SPIDERS issue #3.

Spiders (2023) #3. New powers, an unwanted bond, and a broken window - Roxy and Liam are closer than they’d ever imagined they could be. They’ve got a lot to discuss, including that both of their most trusted confidants are apparently… roommates? The two have got to figure out at least how to handle their newfound abilities and each other before they’re back to running again. If there’s anything that Roxy and Liam do know for certain it’s that while they may have lost the scientist collective, for now, they will be back. -- written by maggie & birdie!

liam sits on the fire escape, legs dangling over the edge with a lack of fear that only unknowing toddlers tend to possess about danger.

back lit by the warm light of martin’s room, she sits, eyes shut, and listening to the faint sound of dishes being washed. she wouldn’t have ever noticed it before, not over the sounds of the city, but it’s just another thing that’s new. a shiver runs through them, no shit that it does on a mid-october night when liam’s dressed in joggers and a distressed tee. they’re not layered in the slightest.

feeling compelled, their posture straightens and no more than a minute later does roxy appear— emerging from the broken window. she approaches nervously, when liam turns towards her, with a forced smile that doesn’t quite reach their eyes.

in an awkward exchange they both give a “hi”.

“i, uh, i thought you might be cold, so–” arms extended, she holds out to liam a msst sweatshirt that’s clearly too big for roxy–one of peter’s. liam takes it with a grin, prepared to pull it on. “it’s peter’s, so it’s massive–”

pulling it over their head, their face scrunches in a light disgust. “—and fucking reeks. holy shit.”

they both laugh, and liam still pulls it over despite the fact it’s most certainly been used as a post workout sweater.

“if you want a different one–” she shifts in place.

“roxy, it’s okay. this is great.”

a few moments of silence pass in between them before roxy starts turning towards the hazard of a window.

“okay, well, i’m gonna-”

“do you wanna sit?”

roxy freezes, and then nods, finally taking a seat beside liam, who scooches over to allow her. it’s a smooth, thoughtless motion as if they’ve been making room for roxy all their life. both of them fidget in silence, unable to sit still with how worked up they are.

far off, an alarm sounds. roxy flinches. instinctively, liam’s hand lands on roxy’s back.

quietly roxy blurts out, “i feel like you just burped me.”

with that, liam simply breaks into a fit of laughter, arm pulling away. “what?”

“like when moms burp their babies, y’know?”

“no. i know what you meant–did i hit you?”

“kinda, yeah.”

their laughter dies quick, eyes dropping down to stare at their hands. liam balls her hands into fits and unfurls them again, and roxy watches, studying.

what is happening to them?

"it didn't hurt or anything. sorry- it was just a bad joke."

"not a bad joke," she assures, "just one of those weeks."

roxy can't hold back another joke, mumbling, "a terrible horrible no good very bad week."

liam lights up. "no way. i fucking loved that book."

"yeah?" a beat, "seriously, liam, it didn't hurt."

"why-” why is roxy bringing it back up? “oh," their head falls in their hands upon the revelation that the tightness in their chest is no longer just theirs. "oh god, that's gotta be the worst fucking part of all of this." roxy feels it too.

"sorry- it feels wrong, but-"

"it's out of our control."

"which is totally fucked."

"totally and completely fucked." liam can’t help the small question dancing in their head. who’s to say that what liam is feeling is theirs? maybe it was roxy’s to begin with. they shoot a quick look at the other wondering if the same curiosity sits with her. or if maybe roxy can simply feel this too.

roxy pulls her sweater sleeves over her hands, breath fogging. "’m kinda tired," she admits.

liam picks up their head, turning it towards her. "no way." there's an obvious amount of sarcasm from the two words alone, "you? tired? but we've been getting nothing but sleep!"

"funny."

"i'll walk you home if you want," they offer, sitting up.

"i was actually gonna offer you my pull out couch, if you wanted to stay over."

it goes unsaid, that while they might be able to go back to their beds, the nightmares are going to keep them both up.

"yeah, okay, but," liam points below, "mind if we stick to the ground for now?"

"oh we can stick to ground, yeah."

liam leans, bumping roxy's arm. "oh my god."

