happy pride month

[pxper-cranes]

Just finished watching Across the Spiderverse (the whole thing was a work of art, obviously) but it got me thinking about spidersonas again. It was a totally sick trend and I’m hella hoping it comes back after being revitalised by this film, but some stuff in the movie got me thinking.

Each universe has everyone in it, right? A spider-man, obviously, but all of their villains too. Vulture, Doc Ock, even theoretically Prowler and Spot too.

So, something cool would be an investigation into that. Have a spidersona already? What about a Spotsona? A Prowlersona? Doc Ocksona??? Come on please i want more spider-verse content and ill beckon it from the tumblr depths myself if I have to.

Me and my aroace friend who only reads gen fic leaving the theatre both fully shipping Miles with an evil version of himself from a parallel universe.

No one ever talks about this game so again dumping about it but it’s so interesting how Miles in his solo game goes against basically most of Peter’s “Spider-Man Rules” and benefits greatly from it. Miles gets support from his friends, his family, and sympathy from “antagonists” because he’s open and vulnerable whereas Peter has constructed such a harsh divide between “Spider-Man” and “Peter” it routinely ends up with him alone, no allies, no family. With Venom appearing in the second game I wonder how Peter’s resentment and alienation due to past mistakes and mistrustfulness will fuel his anger when faced with another impossible villain.

now when we technically have two miles (one spiderman and one prowler) i think it would be pretty logical if the spiderman one ended up with gwen and the prowler one with hobie. (and our dearest boy pav can have gayatri, she seems sweet + he loves her).

what do we think about that?

COMFORT

Okay so this is just a ramble (not yandere this time) that I don't expect a lot of people to see, because quite frankly, this is mainly for comfort, cuz chronic pain hates me I don't know why, but everyone in the across the spiderverse/into the spiderverse just gives me sibling and best friend vibes. Color coded to separate characters lol, i know they don't really match.

Especially earth 42-Miles, I do not know, so do not ask me why, like remember Earth 1610 Miles trying to tell the truth and mama Rio thinking it was just cosplay or some shit. You cannot tell me that earth 42-Miles wouldn't be into games and cartoons.

He would be a great friend and sibling, especially if you have chronic pain or an illness.

Like he seems so cold and apathetic and shit, but I think that with people he's close with he would do a full 160... Like he would do comfort things with you and like it would be so adorable and fluffy. Besides that he seems like the guy to try and get you to do things out of your comfort zone to help you get distracted or something.

Now earth 1610 Miles, I feel like he would be determined to be the best spiderman ever and to never get injured because you get so stressed whenever he gets injured, like. Stress can make pain worse, so----- this guy hides injuries from you. But you get into trouble? I just know that he'll be like that sibling type of shit of scolding you (I have been scolded before due to reckless behavior because I wanted to be a normal kid).

Also makes art with you and tries to get you to use art as a healthy coping mechanism.

Also Hobie, if your health issues got worse due to a doctor being shitty, I just feel like he will make jokes about threatening the doctor and shit, I also feel like this guy will make sure you don't do stupid shit alone.

Because he wouldn't mind you doing stupid shit, but like don't do it alone, thank you.

now Miguel, we all know about how he replaced a different version of him, this guy will be a helicopter parent, not even a sibling type of guy. Be prepared to never do anything remotely dangerous again.

Miguel is basically my parents when I was younger in a nutshell.

Why do I also feel like Miguel would scold/yell (at) you for hours if you forget your meds ect.

Change my mind, I'll cry.

Nah I'm joking.

welcome to: I never post but I kinda want to sum up how I feel about (616) Peter Parker.

so, like. I've tried to do this many times and always end up coming short of fully explaining myself because I have ✨𝓂𝒶𝓃𝓎 𝒻𝑒𝑒𝓁𝒾𝓃𝑔𝓈.✨

note: I have done an ass ton of research over my couple years of loving Spidey, but that does not mean I know everything. if something sounds wrong, it might be! I'm just a 17 year old idiot who got attached to an absolute mess of human being.

note #2: I am trying not to make this all about how much I dislike MCU Peter, but it will come up from time to time so just be aware of that.

first and foremost, I want to talk about comics as a whole. a lot of choices around characters have less to do with what a character would actually do and more what a writer wants or general comic/societal culture at the time. every character will be different depending on the writer and you're gonna make your own interpretation of a character from what you like. that doesn't mean certain things can't be out of character, just that a comic character can vary quite a bit depending on the person. that's part of the fun of comics tbh.

what I'm trying to say is that if my character analysis doesn't feel like it's what you read, it very well might not be and that's okay. Peter is a character that's been around since the 60's. he's developed over time and will continue to as time goes on. like, for instance, how he's changed from a high school kid trying to get by to a mid-to late twenties mentor for Miles (1610) and Gwen (65).

alright onto more interesting points. and actually a kinda heavily debated topic. whether Peter is a naturally good person or not. mainly this is just about his origin and how he really just straight did not care. honestly, part of the reason I really like how the comics did his origin is that he's not an self-absorbed prick. (even though it would be reasonable if he was considering he was 15.) he's more,,, jaded.

