Hey, everyone! This is your friendly neighborhood Spider-Boy here.

[Yes, that's him. Right there on the camera, chilling on a rooftop. The only thing that's different from usual is that the sleeve of his costume is ripped.]

Check it out! [And now he's showing you that rip, or more specifically, the cut on his arm that... isn't too deep, but

Congratulations, Spider-Boy. Do you need a band-aid or something?

[spiderfanboy]

No, I just thought that I'd let it bleed a little longer.

[Can't tell if serious.]

[heiressapparent]

What are you trying to do? Attract vampires?

I've got a first aid kit on me, remember? Want me to hook you up?

[spiderfanboy]

Wait are there really vampires here?! [He... probably shouldn't sound so excited about that.]

You'd don't have to worry about it, I'm okay now. [He webs a quick bandage around his arm.] See? You don't need to worry about me anymore.

[heiressapparent]

Of course there are. You know Scathach and Officer Victoria, right?

Uh-uh, mister. If anything, we should be more worried about you now.

[spiderfanboy]

They're vampires? [Okay, seriously, Gerry really isn't the most observant spider. He just thinks that fighting a vampire would be cool.] They're not evil though.

... Why? I'm better now! I won't get sick if a bad guy so much as scratches me now.

[heiressapparent]

No way. They're good vampires. There are others around too, I'm pretty sure.

I'm pretty sure this means you're gonna get into even more trouble now.

[spiderfanboy]

Oh... [He thinks about that for a moment.] Yeah, probably. I mean, everyone won't treat me like I'm made of glass or something anymore. I can finally be like everyone else.

[heiressapparent]

Did people really treat you like that before?

[spiderfanboy]

Yeah... They always acted like I would keel over dead at any moment.

[He's not going to add that it was a legitimate concern.]

[heiressapparent]

I guess technically anyone could keel over at any moment.

[spiderfanboy]

Exactly! It's not like it was a big deal if I was closer to it than other people.

[heiressapparent]

You're only closer if you believe you're closer.

[spiderfanboy]

Well, a week ago, I definitely was. Not today, though. I'm as good as everyone else now.

[heiressapparent]

That's the spirit. Don't let anyone tell you you can't be a hero.
