[He nods, looking a little lost.

But Tony did at least spare him, for the time being — he doesn't remotely consider that he's among the missing half of the galaxy. There's a palpable concern and anxiety coming off him in waves, a sort of helplessness that would probably literally drive a spider kid up a wall. He has hands, ergo, he should be using them to do something to protect the galaxy. But there's nothing to do here; there's no one to save from danger, and those already in harm's way have been harmed. And then some.

He stands there, for once a little speechless, rubbing an arm.

Is he supposed to go back to protecting Riverview as Spider-Man?

He supposes that's one way to handle this helplessness. His voice is a little uneven, quieted.]


I'm sorry, Mr. Stark. That you had to deal with that. I wish I could do something.

[He's gonna spend a lot of time worrying about the people he loves at home, that's for sure.

But it's — it's better than swinging around not knowing, thinking everything's okay.

That wouldn't be fair to the people who're gone.]
