[ There are like two adults in this town that Peter has decided he can trust enough to actually instigate conversation with, and Wade Wilson is one of them. This is actually only the second time he's ever texted someone first in his five months of living here. Peter's.... He runs at a really slow pace. It's more of a crawl, really. But at least he's capable of doing that much now. ]
[ He's starting to hate that someone has installed a huge neon sign over him that exclaims "hey, kiddos, scare me with tough questions over text." And yet, he still can't keep himself from answering. ]
ya sure can kiddo Can't promise I can answer it let's hear it
[ Don't worry Wade, this isn't one of those awkward teenage questions. ..Well, maybe to some people. But Peter figures his neighbour's pretty safe to come to about stuff like this. Wade's cool. ]
oh thank fuck I thought this was going to be a hard question the magic basket, you could try eliot for magic weed, those don't work I have seeds but that's a longer term solution The plants I found didn't like the cold
cw: drugs for probably the rest of this thread tbh; Peter's a trash raccoon
Like a normal sized unicorn or a really little one?
I don't think I know Eliot
[ Peter desperately needs a school counselor but just as desperately would avoid going to one if it's ever been suggested to him. It probably has been by any of his teachers. A counselor.. a priest.. there are many things he needs ]
Is he like from Hogwarts too?
[ Hogwarts is the name of the school, not the country that the witches you've met come from, Peter. ]
But honestly just some normal weed would be good. I don't want to keep using Henry's so much bc she'll get mad if I use it all up
what you don't know Els Bells? he's the dude you go to to get the super brain massage at school I think probably I think that's what my snookums said don't you like brain massages??? everyone loves brain massages
wow that's so witch racist you just assume all witches come from Hogwarts?
Ask the basket I have a little if you're in dire straits right now the drug hound doesn't try to flush my weed
isn't mad just the default state of being for Henry?
when you talk about feelings and the other person makes you feel all ooey gooey for doing it he could probably help you with all that anxiety
first of all Hogwarts is a school second of all there are like other wizarding Schools J.K. made sure to be as questionably racist and clueless making them
Oooh what kinda weird stuff? sure thing kiddo you know where I live
what?? I like her fine And I'm pretty sure she adores me why did she say something about me?
Oh do you mean like a shrink? Idk... I've never been to a shrink before I mean my dad was one but he obv never like. Treated me or anything
I never realised there were so many wizards around My friend told me about how there's like houses you get put in Like teams Mine's some kind of puff Sucks that people are racist about it, though. People suck
Like my instruments from home. I don't want them here tbh And my little sister's notebook which is kind of haunted
Maybe it's tough love bc if she really hated you, she'd probably graffiti your house Or wait, has she ever done that before?
Do you know Luna? She lives with Newt. She's the one who told me about all of it Their school sounds so much cooler than any of mine
[ The question gives him pause, because how does he even begin to explain this? Why did he even bring all this up, anyway?? But.. well, he likes talking to Wade. He feels comfortable with it. ]
I guess it's kind of like... I don't really play anymore, so having them here feels kind of depressing? If that makes sense?
[ That's the most honest about admitting A Feeling that Peter's been in awhile. ]
I'm honestly not sure about the notebook. I think her... spirit is connected with it, or something? I'm def not touching it
I guess I need to tell Henry it's showed up here too though, speaking of. I just don't want to scare her
nope I don't know any Lunas wait Luna Lovegood??? blonde, kooky glasses, Mary Poppins accent?? yeah who didn't spend way too much time waiting for their Hogwarts acceptance letter
oh sure if they're depressing you hock em or store em somewhere where you don't have to look at them or blow them up that's always fun
Ew that's definitely weird don't touch that maybe blow it up too
she get scared often? I've only ever seen her mad
[ He finds himself weirdly worried for Henry with the new information that she gets scared; he's never really thought about it. Sure, they didn't get along, but it wasn't because Wade wished her any harm. ]
[ He sees that sarcasm and raises some of his own moody teenage cynicism, appreciative. Sometimes it feels nice to just gently talk shit about one's parents. ]
Yeah Luna Lovegood, that's her She's extremely awesome Though I've never seen her wear glasses before You know so much stuff about people, Wade Smart af
[ He thinks very highly of Wade, okay. ]
Ugh, so true though I put them in the closet so I don't have to look at them The notebook too
[ Unfortunately (unbeknownst to Peter), it's most definitely cursed and has set people on fire before when they tried to destroy it. Fortunately, he's more of a "let's put a blanket on our problems and cover them up for eternity" type person instead of a "let's blow them up and destroy all evidence" person, so he should be safe. ]
I think so I mean she's really brave about like everything but sometimes I accidentally scare her And this town too. She's been here awhile so she knows about all the shit that could happen
[ No, he's not, and honestly, the idea that anyone thinks he's smart is laughable. He's so used to being called a dumbass. ]
glad you're making friends here this place sucks like an Electrolux but some of the people here don't
ohhh yeah great tried and true method hiding things in a closet a lot of guys swear by it
no one's trying to hurt her or anything either of your guys right?
I find it hard to believe that you scare anyone
[ Sure, Peter's been light on his feet enough to jumpscare Wade a few times here and there... Which is actually... really hard to do. Maybe he's a mutant like Henry. Spidey can hardly even get the jump on Wade when he's trying. Then again, Spidey is a known dumbass. ]
[ Peter understands self-deprecation and he isn't going to challenge someone else's — just quietly tucks the thought away to himself. He personally thinks Wade's really smart, in all honesty: and he's been more helpful than more of the adults that Peter knows in his life. ]
No, no one tries to hurt us. I think we're pretty safe from other people Just.... town stuff. Like the blood? In October That really scared her.
[ He'd never seen Henry so upset before, and admittedly, it had been... very sobering for Peter. It was hard to see her like that.
...It's hard to address that next bit, too. Peter's learned a few things about his situation, but.... talking about them to other people is still... too hard. He hasn't been able to. He's barely been able to process any of it himself. ]
There's a lot of shit wrong with me Sometimes I go really weird and can't always remember what I'm doing
[ He's pretty sure Wade already knows that much, but... it's what he admits next that's new for Peter. ]
It's getting worse, though So I think she gets scared a lot The other kids at school too. I should probably skip class more often and just come smoke it up with you, right??
[ A joke... Make jokes when you're uncomfortable and nervous!!! ]

