He’s sarcastic, too smart for his own good, and mature beyond his years. A lovable pain in the ass who saves the day—begrudgingly.

My favorite superhero is Spider-Man because he’s smart, sarcastic, and doesn’t take himself too seriously. He’s not the strongest or the most powerful person in the room—he just figures things out and keeps going. I like that he can be a little annoying, but still does the right thing when it matters. Basically, he proves you don’t have to be perfect to be a hero, which is good because I definitely have no plans to become perfect.
His love of superheroes grew from watching movies, reading comics, and connecting with characters who were brave, funny, and imperfect. Spider-Man stood out most: an ordinary person juggling everyday problems while still trying to do the right thing. That made superheroes feel real to him—and showed him that being a hero isn’t about being perfect. It’s about helping others, making the effort, and trying again when you mess up.
He would want power to heal people. Bc apparently flying or punching through walls isn’t as useful as fixing everyone else’s problems. He’d complain the entire time, act like it was a massive inconvenience, then quietly make sure nobody got left behind He cares deeply, even if he’d rather die than admit it. As an only child, he’s not thrilled about sharing his time or energy.Still, he’d give people hope & comfort. Begrudgingly. With sarcasm. Probably while asking why everyone keeps getting hurt.
