[There are some things you can't run from. For Peter, he's been trying to run, but things keep coming up, keep reminding him. He went a good month of pretending that he was just a normal guy who made it out of his world alive. It was a good lie. Even for those people who knew him as Spider-Man, no one needed to know that his final moments in his life were spent saving Aunt May. They didn't need to know that he had given his all and that he was actually happy with what he managed.
But there's dying. And then there's finding out you aren't dead. There's finding out that you have a whole new life, and that somewhere, in another dimension, a "you" managed to grow up. Sue knew him. Bucky knew him. Even that grumpy Nathan guy knew a Spider-Man. And for all that, he's been trying to make it less obvious that he's surprised that he grew up. It's been hard, and he knows it'll continue.
It has to, after all. With great power and all that, and this world has bigger problems than his.
But still, he sets out to ask this question, because he knows it's better to ask now than later. He had to be careful about what thing he said to Charlie that one day. When he phrases his question, he rereads it a couple times, taking out anything that sounds too much like him. The last thing Peter needs is someone tracing it back to him.
He's not ready for those conversations.]
I've got a question, but first, please don't try to trace this back to me. If you've already done that and broken my encryption, let's just pretend you didn't. [Also, you're a jerk, but he had to cut that part out. Too ... him.]
What happens if you died before you came here? What's left for me after this all ends? Before you ask, yeah, I definitely died.
I just thought I'd ask.

How much free will do you have?

... I'm not following programming, if that's what you're wondering. I've got my own 'karma'.

From what I gathered, it's to identify someone as capable of self-direction. But talking to the soldiers working for those two bitches? Not the best source of information.

Who are Cuvier and Angel? For context.
no subject
... I suppose Cuvier's supposed to be in charge, but Angel's got her own thing. Didn't really care either way. Last I knew, Angel shot the old hag in the back but don't quote me on that.

Also, why is it that people in those positions are always evil? This is rhetorical, but it seems like a good question anyway.

[DDS is a complicated thing and Heat's leaving out a lot of information. Whether he's doing it on purpose or not is up for debate]
Because those idiots wouldn't be able to do half the evil shit they're known for if they didn't have the power to. Who knows, maybe one of these weaklings stuck here could be evil but they ended up here instead of sitting in some cushy lounge talking bullshit about how to ruin everyone else's lives.

And usually there's something that leads someone that way. A switch. It just seems like that kind of thing leads to the switches getting hit most of the time.

You've dealt with this situation before.
