“I will do anything for you” is not a promise I make lightly.

???:

Paige had sneaked away from her dorm to meet up with someone. Taking a shortcut to get there sooner, she didn’t anticipate an explosion. Or a hurtling rock. Or a woman.. pushing it out of the way?

“I’m not supposed to be here? You’re not supposed to be here! And did you just move an entire boulder with your hands?”

“this is EXACTLY where i’m supposed to be.”  she responds quickly, only turning to look back at the other for a split second - making sure that she hadn’t been scraped by any debris - before she turns back to watch for MORE flying hunks of rock. 

“yes. and you’re lucky i did, or you would’ve been KILLED.” 

another CRASH is followed by another flying rock, one which smashes against the ground a few feet away. 

“you need to come with me. what is your name?”

"Is something wrong, angel?"

diana was far too busy shaking the box against her ear, parts RATTLING inside the plastic casing. “how do they get the tiny PEOPLE into this box?”

[darknessglimpsed]

?‌??:

“Oh?” Laura raises a brow at the amusement evident in the woman’s expression, uncertain just why close proximity to a fight might excite her, but is quickly brought back to the task she’d given herself as the stranger looks over them.

“It’s okay-” She starts to argue, but the woman has already begun searching, and Laura can hardly turn down an offer of assistance so quickly… “I, um-” Returning to the piles of rubble, Laura nods and continues, “I just thought they would be worth salvaging, at least. Books are…” A great many things, none of which were easily put into words. “I wouldn’t say they’re important to me, though I do enjoy them. But if we can’t try to save these few, then… I guess there’s not much hope for if something worse were to happen.”

it doesn’t take her long to gather a large TOWER of books in her hands, before she carefully sets them down with the rest of them. diana drops to her knees, hands busy brushing dust off of the covers of the books while she attempts to make out EXACTLY what they are. 

“of COURSE. the little things are just as important as the big ones. i’ll make sure they go to a GOOD home, you have my word.” she clambers to her feet again, unaware that as she stands, a small amount of light GLINTS from her plated armor. 

she extends a hand. “diana prince. i’m glad you were HERE today.”

s‌pider-peter:

      he watched her hands with a ( thankfully concealed ) blank look , but then the light came on , and her gestures dawned on him . did wonder - woman – DIANA – truly trust him enough to stop the speeding car on his own ? well , he supposed she MUST , seeing as he DID introduce himself with all the bravado of a true super - hero . all that said and done however , she was right , the rooftop was no place for a formal introduction , especially as the driver below was so carelessly tearing through the streets of paris .

      so grinning behind his mask , peter threw his own name back at her before taking the LEAP .

      catching them must have APPEARED easier than it was , for as he swung beside them he found himself remembering : he had never actually stopped a carjacker that had already STOLEN the car . there was the time he stopped a break in – yet that car had been owned by the perpetrator in question – but nothing as much as stopping a car that was going over 50 miles per hour . so with a whisper of prayer , and a swing of his web , peter leaped from his web , and straight onto the roof of the car .

      THUNK !!

           ❝ alright , you got this , pete !! ❞      and with all the spirit he could muster – THWIP !!

      several shots from each arm in front of each tire as far as he could reach , and slowly ( but surely ) the car began to drag to a stop ; the webbing too much for the driver to speed through . as the car stopped , peter flung himself from the car’s roof , and onto a nearby street light . then , perhaps too excitedly , he waved to diana – a signal for her to join him .

eyes follow carefully as the small red DOT zips through the air, tailing the careless driver and encasing the vehicle in a thick sheet of webs. what must that feel like? she finds herself wondering, having to wipe her hand on her leg just from IMAGINING how the webs work. once she’s done pulling a slightly disgusted expression, she notices the boy beckoning her over and LEAPS herself. 

except, she lands on the pavement, the concrete cracking slightly beneath the IMPACT of her landing. then a thread of BLINDING orange is pulled from her hip and wrapped around the driver, diana tugging sharply to pull him from the vehicle and drop him onto the sidewalk beside her. 

she COULD question him here, in the middle of a busy street, holding up traffic and those trying to simply find their way around, OR - 

diana tilts her head upwards to look at her new parter in STOPPING crime, and repeats her gestures towards their capture. “would you mind? it would be better to question him somewhere QUIETER.”

“in the land of BREAKFAST and watches.” a smile creeps across her lips, head turning only slightly to look at the man that she had once been so CONFUSED by. 

“i think i’m going to LOVE it. and what about you? what are you going to do when there is no more SPYING to do?”

[darknessglimpsed]

It’s not about deserve. Maybe, maybe we don’t. But it’s not about that, it’s about what you believe. You don’t think I get it, after what I’ve seen out there? You don’t think I wish I could tell you that it was one bad guy to blame? It’s not! We’re all to blame!

spider-boy???:

      @darknessglimpsed gets a starter cause she’s my wife and i said so :///

      swing and THWIP !! swing and THWIP !! peter had managed to sneak away from his class ( well much less sneaked away , and more ‘ slipped out the window while ned was asleep ’ ) and as he swung through the streets of paris , mourning the loss of the high rises of new york city , peter kept his eyes open for ANYTHING to pass the time . hardly considering the fact france wasn’t exactly his home turf , and that FRENCH was a language unknown to him – hello language barrier – peter landed on a nearby rooftop , stretching his body to look absolutely heroic .

      not that anyone was watching . anybody except for the giant lady standing beside him ( looking so effortlessly cool ) .

      spider sense failing him , peter yelped with a jump . but then he RECOGNIZED her .

           ❝ oh my god , oh my god – you’re – !! ❞      he half yelled , mostly whispered . okay , pete . keep it cool .              ❝ wonder-woman – !! that is so cool im like your biggest fan !! SPIDER-MAN , it’s so cool that you’re here . ❞

      of course she would be , peter , this is HER new york . composing himself only marginally , peter THEN realized she was likely out for the same reason HE was . fighting crime with wonder-woman . . !!            ❝ i – uh , i guess . i mean , do want to – i’m a super-hero too . ❞

diana had been tailing these criminals for BLOCKS, now. careful to stay out of sight by taking the rooftops. and she CERTAINLY hadn’t expected to find anybody else up here. but once she gets a glimpse of the costume it becomes obvious who it is. 

she’s HEARD of spider-man, of course she has. new york far from exists in a vacuum, there are even people on the streets of paris wearing shirts with his mask on it. and now, it seems, she finally gets to see what all of the HYPE is about. 

“you can call me DIANA.” a small smile is offered in his direction. she tries to avoid divulging her alias to just ANYBODY, but those that she works with are always informed - wonder woman feels so FORMAL with those that she trusts with her life. 

“there’ll be time for introductions LATER.” she crouches down to point out a green car, weaving through traffic. “can you stop that car? your-” diana tries to contort her hands to make the web-shooting motion. “-is a lot cleaner than charging through the streets.”
