[She knows he's humouring her, but that doesn't mean she's not going to take advantage of it. Besides, these kinds of moments are few and in between -- where they can just have fun and not worry about what horrors they'll have to face in the fight against Zymandis, how they've more or less been drafted into a war. Peter needs to take himself less seriously, too, and that's her professional opinion]

[Maya spits water in his direction as she surfaces and is sprayed, then takes the opportunity to climb on top of him and try to dunk him again from her vantage point]

[She's going to dunk him forever]

Nope! Lunks are big nerds who are totally helpless and need an awesome Maya around to save the day. So, that's you, and Nick. I'm the awesome Maya saving the day, obviously.

( it's true, their work doesn't give them a lot of downtime. usually everything is ramped up to 11, maybe higher — there are questions of morality, life and death, right and wrong, and everything in between. a lot of times lives hung in the balance if the wrong choices were made. it was a lot of pressure and didn't leave a lot of room for them to just have fun.

it was worth it to embrace what moments they had, few as they were. as ridiculous as it was to have a water fight in what was supposed to be a relaxing and calm environment, there's no place he'd rather be. probably no person he'd rather want to water fight with, at that, but that's getting a little gay.

Maya basically clambered on his shoulders to just hold him under the water, and only his dumb head manages to clear the surface. ) Process of elimination would make that you, yeah. Unless there are more Mayas around here I haven't heard about. ( the problem with trying to climb on him, though, is that she relies on him for security. don't stand on an island that wants to dunk you. Peter drops to his knees and both of them are going to go under. kamikaze dunk.

still worth it. )

[Exactly, so Maya's not going to let an opportunity skirt by like this. She's going to make the most of this time they have together to have fun and let him have fun, without him having to carry the weight of multiple worlds and timelines on his shoulders]

[She weighs like 90 pounds soaking wet, so he wouldn't even need super strength to keep his head above water even with her perched on his shoulders, but it's pretty much impossible for her to push him down unless he humors her. Which, it seems like he's doing---]

Nope! I'm one of a kind, baby!

[----Until he takes her out with him. She goes down screeching, flailing at him--- but it's not a total loss. After all, he's getting soaked too]

HEY!

[But it comes out more as angry underwater bubbling than anything else]

[webdesigned]

( she's basically the weight of an angry bag of flour, so yes it does take a bit of doing to push him anywhere. still, when there's only a head for the dunking, it is easy enough for even Maya's noodle arms to accomplish.

still, it only lasts so long, because as a boy he is an agent of chaos and destruction and Maya is doomed to suffer for it. so is his sweatshirt, tbh, but lbr it was already a lost cause after she climbed in.

her flailing kicks him a few times and he ends up stuck under the water until she surfaces, leaving him short of breath when he does. spider mutations didn't give him unreal ability to not need oxygen underwater, good to know. ) We should call a truce or we're both going to drown to prove a point. ( this is the most logical thing he's said all night. )

[feytality]

[The sweatshirt was doomed the second he threw it, and the angry bag of flour cackles as she perseveres over the forces of Peter's big fat head and he gets dunked on]

[She disembarks hastily as soon as he properly goes under so she doesn't get dragged back down with them, and swishes away from him before he resurfaces, coughing out some water herself]

Are you willing to admit I'm super awesome?

[if not they might just end up in mutually assured destruction]

[webdesigned]

I'd admit that even without the risk of you drowning me.

( god. gross. he totally would, though... Peter Parker thinks you are great, Maya. if there's a level above super awesome, he'd even say you're that. Peter may have issues liking himself, yet that struggle didn't seem to affect anyone else. especially not the people that mattered most to him, and Maya qualified as one of those. )

So, truce?

[feytality]

Oh, really? I'm going to have to put that to the test.

[But Maya's accomplished what she needs to, and Peter was wise to feed her ego, so she'll relent.]

[Her cheeks look a little flushed, too, or is that just the heat? What a mystery]

Fine! Truce.

[webdesigned]

( why you need to test how willing he is to say gay shit about you is beyond me, Maya. he already does it pretty easily... )

Okay, truce. Let's actually relax in this thing while we still can, I'd say we have only about five minutes at best before we start getting pruny.

[feytality]

[listen she's just teasing because affection is weird and she doesn't know how to handle it. She's clearly not used to gay stuff being said about her!!!]

I'd say it's too late for even that.... so let's go the full prune.

wrap here??

[webdesigned]

Full prune it is. We're going to walk out of here with the skin of 80 year olds.

( they probably are, to be truthful. if Peter can steal a little more time with Maya, without the weight and emotional drain of a mission hanging over either of them? he will. it may not be long but this moment is important because it won't last.

so, it isn't so crazy to make it last as long as they can. )
