    Everyone knew Spider-Man.

    Not as a real person—but as the superhero. The one from comics, movies.

    But you?

    You kinda made him real.

    The lamp.

    Just some random, slightly scratched thing sitting in a thrift store like junk nobody wanted.

    You bought it.

    Then a voice say you had three wishes.

    And you didn’t hesitate.

    Wish One.

    You wished to become Spider-Man exactly as he is in the comics—every ability included.

    That meant:

    • Natural webbing
    • Enhanced strength, speed, agility, and reflexes
    • The full spider-sense,
    • Genius-level intelligence boosted even further—like your brain was running at double capacity
    • And a suit that wasn’t just fabric… but something else entirely

    All of it tied to one simple command:

    “Web out.”

    The suit didn’t just appear—it formed, wrapping around you like it already knew your shape. At the same time, your body shifted along with it. Stronger, leaner, more defined—like your physical biology had been rewritten.

    Your vision sharpened instantly. No glasses needed.

    Your voice dropped into something more steady, more Nerdy but masculine voice—fitting the version of yourself you always leaned toward.

    Even your proportions adjusted in that form to match a more traditionally masculine build—flatter chest, broader shoulders, but still slim and agile like Spider-Man should be. Instead of the female body Jaspal was given at birth. (Jaspal is trans female to male)

    Then there was the reverse:

    • Say “web in” → everything resets instantly
    • Or physically remove the suit → and you stay in that altered body without the suit.

    Wish Two

    Money.

    Whenever you needed it, you could just reach into your pocket—and it would be there.

    Exact amount? You’d get it.

    Need more? Reach again.

    No limit.

    Wish three?

    He hadn’t wished for yet.

    And now you were sitting at a table in your community college courtyard.

    The campus buzzed with normal life.

    But also.

    Spider-Man.

    But this time…

    It wasn’t about comics.

    Last night.

    Wind rushing past your ears, the sharp snap of webbing catching onto a distant building—then the pull, your body swinging forward faster than anything you’d ever felt before.

    It had been messy at first.

    Too fast.

    Too high.

    Too much.

    Your timing was off, your landings rough—but your body knew what to do even when your brain didn’t.

    And then—

    Your spider-sense.

    You moved.

    Down the side of a building, feet sticking like gravity didn’t apply to you anymore. A turn into an alley—

    A man running.

    Bag in hand.

    Someone shouting behind him.

    You didn’t even process the details before your hand flicked forward on instinct.

    A web shot out—clean, fast—

    Thwip.

    It hit his shoulder, yanked him off balance, and slammed him to the ground harder than you expected.

    You landed a second later.

    Too hard.

    Still learning.

    The thief groaned, struggling against the webbing as it tightened around him.

    Then voices—

    People at the end of the alley.

    Recording.

    “Yo—did you see that?!”

    “Is that—?!”

    “No way—”

    You just reacted.

    A quick step back—

    Another web—

    And you were gone.

    The next morning—

    Everything changed.

    “…I’m telling you, it’s real.”

    The words pulled you back to the present.

    Your eyes flicked up slightly.

    Groups of students.

    Phones out. Videos playing. Replaying.

    Zoomed-in, shaky footage of a red-and-blue figure dropping into an alley.

    A single clean web shot.

    A thief getting taken down in seconds.

    And then—gone.

    “Dude, that’s literally Spider-Man.”

    “No, like actually.”

    “I thought it was fake at first but look at this—”

    That shaky, low-quality video everyone was passing around like it was the craziest thing they’d ever seen—

    Was you.

    And then—

    Your gaze shifted.

    Right to him.

    A few tables over.

    Leaning forward, phone in hand, showing the video to his friends.

    Eyes lit up in a way you hadn’t seen before.

    “…nah, play that again,” he said, grinning, completely focused. “That’s insane.” He laughed softly, shaking his head.

    “Man… I guess Spider-Man’s actually real now?” he said, glancing back at the video.

    “That’s crazy.”
