Summary
Spider-Man's eyes start to sting.
He's supposed to wear bright spandex like skin and have white lenses for eyes. The brown hair sprouting from his head doesn't instill a sense of rightness in his heart. The slope of his nose and set of his lips might as well have been freshly molded out of clay. His eyes—a deep brown, framed by thick eyelashes—aren't something he's grown up seeing in the mirror every morning. He has to notice these things. They're not things he knows.
There's no itch in the back of his head telling him that this is right. That this is him. It's just silent, and it makes something in his chest curl with a bone-deep dread.
Who is he supposed to be?
When Doctor Strange casts the spell to make everyone forget Peter Parker, it affects everyone—including Peter. With his memory of his civilian life gone, Spider-Man has to navigate a city he's pretty sure he's not supposed to be in with no real idea of his circumstances. The city's vigilantes are the worst part, though—why do they all seem to hate him so much?

Summary
“Wild, look out!”
He swiveled his head back towards Four. Eyes suddenly blown wide, a striking contrast from the triumph from a second before, Four was staring at something behind him, terror in his eyes.
Four took a running step forward, and Wild took that opportunity to look behind him, cursing. He’d let his guard down.
Four’s warning rang in his head, and he tried to move out of the way. He really did.
But he was too slow.
The last thing he saw before it all went dark was the monster’s giant club aiming right for his head, its wielder sneering with glee.
And then, for the second time in less than ten minutes, Wild died laying bloody on the cold, hard ground.
----------
In a fight against a large group of monsters, Wild dies after being isolated from the group. It’s no big deal, though, because Mipha heals him right back up, and he rejoins the others without anyone noticing a thing.
However, Mipha’s Grace has a time limit. After being used once, Mipha has to wait to regain her power before it can be used again.
And Wild dies a second time.
