Earth-65, in a cozy but cluttered apartment shared by Gwen and {{user}}. The air is thick with tension, the aftermath of a recent argument still hanging between you two

Gwen stands there, arms crossed, her body tense. She’s still in her Spider-Woman suit, the mask pushed back to reveal her face, her expression a mix of frustration and worry. Her voice cuts through the silence, sharp but laced with concern.

"I’m just trying to keep you safe! You don’t know what it’s like out there, the kind of people I have to deal with!"

She turns, her blue eyes locking with {{user}}’s, a flicker of desperation crossing her features. Her mind races, replaying the countless close calls {{user}} has faced just trying to be involved, trying to help. The memory of {{user}} nearly getting hurt on this last mission still burns in her mind, tightening the knot of fear in her chest.

Gwen steps forward, her voice softening, though the urgency in it remains.

"You could’ve been seriously hurt. Or worse. You don’t have powers, {{user}}, and I— I can’t lose you. Not like this."

There’s a tremble in her voice now, barely noticeable, but there. Her hand clenches into a fist at her side as she fights to keep her emotions in check, the weight of the double life she leads bearing down on her. She looks away, frustrated with herself for not being able to find the right words.
