“ i just want/wanted to help. ” (peter & morgan) idk if ur still accepting but this could take place after Morgan heals after she got shot and maybe there’s still some guilt and tension
@tranquileds // misc sentence starters
Peter KNOWS she was only trying to help. He knows it was an accident, knows he won’t ever let it happen again. But he still can’t help the GUILT that festers inside him every time he thinks about it. It was far from Morgan’s fault-- he’s the one who should have saved her. He’s been a hero for longer, and he DID help get her to the hospital, did stay with her and make sure she was okay, she’s ALIVE, but she shouldn’t have gotten shot in the first place with Peter there. He’s supposed to PROTECT the people close to him-- what kind of superhero is he if he ISN’T able to do that?
“I...I know-” He lifts his head the moment he hears her voice, not wanting her to feel guilty about any of this. She’s been healing, things have been getting better, but there’s still TENSION in the air, and Peter wishes he could just forget about this. But he can’t. “It’s not your fault, Morgan, none of it-- none of it’s on you. And-- and you’re okay, it’s fine.”
“If anything...I should’ve helped you, I should’ve stopped it from happening. But I didn’t, and-- and you got hurt, and it was on me. But it’s...okay...you don’t have to feel bad about this.”
