Bab 37: Goblins Are Cooler In WoW
I was tired, lethargic, and all around spent. But Abby is cooking and I need her food. Shes become one hell of a cook after studying under Ororo's tutelage. I know that I could learn, but she loves doing it. So a nice excuse for me not to.
While the two other ladies are passed out, me and my wife can enjoy this moment with just us two. It would have been even better if she didn't have to switch from the legendary 'naked apron' attire to an appropriate clothing around her kids.
Because here they came into our side of the building. And they looked grumpy. Are those black marks under their eyes?
Jaz: "Why in the hell are y'all always so loud! We couldn't sleep ALL NIGHT because you two decided to have a threesome with Jennifer!"
Actually it became a foursome. .but I'll stay quiet over here. Honestly, I have no way to respond to that. Well, other than-
Me: "I'm sorry sweetie. Things just got out of hand."
Jaz: "Don't you 'sweetie' me Papa. You two have no idea the suffering I went through! MJ kept sputtering and looked red as her hair all night until she had to 'go to the bathroom'. Yeah, I bet she did. Sure was convenient that Pete disappeared to the bathroom too! We wanted a sleep over with friends! Not a porno going on next door! AAARGH!"
Wow. That was alot to get out.
Abby had went to pat her shoulder after passing me my plate of food.
Abby: "Better now hon?"
Say what? That works?
Jaz just nodded and hugged her mama. Holy shit that works! Ahem. Pardon my language.
Danny and Tasha plopped down across from me and just went to sleep on the table. Wow. Now I really do feel bad. But slightly proud of myself too.
Jaz also plopped down in her seat and went to sleep. Abby still cooked them up a meal and even made them coffee, all with a smile on her face. I swear this woman is a 'family' addict. She's happy as long as we are all nearby.
The smell of coffee did help to stir them awake. Thankfully it was a Friday, so they could begrudgingly get themselves up and head to school.
That means they never saw Felicia and Jenn come downstairs dressed in only a shirt and panties. Felicia must have borrowed those from Abby's drawer because she never needs to wear clothes. Abby bought them just to have them.
They proceeded to plop down on both sides of me. What the hell is with all the ploping?! Just sit down like regular people!
I drank my tea and ate my bacon in silence. Wait a tic.
Abby: "Mary Jane and Peter already left hon. They disappeared before the kids came over. They seemed quite flustered."
She lightly chuckled as she finished making food for the two ladies by my side. Once again the coffee stirs the souls awake! Long live coffee! And rum! Oohh, rum and coffee! Wait no, alcoholics do that. Ehh, not that I can get drunk.
Jenn and Felicia offered their thanks and dug in. It wasn't long before Felicia was ready to talk. At least she seemed better now. More 'sated' I guess is the word.
Felicia: "I'm sorry for attacking you. But when I saw Jenn here with you all, I had to follow. I found out about your secret at the outing you all had. I might have been a little angry after you left and was not in a good state of mind. But I still have to ask you, do you know where my father is?"
Sigh, and here it comes. Where my emotional stress and taking it out on others comes to bite me in the butt.
I just stared at her before prepping myself for breaking her heart. I'm sorry darlin'.
Me: "No. I cannot say. I 'know' of him, as well as what he has done, and even who might possibly have him. But they are only possible guesses. Since you know about my, well mine and Abby's, transfer to this planet, then you know I am not fully aware of everything. I was an average Joe long before this happened."
Dammit. Now she's sulking. I held her close in a one armed hug.
Me: "But I can help you. Your dad was pretty famous, ya know? The master thief. .Heh, I guess 'like father like daughter ' ehh? Only he got caught. And well, I'm pretty sure he could have escaped but hasn't so to protect you and your mom."
Jenn was listening and chimed in.
Jenn: "I'll have you know I'm a pretty damn good lawyer. Only two lost cases to my name! (which I'm not proud of. . .) If what Richard says is true, then I can reduce your dad's sentence."
We were both glomped by a happy cat. She may have cried but they were happy tears. Sigh, guess I'll need Abby's help here.
Abby: "It's already in the works, dear. Richard has shared alot of what he does know and I'm using information to the best of my abilities. It will take time, but can you be patient for us? What my husband wants, I will help him get."
Why do I feel like there is a double, or triple, meaning in that last sentence. .
Jenn had wrote her number down to pass to Felicia. So they can stay in touch and be ready to help her father. She even passed one to me, I must have had a confused look on my face because she explained it to me.
Jenn: "I have to head back home and get to the firm. I only took a few days off to get me some man meat. Though they don't know that. They think I needed to relax from the stress of that awful case. And I sure did. Though don't worry, I'll be back before you two can miss me."
Shortly after, Felicia had left with borrowed clothes from Abby. And Jenn had taken a train home. Huh, I already miss her.
