“hey, mantis!” peter exclaimed as he knocked on the door frame of her room, a small grin on his face. it may not have been long since they’d gotten back, but peter often found himself unable to stay in one place for long. he’d already been out on patrol once earlier, then he’d stopped by the avengers compound, and now he was back at the sanctum - home, he supposed he should call it now.
“you remember my dog, sandwich, right?” he asks, gesturing to the dog who poked his head in the doorway at the mention of his name. “i’ve been feeling like going on a walk since i got back, and i should probably take sandwich on one - ‘cause if he goes to the bathroom in the sanctum i’m sure stephen will kill me - and i was wondering if you’d wanna come with me? i know it’s kinda soon after... everything...” he trailed off, his eyes falling to the ground for a second.
“i could show you around new york now if you’d like? part two... without getting kidnapped this time. i’ll have my webshooters just in case. i’ll keep us safe.” he offers her a wide smile. “and sandwich can be a really good guard dog if he needs to be. what do you say?”
