    6yo has been on-and-off afraid of spiders recently, but also watched Into the Spider-Verse last week.

    Me: “Want to check the mail?”
    6yo: “If there’s no spiders or webs, yes.”
    Me: <points at stereo playing Spider-Man> “But spiders are your friends now!”
    6yo: <rolls eyes>
    Me: “Maybe if you get bit you’ll get special powers.”
    6yo: “Not in this world.”
    Me: “Oh, that’s not where special powers come from in this world?”
    6yo: “Nope.”
    Me: “Where do they come from in this world?”

    6yo: “Your heart.”

    😳😭

    Really, I shouldn’t get greedy. She’s already the product of an experimental medical procedure à la Steve Rogers and she’s got a 50% chance of having picked up her dad’s unprecedented mutation; how many superhero origin stories does she need?
