[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.

It is not forever, and the closest places where you can get clothes depends on which sector you are in.

For bandages and similar items, you might want to go to the clinic, instead. Though if you are hurt now, somebody can probably come to you.

[So very in-between, Peter. So very. But if this voice sounds even younger than you to you? Well, you're not mistaken.]

[Miles sympathizes with this mystery guy. When he showed up, all he had was his Spider suit, and it was pretty torn and busted from the fight at the hospital. So he's glad to answer.]

I can bring you some clothes, but I'm gonna need to know your size first.

There's a lot of tailors and shops in the Fire District. A bit expensive, but they're there.

[Bianca feels extremely lucky that she caught this before she went out the door. He sounds like he can't be much older than Jaime. Her voice is concerned when she replies.]

I can bring some clothes and a [whole very well stocked at this point] first aid kit. [And also something for him to eat; he sounds strained.]

Where are you?

Hey I have some spare clothes you can borrow. [Only says "borrow" because he noticed he doesn't seem too thrilled to be given clothes, and he was hoping that would make him a bit more receptive.] Something to hold you over until you find something you like. My girlfriend made a whole bunch so you're really not imposing.

Do you need first aid, or a hospital? I can provide the former. [She's not McCoy over here.]

Did you show up naked too?

Did everyone else help you? Do you still need anything? I can be helpful. I'm good at helpful.

[She's also eager for a distraction, if you couldn't tell.]

[ well okay, she's noticed he's got first aid, and clothes, so- ]

We're not actually stuck here forever. [ it's meant to be reassuring, but she sounds a little uncertain about it ] I mean, there was a big gap in new arrivals for a while, but people go back all the time. Not sure if there's a method to it.

Well, that's a new one. Points for character.

We're not stuck forever. Just indefinitely. It's not the same.
