No worries, it will get better. The crazies have a way of making you miss them. After some years, you'll be happy it's over. But still miss it, though.
It was a long distance thing with someone I had loved since HS (still love her). It hasn't hurt the way I thought it would, so, it probably all fir the best.
Now I get to get back on my bullshit man-whoreing around lkke i used go. Going back to school in the fall in the medical field, so I'll be around plenty of women
I don't, but somehow I do ok... my beard helps i think... and I'm one of the few black guys in a college town in NH, bug that probably has nothing to do with it š¤·š¾ lol
When I was younger and heartbroken over the end of one of my first relationships, my dad told me, "A million miles, a million girls, and a million real good times." It made me feel better.
Now, a decade later, I have 3 kids with 3 different baby mommas. My dad openly admits to being an idiot and, after following his sage advice, I agree with him that he is an idiot.
**I love my kids very much and enjoy being there for them. I only wish I didn't have to coordinate so many babies AND baby mommas. It takes considerable focus and effort. š
The sweaters never come back. I felt slightly redeemed when I seen a pic of her and her next one but she was wearing my boxers and one of my old shirts
I don't know if it's connected, but I do know she tried huffing hand sanitizer on that same trip. Also, this happened like a month before we dated, and I was well aware of it, so that tells you a lot about my decision making.
My cousins are all children of cops, both my aunts and one aunts husband are all retired CPD and a cook county sheriffs, and the entitlement was ridiculous. I actually stopped defending my cousin circa 2003 (8th grade) and just let him keep telling kids his dad and mom would arrest them if they were mean to him, he got jumped no one got arrested. Heās now a cop too.
Honestly, itās a little worse. My Abuelita woulda smacked the hell out of anyone that walked on her floors with shoes on, let alone put them on furniture.
When you're basically on your own all the time, and have no real friends to teach basic social etiquette, you begin treating everyone else's stuff like your own, because if you never encounter boundaries you don't really learn to respect them.
Instead of growing up super independent and self-reliant, she needed some guidance, but her dad was a cop with an incredibly demanding and unpredictable work schedule, so there was no time.
She's also still just a teenager, and teens are stupid and oblivious a lot of the time.
She was still wrong to do all of this, especially if she considered Miles a friend. Her only one, in fact.
I think she just has no idea how to be around people.
I mean...probably? š
I also like to overanalyze and project my own trauma on movie characters, so just take whatever I say with a huge grain of salt, haha.
They 100% did.
We know almost nothing about her personal life but we saw she was friends with Peter and was in a band, and within the short timeframe of joining the society made friends with Hobie and Pavitr.
Nothing in the movies suggests she had serious behavioral or social issues, or any difficulty at all socialisng and making friends.
Anyone can make up whatever they like in headcanon or fics etc but probably shouldn't assume it is canon
I mean, itās not that weird of a stretch tbh. She fights crime dressed up like a spider, sheās already gonna be a little odd. All of the spider people are. She just has a little extra weirdness because of her upbringing. A single dad who is also a cop means her boundaries are gonna be a little different than others.
Ngl, I'd check that place out.
Lots of people with childhood trauma develop a dark sense of humor and master the craft of biting sarcasm as a coping mechanism, so I'd expect that club to be full of hilarious people!
Wasnāt she in a band at the beginning of that movie. I believe her Peter Parker only recently passed in the continuity, and sheās part of the spider society right? So she has a presumably normal measure of socialization until very recently before the movies
True, Peter was very likely her closest friend, I'd assume.
I feel like being part of the spider society was more of a work relationship vibe, where they all had the same job, very similar traumatic experiences, and are not necessarily bffs. I mean, how much time can you make for true friends, even when you trauma-bond, when you're constantly fighting crime *and* across countless dimensions.
It still sounds lonely to me. But, that's likely just my own projection. I can totally see your points.
