Rooftops of Fandom - NYE 2020 Evening
It might seem a weird thing to dress up in a spider themed onesie and then jump around the rooftops of Fandom on New Year's Eve. (In fact: Yes. It is weird)
But for Miles it was point in time he could clear his head and think about the last four months in Fandom. And one month in particular.
Miles could not believe the amount of change in his life in that month. What he gained. And what he lost.
He stood on a random rooftop looking out on the town as he began to hear the clanging of a clock and then cheers as the new year was rung in.
And while the smile was hidden beneath his mask, that smile was definitely there. And with a thwip of a webline, Miles dove off the building and began to swing through the night air toward whatever new future he was about to face.
[I don't know. I just wanted to have him have a NYE moment.]

Thursday - From Room 305 to Brooklyn to Queens
Miles had been busy the last couple of days working on the walls of Adora's side of the room. Painting from memory he put up a mural of Adora's Friends which looked nice even though he spent half his time keeping a certain lion cub roommate from eating his feet.
When it was done he made arrangements to ensure that Adora was fed and walked as well as making sure all valuables were out of reach of a certain lion's paws.
And then it was to Portalocity and

Room 305: Late Sunday Evening
Miles had barely gotten back to school before he had to turn around and leave Fandom for home yesterday. The funeral for his uncle had been for family and friends only which turned out to be just Mom, Dad and himself.
And then right before he was about to head to Portalocity, his Dad instead took him to the wall outside of the police station like he had promised on Friday.
So it was late when Miles got home. Luna, his daemon was waiting for him at the causeway and kept him company on the walk back to campus which was oddly comforting and discomforting at the same time.
When he finally got back to his room he sat down at his desk and tried to put the last week in perspective. Before all this he was a normal kid just trying to get back to Brooklyn and be with his friends. But now everything was different. Checking his messages he did find a reminder that he had an essay to turn in for science class. Not about science, but who Miles wanted to be. Well... that essay might be easier to write now than it had a week ago.
He opened up google docs and began to write as if he was some kind of mixture between Doogie Howser MD and Brian Johnson from Breakfast Club.
( Okay. Let’s do this one last time. )
He saved the file and sent it off to his teacher before giving Luna one final scritch behind her ears and going to bed, putting on his headphones to listen to some music that would help him sleep.
[NFI. And my final plot post. Sorry for all the spamming this week! Thank you to all who participated (Especially, and for all the preplay) including all of you who dealt with gremlins, gremlin bites and coming to Brooklyn to save a city. Y'all are the best.]

Room 305: Tuesday Afternoon
Miles was at his desk watching a video for his online physics class. The video was about quantum physics, alternate realities and featured the head scientist of some brain trust called "Alchemax" and Miles was doing his best to try and pay attention but the view outside was way more interesting.
And that's when his phone rang. Seeing who it was, Miles sighed and answered.( Hi Dad. )
Miles hung up and looked out the window. From his vantage point he could see the the bridge that led to the mainland. Without much thought he hit another number on his phone. “Hey. Uncle Aaron? It’s Miles. Listen, can I come over to hang out this weekend? I just need to get a break from this place. You know what I mean?”
This time the sound at the other end of the phone was cheerful. Welcoming. Understanding. Miles smiled in relief. “Thanks, Uncle Aaron. I’ll see you Saturday.”

Room 305: Tuesday after classes
Miles needed some kind of normalcy. Failing that he needed an escape.
Seeing that normalcy was in short supply in Fandom, he opted to start work on the mural he had planned out for his room.
He moved furniture around and made sure that all of his stuff and Adora's were covered with drop cloths. He also managed to find a large fan to put in the window to help with the ventilation. Normally he wouldn't wear a mask but since the room was pretty enclosed he put one on just to make sure the fumes didn't overwhelm him.
He stood there for a bit, cans of paint in his hands, staring at the wall and getting a sense of its space and size before starting with his first lines... after that there was no going back.
Sticking mostly with black and white, Miles worked on his wall, dipping into blue and purples to help break up the image in general.
Anyone walking by would no doubt notice the smell first before seeing the actual work being done.
[Door open and visitors are welcome]

Room 305: Sunday
After the picnic, Miles just went back to his room and barely did any unpacking before just crashing on his bed and sleeping.
Even then he didn't sleep well. The sound of the dorms at night were nothing like the small bedroom in his parents' apartment back in Brooklyn. A couple of times he woke up and completely forgetting where he was.
Finally he just got up and grabbed his sketchbook and started to draw. There were a lot of things and people he saw yesterday and part of him hoped that if he could sketch them he might somehow adjust to this place a bit better.
It was well into the morning when he got a delivery notification on his phone. Surprised he went down to the first floor lobby to see a stack of two boxes waiting for him and an Amazon rickshaw taking off. Hauling the boxes back to his room he opened the first one and smiled.
Spray paint. "Blind EZ.Mixture." His favorite brand and colors. There was even a new backpack so he could haul it all around with him and some storage crates to keep in his room. Along with a printed note inside saying they were from his Uncle Aaron.
He took a quick picture of the opened boxes and texted a thank you before diving in and starting to organize it all by color. Already he had an idea of something he wanted to put on the wall but he'd wait until he asked Adora if he could first.

Infopost! (We still do these, right?)
"All right, let’s do this one last time."
( Can we talk about Miles )
The important stuff:
I made some alterations to Miles’ canon in order for it to work with Fandom. He has not gone through canon yet, so he’s just a normal kid. Miles is coming to Fandom High as a Sophomore having won a scholarship to the school which he doesn’t think he deserves. He’ll get some more confidence eventually, especially after he goes through canon.
If you are from the Marvel Universe, you are welcome to recognize him as being Miles Morales if your character knows him as Spider-Man. However, please don’t break his brain with that as I still want him to go through canon. Also don’t expect him to immediately recognize any Marvel character as the only hero he really knows about is Spider-Man. There is a Tony Stark in his universe (Or at least there was a mention of him in a scene that was cut) but that’s about it. Why only Spider-People and barely anyone else? Sony.
God that movie had so much Sony product placement.
Anyway, that’s about it. Questions? Comments? Pie?