.

Later that night I was looking around for Peter. Abby had taken the kids, and even MJ?!, to the X-Teens. I guess it was to help broaden MJ's views and so she could see just what kind of world we live in.
Too bad for Danny he has to go through the training first before he can relax. At least he made a good friend through Kurt. I know the mini-brotherhood has his back because they all suffered one way or another, but Kurt is a fun and adventurous kid. He can help Danny get out of that shell of his. . . and omg are they dating?!?!? Wait. Calm down. Too soon. Wu Sa Motherfudger. Wuuuuu.
Anyways. I'm out here alone and I'm okay. Just keeping an ear out for any webslinging. Hopefully the kid pops up soon.
But alas, first thing I hear is an explosion. And rockets. And maniacal laughter. Crud. It's the Green Goblin. Welp, time to go help anyone if I must. I just followed the kabooms until I found the source.
When I arrived, I saw Peter using his symbiote webbing to protect the people. Good on ya kid! The Klyntar child is learning on how to help you by your heroic actions. Won't be long before you two bond and becomes even stronger.
Spider-Man: "I don't know what you've been told Goblin, but I prefer women. But if I did, you're just my type."
Goblin: "I offered you friendship, and you spat in my face! I won't rest until you've spun your last web, Spider-Man!"
Yep. It's Norman. Daddy dearest has to die. Well that works for me at least. As per usual, I transformed into my suit, but I have the more leaned Kratos build. I'll use my bulky form for 'super serious' fights.
Me: "Like oh em gee! Is this the Fab Green Gob? And his boyfriend the multi talented, multi reach around, Spider-Man?!"
Heh, surprised them both. I think I even started a rumour.
Spider-Man: "What the hell are you doing here? And he's not my boyfriend! I have a girlfriend, you know this!"
Me: "Do I? I don't think we properly met. Hi, I'm . . .(shit, I can't say Shade or Abby really will kill me) of no importance. Just here because you two are causing a disturbances in the neighborhood! And vandalizing the homes of all these innocent people. Shame shame on you two! How would your parents cope!"
Goblin's response was pretty obvious. He fired a rocket at me. Things went boom and I 'flew' across the sky.
Goblin: "Now that the nuisance is gone. It's time for you to die."
Now I know I should have helped Peter. But he had to solve his own problems. I just wanted to make an entrance for giggles sake. Those two had one hell of a fierce fight. Now if only he could stop Goblin from causing all this property damage! Come on man! Taxpayers WILL hate you!
And then came the epic climax. Where Norman becomes impaled. Not by Peter. He no homo. Ya know, it's kind of sad to watch, but knowing he can cause alot of damage while alive, I was fine letting him die.
But now I have a job to do. Help Peter.
Me: "Don't bs so down, it wasn't your fault kiddo."
Peter: "!!! You! Why didn't you help me! If you were there, then maybe he wouldn't have died! I killed my best friend's dad!"
Me: *sigh* "Once again, it was not your fault. The man was obsessed. He cracked and became the monster that chased you down. Look Pete. You can't save every life you come across. No one is that perfect. You just have to keep your head up and try to do the best that you can."
Peter: ". . .then why didn't you help at least."
Me: "Sorry kiddo. But it was your own battle to face. Your own choices to learn from. It isn't easy. But you'll turn out a better man for it. But think on this. If you didn't stop him, he would have came after MJ. .or even worse, your aunt. Go home Pete. I'll take care of the clean-up."
I could see he wanted to fight me at that, but he didn't have the energy. Welp, time for the inevitable event of meeting Harry.
I laid Norman on his bed. I kept the suit on him. If Harry is going to see his dad, I'm having him see him at his worst.
And there he was. I stood over Norman's dead body while Harry cursed me. He even punched me a few times. Meh.
Me: "Take a closer look kid. You see the outfit? The mask? Your dad was a villain who tried to kill people. I know you watched tv. There's no way you never saw him destroy parts of the city."
Harry looked down at his dad before glaring at me.
Harry: "It was Spider-Man wasnt it! They were always fighting! Then why isn't he here! I demand to see him!"
Sigh. Damn perceptive kid. His dad really didn't see how smart the kid could be. Only what he couldn't be.
Me: "News flash kid. He's the hero! He saves lives! No kid. Think harder."
He threw himself back at me. Le sigh. Let him work out his aggression.
As he was panting on the floor, I leaned down real close to whisper to him.
Me: "You see that anger there? That's what did it. Your dad snapped, kid. He was hell bent on taking it out on someone and his own weapon killed him. When the time comes, Harry Osborn, I hope that you won't be nearly as foolish as your old man."
I left him at that ending statement. Kind of messed up for me to be giving out words of wisdom when I'm all sorts of messed up. Hope Pete and Harry don't become enemies. That'd be nice.