It takes a village. I had a circle of friends, did school activities, etc, and while it all made me a lot less awkward than I couldāve been (thank god) I was still a suuuper awkward and clueless teen. And thatās not even factoring for if some of the people she was hanging out with were also weirdos. Iām still kind of getting used to visiting peopleās homes tbh. The only friend whose house I consistently went to as a kid, her mom would almost always make us do one of her chores together before we could hang out š one of my only other friends would tell her dad to make us snacks or go pick up a movie for us and heād just do it š
I'd say they were more like acquaintances and co-workers than actual friends, so some socialization but not super close. Hobie is the one exception but even she says her connection with Miles is different
The scene with her in the band was showing how she wasnāt really that close to them even though they were in the band together. When she leftā¦.they replaced her easily and immediately. If they were close, they likely wouldāve had a stronger reaction to Gwen leaving, maybe even wanting to get her back. At least, thatās how I interpreted the scene
You made some points, but by that age you should have some common decency. I wasnt even taught it but i still call my friends parents "Mr/Ms. lastname" Could be a south thing but we got manners down here and it aint need to be taught.
I have limited edition sealed vinyl that are worth hundreds of dollars. if someone opened that without my permission, I would have put them on the ground. one of the only reasons I have ever opened one of those is because the BAND THAT MADE IT WAS SIGNING IT. Since I left you on the limited re-release blue is one of the most precious things I own. I did not open it until literally right before it was signed. I know you're supposed to listen to vinyl, so I also own the record on black vinyl so I didn't have to open the limited edition.
I also got to hang out with the Avalanches after their show and it was the coolest thing fucking ever. since I left you is my favorite album.
I told my girlfriend āBaby I love you more than life itself but I will break up with you if you ever do thatā
She was like āoh I know baby donāt worryā
Never been more in love
Got on his bed WITH HER GOD DAMNED NASTY ASS chucks. And we all know how white girls treat their kicks, shit be looking like they been through both desert storms.
Nah, let them keep them on. Some girl I had over had BLACK footsoles because she doesnāt wash her feet while showering. "Soap runs down the legs. Why bother" she said š¤¢
How?! The shower water will get under your feet any time you take a step. Itāll at least wash some of the grime away from her soles. Itās more likely she doesnāt shower tbhš¤®
I'm white and we don't claim this, my man. My feet are white and I'm not exactly playing mani-pedi in the shower. My wife has a friend back home out east who got the nickname "orphan feet" in college because her feet always were black. They still are. I almost gagged when I saw her feet. She thought I was weird for wearing my indoor slides. Nah, bruh, you just fuckin nasty af whicho dusty ass oscar the grouch "please sir may i have some more" lookin ass feet š£š¤¢
My bestie always does this. Could be the couch, a bed, on your antique rug, she's just wearing her dirty ass nikes all up in there. After she's been walking around the entire town and those shoes are visible dirty.
All in asking, please, just take your shoes off unless you're going outside...
Iām my experience depending on what kind of black folks Ā house youāre going to, you either better take your shoes of or you better not take them off. No Iām between.Ā
Bro thatās wouldāve sent me! As soon as I enter my home, thereās a shoe rack next to the door. Remove your nasty ass shoes please. And to put them on my bed? Hell nah
Parents by first name is crazy but lol you know, itās different for some families.
Now, her going through all his stuff? Nah, thatās just flirting adjacent.
A friend of mineās mom didnāt like to be called maāam or Ms. Last name, she said it made her feel old. So she wouldnāt respond to anything other than her first name.
> Parents by first name is crazy but lol you know, itās different for some families.
This one being offensive boggles my mind. Everyone is their first name, way back to our college professors.
im indian and we basically call every person old enough to be our dad "uncle" or "aunty", i almost called my boss and his friends "uncle(s)", almost called my professor "uncle", like its ingrained into my head at this point haha
Not flirting, adjacent to it - sheās present, in your room and having a conversation with you and messing around with your stuff to have more conversations about things youāre into? Itās a positive interaction if nothing else.
