Peters POV:

I throw myself into the back of my chair in exasperation. What is up with this internship and boredom?

I literally twiddle my thumbs for a moment before I remember my online friends. I pull out my phone and create a group chat with the both of them. I send the first message, praying that they will answer.

Peter

I'm soooo boooored

I even composed a haiku about it since I have nothing else to do

*Clears throat*

Boredom, I hate it

It makes me do crazy stuff

To stop this boredom

Mr. Insomniac

Wow...

Just wow

That is awful.

Aren't you supposed to be smart or something?

Peter

Hey!

I'm offended. >:(

I just shared my soul with you.

And I never said I'm a poet or anything.

Mama Spider

Nice job Baby Spider

Nice job

Here's your award for participation

(ﾉ・◡・)ﾉ*:･ﾟ✧

Peter

I can't tell if I'm offended or not

Mama Spider

Maybe that plays into the bad poem

Peter

Man, I didn't know you had a sassy side

Must be hidden behind what you say is "scaryness"

Mr. Insomniac

She IS scary Baby Spider

I'm surprised that some of her co-workers are even alive right now.

Peter

I got it!

Mama Spider

Got what?

Peter

The cure to my boredom!

Mr. Insomniac

What, the haiku didn't work?

Peter

Not once I finished it!

Mr. Insomniac

I don't know if I would call that finished. Maybe more of a failed attempt that is hard to recognize.

Peter

(งᗒ╭╮ᗕ)ง

Mama Spider

What were you saying Baby Spider before Mr. Insomniac so KinDly interrupted?

Mr. Insomniac

Please don't kill me

Mama Spider

If I wasn't talking to my Baby Spider right now I might just come after you

Mr. Insomniac

Baby Spider!

Peter

What?!

Mr. Insomniac

KEEP TALKING

Peter

Okie Dokey

I got the cure to my boredom!

Mr. Insomniac

What?

Mama Spider

What?

Peter

A meme war!

Mr. Insomniac

Meme what?

Peter

*Very offended gasp*

WHAT DID YOU JUST SAY?

Mama Spider

Mr. Insomniac,

Do I really know something about teenage culture that you don't?

Peter

How do you know I'm a teenager?

Mama Spider

It's pretty obvious

And you just confirmed it

Peter

>:(

Mr. Insomniac

Wait...

So what's a meme war?

Mama Spider

It's where you battle by sending each other memes

Peter

And I am totally going to win!

Mama Spider

I may have a few up my sleeve

I guess you'll see

*Grinning*

Peter

Hey! No fair!

I didn't say go yet!

Mama Spider

Peter

Fine fine fine

GO!

(Author here. I just wanted to say that the meme above is one of my FAVORITES because it is totally me.)

Mr. Insomniac

Mama Spider

Peter

Mama Spider

Peter

Mr. Insomniac

Peter

Mr. Insomniac

Peter

Mr. Insomniac

Peter

Wait... Where'd Mama Spider go?

Mama Spider

I have been enjoying watching you guys duke it out

I didn't think Mr. Insomniac would get as into this as he has

Mr. Insomniac

I WILL WIN!

Peter

Nope

Oh! I just got asked to help someone with a project

So imma win this really quick

Mr. Insomniac

How are you going to do that?

You can't just win a battle off the fly because you want to

Peter

Watch me

Mama Spider

Mr. Insomniac concedes

Mr. Insomniac

Hey! No I don't!

Mama Spider

You are obviously no match for Baby Spider

Peter

Listen to the wise one here Mr. Insomniac

Mr. Insomniac

So me

Mama Spider

I didn't think anything you said would make me laugh

Peter

I really gtg now

Mama Spider

Okay

And good job at winning the meme war

Mr. Insomniac

No he didn't!

We are not done here!

Mama Spider

Are you really making me repeat myself again?

Mr. Insomniac

Okay okay!

I give in

You win

Peter

That was quick

Mr. Insomniac

You should see her murderous glare

Mama Spider

Bye Baby Spider!

For real this time!

Peter

Bye!

Mr. Insomniac

Bye!

I put down my phone and head over to Jake, who had asked for my help finding a bug in his project's programming. After finishing helping Jake fix the programming error and teaching him how to avoid making the error again, I decide to go around and see if I can help anyone else. In the end, I am able to help Justin adjust some wires so they can handle a higher voltage flow, assist Elaina in calibrating her project to a bluetooth headset, help Echo in a delicate operation on her circuit board, and avoid Flash.

When I finally run out of things to do, I head back to my own workstation.

Right when I sit down, Matt comes into the lab with a cup of coffee in his hands. He glances around the lab until he spots me.

