Leopardon's Journal: Entry No. 1.
"Hi, my name is Leopardon and I am the kwami ?of the Miraculous of Responsibility and Fate, which is better known as the Spider Bracelet, and today I come to you to talk about my thoughts about the current guardian of my Miraculous, the young man, Peter Benjamin Parker Fitzpatrick.
The truth is that compared to the time it took me to get to know all the Spider-Men before Peter, it took me very little time to understand that brainless teenager.
The day I met Peter, he was a simple nerd who was starting high school at Midtown School in New York. I also noticed that he was quite cowardly, because when I appeared in front of him, he almost fainted.
After that little incident, we introduced ourselves to each other and I explained him the basics about the Spider Bracelet, which he immediately tested.
Needless to say, he was too inexperienced to avoid buildings when he tried to swing around in his webbing.
However, there was something I didn't count on, and it was that Peter was not ready to handle the Miraculous of Responsibility as it was right. That led me to have several arguments with him, because he used his powers for his own benefit and in a rather perverse way.
To his bad luck, he learned in the worst way that, as his uncle had told him, with great power comes great responsibility.
And although I don't like to reproach him or remind him of that particular event, mainly because I know very well that Peter will probably never forgive himself for having allowed it to happen, Ben Parker's death taught Peter the value of responsibility, and what could happen if he was reckless and irresponsible again.
Unfortunately, despite being a good hero and always being there to help, fate seems to want Peter to suffer endlessly, as examples there are the insults and slander he has to hear from the neurotic chief editor of the Daily Bugle and those who follow his Words, the octopus man that wanted to steal his body, everything the Green Goblin, the octopus and the fat man have made him suffer, and more recently, the death of his perfect girlfriend.
It hurts me to see a guy as good as Peter suffer this way, especially since that has fractured his mind, and although he doesn't want to admit it, I know that my young spider still suffers after all this.
That leads me to say that I am very proud of him, and also very astonished. Peter is someone truly admirable as he is always able to get up, regardless of anything.
Today I am happy to know that Peter is much more responsible, at least when he wants to be. He can be clumsy, careless, forgetful, irresponsible, reckless, naive and ugly, especially the last, but all that is compensated with creativity, versatility, ingenuity, intelligence, sense of duty and a will that is stronger than adamantium.
As I once said, Peter is probably the smartest Spider-Man I have ever had, and most likely, he will become not only the best of all my spiders, but the best of all the Earth's heroes."
Well, that ends our first Miraculous Spider-Man hidden file.
I had this little idea today (03-20-2017), thinking about how I could improve the plot and speed things up so that they did not have to wait a month between MSM chapters. What I came up with was a series of one-shots, drabbles and diary entries of the most important characters, clarifying facts from the past that will not be seen in the current story, opinions of the characters about events or other characters, Or simply where Peter, Marinette, Adrien, Harry and the others will coexist in a more youthful and human way, something like what Thomas Astruc and his creative team do with the Miraculous Ladybug webisodes.
And well, to finish this author's note, if you haven't checked, I updated Miraculous Spider-Man too, and added a small section that I called "the Review Corner," where I will answer almost all the related doubts about the plot, like what arcs from the comic books will be included, which characters will appear, suggestions, etc.
For now, I say goodbye and hope you like the new way to enjoy Miraculous Spider-Man.