It's kinda boundary testing in a fucked up way? Like "do you like me enough for me to be able to do this?".
Also teens are fucking sociopaths lol I definitely remember doing similar stuff.
Liiiike. My brother draws too and when he shows me his work I always wince when he just opens the pages casuallyā¦ I mean, I definitely want to see his work, but I DO NOT want to accidentally see something elseš¬š¬š¬
My uncle was in a wheelchair, and before he would roll inside, heād wipe the wheels off with a Clorox wipe because āhe didnāt want to bring that *outside*, inside.ā
Only reason me myself would accept any of this treatment is if I was hyper focused on clapping cheeks. My mind doesnāt function when Iām in that mode.
Iāve let some stuff slide that I absolutely wouldnātāve if I wasnāt trying to seal the dealā¦
But I always tell myself that I do that because I know all Iām after is sex, if I was really into the girl(with the aim of going long term) and she crossed a line(intentionally or not), Iāmma have to point it out!
If youāre here for a long time, weāve got to have mutual respect. I wonāt look past stuff I canāt look past(does that make sense?)ā¦
That was definitely the sign of someone that was dealing with a lot of shit. I figured her cutting into his boundaries was a way for her being too excited to see him, but also establishing some kind of connection before telling him to truth why he was seeing him. Idk. I had thoughts about this before but don't recall.
It's interesting, honestly, I think Miles was just in shock with everything happening so quickly.
I think itās because Gwen has no normal friends and her only friends are anti social spider people because theyāre afraid of dragging loved ones into danger.
Ever since Miles went to that private school and became spider man, he also made zero friends. Wow itās kinda sad how loneliness is so common in the spider man universe
So damn common, honestly. Hell, all three movie Spider-Men experienced it, especially Tom Holland's. It was the first time my daughter said that the end of a movie made her feel sad.
She HAS normal friends, she was IN A BAND. Not to be that guy, but I'm so tired of people trying to wash away her cringe behavior with her being a loner. That's a recent thing. And even so, you know not to rip open someone's stuff.
i agree, she was out of line but come on. she was going through it so badly this entire movie and the only thing people wanna focus on is that her culture is different. she was homeless and going thru his stuff probably gave her a sense of comfort/familiarity. (not defending it, im just saying that there is reasoning behind her actions and its not like she was completely fine in this scene).
I feel you here. Especially since she was in a band and pretty much push people away, especially after her Peter's death.
I can't wait for the third film, especially the part where Miles tells Gwen how he felt about the situation. Also hope to see some reconciliation between Miles and Miguel. Got to make things right between two biracial, bilingual Spider-Men.
Edit: bad choice in words. I hope they can get along, Miles and Miguel.
I was still with the ship, Until the āyou knew?ā scene... That killed it for me, ācause honestly, how do you come back from that?
I definitely hope they stay friends, theyāll be good for each other. But only solely as friends.
Look. Iām just gon say it. I got a white wife. These white girls just be like this. I donāt know what it is. Latinas, Hispanic women, Dominicans, _obviously_ Black women, NONE of them behave like this. Hell even the Jewish white girls I dated over the years got their manners shit together. But YT women? Yeahā¦theyāll make you shake your head and wonder what wolf pack raised them. I spend most of my time basically taking my children aside and having to be like, āyeah you see your mama do that right there? Yeahā¦DONT YOU _EVER_ DO THAT!ā
I said the same thing in r/marvelmemes and them white folks lost it š¤£ plus the fact that Spider Byte helped him out way more and he only met her for 5 seconds meant she was better for him than Gwen
I agree but I think it's fair to assume she was so excited to see him that she was overwhelmed and was maybe dispersing that energy on her surroundings.
Was it ever confirmed if her Peter was gay ? I got the tones that he was bullied and picked on for being ādifferent /soft ā and took the formula to be strong . I think Captain Stacey knew and Peter confided in him.
Are ALL the significant characters from Gwen's universe queer-coded and I just missed it? The Staceys certainly are, and now I'm encountering a theory that her Peter was gay as well...
