This week has been a big one for Silk! Her cameo in Spider-Man/Deadpool and the announcement of Agents of Atlas have been a blessing and I couldn’t be happier. I can’t wait to see her back in the comics doing her thing. 📸: @cospi.photos #silk #silksquad #marvelsilk #silkmarvel #agentsofatlas #protectors #spidermandeadpool #cosplay #marvel #cindymoon #silkcosplay #spiderwomen https://www.instagram.com/p/Bt6bp2GjdWA/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=17hy9ob508ufc

silkcat reunion agnst edition por favor for fictober

when the world burned, we...

Silk is an easy read. She always has been. It's the eyebrows, mainly, jumping around and revealing her every reaction. Her mask does little to hide the most expressive part of her face. Felicia once made a game of it, pushing the limits of what kind of reaction she could elicit from the hero.

Except it's not until they're finally face to face after their last dumpster fire encounter when Felicia realizes with a start that Silk's face is completely unreadable. She's a seasoned hero now, one who manages to hold onto her reactions. Felicia almost mourns the loss, wonders what happened in the time they've been apart, and promptly stops herself from thinking down that route.

"Black Cat." Silk's voice cuts through the roaring wind and Felicia's grip on her catch of jewels tightens. "Hi. Uh... good to see you."

God. Felicia wishes she could wipe the instinctive pull to roll her eyes from her brain. It takes considerable restraint to not huff.

"Wish I could say the same." She doesn't spit the words out. She should, but she doesn't. Instead the words come out cold, fiery hot underneath a layer of frost.

What happens next happens quickly. Silk rushes forward, her hands already curling into fists. Felicia dodges and swipes in retaliation, hugging her briefcase of diamonds close to her chest. Their blows are messages and exchanges, a language long forgotten.

She's fast, almost as fast as her. Speed is supposed to be Felicia's thing. A long time ago she didn't mind sharing. Now she does.

Her blood sings. It's been so long since they've been this close. Her body doesn't seem to care if they're fighting; she can't help but relish their closeness all the same. Analyze everything. Silk's still aggressively on the offensive, still relying on pure strength instead of her webs. Yet she's more refined: more cautious with her punches, more smart with her attacks. Definitely not a rookie anymore.

Felicia wishes she was there to see the change from try-hard amateur to well-established hero. She's kept up with the news, of course, has seen Silk's face occasionally light up the morning broadcast more than once, but that's nowhere close to witnessing growth in action.

And maybe the term "silk superhero" is a constant in her search engines. And maybe she follows that stupid @SilkSightings account or whatever (it's actually @SilkSquad but she'll never admit to knowing). Maybe she couldn't help but keep tabs on the hero when all she wanted to do was burn the memories alight. That still doesn't mean anything.

(In the back of her mind, a small voice reminds her that she never did that for Peter. But Peter was never the spider with heart-wrenchingly expressive eyebrows and easily obtained smiles and sharp, sarcastic barbs that were more rooted in anger than anything else. Understandable anger too, an anger that Felicia noticed far before that night in the elevator.)

They don't talk much past grunts. Strange, given how talkative they've been known to be, but not so strange given their history. All the same, Felicia can hear the words from their last encounter. You're not bad. Not all bad.

She wonders if Silk kept the same tabs on her.

"Heard you went to Korea," Silk finally breaks the silence, stepping backwards to avoid a kick. "How was the trip?"

There's a hidden meaning there -- there has to be -- but Felicia can't be bothered to figure it out. Or maybe she doesn't want to think too hard about what it means that Silk knows. "It was just a stopover."

"Sounded like a very eventful one, according to Luna Snow." Silk says carefully. Well, as carefully as she can as Felicia bears down on her.

The name registers like a stone. Felicia knows about the Agents of Atlas, has seen the photos of Silk and the K-Pop superstar hanging out. She also knows the name Silk didn't mention: White Fox. Someone who didn't show up in the official photos for secrecy reasons, but a key figure of the team all the same.

"Wouldn't you like to know."

"I do know." Silk manages to pry herself away and feints to the left. "I just told you."

Felicia finds herself rolling her eyes like they're some type of friends. She starts cornering Silk to the edge in response to that reaction in herself.

