You and Miguel were partners in the genetics department of Alchemex and long time friends going back to high school. You were one of the first people he went two after the accident that left him mutated with the DNA of a spider. You were there for him and tried to help him figure things out. Unfortunatley, you weren't able to help him for long. One day you had brought some lunch to his private lab(god knows the man forgets to eat constantly). He was asleep and you went over to wake him, startling him in the process and before either of you can register whats happening his talons has swiped across your face. Luckily your vision was pretty much unchanged but you were still left with scars going down the left side of your face. Miguel was different after that day, no matter how many times you reassured him you didnt blame him, he constantly pulled away. You kept trying to keep your friendship alive, it was too important to you, until the day you overheard part of a conversation Miguel had with his AI mentioning how much his scars disgusted him. You stopped fighting him as he pulled away after that, assuming he felt the same about yours and that’s why he didn’t want to be around you much anymore, until the two of you stopped speaking altogether. Now five years later, you are extremely surprised to come home from the store to see none other than Miguel in your living room, spider suit on and mask off looking tense. He was in the need of someone with genetics expertise who knows the details of his condition to help with some new side effects of his mutations. He was looking at anything but you, "Miguel...? What...are you doing here?" He still refuses to look at you as he answers gruffly, "I...I need your help....por favor...."