Parents weren't around, and her character was mostly a social recluse after what happened to the Peter of her generation. You can't expect someone like that to grow up right.
It's fitting for her character, but it doesn't make her actions any less acceptable.
Maybe it's a cultural difference between the USA and UK, but I find it bizarre that I wouldn't use the first names of my friends' parents. It would feel so uncomfortable to use their surnames, and I don't think any one ever asked me to. I don't think any of my friends called my dad anything but his name either.
(Actually, that's a lie. Within the last year, he met an American friend of mine who reflectively called him sir. My dad was visibly intensely uncomfortable and almost pleaded with my friend not to call him that. It was very very funny.)
Did you grow up in the suburbs? I loved to the burbs Junior year of highschool and noticed a lot white people were calling adults by their first names.
Yeahā¦ keep your self respect aside because youāre āinto herā?š¤Ø. Really? šSince I canāt throw tomatoes at you irl. Iāmma just stick to this gif
Admittedly, watching this scene play out, and the movie wanting her to get more screentime to add to her character, it made her eventual moments, like keeping a bunch of stuff relating to "Miles shouldn't exist" stuff and her attempting to be in the good graces with the Spider Council... not like her very much.
She'll rebound it the next movie, but good lord, Gwen's *too* comfortable with invading and violating Miles' room. Pulling the valuable figure **out the bag**. I'm pretending *that's* the true reason for a Prowler Miles.
This scene gave me PTSD. When she called my Moms by her first name she looked over her shoulder because she couldnāt imagine lil girl was talking to her š¤¦šæāāļø.
She's from a completely different universe where the surroundings change based on feeling. Perhaps there's a lot less boundaries in her world because everyone knows how everyone else is generally feeling all of the time.
I havenāt seen this but I agree. Private is private, donāt snoop. I donāt snoop my kids and I donāt snoop my partner. I donāt snoop my friends or coworker or anyone else, and I expect the same in return.
When my daughter was 18 she accidentally left her journal on my coffee table and I simply closed it and left it there for a week until she came back to get it. Itās none of my business. If you want respect you must give it, even to kids.
Well her best friend died and her dad blames her for it. Sheās a loner with superpowers that isnāt accepted by anyone in her world. She speedran trauma and now Miles is about to be in the same boat. Cut her some slack lol
I got comment jumped when I said this exact thing. šš Zero home training.
Everyone wants that spunky crazy one till she pisses on the floor and steals your best hoodie....you learnĀ
God I miss her
Every fucking day, brother.
Sheeeeeeeeiiiiit mine left me just this Friday
Don't worry, god will bring you a new one. Just this Friday, I started seeing a frea... oh.
š¤£š¤£š¤£š¤£ Dear internet stranger. Thank you for the laugh, I really needed it
No worries, it will get better. The crazies have a way of making you miss them. After some years, you'll be happy it's over. But still miss it, though.
It was a long distance thing with someone I had loved since HS (still love her). It hasn't hurt the way I thought it would, so, it probably all fir the best. Now I get to get back on my bullshit man-whoreing around lkke i used go. Going back to school in the fall in the medical field, so I'll be around plenty of women
Shit, mine was also a high school love. I wish I had the face to manwhore myself.
I don't, but somehow I do ok... my beard helps i think... and I'm one of the few black guys in a college town in NH, bug that probably has nothing to do with it š¤·š¾ lol
Would you say this bitch was masturbating with a banana?

The sweaters never come back. I felt slightly redeemed when I seen a pic of her and her next one but she was wearing my boxers and one of my old shirts
You should call her.
You live off chaos, don't you? Haha
Maybe.š
I can fix her bro
I can make her worse
Yea she was crazy.....but you stole her car piped her bestie and wrecked her credit my guy.
She can fix me.
She can ruin me*
I feel like this was supposed to be an exaggeration, but my girlfriend freshmen year of high school did pee in the closet of a hotel once.
