fun fact in the comics pavitr HATED hobie and told him that he was the worst spiderman so seeing them be so close in atsv is such a healing moment for me I love queer and poc solidarity
i feel like when they first met pavitr dropped his whole speech like 'being spiderman is so easy. i love my life!! i look awesome and i am awesome!!!!!!!!!' and hobie was like 'sick, man. you should always have confidence in yourself. the establishment encourages self hatred with unrealistic standards to push self improvement products and fund the capital.' and pavitr is like ':D yeah man!!!' having zero idea what he just said.
then they fist bump on it and BOOM! best friendship
