"About 2 o'clock, I think," Peter said.
"What were doing?" Harry asked. "Man, I never figured you for the party animal type, but these last couple of months..."
"I was trying to get some photos," Peter said. "But it turned out to be nothing."
"Oh," Harry said, apparently disappointed that his roommate hadn't proven to be a veritable party animal. "Did you catch the Bugle this morning?"
"No, and I'd rather not worry about it," Peter said. "I've got a test today, then I'll worry about work."
"I'm on my way out to class myself," Harry said, grabbing his bag and heading for the door. "Catch you later."
"Yeah," Peter said. "Later."
The door slammed shut behind Harry, leaving Peter Parker alone with his thoughts. For the moment he thought that the other spider had it right. All he wanted to do right now was relax, and, surprisingly enough, schoolwork qualified when compared to webslinging.

Kodachi felt just about dead tired, but she didn't dare go to sleep just yet. Her muscles were aching and sore in ways she hadn't experienced since her earlier days of training to be a gymnast. There was evidence of bruising about her jawline from where she had slammed into the wall.
Kodachi had no desire, however, to spend her entire day moping about her estate and doing hardly anything. The day was a day to relax and recover, and she felt like investigating just what the Americans her age did on days when they had no school and no business to attend to.
A little make-up worked to cover up her bruise and the remainder of her injuries were not serious enough that she couldn't hide them.
"It is time for a day, out on the town," Kodachi said to herself. "I believe that's the phrase."
