[Beaming. Possibly ruffling his hair.] The ghost of Christmas future.

[bedeviledspider.livejournal.com]

You really expect me to believe that? I'm not stupid.

[secondhandwebs]

[d'awww. Ruffle ruffle]

Alright, you got me. I'm not a ghost. Or in anyway Christmas related. But part of it's true.

[bedeviledspider.livejournal.com]

You're from the future? ...Really?

Prove it. Tell me what it's like!

[secondhandwebs]

[Why can't grown!DD be this cute when he's being broody? Now to smooth out the ruffled hair.]

Prove it, hm? How's you know I was right, huh. But I'll do what I can. What do you want to know?

[bedeviledspider.livejournal.com]

Ummmmmmmmmmmmm.

Do we have flying cars? What about space ships that go whoosh and do I make the baseball team and and and is my mom still on her super secret mission up in a tower somewhere?

[secondhandwebs]

You have the flying cars space ships alright, kiddo, just check with Reed Richards. Still not, er, popular, but they exist.

[Squat down to little!Reilly eye level]

And believe it or not, you're a very, very good secret keeper. So I don't know either of the last two.

[bedeviledspider.livejournal.com]

Really really?! Awesome. My uncle said that was stupid, and I read too many stupid sci-fi books, but I knew it.

...Oh. W- well, that's okay. I am really good at keeping secrets. Like my mom! Who's totally a spy princess. Except she's captured now. But I'm going to be big and strong and iffff she's still there I'll save her someday. Yeah.

[secondhandwebs]

[Aw, breaking her heart. But he still gets a soft smile.]

Hm, well. Since you're so good at it I can tell you one, right? And you'll cross your heart not to tell?

[bedeviledspider.livejournal.com]

Okay. As long as it's a good secret. Okay.

[secondhandwebs]

[Winks and leans in to whisper conspiratorially.]

You grow up to be the bravest hero I know.

;_;

[bedeviledspider.livejournal.com]

...Me?

I'm going to be a hero.

Wait, wait. How do you know? Are we friends, in the future? 'Cause I think that'd be... pretty cool. I guess. Even if you're a girl.

*clings*

[secondhandwebs]

[Amused smile. If only she could say his people skills got better, too.]

Why thank you, hot shot. I'm glad you can overlook that, because we end up spending a lot of time working together.

*spider-clings*

[bedeviledspider.livejournal.com]

Well, that's because girls have cooties. Because they're gross. But you seem okay.

Do we get to wear cool costumes?

[secondhandwebs]

Very, very cool costumes. We're famous. You know, in New York.

[Yes, she likes the full-body spandex, hush. Though May now suspects he never outgrew the cootie thing.]

And it's a good thing you can push aside the cootie fear, since you save my life a time or two.

[bedeviledspider.livejournal.com]

We're famous?! Are we like Avengers? Or, oh, oh, um. Spider-Man! I haven't, uh, seen him except in pictures because he's all retired and stuff but he's awesome.

And, duh. Of course I'd save you. We're friends.

[secondhandwebs]

[Beams. If only Spider-Man wouldn't call him a hack.]

Just like Spider-Man and Daredevil. Literally just like them, actually..

You just remember that friends part. And that sometimes people are only incredibly obnoxious to you because they care.

[bedeviledspider.livejournal.com]

Daredevil too?! All mysterious and ninjalike, like poof! I am here take you down bad guys hi-yah! and don't you ever do it again pow!. Like that?

And don't worry about me, I won't forget. Never.

[secondhandwebs]

[Bawww, so cute. Holds up her hands laughing.]

Exactly like that. Baddies, aliens, magical beings, and all kinds of things.

[An idea occurs. A hopeless, doomed idea.]

Just remember, bad guys are people, too. No one likes broken bones.

[bedeviledspider.livejournal.com]

... now you sound like the principal. 'Stop getting into fights', 'Why'd you punch that kid?', 'We're going to tell your uncle'. Like that ever helps! Sometimes you can't be nice. Sometimes people get hurt even if they try to be good.

[secondhandwebs]

[Places her hands on his shoulders. Hopeless, but she has to try.]

Sometimes good people do get hurt, and you're right, that's not fair. No one deserves to be hurt for nothing. Does hurting other people help that, though?
