#spidertiger

also I wrote my headcanon lore down below if you are interested

tbh they are my fav usm ship probably

if I was rewriting usm I would make them probably canon at some point

I love them sm but I think it would take them ages to get together, if they even would get together, but THE CHEMISTRY is beyond this world🧪

so like Ava wants Peter first, even she doesn’t wanna accept it she falls for him hard… it’s not subtle, it’s obvious, how she looks at him, how her hand lingers on his wrist, how she looks at his mouth when he talks

they share one casual kiss after difficult mission, it would be right after Peter broke up with Felicia Hardy, so he is very emotional and vulnerable, for him it feels like little mistake, but Ava falls in love

Peter realizes it and backs away… he feels awkward and guilty,… he tells himself it’s because team dynamics, which is true but it’s also because Ava wants him in a way he doesn’t know how to handle

Ava hates that he won’t touch her like touches everyone else, just in casually, friendly, carelessly… with her it feels distant and careful… she takes all of this as rejection, she is angry… but they suffer both, it’s not easy for neither of them

after this Ava starts pushing his buttons on purpose, standing too close, training too rough… she wants reaction, any kind of reaction… Peter gets little bit uncomfortable, he dodges conversation and disappears mid moment…

they are both incredibly smart, so this all feels like game of chess, every of their moves is very calculated and thought through

since Peter avoids Ava, he kinda avoids rest of the team too, he spends more of his free time at home rather than at helicarrier and start spending more time with MJ and become more close with her and decides to go to homecoming with her (as friends but there is obvious chemistry between them)… Ava is crushed and seeing them dance together makes her realize that this is destroying her… after that she slowly start letting go

ofc Peter’s and MJ’s relationship doesn’t really go anywhere too at that point bc like yeah they like each other but Peter’s fear and overthinking is again in the way,… he fears that dating her puts MJ in danger so like he again avoids the relationship… idk if he has avoidant attachment or it’s some kind of fear that he carries with him since his first relationship…

after while things go back to normal with Ava, kinda like they used to be before, Ava is mostly over him and he is okay with that

things are okay for a while until Ava starts dating someone (idk who yet 😭), Peter hates it and gets jelaous in worst way possible, he is quiet, whitdrawn and his martyr complex activstes,… Ava notices that he is acting up and she is pissed bc he is clearly bothered by something but won’t talk about it

eventually, it explodes during one mission, and it is too honest, they yell at each other: “you dont get to act like you dont care” “you dont get to decide what I can handle” “stop looking at me like that if you are not going to do anything about it!” they cross the line and it’s messy and emotional… also bit awkward bc rest of the team is there too and Sam has to yell at them to focus on mission (u know you fucked up when Sam is the one being responsible for once)

afterwards it’s bit awkward again, Ava is confused, she has boyfriends but she still really likes Peter… Peter is ashamed that he snapped on her… but they still care and no matter how many times they try to walk away, they keep coming back… neither of them wants something easy, they want something real even if it hurts

yes I’ve been thinking about this for very long time, I love them

also I’m gonna start using “#usm rewrite” for everything that that would be canon if I wrote usm lol,… so from now on if you are interested you’ll be able to find it under that hashtag on my blog

Ava: “....‘Whoo!’”

Peter: “And how do some people say ‘alright’ without using all of the syllables?”

Ava: “... ‘Aight.’”

Peter: “Good. Ok, now what’s the thing men put around their neck with a suit?”

Ava: “A tie?”

Peter: “Ok, and what sound does a dog make when it’s mad?”

Ava: “..‘Grrrr.’”

Peter: “Ok, now put all of those together, and what do they say?”

Ava: “.......... ‘Whoo Aight Tie Grrr’......OMG!! White Tiger!”(laughs)

Peter: “See what I did there?”(laughs too)

OH my gosh, do you remember how I decided that in an alternate MCU timeline Ava Ayala is actually in Wakanda after being rescued and brought back as a little girl, but since she also possessed the White Tiger amulet, the royal family took her in and she unofficially became T’challa and Shuri’s sister and was taken under T’challa’s wing to train as the White Tiger? Because I can totally imagine Ava and Peter meeting in this version of Ava Ayala being in the MCU because T’challa appoints Shuri as head of the science and tech division of the Wakandan outreach program, and of course Shuri insists that Ava comes with her as “protection” and T’challa lets it slide because he knows those two are hard to separate, anyway - and because of course, since Tony Stark would be involved with helping the program off of its feet because T’challa asked, that means he’d get Peter Parker involved, too, because the kid would love it, and this is how Peter and Ava officially meet. Maybe Shuri and Peter have met a few times before this as Tony helped T’challa and Nakia get the American outreach program up and running, and Shuri totally wanted Peter and Ava to meet, which is the main reason she insisted that Ava come along with her to America. 

AH!

//AND THIS ONE IS JUST SELF INDULGENCE BULLSHIT.