He quickly walks over and sets the cup of coffee in front of me, "Hey Peter! Are you okay with delivering this to the same floor as yesterday? I'm told that they specifically requested you because you didn't touch anything in the lab when you dropped it off."

"No problem!" I chirp.

"Thank you so much Peter!" He turns and checks up on the other interns before walking out.

I grab the coffee sitting on my workstation desk in front of me, exit the lab, and head towards the elevator that goes high enough for me to reach floor thirty-eight.

When I step into the elevator, I actually remember this time to tell FRIDAY what I am doing, "Hey FRIDAY! I was asked to deliver coffee to floor thirty-eight again."

"You are good to go up Peter."

The elevator starts to rise, and just like last time, FRIDAY asks, "Please remember not to touch anything."

"Will do FRIDAY!" I bounce on the balls of my feet, ready to actually do something, even if it's just stepping out of the elevator to deliver coffee.

When I arrive, I notice that not much has changed outside of the stuff in the person's work area. It looks like they left in a hurry, with the chair knocked over on the floor. No one's in the lab again and so I go to set the coffee down at the same table as last time.

I glance up at the whiteboard after setting down the coffee to see if they got my paper. They did!

I smile a bit before pausing as my eyes find yet another mistake in the new equation.

I shyly speak up, "Hey FRIDAY?"

"Yes Peter?"

"Can I please touch the pad of paper and pencil again?"

"Of course Peter. Thanks for asking."

I smile and start to fix the mistake. This equation is a bit more challenging than the previous one, but I still finish it relatively quickly.

I decide to use a different magnet just for the fun of it to attach it to the whiteboard. I look at the options before picking out a magnet of Baymax from the movie Big Hero 6.

Once satisfied that the paper will stay, I head back to the elevator. I glance at my watch and breathe a sigh of both relief and annoyance when I see that I only have 45 minutes left in the internship day.

Tony's POV:

After finishing the meme war with Baby Spider, I decide to go work on an upgrade to my suit that I'm halfway done with.

Somehow, Pepper got me to actually sleep so I wasn't able to go to my lab at all yesterday, meaning that I never did end up finishing that upgrade. I yawn as the elevator door dings open and I step out into my lab. I glance around and walk to my main work area, avoiding everything on the ground. I sit down and get to work, still rubbing the sleepiness out of my eyes. I should have gotten some coffee.

After a while I lean back in my chair and sigh, glancing around the room for a clock, forgetting about the watch on my wrist. My eyes stop on the whiteboard next to me and my eyebrows scrunch down in confusion. What's that paper doing there?

A few days ago I got super frustrated because I couldn't solve the stupid problem on that whiteboard. I need the solution to upgrade my repulsers for my suit but I can't seem to figure the stupid problem out. A couple days ago I decided to take a break from the equation and moved onto other things.

I step closer and pull the paper out from under the pink unicorn magnet keeping it stuck onto the board. My eyes widen, Holy crap! This solves the equation!

"FRIDAY!" I nearly yell.

"Yes Boss?"

"Where did this paper come from?"

"A high school intern delivered some coffee that you ordered before you had to leave for a meeting. He is the one who solved the equation."

I glance over at the day-old coffee, Oh yeah, I forgot about that.

I grab the coffee and, while dumping it down the sink, an idea strikes me. I smile, throw away the now empty cups, and walk to the whiteboard. I flip it over to show a clean side and write a harder equation on the board that I had already solved a while ago. I start to write out the work to solve it but purposefully make a minor mistake, something that only someone who knows what they are doing can spot.

"Hey FRIDAY?"

"Yes Boss?"

"Can you send up another order of coffee and somehow make it so that the same kid brings it up? Oh! And can you give me a warning when he starts to come up?"

"Will do sir."

I smile and get back to work, waiting for the warning so that I can hide in the side room and see what the kid does.

I'm just finishing up with my tinkering when the elevator door dings and swooshes open. I have a mini panic attack when I realize it could be the kid. I stand up so fast that my chair lands on the floor with a thump.

"Woah there," A deeper voice than what I was expecting echoes throughout the lab.

I breathe a sigh of relief and turn around to face Bruce, "Sorry Bruce, I was expecting someone else."

Bruce raises an eyebrow, "Must be someone awful. Or Clint."

I crack a smile, "No, look." I show him the paper that I had re-magneted to the whiteboard, "This is the equation I couldn't figure out and then apparently this high school intern comes in and solves it."

"Wait. You just let a high schooler stroll into your lab?"

"No, no, no. He was delivering some coffee that I ordered and-"

"Forgot about." Bruce breaks in.

