[It's too much. Too young. Too intense.]

[Where were the adults? There had to have been adults somewhere in the mix, gods and demigods and heroes. Why weren't they pulling all the weight?]

[Peter hadn't had any adults involved in his superheroing, but only because he'd shut them out, didn't tell Aunt May what he was up to until he was older. And even with thinking a teenager can handle a lot, the way he did, there are still limits and boundaries. There's a reason he webbed Miles to a chair to keep him from coming with the other spider-people to fight to shut down the super-collider - he wasn't ready. He was too new to his powers. He was too scared - an absolutely understandable and natural state of being, especially for someone so young.]

[Twelve. Twelve. For crying out loud.]

[But the look he gives Percy isn't just the soft look that comes of an adult's heart aching over a wrong committed against a child. There's massive respect there, too.]

I'll admit it, I'm impressed, kid. Nobody should've dragged you into that that young, but the fact you're still standing says a lot.
