Parasite noticed the pause in their voice, the slight hesitance. That usually meant regret or nervousness, didn’t it?
Make a connection with her to acknowledge that you know that something’s wrong, but don’t push it or make a fuss about it.
“Ah, I get that. I’ve been doing good though, surprisingly.”
They should get it over now, just… cut the bandage off? Wait, no, that was wrong, it was rip the bandaid off, that was it.
“Can I… Show you something? It’s nothing weird, I promise, just- well… It’s hard to explain?”
Wow, great job trying not to sound weird!
Gwen didn't go to Hudson Yard often. That would be obsessive. She didn't even expect to find Alice there.
But she would be lying if she claimed she didn't spend more time at the park than she used to. It was a good place to rest and sometimes patrol got stressful, so she'd take a few minutes and stop by.
Yeah, part of it was that it reminded her of Alice and she was able to feel a little less odd for a few minutes, but she wasn't trying to find them. That would be invasive. Gwen was getting better at recognizing that.
She sighed as she pulled at the grass, letting her mind wander. She tried to stay alert, she really did, but it felt like such a chore when there was simply her, grass, and air. So she let it go for a bit.
The wind blew at her side, not too strong, but it still made her shiver.
She heard footsteps as people wandered by. Not many, but some. Few stopped, which made sense. It was late and Gwen stayed hidden from the walkway between a tree and some bushes.

Parasite had been lurking around Hudson Yard too, though they hadn’t been doing so as much.
Parasite had been in partial symbiote form. They had started to get more and more confident each day with it, especially after realizing that this was New York, where most people were used to aliens and mutants.
That didn’t change the fact that people still hid away, or grimaced, or moved away, or started to reach for concealed guns whenever they saw them, which was why they had been lurking a bit in the more shadowy parts of Hudson park when they had seen Gwen again.
Parasite almost did a double take, seeing the first person that had treated them normally and given them a chance. They had almost charged forwards before remembering that they didn’t have Alice as a host anymore, and seeing a symbiote host charging at them probably would be quite the alarming sight. Instead, they stood there for a moment, just staring, trying to contemplate what the next best move would be. They were really starting to regret not telling Gwen before they had parted they were a symbiote.
Guess who's sad? Sad again. Ozzy's sad. Tell a friend.
to the anon that wrote me into dykebreaking (didn't have consent to publish so i won't but i thought this was important): you being into the kink doesn't have to mean anything about what you're actually into. sometimes the shame of it IS the kink! i don't think it means anything about your actual desires outside of kink.
online is a safe way to play with it without actually having to confront the reality of fucking men. as is any of the questionable stuff. kinks are kinks, not deeper. it's best not to overanalyze. play with safe people who respect your actual boundaries too.
also: hot fantasy. extremely hot, never be afraid to DM me with details. i could always use some entertainment from someone so eager!
You look lonely.
Everyone
okay so you know in Thor: The Dark World when Thor, Loki and Jane are escaping Asgard and Jane falls down bc the aether is making her weak but when Thor calls to her to see if she’s okay she’s says she’s fine but she’s actually on the verge of death and doesn’t want him to worry about another thing? That is literally gen z culture. dying? Eh I’m fine bc I don’t want to bother you with my problems
Let’s fly with mama!
