| | | ❛ do you ever stop talking ?
" well, yeah. a girl’s gotta sleep at some point, " she says from somewhere high up in the rafters, cloaked by the pervasive darkness that seems to loom over this place like a dense fog. she’s silent as she crawls across the rotting wooden beams, letting the mild buzzing sensation at the base of her skull guide her carefully around the creaking spots.
she contemplates dropping down from the ceiling, maybe even lowering herself down behind him on a web-line as quietly as her namesake. she can't help it, she's got a flair for the dramatic. lucky for him, she doesn’t really wanna deal with the possibility of a gun in her face right now, so she stays put. watching, waiting. " plus, it’s a great distraction technique. isn’t this fun ? "

| | | ❛ mayday ! do you wanna see my goat ? her name's disco.
" uh, yeah ? duh ! " of course she wants to see a goat. who doesn’t wanna see a goat ? " where did you get a goat ? is it one of those little jumpy ones ? "
minute quirk of a brow as she places the pen down on her desk, making sure it was in line with the others. neatly in a row. meticulous, she used to hate that kind of behaviour but since joining the college faculty she has found herself to be increasingly nit-picky about the smallest of things.
sharp inhale as she looks up glancing towards the younger woman " miss parker, basketball isn't a good enough excuse to be late to my class for a second time this semester."
she hates when they do that. yeah, she’s late. she knows it. everyone else knows it. so what’s the point of calling her out ? to be petty ? to embarrass her ? she’s long grown passed being humiliated over this crap, but it’s still annoying.
whatever. whatever ! she packs up that bad energy and digs out her usual sunny disposition, bites back what she wants to say ( get over it ! ) and offers a smile instead. she can probably make it look more authentic and maybe a little apologetic, BUT SHE DOESN'T.
" sorry, the kids needed my help to clean up, " she drops her crossbody bag on her desk as she slides into her seat, " it will probably happen again, just for the record. "
i wanted to write up this little interaction guide for mayday since she’s not super well-known and i have some divergences from canon that are important to my portrayal. this also serves as a little quick info sheet to make interaction easier and to have a place to detail things that are or are not publicly known about may and spider-girl.
PLEASE NOTE THIS GUIDE IS FOR MY PRIMARY CANON: EARTH-982 ! this verse is set post-canon of the spectacular spider-girl. for reference for those who may be unaware, earth-982 ( marvel comics 2 ) is generally considered to be the future of or a possible future of earth-616. mc2 is quite dated at this point, but i have and will continue to world-build and modernize it for my blog's canon.
moving on though ! there are a few arcs within this verse to cover other points in time and those will be detailed in another post and linked here below. there is a separate guide coming for my secondary main canon (EARTH-616) and there will be another one for crossovers and / or other genres for those interested ! my primary canon is not restricted though, so if any interactions with non-comic / non-superhero based muses happen to work in this verse, i may still use it unless plotted otherwise.
𐔌 ! 𐦯 𝗪𝗛𝗢 𝗜𝗦 𝗠𝗔𝗬 𝗣𝗔𝗥𝗞𝗘𝗥 ?
may "mayday" parker is the daughter of peter parker and mary jane watson in a future where one more day never happened / was reversed. she is twenty - one years old and has been suiting up as the amazing spider - girl off and on since she was sixteen. [ view verse arcs here. ]
˗ˏˋ 🕸 ˎˊ˗ 𝗖𝗔𝗡𝗢𝗡 𝗗𝗜𝗩𝗘𝗥𝗚𝗘𝗡𝗖𝗘𝗦 : very important !
may is a mutant, not a human mutate as she is in canon. she inherited her father's powers which have interfaced in a unique way with her x - gene to further evolve her abilities.
may is a lesbian. she was closeted through most of high school and was a victim of comphet. she is now out, proud and coming into her identity as a young butch lesbian.
may is a member of the young x - men, a team of younger generation x - men led by rachel summers ( @celestiallegacy ). however, she does still operate on a solo basis and is also a reserve member of a - next.
she was personally trained by her father, peter, in many aspects regarding her powers and was also allowed to train at the xavier institute for mutant education and outreach with the young x - men prior to officially joining them.
˗ˏˋ 🕸 ˎˊ˗ 𝗦𝗣𝗜𝗗𝗘𝗥-𝗚𝗜𝗥𝗟 : what your muse can know !
her identity is a secret and meticulously protected. it should be noted that spider-man's identity is also not publicly known.
no one outside of a select few know that spider-girl is the daughter of spider-man. the majority of public assumption is that she is a copycat or a hero inspired by the original spider-man.
she live streams fairly often on social media and allows people to book cameos from her.
she is a member of the x-men. while actually one of the young x-men, the team distinction is not necessarily important or widespread knowledge to the public or other hero teams outside of the x-men.
her relationship with the costumed hero x-man ( @celestiallegacy ) is known or at least assumed, as they are constantly seen together and x-man frequently shows up on her socials and streams.
˗ˏˋ 🕸 ˎˊ˗ 𝗠𝗔𝗬𝗗𝗔𝗬 : what your muse can know !
she is the daughter of peter parker and international celebrity mary jane watson. she was never in the public eye as a child, but that has since changed in the last 4-5 years due to her usage of social media.
she was the star player on the midtown girls varsity basketball team.
she coaches youth basketball at the kurt wagner sports and recreation center, a mutant-inclusive rec center in nyc.
she volunteers at the st. andrews women's shelter and has done so since she was in high school.
she lives in an on-campus apartment at empire state university with rachel summers.
her birthday is on halloween, and there is always a huge party for it hosted by mary jane.
may is not out as a mutant. as a general rule, only x-men, peter parker and mary jane will know that may is a mutant and that she is also spidey. that said, if there is another reason your muse might know this information and we haven't already established that, just dm me and we can talk about it !
˗ˏˋ 🕸 ˎˊ˗ 𝗜𝗡𝗧𝗘𝗥𝗔𝗖𝗧𝗜𝗢𝗡 : things to note !
may and spidey are both generally easy to interact with ! they are both very social, approachable and often found in public places.
the lists below are not exhaustive, just some ideas / launching points !

