[It's been a day or so since Peter got set up in his suite. He's not entirely sure. He'd been exposed to total information overload when he first showed up, and he needed the time to sit and let it all process. Not that doing so allowed anything to really make sense. But still. And of course with the way his body had refused to cooperate with even the simple task of listening to someone, he'd been in desperate need of some actual rest. But when he next woke up and really felt aware of his situation, only one thought really resounded.
They told him that this was an "In-Between." But Peter wasn't fooled.
Eventually he pulls himself out of bed (with a wince) and makes his way over to the console in his suite. It doesn't take long for Peter to figure out how it works, and as soon as he's got it running, he's turning on the audio feed. He's sure he's still looking pretty beaten up and he doesn't want to alarm anyone, after all. This doesn't feel like a good time for sympathy from total strangers. And "In-Between" or no, keeping his identity a secret was second nature. When he speaks, he's trying to be slow and careful about what he says-- and at the same time, there's a nervousness in his voice along with that slight strain caused by his injuries.]
Um... Hi, everyone. I, uh-- Not to sound ungrateful to the- the people who brought me over here and explained everything, but. Uh. Just wondering if there's somewhere I can go for, y'know, fresh clothes. And.. And maybe some clean bandages...? Or ice packs... Y'know, just-- any stuff like that, that would actually be awesome to get...
[There's a brief pause, during which he can probably be heard fidgeting awkwardly.]
And I... I get that I'm-- we're all stuck here. For like, forever. But-- [He stops again, breath catching. Somebody just level with me. Seriously. Just admit that this is-- some kind of after life and that's why we can't leave.] ... Never mind.
Clean clothes would really help me out a lot, thanks.

[There's a brief, abrupt pause.] ... I was gonna say "nice to meet you," but... I don't know if that actually applies here.
Audio
Nice to talk to you. I feel you.
Audio
So, uh. This place-- It's not as weird as it first sounds, right? With the whole... turtle thing?

Audio
Yeah, you mostly just forget it after a while. You can go up to the head if you want, but I've heard it can be pretty trippy up there.
Audio
Is there anything, like, special up on the head?

[He pauses, and turns more serious for a second.]
You sure you don't need any help, though? There are some clinics around here you could go to if you're hurt.
Audio
I... Yeah, I'll be- okay. I was gonna go around and look for one in a minute. Someone said there'd be something in the Water or Earth sectors, or something.
Audio
Audio
...What?
Audio
Just saying! Some people have secret identities, and people here are pretty cool with respecting that. Maybe you don't, and that's fine too, I just thought... I just thought maybe...
Audio
...SHAKE IT OFF, PARKER. ]
Uh-- No, I-- Um. That's not-- I mean. That's..... Cool. That's cool. But I'm, uh... Why would you think I...?
Audio
It's totally cool if you don't, I mean, it's not like I have a secret identity or anything! [Nice save!] I just thought, yanno, maybe...
this is the best conversation in the world 8D
I mean, I'm totally, y'know, okay with-- I mean if you-- I'm totally friends with- [ The X-Men? Shut up, Peter. Shut up. That is not helping. ]
I was just, uh, wondering why you thought...
I'm glad you like it XD >> 70% encrypted
And I can teach you how to make these network conversations private, too, if you want.
[He fiddles with the keyboard and lays on the encryption he knows, pretty basic, really.]
There. Now no one can see our conversation.
70% encrypted
[He fidgets a little on his end, though even once the encryption's gone into effect, Peter hasn't let out that breath he seems to be holding.]
Oh-- Wow, that's actually pretty awesome...
70% encrypted
And here, [He sends over the code he used to encrypt the feed.] Just type this to make the conversation private.

[Ooooh. Peter's just nerdy enough to be excited about this.] Awesome. This'll totally come in handy...
