speak of the devil
All things considered, Spider-Man was doing okay.
On the other hand, Peter Parker wants someone to look at him. To see him, to not feel frustrated and alone anymore.
He had watched himself drift apart, watched death creep in through every edge of his vision, his entire body mutilated in a way he could never have imagined, left to drift away in space.
"Why did you save him?"
He needs the mask just to be.