As hard as Silk fights, Felicia still has been in the fighting business longer. She drops the briefcase to lunge and clasp Silk's suit, right at the chest. The momentum pushes Silk over the edge until the only thing keeping her afloat is Felicia's grip. She dangles Silk over the edge, the hero's feet barely toeing the floor.

"Too bad spiders don't land on their feet," Felicia purrs and ignores the choked feeling in her chest.

"But we can catch ourselves when we fall." Silk's eyes are incredibly brown. Softer than they should be. "I don't think you can say the same."

What's the difference between landing and catching? Felicia wants to roar, ask, cry. She knows already. At least when you catch yourself, you don't lose everything. Sirens rolling across the city in the dead of night; Silk's limp form in the dumpsters below; her stolen tech stolen back. No, not everything.

"Pick yourself up alright then?" Felicia snarls. "Seeing as you must've gotten a raise at SHIELD."

Silk just closes her eyes and turns her head to the side.

"Didn't think you did, but I'm surprised. Straight out of the bunker and into being wrapped around the government's pinky finger. What did they say to make you stay?" Her voice teeters to a growl. What did they offer that I couldn't give?

"I--" For the first time, Felicia can see hints of the rookie. The unbalanced vigilante just trying to prove herself, playing catch up, tired of being treated like a kid. Silk's long, black hair whips around with the gusts of wind; sunbeams land directly on her face, eyelashes flutter. She's never been more radiant. She's never been more heartbreaking.

"Goes to show how I never should've trusted you." A whisper now. "Those nights never meant anything, did they."

"You don't-- you don't get to say that," she chokes out and she means it too. It's in that pained expression, full of hurt, full of disappointment. The unspoken message is clear: not after what you did.

But wasn't it Silk that betrayed her?

Felicia lets out a low chuckle that hinges on a growl. She doesn't say anything, the way her face tightens up says enough.

Wind buffets around them, the sounds of the city are almost drowned out being so high. Her grip on Silk's suit loosens minutely before she lets go altogether.

Silk drops like a stone.

And then she's back, splaying out her hands and white strands shooting out of her two fingertips and pulling. She swings around, using the momentum to land behind Felicia, and Felicia doesn't have to turn to know that she's in a familiar crouch.

"Felicia." The sound is swallowed up -- by the rushing wind or her thrumming heart she doesn't know. "Felicia."

Felicia stiffens. The briefcase is right next to her right foot. She should just grab and book it. This is the window to escape, probably the best opportunity she'll have. Silk doesn't know the streets like Felicia does.

"You should go Silk, before we do something we both regret," she warns, and she means it too. One way or another, she's going to claw that pretty face up. The wind steals her words but she knows Silk hears her with those enhanced senses.

"What's one more regret to add to the list?" Silk's voice moves closer. She actually sounds... sad. "Seems like we lost track a while ago."

Felicia has many regrets she doesn't bother thinking of now. And she means to say that, until she realizes that the regrets over Silk are the only ones that piled up the way they have. Piling up until the regrets she was running from became synonymous with running from Silk.

She could still run.

Instead, she turns. Silk's guarded expression doesn't falter, but Felicia sees the relief in her eyes, the downturn of her brows. There's the slightest loosen of her jaw, but Felicia can't tell if that's the wind or not.

"I'm sorry, okay?" The phrase stumbles out, Silk looks up at the clouds before studying the floor beneath them. "I'm... just, sorry."

Felicia hums noncommittally and hoists up her briefcase full of diamonds. She has the upper hand now and they both know it. "Sorry doesn't reverse things, does it?"

Silk's voice is resigned. "You know I'm still going to have to stop you from stealing those diamonds, right?"

And maybe Felicia craves the chase, the thrill of it all. But she's been chased by so many, the thought of Silk chasing her doesn't spark much excitement. Still, appearances are appearances. "And?"

Silk's forehead wrinkles and Felicia can tell that her face has scrunched up below the mask too. "Can't you just give it back and we can talk over -- I don't know -- coffee?"

There isn't anything she wants to do more. But Felicia, by nature, is contrary. "I'm afraid not." Instead, she shrugs and looks nonchalantly over her shoulder at the New York City skyline like she's got all the time in the world. "I got an appointment to make."

And she jumps off, leaving Silk and all the conflicts that come between them behind.
