[ God, he's so sincere. that's either going to be excruciating or endearing, time will tell. (time doesn't have to - it's already almost definitely going to be the latter.) ]
Good. And please, leave "sir" at the door. It's Doctor Strange. Stephen Strange, that's my name. If we're going to be working together I'd appreciate not being made to feel old.
[ or, at least, any older than Peter's apparently boundless energy will doubtless make him feel. ]
I mean, sorry Doctor Strange, sir. That's kind of a crazy name by the way. Like, who knew you were going to turn out to be both an actual doctor and actually strange? Not that you were called Doctor before you were one, probably, and hey no offense at the strange thing, which would be pretty rich from someone who can walk up walls. But dude, seriously, it's like if my real name was Doctor Stickyfeet.
Anyway, thanks. I appreciate it, really. How long do you think it'll take me to pick up Paseltongue?
Nevermind. I use my hands, my focus and my knowledge. Sometimes also words when the spell's particularly intricate. That wasn't the point I was making.
[A little smart, until you terrify him into sirring you again.]
I'll be there! Thanks again for the opportunity, you won't regret this Mister Strange.
[Because Peter won't just be there Saturday afternoon, he'll make the address part of his route while keeping the city clean. Stephen won't be able to step out the front door for the upcoming week without hearing about a lost dog found or elderly woman helped across the street by their friendly neighborhood spiderman.]
[ it's Tuesday when Stephen sends that last message and leaves it be. it's Thursday when he steps out for the second time that day only to wander into a hubbub in the local coffee shop, excited conversations over iced lattes and overpriced lunch: another spiderman sighting. ]
I'd call pest control, but people seem fond of you.
Because I set up this great humane trap system for our building. It's like a really long tube system that leads them right back out to the nearest subway entrance. I could set one up for you if you want.
Or is it bedbugs? Because then you've pretty much got to burn everything.
