𝐒𝐓𝐄𝐕𝐈𝐄 𝐖𝐀𝐒 𝐂𝐔𝐑𝐑𝐄𝐍𝐓𝐋𝐘 𝐈𝐍 her room with music blasting from her speakers. she had her mother's sewing machine sat on the floor with a bunch of fabric sprawled around her. she was trying her best to make her suit, new to this whole sewing thing. she had her mother show her what to do, the older carpenter asking what this was for. stevie just told her that it was her costume for halloween.

she paid close attention to the machine, making sure that everything was nice and neat. her head was bopping gently to the song that was blasting - freak on a leash by korn. one thing you needed to know about her is that she loved music from before she was born. doesn't matter how old it was, she would know it. she got that from her father, the man having a bunch of old vinyls. she continued to bop her head gently, the bridge starting. she stopped sewing once it came to an end, shooting her hands up as she yelled,

"go!"

with that, she started to bop her head harder to the beat, letting her hair fly in the air. this went on for a few more seconds before she started singing the lyrics. she let her voice go into a softer tone, going back to sewing her suit. she continued to whisper the lyrics until the song faded out. the reason the music was blasting so loud was because ever since she had gotten bit, it was like all of her senses were dialed up to 15, which didn't help with her adhd. so the music was all the way up so she couldn't hear anything else.

luckily, erin wasn't home in that moment.

she patiently waited for the next song to play, having her playlist set on shuffle. she gently pulled the suit away from the sewing machine, holding it up so that she could examine it. a small smile appeared on her face as she saw how perfect the stitches were. could the suit be bette? yes, but the point was that she made a suit that was gonna be perfect for her body and help with her abilities. she got up from the floor as who are you, really? by mikky ekko started to play. she gently placed the suit on her bed, taking a step back to see if there was anything that needed to be fixed.

she smiled once more before she started to strip of her clothing. she gently slipped her limbs into the homemade suit, not wanting to accidentally rip it in the process of her putting it on. once it was completely on, she walked over to her closet door, looking in the mirror. the chest, her breast, stomach, shoulders, outer arms, the outside of her hands, and the mid thighs down were black. her inner arms, palms, sides, and mid thighs up were maroon. she even had stitching in web patterns on the suit, which was gray. there was also a gray spider in the middle of her chest, the four top legs touching each other while the bottom four were far apart. the bottom of her feet also had soles on them so that she could walk comfortably. could you tell that she wanted the suit to be perfect? it took her three days to finish.

she then walked over to where her mask was on the floor. she picked it up and looked at it closely. the mask was black as well, the gray webbing being on it neatly. she used an old pair of sunglasses as the lenses, the tint of them being gray to match with the stitching and spider in her suit. she then walked over to where her desk was, lowering her music as she placed her mask next to her phone. she then picked up the web shooters that her and donnie made together, attaching them to her wrist. she smiled as she watch a white light appear in the middle, meaning that it was full of web fluid and was ready to use.

you're probably wondering how the hell she did all of this within a few days. but she didn't. it's been a whole month since stevie first saved a kid named dante and had became remnant. it had mean a month of running around with donnie, trying to get all of the materials they needed to make the best suit ever. it had been a month of remaking the web shooters and the fluid so that they could be perfect. it had been a month of trying to get stevie's measurements for the suit. it had been a month of donnie and stevie not seeing ned and peter because they were so busy with their project. and it had been a whole month since spider-man came back from his two day vacation, in a fancy new suit.

once spider-man had returned, stevie had decided that he could handle it. but he couldn't do everything on his own, not being able to get everywhere at once. so sometimes she would make an appearance when an old lady was getting mugged, wearing a black t-shirt around her face in a black outfit. there had been many times when spider-man would appear a minute too late, seeing stevie all ready taking care of the problem. he had tried to properly introduce himself, but the girl was all ready gone before he could even get the first word out.

the sound of a window being slid open made her look towards it, seeing donnie climbing through it. she raised her eyebrows slightly, wondering why he hadn't just come through the door. but then she remembered that she had her music blasting for over an hour.