Marine Corps Maritime Safety and Security Teams (MSSTs):**

MSSTs are specialized units within the U.S. Coast Guard and not typically part of the Marine Corps. However, they work closely with other military branches, including the U.S. Marine Corps, for a variety of security missions, particularly in maritime environments. Their primary roles include anti-terrorism, port security, and responding to chemical, biological, radiological, nuclear, and high-yield explosive (CBRNE) threats.

**St Clement Danes, London, Armed Forces Day of Prayer:**

St Clement Danes, the central church of the Royal Air Force in London, has long served as a focal point for prayers for the nation’s armed forces. The tradition of the Armed Forces Day of Prayer reflects the UK’s long history of invoking divine protection for its military personnel, particularly in times of conflict.

### Hypothetical Operation Brief: Operation Virtuous Resolve

**Operation Name:** Virtuous Resolve

**Objective:** To ensure the safety and security of key maritime assets and civilian infrastructure during a period of heightened threat perception, while simultaneously conducting humanitarian support missions in coordination with allied forces.

**Date of Operation:** June 2023 (aligned with the Armed Forces Day of Prayer theme)

**Area of Operations:** The North Atlantic, focusing on key shipping lanes near the United Kingdom and maritime routes critical to the EU’s supply chain.

#### 1. **Mission Overview**

The operation aims to establish a multi-layered defense against potential maritime threats. This involves coordination between MSST 804, the U.S. Navy, Royal Navy, and NATO allies. Key components include surveillance, deterrence, and response operations in both open ocean and port environments.

#### 2. **Strategic Significance**

The operation falls within a broader strategy to maintain maritime dominance, safeguard global trade routes, and protect civilian populations from asymmetric threats. Given the geopolitical tensions and potential disruptions to global supply chains, ensuring maritime security is critical.

#### 3. **Key Units Involved**

- **MSST 804:** Specializing in port security and rapid response, this team will focus on interdicting and neutralizing small, fast-moving threats such as unmanned aerial systems (UAS) or small boats that could be used in terrorist attacks.

- **USS Arleigh Burke (DDG-51):** A guided-missile destroyer providing air and missile defense to the task force.

- **HMS Queen Elizabeth (R08):** Flagship of the Royal Navy, providing air support and command and control for NATO forces.

- **2nd Marine Expeditionary Brigade:** Responsible for rapid deployment and amphibious operations in case of an escalated conflict.

#### 4. **Operations Plan**

- **Phase 1: Surveillance and Intelligence Gathering**

- Deployment of P-8 Poseidon maritime patrol aircraft and MQ-9 Reaper drones to gather real-time intelligence on potential threats.

- Utilization of SIGINT (signals intelligence) assets to intercept communications indicating potential hostile actions.

- **Phase 2: Deterrence**

- Visible deployment of naval assets to deter any potential threats. This includes joint naval exercises with NATO partners in the vicinity of key maritime routes.

- Continuous air patrols and the establishment of a no-fly zone in the operational area to prevent hostile incursions.

- **Phase 3: Interdiction and Response**

- MSST 804 will deploy small, fast boats equipped with advanced sensors and non-lethal weapons to intercept suspicious vessels.

- Rules of Engagement (ROE) will be defined to prioritize de-escalation while maintaining readiness to engage any hostile force.

- Preparedness for CBRNE threats, with decontamination units on standby.

- **Phase 4: Humanitarian Support**

- In the event of conflict escalation, humanitarian support will be provided to affected civilian populations, with MSST 804 and Marine Expeditionary Units (MEUs) coordinating the distribution of supplies.

#### 5. **Logistics and Support**

- **Fuel and Supplies:** Refueling and resupply will be coordinated through allied ports in the UK and the Azores.

- **Medical Evacuation (MEDEVAC):** USS Comfort (T-AH-20), a hospital ship, will be stationed in the region to provide medical support.

- **Cybersecurity:** Continuous monitoring and defense against potential cyber-attacks on naval and port infrastructure.

#### 6. **Command and Control**

- **Joint Operations Center (JOC):** Located on HMS Queen Elizabeth, with real-time data sharing between all allied forces.

- **Communications:** Secure satellite communications (SATCOM) will be employed to ensure uninterrupted command links.

