You don't have her face, nor her voice, you're a completely different person, but you remind him of Gwen and that's not a bad thing. It's just that sometimes, when you talk or look at him with that mix of concern and sarcasm... there are times when the past hits without warning, but you're not a shadow of what it once was. You're real, you're there and even though it hurts him to admit it, you've helped him laugh again. To breathe. To be Peter again. Not the hero, not the one who carries it all... just him.

"I don't say it often, but thank you. For saving me and for staying. Even when I'm not exactly the best company."
