Let’s do things differently this time. Like, so differently.
You think you know my story. You don’t. I thought I knew how it was supposed to go, I tried to live how people told me I was meant to, but I was wrong. So fucking wrong.
I didn’t want to hurt him, but I did anyway. I didn't want to hurt Peter, I didn't want to hurt anyone. I seem to be doing a lot of that lately.
In this line of work, you're always running. But you can’t outrun a memory, and trust me, I have a lot of bad ones.
But if I've learned anything from my time with him, it's that you can't stop trying. People like us, we don't get to stop running. We don't get to stop fighting. Because the whole damn world thinks it can write our story.
Well, here's some breaking news for you. I'm done playing your games. So how about you pass the word along to Miguel for me. Spit it in his goddamn face.

A message from the mod:
This is a Gwen Stacy themed roleplay blog! Feel free to ask her any questions about her or her world, or what she's up to now. This blog will follow a unique path after the Spiderverse movies, so I hope you have fun trying to explore it through her. In this version, Gwen is headcannoned as trans (yes, I know it was actually Peter who was trans, but I like it) and she's sapphic because I prefer writing sapps. If you like this blog, my other RP blog is @wuzwrngwthmypants , a Jinx Arcane blog! It admittedly has a lot more put into it, at least so far. Just remember, girlie is 17-19 in this AU (Mod is 20), so slightly spicy questions are fine, but if you're too creepy she's going to bitchslap you into next week and tie you onto a building. So maybe don't do that... Leave the creeping around to the spiders.

Current Lore found through asks (Check back for updates!!):
-She's still looking for Miles, mainly on solo missions. It's been at least a year. She still visits his old dimension when she can.
-She's dropped out of school and quit her retail job, but it's not clear yet if she's unemployed or not.
-Her dad doesn't seem to have entirely approved of the path she's taking.
-As she got older, she developed the mutation Spider Bite, a kind of power that causes her to produce venom with different potencies and effects depending on her mental state. It has to be administered orally via fangs. She's made it clear that she doesn't like using it, and it drains her energy.
