Swinging back on this au after agesssssss-Story by me but art by @phinamina and they also helped me figure out the set Spidersona designs for the Dead Sea Siblings aka the ones it centers!
The title's 'Dead Seapunk Siblings'(thought up by Phina!)and here's the summary to it:
Spiderwoman Hazel,Spiderman Nico and Spiderpunk Percy
Hazel's the first to get bitten,Nico's the second and Percy's the third but they all happen in close timeframes.Hazel absentmindedly wandered into the woods while focused on her current painting project she was hyperfocusing on and didn't notice how near to the webbing on the tree she was leaning the (radioactive) spider who made it was,Nico was dealing with his bullies after school and grabbed a (radioactive!) spider he saw nearby and threw it on one of them as self-defense straight after it bit him and Percy cought hers while with her group of solarpunk friends as they were disposing of radioactive waste(and yes,that was what caused her spider to mutate in the first place)
Hazel's fifteen,Nico's seventeen and Percy's twenty two and their Uncle Ben equivalent was Sally so she passed away years ago and that left Percy needing to parentify herself so she could look after her baby cousins who'd started living at La Residencia Jackson ages ago due to their own moms' passings.I don't feel right having Sally die a violent or gruesome death so she passed away from a stress stroke Gabe was at fault for and so was her being much older than she is in the books to match her children.Percy brought Gabe's own death onto him in a mixture of revenge for her and not wanting her and Nico and Hazel to be forced to live with him as their only adult guardian and she did it in a moment of negative emotional unrestraintment by sneaking a toaster into the bathtub while he was in it.Nico and Hazel figured out she did it fairly quickly but didn't tell her because they understood she felt like a monster over it and ironically,she kept it from them because she was scared they'd genuinely view her as one too if they found out(they found it admirable and one of the most major moment's she proved herself as the best non-biological eldest sibling and parent anyone could ever ask for)
Marie died peacefully in her sleep from old age and permanent health problems and Maria contracted lung cancer from years of smoking + divorced Hades shortly after Nico's birth and he got custody of Bianca but Persephone managed to have her Kill Bill era and so Bia lives happily and fatherlessly with her single plant mom and ends up meeting the DSS later on in the story and Tyson pops into the picture as well once Poseidon comes in
It took Hazel exactly twenty four hours to decide to become a superhero(and she had it timed using an hourglass she has in her room to see how long it'd take her to succumb to the urges to)and it took her very little time become a component one compared to most fresh teen heroes.She made speedrun quips a couple of times during her origin storyline ofc
Nico on the other hand felt compelled at possibilities and opportunities of heroism but hesitant and unsure he could pull it off effectively,especially seeing as Spiderwoman(unknown yet to him her true identity)seemingly had the entire city covered already but a pep talk from her sprung him towards the leap of faith he needed to take and turn his tide and it was in the aftermath minutes of it it clicked for him who it was under her mask.He snuck up on Hazel as they both made it home both physically and with a rethorical question alerting her he knew her secret now and a few months passed by without Percy knowing about their Spidey bussiness
Partially because she was focused on her own.She'd witnessed firsthand and heard countless reports of vigilante justice and had wanted in on it for a long ass time then but didn't want to risk her siblings loosing her so she held off until her powers and so she felt more confident she could do it without dying.When she found out what they'd been doing 'behind her back' from her pov,she couldn't hold back her worried and terrified anger and demanded they hang up their masks so she wouldn't loose them and that they go back to being regular kids and it escalated into full-blown argument with them pitted against her
Leading to Percy catching Venom,it having featured in some Nico and Hazel stories pre that scene,and a battle on the roof of the Empire State Building where what happened to Gabe comes to light and their unhesitant acceptance of what she did gives her enough strength and them enough momentum to remove her symbiote and trap it in Hazel's favorite hourglass
And from then on,they function as a three Spiderperson team at long last !
