While dangling his head upside down from the top bunk, a question popped into Peter's head. "Hey, Nic, who's your favorite superhero? I don't think I ever asked you before."
     ââPeter, are ya fishinâ fer compliments from me?â
    {/He was expecting her to say Spider-man, right? Right. Sheâs absolutely sure of it. For a moment, Nicole just pulls her eyes away from him and looks back down at the game she had been playing. HonestlyâŚso rude. Interrupting her game just for some compliments and validation. WhichâŚwas actually pretty valid, if she had to say so. Nicole understands how hard it can get sometimes, and just knowing someone thinks well of you can do a helluva difference in your mood.
     With a small hum, Nicole lowers her game from her face to peer back at Peter. Sheâs pretty sure he wouldnât like her answer, but at least sheâd get some amusement out of him.}
     âWell. I donâ have a favorite outta tha ones youse know. I meanâŚtheyâre all okay. BuââŚI guess if I had ta pick a favorite, iâs tha kid starinâ aâ me righâ now. Noâ âSpider-Manâ. Buâ Peter Parker. Tha boy whoâs balancinâ bothf his life anâ his duty as a hero. Tha guy who does whaâ he can ta make sure tha city is okay, anâ his family. Doinâ his homework, stoppinâ crooksâŚ.all thaâ. A guy as young as him whoâs literally basicallyâŚdoinâ everythinâ anâ then some? Thaâs my favorite.â