Peter was a social outcast his whole life. he didn't make any sort of friend until Freshman year. he's also super traumatized. his parents' death is kinda over-looked a lot, but it was shown that it really set in action his fear about everyone around him dying that has only gotten worse from, well, just that happening. he's shown in younger years to help people, and even in Freshman year he puts his safety on the line to make sure his bullies don't get stabbed by his friend, but he also kinda just,,, doesn't care.

personally, I really like characters that are inherently good people, but are limited by trauma making them apathetic. (ahem me with a male P3 protag icon.) not all trauma responses are loud or easy to fix. it's totally reasonable for Peter to close himself off from a world that has only been cruel to him, but the fact that moves past this? yes, it took a tragedy, but sometimes you need something big happening to realize.

Peter is inherently a good person, but he's also,,, short-sighted at times. he can royally fuck up because he was trying to do the right thing and just really missed the mark. but I honestly thinks this makes him more likable. intent doesn't change the affect, but if you're a vigilante, you're gonna fuck up from time to time. he's always been a hero grounded in reality and I don't think that makes him any less of a good person.

speaking of trauma, the fact that he hated working with other heroes for the longest time is mwah chef's kiss. mans did not make a real friend until college so, like, of course he's gonna have problems trusting other heroes. (especially since most heroes have tried to kill him but that's neither here nor there.)

this is one of the times I will be ragging on MCU Peter so skip to the next paragraph if you don't want that. there are many reasons not to like MCU Peter wanting to be an Avenger so goddamn bad, but one of the ones that irk me so much is the fact that it just gets rid of so much character development. 616 Peter had to learn how to trust heroes, to trust people, with something as serious as his life after being tormented by basically everyone that wasn't his caretakers. he now works with heroes just fine but like??? it's been a long ass time you can't just skip all that.

anyway, moving on. another thing I just fucking love about 616 Peter is how he is just a ball of fucking rage. this is basically never explored outside of 616 but it is genuinely one of my favorite parts of the comics. this man has been put through so many things and he is just so. done. like the canonical reason why him having Venom is a bad idea is because Venom specifically will go feral when their host is pissed and Peter is, to state again, a ball of rage.

like, yes, sometimes he doesn't kill because ✨moral compass✨ but more recently a lot of the times he hasn't is because The Giant Web That Holds The Entire Multiverse Together Said No.™️ I could make a whole post about how much I adore Spider-Totem stuff, and I just might, but my point is Peter is just done with shit and life in general and I love it.

this is so rambly and not gonna go over everything I want it to, but I'm gonna get powering on until I have to go to bed.

I also genuinely love how even though they will never come out and say Peter is any sort of queer of way, he is so queer-coded. his relationship with many of his male friends is fruity as FUCK and Peter straight wore a crop top with the word animal across it and booty shorts. (if you've never seen it, let me treat you.)

this hasn't even covered half of what I know I want to cover so let me speedrun some points before I literally pass out.

Peter "I'm partial to clones" Parker and his relationship with Kaine and Ben is my favorite relationship dynamic (/p) in all of 616. the fact that they are just absolute bastards to each other but only they are allowed to be. no one else can touch the others.

Peter's closest hero friendships being Daredevil, Wolverine, Johnny Storm (I can't remember his hero name right now I think I'm officially losing it,) and Deadpool is so fucking good. he just loves someone that he can argue with and that is also my ideal friendship. just absolutely besties and fuck with each other but will absolutely kill for each other.

I love Peter being a teacher and/or mentor SO MUCH. please I need more of it, no one appreciates how good of a teacher he is and it's mean. :(

his guilt. man as someone with an awful guilt complex I just,, adore his so much. the way that every other character is like "woah dude chill" is just so fucking funny to me as he mentally just shuts down because oh god how dare he not be perfect.

unrelated but the fact that Miles can tell the difference between how Peter and Ben talk is literally one of my favorite facts. like that says two things.

Miles knows Peter so well that he knows the way he talks and

Peter and Ben have become such different people that they talk with different speech patterns and/or in different tones of voice.

personally, I headcanon that Ben rambles more and talks in a higher register but kyldktdoy this is off topic- (I should make a Ben post too.)

okay, I'm delirious, the point is: Peter is a really interesting and good character and I love him so much. I personally resonate a lot with how he handles trauma and I think it's well done. but stldykd that's just me.

I'll add on later because I know I have more to say.