#### 7. **Contingencies**

- **Escalation Protocols:** In case of direct engagement, rules for escalation will be clearly defined, with pre-authorized strike packages ready for deployment.

- **Non-Combatant Evacuation Operation (NEO):** Plans are in place for the rapid evacuation of civilians from conflict zones, should the situation deteriorate.

(Take this as an excuse to propely introduce you Spiderman new baby 💚)

They are still very much in progress but Hunter and Hadley Holden are the youngest children of Royal Holden, the founder of Holden Security, one of the largest security firms in the country.

their mother is Alaura Belle, a socialite who is known for her 'philanthropy' and for showing up to every high profile event that she possibly can (she's notorious at The Met Gala)

The Twins go to MSST for a very specific reason, transferring from their elite private school very, very soon after Peter is recruited to The Avengers (Temporarily) by Tony Stark

(I did get the other message but I'm still using this to talk about them because I'm in love_

Becoming A Stark (18)- Peter Parker X Stark!femReader

Word Count: 2434

Warning: Swearing

Author Note: Yes, yes I missed Wednesday’s update. To be honest- it completely slipped my mind with classes. I’m going to have to set an alarm to remind me or something lol. Anyway, let me know what you think of probably my favorite chapter of this story and if you want to be added to the tag list.

Chapter One || Previous Chapter || Master List

“Kid, we have to talk. What have you been thinking?” Tony is pacing around the lab as Peter sits on the stool. He should be working on his physics homework, but Tony needs to talk to him. He’s been fighting on and off with you, he had to rescue Peter from a lake and now the DC stuff. “You could have blown Spidey’s cover so many times in the past weeks plus the alien tech stuff on top of that? You’re supposed to be neighborhood Spider-Man, not running off to DC Spider-Man. What were you thinking?”

“I was thinking that people needed help and I was there.” Peter says, swinging his leg, not looking Tony in the eye.

“Not good enough.” That makes Peter’s head pop up. “I looked up your suit info. Don’t lie to me. Your suit doesn’t even show being in DC after say nine thirty six pm on Friday night which is weird seeing as you were videotaped at the Washington monument on Saturday. So either there’s something off with the suit, or you messed with it?”

“There was, um, some faulty wiring?”

“Nice try. Plus Y/N got pissed at me that I introduced you to Spider-Man first since you were trying to use him as a party trick. And then I had to rescue you from a lake. So either you need to explain what’s going on, or Spider-Man goes back to being a kid in a onesie.”

“Wait you’d take the suit away?”

“I’m trying to figure out where you’re at. None of this seems like the kid that told me he wants to help the little guy.”

“I’m trying to help the little guy, but there is also more I could be doing and you’re not listening. You’re too focused on everything except what I’m telling you. I’m trying to keep the little guy safe from this guy with the wings and you won’t listen. You don’t even seem to care about what I’m actually doing unless it involves Y/N.”

“That’s because she’s my daughter.”

“Who I happen to like a lot and all you care about is keeping her to yourself. You want me to keep a million secrets from her and that’s fine. But you’re making me hurt her and I won’t do it anymore.” Peter snatches his homework off the table and shoves it into his backpack before walking out of the lab. Tony can only watch as the kid walks out of the lab. This conversation went nowhere near where he thought it would go.

And the next few days don’t go any better for Tony. He tries to do what he thinks will help the situation so that Peter doesn’t have to worry about it, but when he has to rescue the entire Staten Island Ferry from being split down the middle, he’s pissed off. So yeah, he takes the kid’s suit. Because he’s worried. And nothing seems to be going through that kid’s thick skull.

Your dad was in a mood when you got home from Betty’s house that afternoon. “Let me guess you weren’t even at Betty’s house studying?”’

“I’ve been at Betty’s since school let out. Happy literally picked me up from there. What’s your problem?” You drop your backpack on the floor.

“My problem is you kids running around like you can do anything in the world and thinking that us adults won’t help you if you just reach out. Instead you have to skirt the rules and make up things. Then we have to come in to save the day all the time.”

“Clearly I have no idea what you’re talking about. But if you’re in a shit mood, quit taking it out on me. Because I was having a relatively good day until now.”

