"RAGE, MAYBE RAGE WOULD LIFT ME UP, MAKE ME STAND, MAKE ME WALK-"

— Marlon James, Black Leopard, Red Wolf

DISDAIN ALWAYS COMES FROM SOMETHING.

Hate always comes from something.

Attraction doesn't always come from something.

Miguel O'Hara does disdain and hate the new recruit. A visceral hate that he strongly believes come from many things. After all, what else could it be?

Luz Morales was a mere human, a mere liability in the middle of the Spider Society. He couldn't comprehend how his peers came to the agreement of recommending her — she was nothing. Perhaps her genius intelligence level was of help, but her place wasn't there among them.

Luz Morales was loved by everyone. The constant smiles and appreciation she was receiving from the other Spider-People made him boil, for he thought she didn't deserve any of this. What was it with her that compelled others to behave nicely towards her?

What was it with her that compelled him to behave the way he does towards her?

Luz Morales wasn't from his universe. The young woman was first brought in by the Spider-Man of Earth-1610, Peter Parker (among others), clueless about everything. It appeared that there were other Luz Morales across the multiverse, and they all ended up working for Alchemax or didn't have the brains to be brought near anything scientific. She was the only one left.

THAT WAS HATE. That was disdain. He had reasons. Three valid reasons among others.

But he couldn't help but think there was something else, something he couldn't explain — something that was greater than his will, for he sometimes caught himself behaving as he was a simple host in his own body. It was as if it was embed in his head, in his blood, in his soul.

What was it with her that compelled him to not behave towards her the way he does with everyone else?

And this peculiar feeling, he didn't know where it was coming from.

There was only one way for him to get rid of her, of this.

For this infuriating enigma he came across disturbed him at the highest point, he needed to solve it to finally find rest.

She was like a code. Yes, a code. One so intricately woven and designed to put him out of his mind. An attraction code.

Messing with his head, disturbing his own code, haunting him like the clingiest of children.

He needed to decode her so he could be set free, he just needed to understand the formula trapping him for this attraction code to crumble to dust.

That, of course, is what he believed.

LUZ ANGELA MORALES. the recruit // the walking nightmare

LUZ: You don't even have one single valid reason to hate me. You know what it's called, O'Hara? Being an obsessive hater with fanatic tendencies.

MIGUEL O'HARA. spider-man 2099 // the vampiric douchebag

MIGUEL: You don't need to do something to infuriate me. Just seeing you breathe makes my blood boil.

🕷️ welcome to ATTRACTION CODE, a miguel o'hara fanfiction. while i have a love-hate relationship with him because he tried to hurt my baby... oscar isaac hernandez estrada *inhuman scream*. the fic is set on EARTH- 928B, miguel's universe / two years before the events of spider-man into the spiderverse. little warning about miguel and luz age gap (it's not even that large but if it saves me from certain comments). she is set to be twenty-three in itsv, therefore twenty/twenty-one in the beginning of the story. we don't know a lot about miguel, so i assume he's in his late twenties, early thirties? not leonardo dicaprio's style.

🕷️ this story is not tied to my two other marvel bookseries as i still don't know where this will lead me, however, it is tied to my miles morales fic OMINOUS SCENT where luz will appear as her current self. it is likely that she makes a cameo either in the TANTALEAN CURSE series, the TEATRUM MUNDI one, or both.

🕷️ about the timeline of some events, let's say it's a slight alternate universe? it is said in the movie that he created the spider society after the events of itsv (that's what i understood), to return to their dimensions the individuals scattered in other realities after the super collider event. it leaves to think that him replacing his alternate dead self also happens after the events of itsv. or maybe i misunderstood, i was tired when i went to see the movie. in ATTRACTION CODE, the creation of the spiderverse is triggered by miguel's alternate dead self universe's collapse. it's already been around three years the spider society has been created when luz gets the job.

🕷️special dedication to amidalaology && wrensofvizla, for always being the most amazing friends ever and supporting me, go read their stories or i'm sending hank pym's ants your way. thank you to B0RNCONFVSED && everlxstingphoenix for always supporting my work (that i have a tendency to forget) without any second thought. this is also dedicated to BlackCat2907 && ewgender
