He tried so hard to be pure. Without the pain of living, and the choice that comes with it, the truth is that he isn’t pure— he was just inert. Dead. Nothing.
His obsession with purity has led him to be the kind of person who cuts someone’s tongue off out of spite, the kind of person who crushed a wrist like it was cardboard, bone sucked into a black hole and ground to finite dust.
He isn’t pure. He’s instinctual. And he is dangerous. In these small acts of violence, Peter realizes with fear that he might save countless lives, if he accepts that he only has to take one.
Over. And over. And over again.

A horror-romance rewrite of the Spider-Man run, "The Other"!
Peter is slowly mutating due to the effects of a radiation bomb. He's hunting down the man who manufactured it, a Hydra figurehead named Edgar Lascombe, to stop him. What if his metamorphosis happened differently? What if Deadpool was there? What if instead of Wade getting better through Peter's influence, Peter got worse? What if Wade is also a monsterfucker? Love can sometimes take the most surreal forms. Even in horror, there can be beauty and connection beyond comprehension.