"No! Wait... how?"

"It's you we're talking about Tony."

I roll my eyes and continue, "and he looked at the board, noticed there was a problem, and solved it in less than ten minutes!"

Bruce shifts into a posture that shows how impressed he is. He glances around the lab and the piles of work around the room before turning back to me, "You know what I think?"

"What?"

"I think you need a personal intern."

"No, I... " I trail off when I realize the state my lab is in, "Okay, maybe I do. But who would be smart enough?"

"You should test the kid."

"Isn't that what I'm already doing?" I wave my hand at my purposefully wrong equation.

He looks at me like I am a little child, "Tony, you should do so while considering what you need in an intern."

I ponder that for a second, "That sounds smart."

He rolls his eyes at me.

There is a brief pause before I remember something, "Hey, why'd you come down here in the first place?"

Bruce's eyes widen and his mouth forms an 'o' shape, "Uhhh... The kitchen doesn't look like a kitchen anymore."

"The kitchen doesn't..." I trail off leaving my sentence hanging in the air in the form of a question.

"Yeeaaah...," Bruce rubs the back of his neck, "Let's just day that Clint had an idea for a prank and it worked too well."

"He WHAT? What did he do?"

"I don't even know how to explain it. You're just going to have to see it?"

I dash to the elevator and rapidly click the button, "I swear I'm going to lock all of the vent openings when he's in there and fill the vents with tear gas."

Bruce calmly steps in with me and when the elevator stops at its designated floor, he follows me as I stomp towards the kitchen, preparing myself for anything.

I never could have prepared myself for what I see what I turn the corner and stop in front of what was the kitchen, "WHAT THE--"

Five hours later...

I'm exhausted by the time everything gets figured out and we have some form of order. I start to think back to what I was halfway through in the lab before I got interrupted. Crap! I forgot the kid!

I groan and rush to the lab, only to see a piece of paper magnetized to the whiteboard. I quickly grab it and look over it. My eyes widen, This is perfect! He even figured out a faster way to solve it than what I did!

"FRIDAY?"

"Yes Boss?"

"Please pull up the footage for when the kid came with the coffee."

"Yes Boss." The footage pops up on my tablet and I start to watch it.

The kid steps out of the elevator, looks around at everything, and then goes to set the coffee on the table, careful not to touch anything on the ground. He spots the whiteboard and pauses. He asks FRIDAY if he could do the same thing that he did last time. After getting her permission he does so, sticking the paper to the whiteboard with a different magnet than what he used yesterday. With that finished, he exits.

While watching him work on the paper, my eyes widen at how fast he did it. He finished it in less than five minutes!

I wouldn't have believed it, even with the footage, if I didn't have his work right in front of me. I shake my head and walk over to the whiteboard. I'm going to test him one more time, just for curiosity.

I erase the equation there and write down a different equation, one that I never was able to solve, curious to see what he would do when he can't solve it.

"Hey FRIDAY?"

"Yes Boss?"

"Tomorrow can you do the same thing when I am in the lab? And can you notify me like tod-" I cut myself off, "Wait... you never notified me!"

You could hear a hint of mischief in FRIDAY's voice as she responds, "You were busy Boss."

"That doesn't matter! You were supposed to- You know what?! Fine, whatever. Just make sure to notify me next time, no matter what."

"Will do Boss."

I roll my eyes at her and get back to work.

Clint's POV:

After setting the countdown timer on one of my biggest pranks yet, I head towards the living room. When I step through the doorway the sound of laughter envelopes me. I search for the source and my eyes land on Tony, who is rolling on the floor clutching his stomach while laughing hard.

My eyebrows lower briefly when I realize I can hear two people laughing. I look around once again and see Natasha, NATASHA, laughing on the couch.

I choke on my spit in surprise and my eyes go round. Natasha is laughing, truly laughing, for more than a second!

I slowly back out of the room with my hands raised, even though they have been too busy laughing together to hear me.

If Natasha spots me I am so dead. But I have to go through the living room to get to the elevator. I think about it for a moment. Nope nope nope. Not gonna risk it.

I decide to take the vents instead.

I open a vent grate, hop up inside, and start to crawl to my destination. Halfway there an idea strikes me. Why is Natasha laughing? And HOW did someone get Natasha to laugh? I need to get to the bottom of this...

A scheme starts to form in my head.

A/N: Okay guys, I just have to ask you all to appreciate how LONG it took me to do the meme war. I hope all of my efforts didn't go to waste. See ya in the next chapter!  ✺◟(>ᗜ<)◞✺
