[ The messages come scattered, broken up, frantic, like he's texting and webbing or struggling with what to say. A Peter Parker first. ]

hey
um
idk what to say
but i think my aunt is
that's her video and
she doesn't know
i'm going to go find her


what do i do

[solipsistically]

I think so, too. Calm down, it's okay. Go find her. Bring her home. I'm putting some coffee on. You got this, kiddo. She'd got a second chance at life. Make it as easy for her to adjust to as possible. You know Prim and I will have your back.

how do i tell her what i did

[ what if she won't forgive me is what he wants to ask, but doesn't, as he stands on the rooftop and looks down at his device. ]

[solipsistically]

The fuck does that mean? What you did? YOU didn't kill her, right? So you didn't DO anything wrong, Peter.

Sometimes, shit just happens. I know that's hard to process when you feel guilty, I'm an expert in that by now, but it's true.

So, you tell her what happened and if she loves you as much as it sounds like she does from the way she's talking about you and the way you've always talked about her, she'll immediately forgive you and want to help you forgive yourself. Go find your aunt. It's gonna be okay, I promise, kid. And you know I don't make promises I can't keep.

i'm glad she's here
that she can have another life

idk i'm just
i feel like i can't catch my breath
i'll go tho
get her i mean
and coffee
yeah

[solipsistically]

Okay, no. Stop. Just...hold on.
Take a deep breath while counting in your head to five. Hold it for a five count, let it out for a five count. Repeat until you can do it without hiccuping or gasping for air. THEN you can go get her. Capiche?

You got this, kid.

[klebrige]

breathing
right
got it

thanks five
i'm really glad you're still here

[solipsistically]

Okay good. You're gonna be fine.
Just keep breathing.

You're welcome. I'm glad you're back, kid.

Now leave me alone so I can get started on the French press before you get back here. Go get your aunt.