"wow." was all donnie said once he had seen stevie dressed in her suit. "is this the finished product? because if it isn't, it needs to be. it looks fucking great, stevie."

the carpenter girl looked down, a small smile on her face as she did a little twirl for the boy to see. "thanks, don. i worked really hard."

"your ass looks great in it too." donnie quickly added, quickly slapping stevie's butt before he plopped down on her bed.

she rolled her eyes, used to donnie doing this.

"now let's do a test run." donnie suggested. "do a few combos and spidey stuff to see if anything needs to be fixed."

"good idea." stevie mumbled.

during the past month, stevie had also been learning a bunch of fighting techniques to help with her combat skills. she did a few combinations of moves, donnie watching closely with a small smile on his face. she then hopped up, quickly holding her hand up so that it could stick to the ceiling. she pulled herself up before she crawled around on the ceiling, making sure she was comfortable. she then stood up on the ceiling, walking over to where donnie was so that they could be face to face. she sent a big grin, her hair hanging down since she was upside down.

"it's good? everything's okay?" donnie quizzed, not being able to help but smile.

"yep. we're good." stevie nodded, turning so that her back was facing the taller boy before she took a step to her right.

she then dropped down on the bed, quickly flipping so that she would land on her butt. she also did a lot of those nows, flipping and other gymnastic related things. it was new to her but she enjoyed it.

"hey, i just realized something." donnie announced, making stevie look at him. "if your skin is what make you sticky. . . how do you stick to things when you have clothes on?"

stevie tilted her head slightly, not having the answer to that. "i don't know. i never really thought about that. but where did you come from? why'd you come through the fire escape?"

"i was at peter's." the watson boy answered, making stevie smile slightly.

"that still doesn't make sense." she then mumbled. "he may live a floor above me but his apartment is like. . . three apartments down."

"yeah, well, i came down on the elevator and knocked on the door. but you was blasting music so i went downstairs and came back up on the fire escape." donnie explained.

"why not just call me?" stevie questioned.

"phone is dead."

the shorter girl rolled her eyes as she held her hand out, donnie pulling his phone out and dropping into her hand. she got up from the bed and quickly plugged it up to her charger before she plopped back down next to stevie.

"why were you at peter's anyway?" she then asked.

"he had asked me to come over because he said he missed me." donnie answered, feeling his cheeks heat up.

"ooh." stevie said in a teasing tone, making her best friend roll his eyes. "he missed you?"

"shut up. he said he missed you too." donnie quickly said. "we haven't really hung out with him or ned in a month. i miss them, too."

"yeah, i do too." stevie nodded. "we can hang out with them today. i mean, it's the weekend."

"yeah."

stevie then perked up at the sound of a car alarm blaring in the distance. even though most of the time, her heightened senses distracted her, they came in handy when it came to the crimefighting thing. donnie noticed the way stevie's spine went straight, something that she only did when someone or something caught her attention. but by the look on her face, he could tell that something was going on.

"go. i'll still be here." donnie told her.

the curly haired girl nodded. she shot up from her bed, quickly weaving two braids into her brown locks so that they would fit under the mask more comfortably. she walked over to the desk and swiped her mask off before she slipped it over her face. she then grabbed her phone, running over to the window. she swiftly jumped through it, having some practice. she shot her right arm out, pushing her middle and ring fingers down so that they could push the button that would activate her web shooter. once the end of the web attached itself to a building, she released the button and quickly grabbed onto the other end of the web.