“I was having a relatively good day until your boyfriend messed it up.”

“I don’t have a boyfriend so I have less than zero idea what you’re talking about.”

“Well Parker made his intentions about having feelings for you clear when he stormed out of the lab the other day clear so I thought he would have made a move by now. Then he goes and makes a huge mess that I have to take care of.”

“What are you talking about? There is nothing going on between Peter and I. Honestly if he was having a relationship with any Stark, I would guess it would be you since he spends way more time with you than he does me. But if he did something that you had to fix, that’s on him, not me. So quit taking it out on me.” You grab your backpack and storm up the stairs to your room. Twitter is full of stories about Spider-Man and Iron Man saving the Staten Island Ferry. He goes and makes a huge mess that I have to take care of. Holy Shit. Peter doesn’t know Spider-Man; Peter is Spider-Man.

Grabbing a pair of sunglasses, your wallet, your phone, and your purse, you make your way downstairs. Your dad is still pacing around the living room, mumbling to himself. He doesn’t even look up as the front door beeps, which says something about how far in his head he is. The brownstone is better than the tower at one thing- the paparazzi haven’t swarmed it yet. So you’re actually able to get out of the building without being swarmed like when you leave school. You should call Happy. He at least knows how to get you where you want to go. But you don’t want him to say no or worse tell your dad. So you’ll figure this out.

“FRIDAY, can you pull up directions to Peter Parker’s apartment?”

“Certainly Y/N.”

“FRI, can you not tell my dad where I’m going?”

“He has the ability to override your settings, but unless he does, I will keep your trip a secret.”

“Thanks FRIDAY.” You look at the map on your screen and start walking towards the subway station. It’s been months since you rode the train, but it feels like coming home. You used to ride the E train all the time to go to Betty’s house and school, so this feels like going home. According to the map, Peter lives only four blocks from Nana and Pops’ anyway. It’s going to take some time to get there from where you live now, so right now you plug your headphones in and let your I Hate My Life playlist start playing. Song to Sing When I’m Lonely by John Frusciante plays and you let your head bob back and forth as the train clicks and clacks over the tracks.

You look at the number on your screen one last time before knocking on the door in front of you. “I’m coming.” A voice from the other side calls. A female voice. Not Peter’s voice. “Hi?”

“Hi, is Peter here?”

“Uh, he is. I think he’s in the shower. Who are you?”

“I’m a friend of his. I’m Y/N Stark.” You realize it might be safer to use your old last name, but you’ve gotten so used to saying Stark now, that it’s too late.

“Oh. Peter told me.”

“Told you…?”

“About how he lost the internship. He never mentioned that his friend Y/N was related to your dad though.” Peter lost his internship? That’s news to you.

“My dad is trying to keep it kind of low key.” Not that he did a good job at that.

“Come on in.” The woman motions for you to follow her into the apartment. “I’m May, Peter’s aunt.” You follow her through the kitchen into the living room. “I’d offer you a snack, but I’m not much of a cook.”

“I’m good. My dad is kind of strict about what I’m allowed to eat anyway. No GMOs, all organic, no high fructose corn syrup, all those crazy rules. It’s kind of annoying to be honest.” May looks at the teenager sitting in front of her in a printed graphic tee that reads ‘I like coffee and maybe three people’, a pair of denim shorts and a pair of galaxy high tops. Much more summery than the fall weather that was starting to roll in but a cute outfit nonetheless. Before May can say anything in response, the bathroom door opens and Peter walks out in nothing but a towel.

“I might have used all the hot water, May. Sorry.”

“That’s ok. Your friend stopped by.” Peter looks up to see you, but you can’t help but look at the abs he has somehow managed to hide the entire time you both have been friends.

“Y/N? What-what-what are you doing here?” His hand falls to grasp the towel that's wrapped around his waist.

“Maybe you should put some clothes on before you try to have a full on conversation?” May suggests.

“Clothes. Right.”

“Boys.” May rolls her eyes. “So you go to MSST?” You nod. “Are you as into all the sciences as Peter is?” You shake your head.

“It’s probably the biggest disappointment about being Tony Stark’s kid is that I hate science.” You can’t help but scrunch your nose as you say this.

