JESSICA / SPIDER-WOMAN.

“yeah no, everything’s great. sure,” he says, through gritted teeth, spidey senses going utterly haywire.

“I feel like we’ve known each other for a long time, haven’t we? Too long, maybe. Definitely long enough that we don’t need to lie. I know what’s you’re doing through. I got erased too, remember?”

[spiidermcm]

resurrectedstrange​:

“Cheers to being dead, then.” Stephen held his glass up and then downed what it contained. “Everyone has been asking me what it’s like to be back— now I finally get the chance to ask someone else.”

“Cheers to being dead,” Jessica repeats drolly with a small tip of her glass. She lets the sharp burn of the liquor sit on her tongue for a moment before swallowing with a nod. “I can’t say it’s bad, but it’s definitely weird. I didn’t technically die. I was severed by reality. It erased me from existence. The entire thing felt like a blink. I was there, I was fading and then I was back. What about you? You tangoed with Death, didn’t you?”

[spiidermcm]

wizardstrange​:

“You did too, last I hard.” Stephen graciously accepted the bottle and took a swig before holding it back out for Jess. “I’m sure you’re glad you weren’t there, then.”

“Severed from reality.” She corrects him. “Which, honestly, is close enough.” So far, Jess has tried to take the whole thing in stride. She’s back now, isn’t she? Gerry is fine, she’s fine. So why does she feel so off? “Glad I wasn’t in an explosion? You hit the nail on the head, Stephen. Every time I’ve been in a burning building, I’ve actively wished I wasn’t.”

“Can’t say quite yet if it’s good to be back, but I like how you think. Care to share?”

“Only because you got the same shit end of the stick as me. Here,” she extends the bottle. “Drink up.”

[spiidermcm]

webheadmorales​:

“I’m glad you weren’t there, Jess. From what I hard– it was bad. Lil’ Peter died. The mutants brought him back, but it’s still freaky.”

“God, not little Peter. Clint was there as well.” Her ex/friend had also died. “What a total clusterfuck. I’m glad you’re okay, kid.”

[spiidermcm]

frenchxie​:

“As long as you pay for it.” Frenchie shrugged. “I suppose this is where I ask if you would like to talk about it. I have been told I’m a good listener.”

Dragging her back hand across the mouth, Jess nods. “I have money, don’t worry.” It’s barely anything. The Avengers pension is slim. Pre getting yeeted from reality, Jess had been working while also being a single mom. She needs to get back at it, but she’s been spending all her time with Gerry. “Are you secretly a therapist or something? Did Carol send you?”

[spiidermcm]

spiider-dad​:

“Bad day? Bad week? Or are we celebrating something?”

“Both? Got severed from reality: bad. Got brought back: good. It’s a mixed bag.”

[spiidermcm]

wizardstrange​:

“You should save some for the rest of us, you know.”

It’s with reluctance that Jess holds the bottle out in his direction. “Only because you died. Resurrection privileges.”

[spiidermcm]

rocketngroot​:

“nuh-uh, i don’t think so. if you found that anywhere in this vicinity, it’s probably mine. don’t touch my stuff.”

“How about if I say please?”

[spiidermcm]

coulsonbot​:

“—is there a story coming or is this a drink by yourself kind of thing?”

“Do you want the story? It’s unnecessarily twisty.” 

[spiidermcm]

resurrectedstrange​:

“Don’t let me stop you. You’ve earned it as far as I’m concerned.”

“You were also dead for a bit. You deserve it as much as I do.” Not that Jess had technically died. It’s complicated. 

[spiidermcm]

bcrtonhawk​:

“I know it sounds scary.. And maybe it was. Okay yeah, it was.” Clint didn’t really know where he was going with that, but he knew that he wished Jessica had been there during the first round of Sinister’s plan. He didn’t want to have to watch her die, even if she’d be better once she was resurrected. “They’re working on figuring out who rigged the building. And I’m fine, seriously. More than fine.”

“You blew up. If that wasn’t scary, I’d want your head checked. Actually, I want your head checked anyway. Did they do any kind of post resurrection outtake assessment? They should have.” Jessica shakes her head, a sigh building in her chest. “You know I’m going to worry about you. I love your circus raised ass.”

[spiidermcm]

spiderxling​:

“I’m okay, yeah. It was terrible to be there and not be able to do anything to stop it, but we’re all back now right? Maybe it’s best to not think about it too much.”

“I’m all for not thinking. You just missed out on the big spiderverse event where some of us got wiped from reality. Second chances feel good, don’t they?”

mechanizedstark​:

“It’s the best feeling when someone is this enthusiastic about a gift— there’s more where that came from once you finish it off. I’m still trying to stay dry, but it’s a shame to see my wine collection go to waste.”

Jess stopped drinking only when the glass was empty. She wiped at her mouth. “Really? Good on you. That couldn’t have been an easy decision to make. Me? I just got back from being wiped  from reality. I’m either going to be with Gerry or hitting the bottle.” 

[spiidermcm]

spiider-dad​:

“I’m going to very honest with you— I’m not really looking to get into too much trouble right now. We’ve got a baby on the way and y’know.. I love putting on the suit, but I gotta be around for that. And for her.”

“It’s too bad trouble always seems to find us — whether we have kids or not. But it’s doable. Trust me, it is. It’s hard to be a spider totem and a parent. I won’t lie about that. It’s just also incredibly rewarding when you find the balance between both. You’ll do great.”
