...I'm really at a loss.

Needless to say, Spider-Man is alive and that disgusting black monster won't be back. How do I know?

The fight was televised.

The black thing have anything to do with that black outfit of Spiderman's?

[unity_of_will]

I assume so, yes. He wasn't wearing the suit when he fought the thing.

...Wasn't it you who said Spider-Man's exploits were made into movies on your world?

[assistant_god]

Hm.

That was me.

[unity_of_will]

Well... then wouldn't you know? It makes me wonder just how accurate those movies are.

[assistant_god]

To tell the truth, I never saw all of them.

Okay, I looked it up. According to our info, the black thing is "Venom." Its ooze can corrupt people, so Spiderman went temporarily kinda evil, hence the black.

And yes, Venom's an alien.

Oh, and apparently Sandman killed Spiderman's father-figure back when he was a standard criminal. More issues.

And Osbourne knew it was really Peter.

You have no idea how much it unnerves me that people can just do this.

[assistant_god]

Look things up about people?

[last_hatchling]

If you can tell what someone was thinking, it's not really the same as 'looking things up', is it?

[assistant_god]

Well, I'm just finding out what happened in a movie that seems to close to what happened in Otto's world. I'm no telepath.

[last_hatchling]

That... shouldn't work, though.

If there are a truly infinite number of universes, then fine, I suppose a given sequence of events is going to show up somewhere else as a work of fiction: but won't there also be a world where a superficially similar but completely different story was made into...

Bail me out here, Doctor?

[unity_of_will]

It depends on which multiversal theory you prescribe to. Spider-Man, for example, exists in many universes. In some he's real, in some he's got movies made about him, and in others he's in comic books. They're not all exactly the same person; they have different histories, different personalities. It's the same with me. I imagine there are many copies of you as well, Samus.

OK. So Spider-Man went 'temporarily kinda evil'? That's why he was being violent, the suit? Hm. Thought it was the other way around.

Oh, gimme a break. Coincidence indeed. Sandman's still a low-life thug. I don't care if he's sandblasted half of Midtown.

So if Osborn knew it was Peter all along... it'd make sense he wouldn't kill him, they were friends. But then, why was he using Green Goblin's suit and glider? Goblin's dead. How'd he get it?

[last_hatchling]

That's an odd thought.

I personally have no idea which theory to follow- particularly since I haven't made it 'offworld' yet.

[assistant_god]

Hey, I'm just reporting what the movie says, I'm not saying it's neccessarily accurate.