The plants I found didn't like the cold
cw: drugs for probably the rest of this thread tbh; Peter's a trash raccoon
[ ...This changes everything. ]
Also what do you mean by magic weed? Like... really magic? What's it do?
[ He's learned magic is a thing, so he's not doubting. He's just a little wary because magic can be...... scary sometimes. ]
no subject
you can ask it for anything
Ohhh I should ask it for a unicorn
yes
really magic
Eliot is a witch
it just depends on what you want it to do I think
no subject
I don't think I know Eliot

Ask the basket

isn't mad just the default state of being for Henry?
no subject
I never heard of that going on at school
[ But it sounds scary. So much sounds scary. Also, Peter's just afraid of everything. ]
You mean they come from other places? I thought Hogwarts was where they were all born
I might hit you up for some soon, it's been a long month
And that basket thing keeps giving me weird stuff I don't want
You 2 really don't like each other, do you

Sucks that people are racist about it, though. People suck
Like my instruments from home. I don't want them here tbh
And my little sister's notebook which is kind of haunted
Maybe it's tough love bc if she really hated you, she'd probably graffiti your house
Or wait, has she ever done that before?

your dad was a shrink?
OMG
we're both Hufflepuffs!
who is your friend
Newt?
he's a badger too
why don't you want them?
and how is it haunted?
nope
not even a brick through the window!
no subject
Do you know Luna? She lives with Newt.
She's the one who told me about all of it
Their school sounds so much cooler than any of mine
[ The question gives him pause, because how does he even begin to explain this? Why did he even bring all this up, anyway?? But.. well, he likes talking to Wade. He feels comfortable with it. ]
I guess it's kind of like...

[ That's the most honest about admitting A Feeling that Peter's been in awhile. ]
I'm honestly not sure about the notebook. I think her... spirit is connected with it, or something? I'm def not touching it
I guess I need to tell Henry it's showed up here too though, speaking of. I just don't want to scare her
[ He already scares her enough just by existing ]
no subject
nope
I don't know any Lunas
wait
Luna Lovegood???
blonde, kooky glasses, Mary Poppins accent??
yeah who didn't spend way too much time waiting for their Hogwarts acceptance letter
oh sure
if they're depressing you hock em or store em somewhere where you don't have to look at them

You know so much stuff about people, Wade
Smart af
[ He thinks very highly of Wade, okay. ]
Ugh, so true though

The notebook too

I think so
I mean she's really brave about like everything
but sometimes I accidentally scare her
And this town too. She's been here awhile so she knows about all the shit that could happen
no subject
that's me
known for being smart af
[ No, he's not, and honestly, the idea that anyone thinks he's smart is laughable. He's so used to being called a dumbass. ]
glad you're making friends here
this place sucks like an Electrolux but some of the people here don't
ohhh yeah
great tried and true method
hiding things in a closet
a lot of guys swear by it

The other kids at school too. I should probably skip class more often and just come smoke it up with you, right??
[ A joke... Make jokes when you're uncomfortable and nervous!!! ]
