"HEY," the octopus guy called her as she was sitting down on the ground of the cage with her back on the rock wall. "You aren't Spider-man's girlfriend."
"According to this multiverse nonsense, there could be an infinite number of Spider-man variants and you thought I'm not who I say I am because I'm not the girlfriend to your Spider-man? I mean, this whole situation... string theory, multidimensional reality and matter displacement... and you honestly believe your Spiderman is the only one?" She scoffed.

"And who are you?"
Peter breathed in deeply. "That... uhm... That is Harper..."
"What are you supposed to be?" Ned asked her.

"Boston?" Peter asked.
"MIT," she said back, as if it was obvious. "Peter and I... just... forget it and get us home, please?"

"I found him!" Ned yelled, making Harper open her eyes and sit down straight. "You can take the guy out of the chair, but you can't take the chair out of the guy." She frowned, maybe needing context for that.
