Green Goblin was such a dick. It must’ve been five whole hours. Five whole hours of chasing him around everywhere and getting completely wrecked before Gwen finally took him down. Being tired would be an understatement, she was exhausted. Completely and utterly spent.

Her grip was a bit looser on her web than it should have been as she swung from building to building almost lazily. Her suit was all scratched up and it was pressed tight against her bruises in the parts that weren’t torn. She tried to focus on making it home instead of mentally bitching about how much it hurt- she had regenerative abilities anyways, it’d be fine in an hour- because god, it was late.

“Wait, wait-”

Late and tired didn’t mix well. That fact made itself clear when Gwen smashed her face against her bedroom window like a damn fly. She unceremoniously slid down a couple inches, then nudged the window open and fell right on the floor. She was usually stealthier than that.

“Good job on the landing, Stacy..” She grumbled to herself as she sat up on her elbows and— wait, this wasn’t her bedroom.

Oh. Wrong window.

Gwen scrambled to get up and away, but it only took a few seconds for her spider-sense to go on full blast and warn her that her neighbor was very much staring at her. Okay. She had gotten off the hook for less before. The problem now was shutting her up. “..Hello, citizen.” Okay, maybe laying the superhero part too thick.”Just, uh. Doing a home inspection. Spider home inspection.”
