Owner	Pose
Peter Parker	It felt a bit funny to him, approaching his home from above, swinging on a strand of webbing. But there had been a lot of strange feelings over the past few weeks since he had taken on the role of the Spider. The Lair of Kraven the Hunter came more clearly into focus as he dropped down, doing a few twists along the way as he pushed the limits of the agility of this body. It truly was exceptional, and he had not expected quite so much vitality out of it. And yet, here he was. He drops onto the roof after his launch from the web, and scales down the side, gently opening the window of his bedroom from outside. One of the many benefits the Spider has - sliding glass along with the barest of pressures.
Gwen Stacy	Within it's quiet, only candles lighting up in the corners of the large room. One change Calypso had done when Kraven's actual body had been brought over. Among a few more changes. Kraven's body lied at the center of the room, over on a stone table carved in ritualistic runes. It kept the body preserved. But more importantly, it kept Peter's mind, which was now inside Kraven's body, dormant. The magic was palpable, more so due to Calypso actually being present, the ebon sorceress standing near Kraven's body, busying herself with a rather large, sharp knife. The scent of blood was just enough to be noticeable it had been used recently. On Kraven's body while he was absent being Peter? Perhaps making one wonder what was Calypso's actual agenda here. Whatever that agenda is she isn't sharing, instead she saying, "Welcome home, hunter. Was it a fruitful evening." her accent quite visible in her voice.
Peter Parker	Curling his body around the bottom of the window, he pulls himself into the room, flipping once to land on his feet across the room. A smile appears on his face as he regards Calypso, and slowly he nods. "All evenings have been fruitful since I took over the Spider," he replies, that smile broadening. "I had not dreamed of such power as this child possesses, and yet here I am, more potent than ever." He pulls the mask off, allowing Calypso to gain upon the visage of Peter Parker. Even as his words continue. "Have you had any trouble with the ritual? Is there any reason to doubt that it can be sustained until I have had my fill of the Spider's life?"
Gwen Stacy	The tall woman turns to finally regard Peter, smile showing sharp teeth, "The ritual holds." she tells him with solemnity. "For now." which means nothing lasts forever. She strides across the room when Peter unmasks himself, reaching up with her hand to take hold of the man's chin. Not exactly in a tender manner but more of someone picking a horse by it's muzzle to examine it's face. "Nothing comes for free." she tells him, "The more you find yourself in his body the more you will be changed yourself." a beat, "Will you be able to return to your body after it's done?" she asks. Sharp nails are felt against Peter's cheeks as she turns the face from one side to the other, "Or will you yearn for this power ever after?"
Peter Parker	A slow nod of acknowledgement. And then, a brief expression of concern. Peter looks to Kraven's body, wondering what has changed. What has yet to change. And the question she has spoken. "I had thought that I would want to," he starts, but does not complete that thought. He had not yet wrestled with that aspect of things. The return to his old form. Peak human condition, of course, but still human. While the Spider? The Spider was something else entirely. Allowing, for a moment, the face to be manipulated, at the question Kraven snaps his attention back to Calypso. "Why would I not? It far exceeds any I could have aspired to on my own." He gives her a bit of a predatory grin. "Perhaps you would find the benefits of it as well."
Gwen Stacy	"Ahhhhh...." Her sharp teeth showing as she continues to manipulate Peter's face, slow yet there's a firmness to her grasp. Strength. Which wasn't present before. One wonders what kind of rituals she has been doing herself while Peter is absent and lets her remain with Kraven's body. "Taken a bite of the forbidden fruit...." a beat, "... and now it is all too hard to return." She expected this. That much is evident. "There are many paths for power." She tells Kraven, "They come at a terrible price, but they can be achieved." her voice alluring. "You are now having a taste of some, but it does not mean it is all you should aspire to..." she has moved closer now, clearly having no fear of that predatory grin. For she was a predator herself.
Peter Parker	The newfound strength in Calypso is surprising. And disconcerting. The Spider does his best not to squirm under her touch, summoning forth his strength of will to not show any sign of fear or disquiet. She always had her mystical powers, of course, but he was always a match physically. Now he was in an even stronger form, and somehow, so was she? Where was she siphoning this from? "Too true, but again, if one can keep it, why not? I am under no obligation to return this form." He looks into her eyes, trying to get a sense of her. That was always a thing he could do, when he could capture the eyes of his prey. He is not sure, suddenly, however, whether she was truly prey for him anymore. At least, in the way that she used to be. "Is there more that I can achieve?" Perhaps a challenge will get her to speak more of her own.
Gwen Stacy	Calypso's powers have always been mysterious. Where did they come from? Had she been using Kraven for her own ends? It was quite possible for who knows what those rituals actually did. Not that she seemed -as- strong as Peter was now, but still strong. There's a grin on her expression. Did she detect the uncertainty? "You are not." She admits about not having to return the form. "But can you live forever within the body of your worst enemy?" she asks, "Without him knowing you have defeated him thoroughly?" "No. I don't think you can." The hand drops from the Peter's face, "Yet now you know him. Fully. All he can do, all he cannot. You are ready to destroy him." No doubt in the witch's voice, pointed teeth showing.
