Around the holidays, Peter fights himself HARD to make sure he doesn’t go near MJ’s family’s apartment. He knows that it’s his best chance at seeing her.. and he hates himself for wanting to try to catch even a glimpse of her. It’s so wrong on so many levels. He knows it, he hates himself for it. He never wants to stalk her or invade her space.
But he misses her. And he wants to see her. Some days he feels really, really weak. And on those days he even goes as far as checking his phone to see the travel time to her family’s apartment.
But he knows better. He never does it, he never goes near her apartment when he figures she’s around. But it just tears him apart nonetheless.

Meanwhile, MJ enjoys spending time at home with her family, hanging out with Ned in their old hangout spots, seeing the city again.
But she never feels wholly content. Something feels empty. She longs for something… some days it feels like she longs for someone. But who?
After the holidays, MJ goes back to school with Ned, feeling unsatisfied with how she spent her holiday break for some reason.
And deep down, far from where her enchanted memory can reach… her heart is screaming at her, wounded and punctured, knowing exactly who she is missing.
Oh my fvcking gosh. I was rewatching nwh and I discovered something that is absolutely destroying my fvcking heart.
So when the government ppl are going through Peter’s apartment at the beginning of the movie, the first thing they take a picture of is this.
A photo of ned and mj. Two ppl Peter cares a lot about. But notice the frame of the photo. Black with a silver outline. And you know where else we’ve seen this frame?
HERE! And I just realized that Peter freaking MADE these. And he GAVE that photo to Tony as a gift. This makes that moment in endgame even more meaningful. Its not just the picture that motivates Tony, its also the fact that Peter made it FOR him and gave it to him to keep.
Its 3:20 in the morning and my freaking heart is pounding and i am SOBBING DUDE😭😭
UPDATE AS OF MAY 18, 2022: i just thought of this and...
What if Peter just had it on his shelf the whole time like the photo of ned and mj. And what if Tony went to the parker’s apartment after they both got dusted and what if Tony grabbed it himself since Peter wasn’t there anymore 😖
