Probably not the best place for a lab...

[hashtagparkerluck]

Who: Peter and you?
when: Sometime in June after Summer Camp Fun
Where: Fate's Design
What: Peter's still around and he might need more web fluid


[ Peter's gathered a few things up and taken over an unused table in the casino. Technically, he's not old enough to gamble, at least not by the US's standard and he's pretty sure gambling is straight up illegal in New York. But he's not here for that, he's here to try and make something resembling web fluid. His supply is dangerously low and he'd like to avoid running out if he can. ]

[ He's mixing chemicals and trying to be careful about it but his PPE is basically a pair of sunglasses and some tongs he may or may not have taken from the salad bar at the buffet. It's probably fine. He bites gently on his tongue as he carefully, carefully tips a glass carefully to join it with a roughly measure out batch of pre-mixed chemicals. ]

[ These are not the best conditions and this is not the best place to do this but he needs to experiment and it's not like there's a convenient lab something for him to work in. Just as he's think that maybe this isn't the best place for this there's a loud Pop! and Peter drops the tongs in alarm. ]

Uh.. [ He watches with baited breath as his concoction bubbles ominously with baited breath. It turns a weird purple color and bubbles over and out of the glass he's tried to contain it in. And then bubbles over again. ]

Shit!

"Me too!" Peter accidentally squeaks when the girl admits that she gets excited about science. He then clears his throat because that was embarrassing and he's just not going to acknowledge that that happened.

"Uh... yeah, I did. Invent it I mean. Well not-this isn't-it didn't turn out. I don't have the right stuff and my notebook I've got all my web formulas in is uh back at school."

"Oh, that's too bad...Well, can I help you try to re-create it? I once made a dog out of inert carbon as a side project! She was 5% faster and 6% smarter than a normal dog, and I hand edited all 6 million sequences, it was fun really fun! She ended up being taken by Division 14 cause she was a freak of nature who could shoot lighting out of her mouth, but really, I think I did I pretty good job considering I had never seen a real dog before!"

Tendi says all this seemingly without pausing for breath, the idea of helping with science has got her very excited. She's also rather happy that this person who's name she dosn't know hasn't mentioned her green skin, which is a lovely change of pace compared to the rest of the people on board. "So what is it supposed to do?"

[hashtagparkerluck]

Of course he hasn't mentioned her green skin, Aunt May taught him to be polite, he's pretty sure it's impolite to point out people's skin tone and it's not like she wouldn't already know what color her own skin is. He's far more concerned about what's coming out of her mouth anyway.

"You.. made a dog? Like a Labrador or Goldendoodle?" He asked, his brain desperately trying to figure out how that would even work. She made it out of carbon? Like a real living dog?

...

...With superpowers apparently.

"Guess that makes me freak of nature too, I have spider powers." He says casually. "I'm Peter, by the way, Peter Parker."

"Oh, I mainly used the matter recombiner with some help from the replicator, and bio-regeneration to get the cells right, you know it was actually tricky to get the mitochondria all lined up and firing correctly! We're encouraged to do side projects in medical, so I wanted to make a fluffy friend!"

Tendi pauses for a moment, remembering something. "Oh wait, also I'm from 2380, I don't know if that's in the future for you. So far I haven't found anyone who's farther in the future, but well, first time for everything!"

"Oh, Spider powers? What does that mean? Like you have control over spiders? That's really neat! And it's nice to meet you Peter!"

Tendi really wants to give him a medical scan, once she hears spider powers, but she need to be polite.

[hashtagparkerluck]

The thing is, Peter looks like he actually knows what she's talking about. And he does. Although he's sure things that are just theories in his time have either been proven or disproven. "And the result was a dog with the power of Thor?" He takes a second to think about it and then nods in approval. "Neat."

"Anyways no, I can't control spiders. Just stick to any surface. But I bluff to a bank robber once that I could control spiders and he just surrendered. It was awesome." If she does given into curiosity she'll find his DNA is a bit fucked up thanks to being modified by a radioactive spider.

"Oh wow! So you're like a superhero? That's really cool! So what have you been making then, something you need for your...superheroing? You said it was web fluid, is that what it sounds like?"

Tendi bends over the table and gives the foamy stuff a bit of a poke, a strand sticking to her finger. "Oooh, neat! Sticky, how is it supposed to look?"

[hashtagparkerluck]

"Yeah, I use webs to get around the city and to catch bad guys. My hero name is Spider-Man." He offers with a casual shrug that's meant to hide just how cool he thinks his superhero alter ego is.

"Oh don't-Oh, okay." He fails to stop her from touching it in time. Well, it's probably not as strong as it should be so she should be able to free herself from it with ease.

"Um.. it's actually supposed to look a lot more like actual webbing. Not like... whatever this is." He gestures to the mess.

[starfleetcleaner]

Tendi gives her hand a shake, the webbing going in sticky strands like mozzarella cheese. "Huh, well, it seems a bit like webbing, but it's...clumpy. Do you have the formula for the web fluid? We could try and figure it out! Oooh, and if you have any original samples, we can analyze it, and figure out how to make it!"

[hashtagparkerluck]

"I know the formula I used for the stuff I make back home but I'm missing like a ton of the ingredients so I'm kinda starting from scratch. It would really help if I had my original notes." He just lets out a sigh and looks at his mess again.

"Oh well, I guess. And I do have some webfluid left but I really want to save it just in case."

[starfleetcleaner]

"Ooh, you do? Great! I can analyze it! Where is it?" Tendi gives her hand a shake, the strands of web fluid spreading like hot melted plastic in the air. "Oh dang...Um, how long does this take to dissolve? Or...how do you get it off?"
