brother so that’s ONE PERSON. I don’t have many people if I’m honest. Which is alright.” He shrugs his shoulders knowing that it was his own fault for pushing strangers away. “I wonder what it’s like to have A FRIEND though.”

Clone being real, and someone coming from the future, was not something that shocked him, his life wasn’t really normal, so nothing shocked him anymore, “A clone? That’s interesting, did they create you to use you for good or bad things?” he asked, he could have been created by a villain and have ended up becoming a hero, “Nice meeting you.”

“My creator was a super villain, so he had plans for using me to aid in his agenda. I wasn’t born right originally, a flaw in my code, and he rejected me. I got to choose what to do with the life given to me from there. My father isn’t a good man, and I’m glad to be in a time period where he doesn’t know me.” The clone admits, and he struggles still sometimes thinking he deserves to have a life of his own — was he a real boy?

“I guess I get that,” he rarely ever called him like that nor seen himself as such, “Spider? Do you have the same powers as Spider-Man?” he asked, “Well, it’s nice meeting you, I’m Chris.”

Koine thinks that calling yourself A HERO should be reserved for people that deserves it, and he doesn’t fall under that category. “I’m his clone from the future. It’s complicated. My webs are organic though so we have some differences. It’s nice to meet you. You can call me Kaine.” Screw a secret identity, long as he didn’t give a last name.

“Could take him somewhere so we could ask him when he wakes up or just dump him outside the police station. If he attacked a woman, almost certain it wasn’t the first time. Yer call kid.” Logan offers blandly with a barely noticeable roll of his eyes as he leans against the side of the building. 

“I see,” he knew that he wasn’t lying, because he could hear his heartbeat, “That’s very brave of you, do you go around saving people often?”

”I don’t like to call myself a HERO, but I guess that’s what I am.” Kaine admits with a shrug of his shoulders — he hates that word. “They call me Scarlet Spider.”

“Sounds like a real asshat, good job.” He states bluntly as he gets a closer look at the offender laying on the ground. Nudging the man over onto his back with his foot to look at the guys face. “Ya think he’s a normal asshat or do ya think hes part of that cure shit going around?” 

“I’m all ears,” he wasn’t judging him, maybe he was one of the good guys, and only knocked him down because the guy deserved it.

Kaine takes in a deep breath because he know what this looks like. “The guy was trying to hurt someone. She ran off after I distracted him.”

Sensing the man was still alive Logan simply turned his attention to Kaine ready to hear the whole story. “I’m listenin.” 

There was something about this scene that the alien did not like. Every person around him looked like they were getting ready to pass out due to the boredom of waiting. “How depressing.” He thought, before walking to an open in the center of the group.

“Stop me if you’ve heard this before.” Noh-Varr said loudly, gathering everyone’s attention. “It’s going to be great.” It only took a minute to get ready before belting out a song.

Why do these situations ALWAYS happen to him? Kaine was sighing as he crosses his arms over his chest. The line was moving slower than he would like, and he knew that they’d all be there for at least ten more minutes.

“Well it’s not exactly bad-bad we’re just…going out without actual orders and fixing shit that needs fixing? If we get caught we might just get grounded” he winked at the guy and wiggled his brows “ Oh my, such a knight in shinning armor for saying that. I was thinking of showing a bunch’a bullies that karma is 100% a bitch infact they are two bitches – us! “

Kaine never really likes the whole HERO thing, but he can’t deny having a little fun. He might just be convinced as he looks at Tommy. “No one is grounding anyone. Anyone tries to take us down are getting STABBED. I have no tolerance for assholes, so let’s go teach those guys a lesson.”