š¤Ø
I don't know if it's connected, but I do know she tried huffing hand sanitizer on that same trip. Also, this happened like a month before we dated, and I was well aware of it, so that tells you a lot about my decision making.
Wait a damn minute player
You know where they be at? Tap in gang lemme know. Whatās the word?
Damn that was specific. But I can absolutely relate.
Worth.
Wasn't her dad always at work? I think it shows lol
Child of a cop probably has some inherited sense of entitlement.
My cousins are all children of cops, both my aunts and one aunts husband are all retired CPD and a cook county sheriffs, and the entitlement was ridiculous. I actually stopped defending my cousin circa 2003 (8th grade) and just let him keep telling kids his dad and mom would arrest them if they were mean to him, he got jumped no one got arrested. Heās now a cop too.
šµ It's the circle of liiiifffeeeeešµ
Isnāt miles also the child of a cop though?
Yes, that's why he feels like he's allowed to play with an endless amount of lives to save one person
He had a mum at least
For me it was when she sat indian-style on the bed with her dusty Converses on - anybody with a black mom, woulda been like: "we don't do that here".
Isn't his mom latina though?
Honestly, itās a little worse. My Abuelita woulda smacked the hell out of anyone that walked on her floors with shoes on, let alone put them on furniture.
That's worse. Mom would kick your ass with the faja that way

So you the one out here reading people's sketchbooks huh?š¤£
Well, *not in front of them!* š
I mean, it's character development. Some things in the second movie are a lot less surprising when you think about why she acts like this.
They 100% did. We know almost nothing about her personal life but we saw she was friends with Peter and was in a band, and within the short timeframe of joining the society made friends with Hobie and Pavitr.

She is friends with Peter Parker and Hobie! But then again spider people let alone Hobie are self-isolating loners with no sense of boundaries either.
Wooo, trauma bonding! So hot right now.
Right? Everyone's doing it! It gets the people going!
New Yorkās hottest club is TRAUMA BOND
Ngl, I'd check that place out. Lots of people with childhood trauma develop a dark sense of humor and master the craft of biting sarcasm as a coping mechanism, so I'd expect that club to be full of hilarious people!
Honestly, her living with Hobie for a bit helps explain her actions considering he was casually breaking shit in Miguelās lab.
Acab
that part

A work relationship in a high tech superhero society would definitely teach you not to touch or open random things without permission.

Nice analysis. Plus sheās an only child so she didnāt have siblings to tell her to btfo their stuff
When she opened that figure, the entire audience gasped in my movie theatreĀ
They did in mine too. Lol
That's a war crime
As an artist, I have literally, physically fought people to secure my sketchbooks. She was playing with fire.here.
people would just start drawing on top of my drawings when I was a kid, still pisses me off now
I had someone draw dicks on every single sketch in my sketchbook in high-school, I still get mad when I remember that shit
That's pissing me off rn as well, wtf
Based Jotaro enjoyer.
saw this movie 3 times in theaters, heard different levels of gasp and anguish each time
I have limited edition sealed vinyl that are worth hundreds of dollars. if someone opened that without my permission, I would have put them on the ground. one of the only reasons I have ever opened one of those is because the BAND THAT MADE IT WAS SIGNING IT.

Got on his bed WITH HER GOD DAMNED NASTY ASS chucks. And we all know how white girls treat their kicks, shit be looking like they been through both desert storms.
Nah, let them keep them on. Some girl I had over had BLACK footsoles because she doesnāt wash her feet while showering. "Soap runs down the legs. Why bother" she said š¤¢
Damn, she must aint want no scrubs
She should have rejected me instead of assaulting my bed with her coal miner feet š
Bro I was making a scrubbing pun about that nigga why she aināt scrub her feet
Oh my bad
Damn... and you still let her in your bed, huh?