“Well thank god, because I can’t follow half of what Peter talks about.” May says with a smile.

“That’s how I feel when him and my dad come up from the lab. I never have a clue what they’re talking about. But books, most movies, pop culture, I’m good with that.”

“Well I’m pretty good at following those as well.” May smiles as she talks with you about some of your favorite books, movies you’ve seen recently, and even some news until Peter comes out and steals you. You follow him into a room that has a bunk bed and a ton of tech. It all screams Peter. You don’t know what to say to him, but luckily, Peter starts the conversation.

“I thought your dad would have told you we can’t be friends anymore.” Peter says crossing his arms and kicking some of the legos that Ned had left here across his floor.

“Why ‘cause you lost your internship? When did that happen by the way?”

“Today.” Peter looks at the floor.

“Right when you and him had to save the Staten Ferry right?” Peter’s eyes jump up to look at you.

“What?”

“I feel like an idiot for it taking so long to connect, but you’re Spider-Man. Which makes total sense. I never should have sent the video to my dad in the first place.”

“Wait, your dad found the video because of you?”

“You think my dad knows how to find Youtube videos?” You can’t help but laugh. “He’s good at science and stuff, but Youtube is not his forte. So why didn’t you just tell me? I know like half a dozen if not more other superheroes. Knowing one more, wouldn’t have been that big of a deal.”

“Your dad made me promise not to tell you.”

“Well he seems to have no problem telling me that you have feelings for me, so why is telling me about your alter ego a big deal?” Peter’s face falls, turning red at the same time.

“He what?” You step across the room, reaching out for Peter, but dropping your hand at the last second.

“It’s not a bad thing. It honestly makes me feel so much better about the fact that I may or may not have been feeling quite similarly about you. But I didn’t want to be that girl that had feelings for the guy a year older than her.” You shrug and your hand tugging your hair forward, trying to find something to fidget with. But Peter’s hand comes up to push your hair away from your face.

“So you’re saying that if I told you I like you…” His hand rests on your cheek.

“Then I would say I like you too.”

“God, Y/N, you’re making this awful day a million times better.” And before you know it, Peter’s leaning in to place his lips on yours. Peter’s kissing you- you should be kissing him back. He takes your lack of movement as resistance and starts to lean away from you, but you wrap your arms around his neck and pull him back. You could keep kissing him until you needed air, if your phone wasn’t going off in your back pocket.

“Hold that thought.” You whisper into his lips as you pull out your phone, seeing your dad’s picture. You take a deep breath before picking up the phone. “Yes.”

“Y/N Y/M/N Stark, where the hell are you?” Tony’s voice is harsher than you’ve ever heard it.

“I didn’t even know you knew my middle name.”

“Y/N I’m in no mood for games. Where the hell are you? You didn’t ask me to go anywhere and you didn’t ask Happy to drive you. FRIDAY says you requested I don’t ask where you went so I’m giving you a chance to tell me before I just override the system. Where are you?”

“I had to run an errand.”

“And that is at what location?”

“I had to run to Peter’s.”

“Why?”

“Does it really matter? You apparently fired him, so he’s no longer your intern. He’s just my friend.”

“It matters because you are fourteen and you left the house without telling anyone which you promised you wouldn’t do. Security risk remember? I’m sending Happy to pick you up. So finish your conversation by the time he gets there.”

“Fine.”

“And know you’re grounded.”

“How is that any different than how you already make me live? I’m literally allowed to go to school and come straight home?”

“You went to a party did you not?” And you have to bite your tongue to not spoil where you actually went.

“Ugh whatever.” And you hang up the phone.

“You snuck out to come see me?” Peter asks and you look up at him in confusion. Was your phone that loud? “Spidey Senses. I can hear way more than I’m supposed to.”

“Ah. Yeah, kind of snuck out. It’s not like it was really a secret. My dad could have easily hacked my phone if he wanted to.” You run a hand through your hair before looking up at Peter. “I don’t really want to talk about my dad.”

“Ok.”

“There’s a better way we can waste the ten minutes until Happy gets here.” You smile at him, and Peter’s hands wrap around your waist.
