#usually it's soul that chooses him i think? bc of the snappening and presumably at least in fanon being trapped in the soul world

I almost never see it in fics but the idea of the power stone choosing Peter as its guardian solely for the "with great power comes great responsibility" line greatly amuses me. In the mcu Peter bumbles and fumbles with his powers quite a lot but most other variations I've seen largely show they're successful in taking their self appointed responsibilities seriously, tragedies aside. Seeing as power choosing Peter would already be an au, I think it stands to reason Peter could grow into it yknow? Instead of constantly being an idiot (as he should tbh he's a teenage boy with superpowers, he's gonna be stupid)

#usually it's soul that chooses him i think? bc of the snappening and presumably at least in fanon being trapped in the soul world #but i like the power stone for peter for the sheer silliness of it #peter parker #infinity stones #spider-man #i think of this every time i read a fic involving sentient stones #also i havent seen no way home bc its gonna break me but from what i understand may delivers the iconic line? i just grew up obsessed with #tobey? how spell? #tobey's spidey and that line is just. idk intrinsic? eh attached to all spideys in my brain permanently #also! i think because this line is so attached to spidey and everything he stands for. peter would take care of and utilize power better #like hes already pulling punches and all this wild shit instead of obliterating everything and everyone i think this deliberate care would #apeal to a sentient being literally the embodiment of power #like theyd be used if they want to. used smart and used well. does that make sense?
