Two Moments To Change Everything
Some people say you get one moment in your life where, in the space of just that moment, the decision you make will shape everything from then on for you.

Phil Urich was about to have two.

Life was pretty good. Uncle Ben and even the higher-ups at the Bugle had received his work on the Latveria story well, and everyone seemed to love his pictures. The old man had even asked him to help with another research project, doing site-photography for decomissioned H.A.M.M.E.R. facilities and other holdings by Osborne. Phil didn't have the heart to tell his uncle how the last round of investigating anything Osborne had gone, so he agreed.

He'd just been finishing snapshots of a helipad center when something in the back of his brain tickled him just a little. The same sort of impulse that had made him steal Chris' pendant. The same sort  that had driven him to cut the deal with Fujikawa. The same sort that had let him know just who to call to put Hollow into protective custody.

And, of course, with his track record in decision making, he found himself in a safe-house, having keyed something in on a pad, he was pretty sure.

"...woah."

Next generation Goblin gear adorned the walls. A fully functioning workshop, safe-house, and small manufacturing depot.

"This... this is..."

No. No, he's not allowed to make any kind of decision about this. Not in his current state of mind. He goes out, gets a cup of coffee, and comes back, trying to make sense of it all. He's about two sips in when he hears the door at the end of the hallway open again, and he dives behind a console in terror.

Phil's laughter finally subsides, and he peers at the phone, picking it up and trying to approximate his downed opponent's voice.

"It's all fine. Just had to clear out some refuse. You'll get what's coming to you. Change in plans though. Gonna have to do a cash drop. Text me the time and place that works for you." He ends the call.

...okay, why did you just do that, Phil? You need to get this guy disarmed, tied, and call Captain America or something

You need to get away from all of this.

You need to get away.

You need to get all this stuff away.

There's some fumbling as Phil wrenches the mask free from Kingsley, holding it up at eye level.

"S'alright?" He chuckles, grin stretching his face again, as he shifts tones. "S'alright."

Later that night, there's a chorus of shrieking laughter and a putrid exhaust trail as Roderick Kingsley is dumped, gagged and bound, in front of 1 Police Plaza, as a manic figure streaks away through the sky.