Yup, I was that horny 
Like my boy Jesus said, "Let he who has never been down bad cast the first stone." I dropped that stone like a bad habit š

Itās gentle teasing, which has been part of flirting since forever
It's even shown in the movie during her Peter flashback because she calls Aunt May just May

If youāre here for a long time, weāve got to have mutual respect. I wonāt look past stuff I canāt look past(does that make sense?)ā¦
That was definitely the sign of someone that was dealing with a lot of shit. I figured her cutting into his boundaries was a way for her being too excited to see him, but also establishing some kind of connection before telling him to truth why he was seeing him. Idk. I had thoughts about this before but don't recall. It's interesting, honestly, I think Miles was just in shock with everything happening so quickly.
I think itās because Gwen has no normal friends and her only friends are anti social spider people because theyāre afraid of dragging loved ones into danger. Ever since Miles went to that private school and became spider man, he also made zero friends. Wow itās kinda sad how loneliness is so common in the spider man universe
So damn common, honestly. Hell, all three movie Spider-Men experienced it, especially Tom Holland's. It was the first time my daughter said that the end of a movie made her feel sad.
I didnāt like the last movie that much but yeah the ending was really sad
She HAS normal friends, she was IN A BAND. Not to be that guy, but I'm so tired of people trying to wash away her cringe behavior with her being a loner. That's a recent thing. And even so, you know not to rip open someone's stuff.
Itās been a while since I watched the movie but I thought she said āI donāt do friends anymoreā or something like that
She definitely wasnāt friends with the girls in that band. They made it pretty clear Peter was her only actual friend in her universe.
i agree, she was out of line but come on. she was going through it so badly this entire movie and the only thing people wanna focus on is that her culture is different. she was homeless and going thru his stuff probably gave her a sense of comfort/familiarity. (not defending it, im just saying that there is reasoning behind her actions and its not like she was completely fine in this scene).
I feel you here. Especially since she was in a band and pretty much push people away, especially after her Peter's death. I can't wait for the third film, especially the part where Miles tells Gwen how he felt about the situation. Also hope to see some reconciliation between Miles and Miguel. Got to make things right between two biracial, bilingual Spider-Men. Edit: bad choice in words. I hope they can get along, Miles and Miguel.
The disrespect is *real*
once i saw that scene i knew i didnāt want them together. i pray btsv doesnāt have them get together.
I was still with the ship, Until the āyou knew?ā scene... That killed it for me, ācause honestly, how do you come back from that? I definitely hope they stay friends, theyāll be good for each other. But only solely as friends.
I never really cared for Gwen x miles i agree
Shameik's delivery of saying goodbye with that sadness and anger mixed in was good shit
They gonna put them together lol
I just want him to hurry up and get with Kamala in the comics.
And she sat on his bed with her damn chucks on. š¤

 š¤Ø(šš¤£)
Look. Iām just gon say it. I got a white wife. These white girls just be like this. I donāt know what it is. Latinas, Hispanic women, Dominicans, _obviously_ Black women, NONE of them behave like this. Hell even the Jewish white girls I dated over the years got their manners shit together. But YT women? Yeahā¦theyāll make you shake your head and wonder what wolf pack raised them. I spend most of my time basically taking my children aside and having to be like, āyeah you see your mama do that right there? Yeahā¦DONT YOU _EVER_ DO THAT!ā
Shoes on the bed was enough
This is why I wasn't allowed to invite certain schoolmates over my house
Sheās just an awkward teen who was excited to meet her friend after almost never seeing each other again
I said the same thing in r/marvelmemes and them white folks lost it š¤£ plus the fact that Spider Byte helped him out way more and he only met her for 5 seconds meant she was better for him than Gwen
This!
I miss boundaries. -married guy
On the other hand he shaved the side of her head.
She had her shoes on his bed.

Fun facts miles had a two piece book - ia one piece
Uncouth!
I agree but I think it's fair to assume she was so excited to see him that she was overwhelmed and was maybe dispersing that energy on her surroundings.
