Just a little #PSA. Be kind. You never know what someone's going through. Always be kind.

@WallCrawler This seems...specific.

@iamironman I've had to talk one too many people off of ledges lately. I just want to see some human fucking decency is all.

Swearing? @WallCrawler Call me. Right now.

Peter called Mr. Stark as he sat on the edge of a roof. "Hey, Mr. Stark."
"Are you okay, Peter?"
"No. Do you know how many sad people there are out there? And I can't help all of them. I'm not balanced myself all the time... It just sucks that I have to deal with it. I mean, I stopped at a restaurant today and this customer was just screaming at this cashier. They didn't even notice the woman start to cry. They just kept shouting and she just kept smiling and being kind while tears fell down her face. I gave her a hug, but Mr. Stark, that's just a stupid band-aid. It won't fix it. She was so broken up and she needs help but is too ashamed to ask, so she just fucking smiles while people beat her up, but I've seen that look before and she won't hold on like that for forever." Peter gasped in a breath, trying not to cry. "Mr. Stark, I've been low and the more I go out there the more I see people who are just so low...and people treat them like shit. Why can't people just be nice? Why can't they just be decent? Why can't humans treat each other like...like fucking humans?" Peter rubbed his eyes. "Sorry...I just...there was this kid last night...and he had a gun in his bag and he was going to.... Mr. Stark, I'm just tired of people being so hurtful, especially to people who have these deep wounds hidden under their skin."
"Peter..."
Peter jumped up and whirled. Tony Stark was behind him, stepping out of his suit. "Mr. Stark?" Peter hung up his phone.
"I'm going for a hug this time." Tony held out his arms.
Peter let out a sob and launched himself into Tony's embrace. "Can't people just...be good? Who fucking cares if you got a diet instead of a regular, just ask nice for a new one, right? Why do they have to scream?"
"I don't know, buddy." Tony sighed. "You wanna go back to that restaurant with me? As Peter and Tony?"
"I don't know if I can..."
"It'll be good, promise." Tony said. "You just got done swinging around, you need food, then we'll go spend some time at the tower...maybe a movie night?"
"Sounds good."
