He didn't get a new book this time-choosing instead to get one from the makeshift library. As he normally does this time of day on the train, Peter's sprawled out in his webhammock, one leg hanging over the edge and reading a mystery novel that's actually pretty decent thus far. He's about half way through it, his laptop is somewhere near by playing this song. It's probably better if no one asks why.

He's not paying too close attention to the lyrics but he does seem to be mouthing a few of the words as his foot bounces and he turns the page. Man, he really wishes he could get some head phones. He hears someone approach and sits up in his hammock, to see who it is.

"Thanks, I try." Peter just leans back in the web a bit more and then grabs his laptop from where he's got it hanging nearby and opens it up-there's a crack in the screen up in one corner and there's a few pieces of duct tape on the outer shell and a few stickers-but never mind those.

"Wanna see something cool?" He offers, pulling up his recorded videos and quickly hunting down a specific one.

She looks at the laptop, she's seen it before obviously. But she's still fascinated by it. It looks a bit more... broken than the one mister Stark has but it clearly still works.

She nodded, she always was happy to see cool things. Even if they were inevitably confusing. She moved so she was sat closer to him and could see the screen as the video started.

A film by Peter Parker. He had made a film? A movie? They were two words for the same thing.

There was a big ball in some trees. And things going past glass very fast. When her eyes focused enough she recognised them as cars. She had seen them on the snow world. But she had seen no giant balls in trees before. New York was where he lived and Queen? There was a queen?

Then the image changed and it was the back of a head, there were more cars. They were in a car? And it was Happy. She recognised the voice. He was telling Peter he couldn't show the video to anyone. Did that mean Peter was breaking the rules right now? Was he going to get grounded again? She glanced at him, but the video shifted again and caught her attention.

They were moving towards a... What was that? Transport of some kind. With wings. Probably flew. A space craft? Peter was rambling about a bathroom and then they were inside the transport that had no pilot but apparently that was a good thing?

It looks very fancy. Apparently it was a private plane and it was Peter's first time on a plane. Was this from a long time ago? He didn't look too much younger but he had said he had been in space so maybe he had made this before that.

He sounded nervous. Happy didn't seem... well happy with him. But he dealt with it mostly through ignoring him. He might be basically a fancy weird-world version of Taiwin but he had a lot less of a temper. Especially when Peter snuck up on him. She would never have gotten away with that. She would never have dared.

Then the scenes changed quickly, people and buildings and horses on rooftops and shaking and Peter still talking about not knowing why he was in Berlin and that Captain America had gone crazy. She knew Captain America, Peter had spoken about him before. Wasn't he a hero of light from his world? How had he gone crazy.

Then he was in his spider clothes, except different. And wrong. Apparently. More talking. More Happy being far more patient than any handler she had ever known. Not even the most pampered noble children she had seen on her missions would get away with being so... Like Peter. There weren't even words for what he was. She sighed.

But he found the case and a note and his suit. More like his real suit now. He sounded impressed. She guessed T.S was Tony Stark. He made the suit. She already knew that so it didn't take much to figure out.

She rolled her eyes when Peter asked if it was for him. Happy wasn't a spider person. There was no one else in the room. Of course mister Stark would want him to have the best things for the mission. If Tony was giving him the suit was this his first mission for him. She would hope this was his first mission. He sounds too stupid for it not to be.

But then again... She glanced at Peter again.

Oh different view. Now some people too far to see but Peter gives them names Captain America, Black Widow, Iron Man. The last is mister Stark. She knows that as well.

Then he jumped and there was lots of movement and then... Wait he was filming in the middle of fighting? Was that allowed? Was that normal in his world?

And why was there a giant man?

Peter talking very fast, very excited and then Happy telling him to be quiet. Then mister Stark. Asking about the video. Peter sounding almost well behaved and respectful for a moment. They were making a video for May? Why did it matter what she was wearing? She got the feeling Tony had said something stupid from Peter's face and Tony's laugh.

Then they started again and Peter looked very nervous as Tony spoke. They were lying. To his aunt. So this was long ago, before she knew he was spider man. They were talking about an internship.

Then there was a loud noise and shouting from Happy and then mister Stark started saying about how Happy wanted to be asset manager. So this was a long time ago because he was asset manager now. Peter had told her that.

Happy wasn't happy about Mister Stark saying it, but he sounded sad rather than angry. In fact it seemed that he wasn't angry ever, just a bit disgruntled always. The image shook again and Happy grumpily went to get the case.

Peter sounded so amazed at getting to keep his suit. She smiled a little bit, it was a long time ago she thought. He seemed nervous around Tony in a way he wasn't here and he was clearly still trying to prove himself.

Mister Stark was telling him to not stress Happy out. Peter sounded very serious as he answered yes. So serious in face that the image showed the roof of the car and then the video stopped altogether, the screen going dark.

She glanced at Peter. "That did be being your first mission, yes?"

Peter watches her expressions every so often to see what she thought of the Avengers in action. Sorta. Cam quality wasn't great-he'll be the first to admit that but it's hard to record and fight at the same time.

"Yeah, my first mission with the Avengers. It was awesome-there are other videos I took too-apparently I rescued the chancellor of Germany? That was cool. Happy was not happy with me but like, he rarely is to be honest. but we have a kind of understanding-I think. At least now we do-I'm pretty sure he hated me at first. And then this whole thing happened and Mr Stark got mad and took my suit-and uh-it's kinda a long story but if you want, I can tell you all about the Vulture?"

[knifewithnoname]

She didn't think Happy had hated him. Not in that video. He had been far too gentle. Let him get away with far too much. They were soft on him, she had already known that. It was why he was so badly trained.

She lay back in the hammock, "All your stories do be being long, Peter." She pointed out. But she was happy to listen. She knew he would talk forever if she let him but she had nothing better to do right now.

She could listen to him talking about fighting a vulture.