occasionally found at her mom's fashion shows or the premiere of her movies.
˗ˏˋ ★ .˚ 𝗪𝗛𝗘𝗥𝗘 𝗧𝗢 𝗙𝗜𝗡𝗗 𝗦𝗣𝗜𝗗𝗘𝗬 !
out on patrol in the city, fighting someone, saving someone.

| | | ❛ well . . . i hope you at least gave as good as you got.
safe here in his presence, may sighs heavily as she peels her mask off, careful not to cut herself on the broken lens of the right eye. she slams it a little too hard against the table and watches, dead-eyed and tight-lipped as another piece of the lens chips off and goes flying with a distinct little chnk. ugggh ! she’s so sick of repairing these stupid things !
" oh, totally, " she turns to him and puffs a heavy breath from the corner of her mouth to blow her bangs out of her eyes. " you think i’m gonna let a bunch of bank robbers with suspiciously advanced weaponry beat me ? puh-lease ! "

hope as a defense mechanism. as a coping strategy. as a way to see there is still a future to fight for and then to keep fighting for it. hope as in it being the thing you hold on to so it can save you. hoping so I won’t feel defeated by cruelty in the world, keeping hope alive because others desperately want us to lose it.
may understands now that rachel's audacity is her own fault. her ability to enforce the rules of this little engagement has been lacking. like, terribly lacking. she’s caving too soon or letting her off the hook because rachel hits her with a pout or that little lip - bite - and - smirk combo that makes her knees feel as flimsy as her backbone. she wishes she could say this is a new development and she hasn’t always been like this for her, but alas ⸺⸺ may is down bad for the devious schemes of a redheaded vixen who really hates to pass a class.
BUT NOT TODAY ! this time, she’s putting her foot down. midterms are no joke and she is not about to let her seduce her way out of studying for them.
" aht - aht ! " she slaps her finger pointer stick on the coffee table to draw rachel’s attention back to the textbook and study guide, " i said when you get the answer right. you only got that one half right. it’s all or nothing, red. "
for all the confidence she started with, the pout rachel offers as a silent protest still almost works. almost.
but the only thing more tempting than that stupidly kissable face right now is the prospect of rachel passing her class with flying colors. so may shakes her head to rattle loose the temptation and taps the study guide, " try again and if you get the rest of the page right, we can take a break. a quick one. on the couch. "
OKAY, SO MAYBE IT STILL KINDA WORKED. but at least she’s still putting in some work first ! baby steps, right ?
