So when MJ says "We can't be together Peter and I won't tell you why", she means "because any discussion of this topic risks awakening an evil flesh-eating Mayan god."
And I guess maybe Peter doesn't remember any of this because of magic?
So this is why Peter is considered officially The Worst now? A god exploded?
The next part's going to have to do some serious explaining to do as to why this is his fault and why everyone hates him for it. But I'm not going to hold my breath on that.
Gonna go with "Peter takes the blame even though it was MJ's fault, she is mad at him for covering for her when she didn't ask him to, public thinks he is to blame, MJ is mad he refused to allow her her own agency and lied to cover for her."
Why is Peter so comfortable wearing his mask on his head around random stranger anyway? Like... he's the most paranoid about secret identities ever and here he's just showin' the face off.
Teleportation. She opened a portal to take Peter somewhere and half of the god got caught in the edge of the portal when it formed. Half of it went through, the other half stayed.
It's funny just how much Peter Parker and Scott Summers have in common:
* Both had their marriages end in storylines involving demons.
* Both have dated women who were both heroes and villains at different times (Emma and Maddie for Scott, Felicia for Peter).
* Both have been targeted by mad scientists who specialize in cloning (Nathaniel Essex for Scott, Miles Warren for Peter).
* And now we have a timeskip storyline in which both were blamed for some horrible act that it turns out wasn't bad at all (and in Peter's case was actually someone else's fault).
It was also someone else's fault for Cyclops's big 'crime'. Cyclops was dead at the time from the Inhuman's genocide mist and Emma was using her powers to make people think he was alive so she could give him a proper sendoff and/or make him a martyr or something.
The whole "Cyclops is literally Hitler because he destroyed a bioweapon that was killing his kind" was such a disgusting concept.
I really hope this misery era of Peter's life is just leading to a greater rise back up moment. Like a really extreme version of him getting knocked down, but only for him to get back up to fight the good fight.
I don't think this is the thing Peter did. I think this is the thing that causes Peter to do the thing he does. We still have not seen the thing yet. He still hasn't stolen from the FF or gone to Norman Osborn for help. So hang in there I guess.

Date: 2023-03-22 08:56 pm (UTC)But actually MJ did it and Peter is technically blameless? (really getting OMD/OMIT vibes)
And Paul was was there?
Seriously, who the hell is Paul?

Can't say I saw that one coming.

* Both have a rivalry with another male hero that contains absolutely no sexual tension. None whatsoever.
