{There's a long and thin, but rather ridiculously tightly muscled guy emerging from the water. While Uncle Ben had made sure he learned to swim in the community pool during the summer as a kid, and before he'd been pulled to Wonderland, he'd had access to his University's pools, growing up in New York City has left Peter's life a bit bereft of clean natural water sources to try out. Wonderland's water might not be as natural as he'd like, but it's refreshing.

However, someone might want to questions the swimwear he's chosen for his dip.}

[Billy smirked watching the other boy come out of the water. Kate had given him a brief rundown of people she had met and she told him to look out for a young Spider-Man. He wasn't sure if this was him or if he was just a fan.]

Nice suit.

{Peter looks up from where he'd been shaking the water out of his hair with his cheeks turning pink.}

Ah, thanks. Not swimming yourself?

[actualwizard]

[Billy wasn't the biggest fan of swimming. Childhood memories he didn't love to relive. He smiles and shrugs.]

I might. I never liked to, but I grew up in New York, so I never swam a lot.

{Suddenly Peter's face lights up in a grin.}

You're from New York, too?

Yeah, there were some aborted camping trips and rivers in my childhood, and public pools. I couldn't resist trying out a real beach not full of trash.

[actualwizard]

[Well Billy definitely liked his smile.]

A beach where you can actually see what you're stepping on when you swim. Public pools are horrible, and my family wasn't too big on camping, the one time we went my dad couldn't get the tent set up and my little brothers tried to go bear hunting.

{Peter chuckles.}

My Aunt was determined I knew how to swim so I had to brave the child and germ infested waters.

{He shakes his head.}

We did a couple of summer trips when I was a kid. Fishing, some delicious campfire s'mores that kind of thing. Trickled off when I got older.

{He wasn't as excited, Uncle Ben and Aunt May couldn't take the time off work, and certainly not at the same time, and they'd just...stopped going.}

[actualwizard]

[Noticing his mood deflating Billy smiles.]

Well, if this lasts long enough I'm sure we can manage a bonfire and find some s'mores supplies. I could always go for a good s'more.

{Peter shakes it off and nods.}

Quick run to the kitchen is all it would take maybe, and I bet we're not the only ones who'd be down for that.

Who could resist marshmallows and melted chocolate?

[He glances behind him towards the mansion.] Feel like taking a walk, or were you still wanting to swim?

[She does her best to muffle some laughter when she sees Peter walk out of the water. It has nothing to do with his looks (which, in her opinion, aren't bad at all) and everything to do with his choice of swimsuit.

Spiderman in Spiderman shorts. Does he do this sorta thing often?]

If it isn't our friendly neighborhood Spiderman. Nice shorts!

[Natasha's standing at the edge of the water one of the times he comes out of the surf. She recognizes him easily, and then laughs when she catches sight of what he's wearing. Crossing her arms over her chest, she flashes him a bemused grin.]

I think we might need to work on your subtlety skills.
