Peter Parker and The Avengers: Wrong Number AU

10. Speedy

Peter

Hey, Speedy?

Speedy

Yeah, Hacker?

Peter

You said that you and Magic are twins.

And are 18.

Do you go to school?

Speedy

XD

Sorry, Hacker.

We don't.

We never really have.

Peter

Oh.

Why's that?

Speedy

We lost our birth parents early on and the place we were raised in taught us what we know.

We found a new family with these guys and they teach us everything now.

Peter

Oh, I'm sorry for bringing it up!

Speedy

It's okay, Hacker.

I'm open to any questions!

Peter

Okay, that makes me feel better.

So, what your favorite color?

Speedy

Favorite color?

Peter

Sorry!

I'm not used to interacting and having conversations with people.

Speedy

No, It's fine.

Really.

I like blue and silver.

Magic is next to me and wants you to know that she likes red and black.

Peter

Oh, good.

And awesome!

I like those too!

I actually like the color green.

Speedy

Really?

That's cool.

Why green?

Peter

Well, red and blue used to be my favorite as a kid.

I actually was blind from a smoke accident and I couldn't see.

I was around 4 and I couldn't remember what colors looked like.

My friend would sit with me and describe what things looked like.

The way they described green just stuck with me.

Speedy

Oh, wow.

That's really nice to hear.

How'd they describe the color green?

Peter

They said it was the color of grass.

The color was itchy and sometimes disgusting.

But when mixed right and put on the right canvas, it was beautiful.

It was the trees and plants.

It was calm.

It reminds me of Life.

How it can be so shitty, but you can still get some amazing things out of it.

Speedy

Wow...

That's amazing...

I never thought of it like that.

Peter

Yeah.

Oh, I have to go!

I gotta get to work.

Bye, Speedy!

Speedy

Bye, CR!

Peter

CR?

Speedy

Cinnamon Roll.

You just seem like one.

Peter

Thanks, Speedy.

:)

Speedy

NP, Hacker!
