01 : video 🕷 daemon : happyd
[ The video feed starts off shaky, a close-up of the front of a red t-shirt taking up most of the screen while the muffled sounds of sight struggle are heard -- although, nothing serious, it's more fumbling and clearly frustrated sighs. ]
Okay. [ It's the voice of a teenage boy! ] Is thing working? Is it on?
Yes. [ The daemon replies in a familiar older male's voice, sounding clearly Done with Peter Parker. ] Now back up, you're way too close to me.
Yeah, sure. [ He backs up, and who would have guessed that the voice of a teenager was coming from a teenager? ]
Uhm. Okay. [ He straightens his shirt out, clearly he isn't used to addressing any large groups of people... even if he can't actually see them ]
Hi! I'm Peter! [ He gives a quick wave of his hand. ] And, wow, this is a pretty long way from Queens, am I right? [ Awkward laughter. ]
Listen, kid, hurry up and get to the point, okay?
Right. Anyway, I was wondering if anyone has any special skills, or abilities, or hidden talents. I once knew someone who was double jointed in their shoulders, they could turn their arms in all these weird directions
[ And, then he starts attempting to do the same..... but, very unsuccessfully. It just ends up looking odd. ]
Okay, they get it, quit it before you hurt yourself.
Okay, okay. [ Nod. Nod. ] So.... Yeah. [ He claps both of his hands together. ] If you do, is that something normal where you're from, or do you have to keep it a secret? Did someone teach you, or was it something you were born with?
Or is it the result of a run in with a radioactive insect?
[ Well, that's oddly specific.... ]
Alright, enough questions already, these folks have things to do. Wrap it up.
Fine, fine. turn off. End transmission. Stop--
[ The video then ends abruptly. ]

Wait wait wait. So the world ended because of some other alien thing destroyed it?
[ Really, how many aliens were out there trying to do this?! ]
And now we're here and we're supposed to fight them and then our world will just go back to normal?
[ This sounds like the perfect moment to yell something like "Avengers assemble!" and Peter Parker is here for it. ]
OK. Yeah. What should we do then? See if the others ended up somewhere? We can all regroup and figure out a plan of attack, right?

HAVEN'T SEEN ANY OF THE OTHER AVENGERS AROUND, BUT I'M KEEPING MY EYE OUT. YOU GOT IT, KIDDO. THAT IS THE PLAN.