"woohoo!" she exclaimed excitedly as she swung through the air.

she loved this part.

donnie heard the yell come from the girl, a laugh escaping his lips as he got up from the bed and went over to where his phone was. he knew she would enjoy being a hero.

stevie quickly approached the car that was being broken into, seeing a guy all dressed in black. she landed about a foot behind the guy, trying to see if he was actually breaking in or if he was trying to get the car unlocked because he left his keys inside - it happens. when she saw the anxious look on the guy's face, that gave her the answer she was looking for. she took a step forward, getting ready to web the guy up. but she stopped herself once a familiar vigilante cladded in red and blue landed on the car itself.

"sorry, sir. i think you have the wrong car." spider-man commented, quickly webbing the guy up before he swiftly slid off the car.

stevie watched as the spiderling kicked the guy into a brick wall, quickly webbing him to it so he wouldn't move. she tilted her head slightly at the voice, it sounding so familiar. once spider-man was done, he turned around so that he could swing away. but he stopped himself once he had saw remnant standing there.

"woah!" he exclaimed, jumping up and down on his feet as his arms flared. he was fanboying over her. "you're her! you're remnant! and - and you got an updated suit! it looks really cool!"

stevie's eyebrows furrowed under her mask as she watched the black framing around the white lenses that were covering his eyes. . . move. they were actually moving, almost like he was squinting. it made it a lot easier to see his emotions, which stevie liked. whoever designed the suit was amazing.

"uh, i'm - i'm spider-man." he introduced, sticking his hand out. "i've been trying to introduce myself for the past month, but every time i do, you always leave."

stevie didn't say anything, trying to find out why the vigilante in front of her sounded so fucking familiar.

"not much of a talker, huh?" spider-man questioned, his arm falling down to his side. "no, i get it. i get it. but, uh. . . maybe we could team and stuff, you know? we are out here doing the same thing, and it'll be a lot of easier."

all stevie did was shrug before nodding. she then stepped forward, sticking her hand out. "remnant."

she watched as spider-man's eyes squinted, almost like he wasn't expecting that to be her voice. he froze for a few seconds, his head tilting to the side as he tried to figure out why she sounded so familiar. stevie realized this, awkwardly shifting on her feet as she let her hand drop back to her side.

"why do you sound so familiar?" spider-man questioned.

just as stevie was going to answer with a lie, her phone started to ring. she quickly slipped it out of the pocket she had made for it, seeing that it was her mother.

"whoa. where did your phone come from?" she heard spider-man ask she turned away.

she quickly lunged her right arm forward, a web shooting out as she swung back to the apartment. she quickly answered the phone, hoping her mother wouldn't notice the fact that she was soaring through the air.

"hi, mom." she greeted as she started to make her way back to her apartment.

"hey, sweetie. i was thinking we could order chinese tonight. does that sound good to you?" erin asked from the other side of the phone.

"uh, yeah. that sounds great, ma. do you need me to pick it up or are you gonna do it?" stevie then asked, a small grunt escaping her lips as she shot another web.

"no, it's okay. i can do it, sweetie." erin answered.

"okay." stevie said. "i love you. oh! donnie and i are gonna be at peter's for a few hours, okay?"

"sure thing. have fun."

and with that, erin hung up. stevie let go of the web and swung onto the side of her apartment building, stepping onto the railing of the fire escape. she climbed through her window, seeing that donnie was scrolling through his phone. she pulled her mask off as she plopped down on the bed.

"how'd it go? did you stop whatever it was?" donnie quizzed, placing his phone on the bed.

"nah, spider-man did." stevie answered.

"you met him?" donnie questioned, starting to get excited. "did my two favorite heroes finally meet!?"

"yes, don. calm down." stevie answered, an airy chuckle leaving her lips. "but he sounded so familiar."

donnie's eyebrows furrowed together, "what, like you know him?"

"yeah. and i seemed to be familiar to him too." stevie answered, her mind immediately switching off the topic. "his suit looks a lot better up close. and his eyes - his eyes move. they don't blink or anything, but if he's confused or show expressions, they squint or go big."

"that's cool." donnie mumbled.

"i want moving eyes." stevie mumbled.

donnie hummed. "maybe you can build yourself some."

"maybe."
