ARCHIVING SOON - New blog on the horizon

eyyo, Spider-Matt here. consider this blog archived while I make a new one for Peter and go thru the hell of making a new theme and shit.

hey guys!!! I promise to be back to my usual speed and frequency with these accounts. it’s been as exciting a week just as it has been a rough one, though sadly last night after a grueling series of closing shifts, I was informed by my mother that an old childhood friend of mine lost his grandma. she died in her sleep on Tuesday. a real world death on Halloween can be tragic, and this kindred spirited old woman was fighting some pretty serious symptoms of what was probably a heart disease. this friend of mine, his favorite holiday just recently passed, and I cannot help but fathom that he may not look so forward to it in the next few years (not to mention the worst of his depression usually would strike in fall, in spite of his unabashed enthusiasm for All Hallow’s Eve).

Friday is my next day off, and until maybe tomorrow/Thursday (Nov. 2) I likely won’t know if I’ll just be home and with this friend at the funeral services in spirit. But I really wanna be present for either the main event, or just the wake. I have been hyped for a movie soon to come to theaters this weekend, but it’s kinda been put off for now due to such a recent loss as stated in the above paragraph. At least for now. Other than that work is never subtle, always kicking my ass.. so if I’m offline, it’s due to work, gym time, or other personal times when I’m to myself.

I appreciate your patience with me. and it shall be rewarded as soon as possible. :)

“Five hundred foot drop ahead of us here,  curls. We’re gonna make it. Though next time, hold off on badmouthing Mr. Jameson on the same day that volatile supervillains wanna tear him a new one.”

also, given my financial status between Homecoming’s theatrical release, and its recent home release, I’ve watched the blu-ray twice after only seeing the theatrical once. and I noticed I missed the Aaron Davis interrogation scene. lovelovelovelovelove how this film does not hold back it’s subtle comparisons to other superhero media tropes!!! from Peter asking Karen for criminal database info on Toomes’ dealers/buyers, to a scene I missed due to a bathroom break the first viewing where Spidey activated a deep voice emulator, a jab at how ARROW and even The Flash on TV depict their titular heroes in scenes involving brutal interrogation.

AND GUYS I COULD NOT CONTROL MY LAUGHTER.

I want more of this. hopefully the Infinity War fallout won’t make things like this seem like a pipe dream.

yeah, so, I wasn’t on last night due to lingering frustration from work I’d rather not discuss.

on a brighter note, it feels like fall FINALLY (I live in the south, so it’s like a luxury to even have a cool down by mid-September). it always makes me wonder how my muse fares in life during this time of the year bc knowing he’s a practical aerialist, it’s always colder the higher in the air he gets. that, and emotionally people change as the weather gets more brisk. it makes me happy thinking about my muse and just anything fall/winter. which was a time of year I was born in, not to gloat or anything...

anyways, I’m gonna write some things up and finish some drafts. it’s good to be back here, and thanks to those of you who liked my last starter call. it definitely gave me something worth coming back to.

“I stole his shield once. Guess he’s kinda rubbed off on me ever since that day.  No, seriously, on vacation from school, you  couldn’t  think  of anything better to do with your free time?”  The only reason he hasn’t yanked the bottle from her  -  and best believe he would and shall soon do so  -  is because he’s holding out hope that it’s really just a damn good root beer and she fears someone will snatch it from her.  “Well what sorta hero would I be if enabled my young peers to do any and everything they please?  Times are changing, both for good and bad, but it doesn’t make bad decisions any less reckless.”

“Are you insinuating something?  Because I’m caught up in the fact that you’re carrying obvious booze around like a hobo. You kinda stick out in this part of town, too,  y’know?  Teen drinking and homeless rates have dropped tremendously the last few months.”

“Before you ask,  yes  I should be in school. Just the same as you should not be drinking that concealed liquor in public and broad daylight.”

“I’m pretty sure that freezer aisle Mexican cuisine you just nuked is more radioactive than what bit me years ago.  But you know, rather you eat it than me, Mr.  I-Get-My-Intestines-Kabobbed-Every-Tuesday-And-Survive.”

“Hey...  like...  these unions and protests you like to join...  mind if I tag along?”  MJ was a difficult friend. Perhaps she wouldn’t mind the company, but then again, she seems content with picketing and boycotting atrocities in politics among total strangers who do the same thing.  It wasn’t ‘cause he liked her,  nah.  What would give you that notion?

I know I’ve been gone for months that felt like eternity, but like this for a starter. Comment for comic-based. SEND ME A SPOOKY EMOJI IF YOU WANT A HALLOWEEN/FALL THREAD.

“Oh, I’m just improving the formula for my  ‘toughest tape yet’  project I thought up last week.”  Was there any better cover-up for the fact that he was making stronger web fluids?  “So watch your hands, wouldn’t wanna get stuck.”  Probably the most entertaining thing he’ll say to Jess while she clings to him for a distraction from whatever’s troubling her.

LITERATURE QUIZZES: Repost with your muse’s results for the following quizzes.

HOMERIC EPITHET:   Bright-eyed.  You are bright-eyed Peter Parker.  Homer also used this epithet to describe Athena, the goddess of things like wisdom, diplomacy, war, and arts and crafts. Athena was the patron of Odysseus and helped him out of some tough spots, except for those times she just didn’t feel like it for some reason or another.

FATAL FLAW:   Your uncompromising sense of justice. When it comes to right and wrong, there’s no gray area. Not for you. You’re like a cop who says stuff like, "Listen, buddy, I don't make the rules—but I WILL enforece them." Look, you’ve got principles, and I get that. I can respect that. But you’re going to wind up dead in a river (JAVERT) if you don’t ease up a little on the rulebook and reconcile these two opposing viewpoints before a convict saves your life and shatters everything you thought you knew.

GREEK MYTHOLOGY DEATH:    Murdered by accident, in Achilles’ armor.  One day, during the Trojan War, Achilles decides to just up and quit. He’s the greatest warrior apparently ever, so this is something of an issue. You can’t bear to watch men die in battle for Achilles’ pride, so you don his armor yourself and lead his men into battle. Everyone thinks you are Achilles, and morale is high. You die, however, because somewhere in there you remember that you’re actually terrible at fighting. Silver lining: Achilles avenges your death something FIERCE. So that's something.

LITERARY SETTING:    You got Pemberley, Mr. Darcy’s stunning country estate! This elegant mansion is replete with classy chaise lounges, tasteful decoration, natural beauty, and large marble statues of wealthy, gorgeous Brits. Totally ideal for a charming, Lizzy Bennet-type like yourself! The secluded woody hills are perfect for taking dates on long, romantic (un-chaperoned) strolls, and the house itself is so Instagram-worthy that even Taylor Swift (house-party hostess extraordinaire) will be jealous of you and your squad’s bash-throwing capabilities!
