//Spider.Son

Peter was torn.  He did want to be proud of Benji… but he also felt like he had to do the Dad thing and do it right.  What was the compromise between the two?  He led Benji inside and sat him down on the living room sofa… hopefully they could talk quietly.

Benji wasn’t new to this whole hero business, he had been the other Spider-Man for years now. Brooklyn was his turf but that didn’t mean he wouldn’t accept help from other heroes when the moment called for it and the moment certainly had. Sure he’s dealt with threats like Hob Goblin and other supervillains but creatures from space? That wasn’t exactly his area of expertise.

So when this other hero offered his help, Benji was quick to accept. ‘ Yeah, I don’t exactly deal with big blue aliens threatening to destroy earth often… actually come to think of it I’ve never dealt with this in my entire life. ‘

When space threats came to earth, Aiden always tried to be the first on the spot to deal with the situation. But of course he couldn’t always do that, sometimes when he got to the scene of the attack other heroes were already taking care of the situation and he was okay with that.. Help was never too much. And that’s exactly what happened that day. He saw the other hero ready to face the alien, and offered to help, as always.

“Well– I already have a lot of experience with these kinds of problems.” Lately he had specialized in handling these issues, perhaps because he was now a Nova. “And that’s what they say, right ?? There is always a first time for everything.”

‘ So just tell me when to strike and how hard! I’ve got this! I’m also sticky... like really sticky and I’ve got webs. You’d be surprised how useful they can come when in sticky situations, ‘ Benji pauses for a moment trying to hold back laughter at the last part of his sentence. ‘ Sorry... right this is serious no time for joking around. ‘

Benji nods his head in understanding when Loki confirms that he’s okay. ‘ Man spidey senses are amazing, ‘ he chuckles giving the other a thumbs up. The question throws him off guard and Benji debates over in his head if he will need help or not. ‘ Uh - well… I’ll get back to you on that one. If you see me getting my ass handed to me? Jump in. ‘

Webbing himself up he swings over to the Hob Goblin, battle breaking out between the two and for the most part, Benji was doing pretty well in handling the other. Unfortunately, his luck ran out when Hob Goblin used an explosive to blind the spider hero.

Well, that was one way to put it. Loki had half a mind to leave the poor sap, but he remained; a debt was owed. The Jotun had a feeling he would have the chance to repay it as well considering the opponent seemed well versed. 

The tides shifted in an instant, and Loki was moving before he knew what he was doing. His hands swirl over another as a blade is summoned from nowhere. He makes a dash towards the villain, feigning a stab whilst the other hand charged a blue orb that soon sent the enemy reeling back. The Jotun spared a glance back towards the kid before advancing again; hopefully, he would recover well.

Benji, on the other hand, laid where the bomb from Goblin had landed him. Part of his suit singed and revealing the burns on his leg and side. ‘ Ow... awe this is gonna take a while for my body to heal up, ‘ he groans pushing himself to his feet. Benji looks toward the rubble where Hob Goblin lay struggling to get up and fight back. ‘ Hah! Hey, thank you! Oh man... he’s gonna be feeling that one. Hey! Hobby how does it feel! ‘ Benji laughs at the other, clutching his side when he does so. ‘ Oof - ow okay no more laughing until my healing factor kicks in. ‘

’ For once I can say there was no innuendo in there, scouts honour, ‘ he shifts to the left moving out of her way as asked of him. ‘ Working on something important? ‘

🔧 → ❝ Maybe, why? Gonna WATCH ME or something? ❞

’ Sorry, but spidey goo lasts for two hours. So you’re kinda out of luck… but come on you like the spider goo. You don’t have to lie to kick it, ‘ he teases.

🔧 → ❝ I know there’s an innuendo somewhere. Now move. ❞

Thank god, or rather his father, for sticky fingers otherwise his phone might have fallen out of his hand. Seeing Riri, however, he offers a small smile ‘ sticky fingers really do come in handy don’t they? ‘

🔧 → ❝ Great, now can you get your Spidey goo off of me, Junior? ❞
