Sense of Humor


A funny author(hopefully)

T

Samantha Summers didn't want to move from Oregon to go to some crumbling apartment in New York, not because of her mom or her newly attained position at Crystal Empire HQ. It was hard enough trying to figure out why she could generate light energy from her palms; completely changing her lifestyle to fit the standards of another school was another burden. The only interesting thing about it was the abundance of "abnormal people" that originated in New York, and they had all pretty much disappeared. Just a guy in a red and blue suit and occasionally Iron man.

Peter Parker didn't want to wait for Mr.Stark to call him up for another mission, or wait for the action to come to him for that matter. He'd quit every school-related group just to make room for his side-life, and he got nothing in return for it. Lots of people at school got suspicious or cynical of him, and his school life began a downward spiral towards the realm of boring. The new girl at school wasnt even enough to interest him...until he learned the reason behind the gloves she wore all the time.

Despite her reluctance to learn how her powers work, Peter knows an opportunity to have a sidekick when he sees one. He even offers to train her in the ways of crime fighting and selflessly gave her the incredibly awesome name of Firefly! Maybe if he could prove his ability as a leader, Mr.Stark would bring him along on missions more often! They could even be a cool, buddy cop duo-thing, if she trains hard enough!

What could go wrong?

Haven't even seen Homecoming, but this looks promising :twilightsmile:

Also, love the cover art; "Samantha's" giant scowl cracked me up a little.

Hm. Interesting start, at least.

Thank you for writing this. Spider-Man homecoming is probably my favorite super hero movie and, seeing it here is awesome! You have a very promising start here and I hope to see more soon.:pinkiehappy:

Summers, huh? She wouldn't happen to be any relation to certain X-men, would she?

I... would not be against that, even if FOX wants to be immature dicks and not work with Marvel.

Peter even tried false alarming Happy once by texting about Ultron's return or aliens in disguise.

Nah, I don't think we'll be getting the Skrulls in this universe. We'd need Super Skrull for that to work and FOX owns the film rights.

Also, Celest? Someone who has often given "make more friends" speeches to her daughter who is in fact the AU counterpart of Sunset Shimmer? :trollestia:

And as a little funny thing to mention, I looked up the time card clip for this and listened to it while reading in real time.

Consider this story tracked. :twilightsmile:

"Hi." The girl scratched her messy, dark brown hair and leaned against the wall. Her voice was unbelievably wry and bored, very similar to her own expression. "Peter begged me to get you to sit with us at our table...You are the new girl, right?"

Michele, so help me...

"Mmm-hmm." Sam couldn't help but vent just slightly since she asked the question. It felt pretty good to do just that. "My mom says it's for business and because of the building she bought down here. Thanks to its importance and popularity here, she needs to be in New York and of course...I'm dragged along for the ride. The building is so big, they're barely halfway done moving their things out of it!"

...please tell me she bought Avengers Tower.

Things were a blur after he yelled that-- in a span of four seconds Samantha looked up in fear to see the car, the car came within a couple of feet of her and then she held up her arms with a shriek. Then there was a blinding orange light, then a lazer sound and the next thing he knew, the car was flipping up in the air--twenty feet or more-- and was hurting down onto an oncoming car. Spider-man's wrist propelled him forward in time to spray another web-net that caught the car inches from smashing the roof of the other car. The woman inside the latter sighed in relief, and her children waved to the vigilante eagerly.

Magic. *Snort snort*

She did indeed buy it, and Peter's going to have a funny reaction when he finds that out. I hope.

I hope Ned recovers soon. What is Spider-Man supposed to do without his man in the chair? :pinkiehappy:

Sunset snorted, but then stopped herself with a lingering smile.

:rainbowderp: walks over to glass covered switch labeled GRAMMAR ALERT and breaks glass with small hammer before pulling switch

That name has no meaning to be in this part of the fic yet. Just thought I should point that out.

Me and my stupid, autocorrecting mind.

Eh, happens to the best of us.

He had to strain his facial muscles to keep the smile he had from growing, especially since smiling in a lunch line was a bad idea. It all made perfect sense; Samantha clearly had great power , but from what he'd seen there was no training if any. It was a win-win situation-- Spider-man takes her under his wing, shows her the ropes and then Iron man comes rolling in to give him an Avengers position! Not to mention that he could get a sidekick out of this whole thing, and he always wanted a sidekick before, just like in the comics. Sure, she wasn't the spitting image of Robin when it came down to personality and all, but it was nothing he could fix. And convincing her would be easy! Who wouldn't want to be a super hero?

Does Peter know what he's doing? Probably not.

From experience in being a teenager, I can safely say that I didn't know what I was doing. XD

Is this story dead?


Why do all of the best stories die...:fluttercry:

Spider-Man: Let it go, let it-
Samantha: No, God! No God please no! No! No! NOOOOOOOOO-

Dude awespme job with the cover art! Did you do that by youre self? If so respect man RESPECT!

Ok so i just finised reading all the chapters so far and i got to say i love this story so far!
I realy hope you decide to make more man this is top quality!:pinkiehappy:

Oh hay its back!:pinkiehappy:
Man i honestly forgot about this. Well its good to have it back regardless.:twilightsmile:

Cant wait to see where things go from here and i promise to comment something more insightfull once something catches my eye!:moustache:

“Firecracker sucks. That's like a stripper name or something.”

She gave an offended gasp. “What?! It does not sound like a stripper name?

Yes, yes it does.

I loved be this

Good story 11/10 would read again

That conversation could've gone better instead of just throwing in the request of joining him