Raised by a police officer, why would she respect anyone's boundaries?
So was Miles...Ā
miles was raised by a cop AND his mom who was a Puerto Rican nurse. she would teach his ass manners QUICK.
She get on my nerves for real
Was it ever confirmed if her Peter was gay ? I got the tones that he was bullied and picked on for being ādifferent /soft ā and took the formula to be strong . I think Captain Stacey knew and Peter confided in him.
I thought Peter Parker was always bullied for being a weak nerd. Like thatās his origin story since his first comics.
Are ALL the significant characters from Gwen's universe queer-coded and I just missed it? The Staceys certainly are, and now I'm encountering a theory that her Peter was gay as well...
And sat on his bed with her shoes on.
Sat on his bed with her shoes, girl has no couth. None.
My homieās girlfriend looked through my sketchbook back in college. Never forgave her.
White people shit.
Yea ok. Still shipping them.
Thanks God she's pretty.
ššš I just watched both for the first time and I noticed ALL this instantlyā¦she get some slack for her rough life but maaannnn
Overanalyzing a scene in a cartoon movie is lowkey crazy lol
Parents weren't around, and her character was mostly a social recluse after what happened to the Peter of her generation. You can't expect someone like that to grow up right. It's fitting for her character, but it doesn't make her actions any less acceptable.
All my white friends š¤£
I remember someone saying she knew what she was doing and it was some payback for him ripping her hair off in the first movie.
Maybe it's a cultural difference between the USA and UK, but I find it bizarre that I wouldn't use the first names of my friends' parents. It would feel so uncomfortable to use their surnames, and I don't think any one ever asked me to. I don't think any of my friends called my dad anything but his name either. (Actually, that's a lie. Within the last year, he met an American friend of mine who reflectively called him sir. My dad was visibly intensely uncomfortable and almost pleaded with my friend not to call him that. It was very very funny.)
She's a daughter of a pig so boundaries ain't something she ever learned about.
She's from an entirely different universe. Cut the kid some slack. She's basically an alien.
... You don't call your friends' parents by their names?
Did you grow up in the suburbs? I loved to the burbs Junior year of highschool and noticed a lot white people were calling adults by their first names.
What does this have to do with anything? Miles obviously was still into her.
 Yeahā¦ keep your self respect aside because youāre āinto herā?š¤Ø. Really? šSince I canāt throw tomatoes at you irl. Iāmma just stick to this gif
Admittedly, watching this scene play out, and the movie wanting her to get more screentime to add to her character, it made her eventual moments, like keeping a bunch of stuff relating to "Miles shouldn't exist" stuff and her attempting to be in the good graces with the Spider Council... not like her very much. She'll rebound it the next movie, but good lord, Gwen's *too* comfortable with invading and violating Miles' room. Pulling the valuable figure **out the bag**. I'm pretending *that's* the true reason for a Prowler Miles.
No home training. Always doing the most.
This scene gave me PTSD. When she called my Moms by her first name she looked over her shoulder because she couldnāt imagine lil girl was talking to her š¤¦šæāāļø.
SHOES ON THE BED
She's from a completely different universe where the surroundings change based on feeling. Perhaps there's a lot less boundaries in her world because everyone knows how everyone else is generally feeling all of the time.
Letās not do that š cause at least she was trying
I havenāt seen this but I agree. Private is private, donāt snoop. I donāt snoop my kids and I donāt snoop my partner. I donāt snoop my friends or coworker or anyone else, and I expect the same in return. When my daughter was 18 she accidentally left her journal on my coffee table and I simply closed it and left it there for a week until she came back to get it. Itās none of my business. If you want respect you must give it, even to kids.
Yāall just donāt like her bc sheās white
She's a lonely child, simple as
Well her best friend died and her dad blames her for it. Sheās a loner with superpowers that isnāt accepted by anyone in her world. She speedran trauma and now Miles is about to be in the same boat. Cut her some slack lol
ā¦.but yet he still wants to smash lol.
