"So you've come to the end now alive but dead inside."
I take it you haven't read much X-Men. The chronological age of the parents doesn't matter in what is essentially sci-fi there are many workarounds.
PS What do you think of the idea logistics aside? I rather like it. The only thing I might change is to give the kid powers. I think this idea would be very interesting if not in 616 in an AU (alternant universe) setting instead.
"So you've come to the end now alive but dead inside."
I've read some X-Men. But yeah, with Cable and Rachel, time is no obstacle!
It's entirely possible, although it would change the relationship between the two adults, so it might work more in an au. But, I think seeing a Spider-Marvel hybrid power set wouls be interesting.
Indeed, I also think the AU dynamic between Carol and Jessica would be interesting to explore if they were lovers or better yet married. "Drew" could be an interesting character too. I would start with her having no powers until she is a teen and thus feeling like an outsider being a bit judgy of her moms (along with "superhero celebrity culture" in general) then on her sixteen birthday everything is turned upside down.
"So you've come to the end now alive but dead inside."
Maybe she'd chose to gain her powers, but her parents are split on the idea
Honestly, since they've recently expandes the Spider-family in the last decade, I think a character with the wall-crawler/web powers but otherwise completely different powers from the regular Spider-hero would be cool.
Perhaps that could work. Although, I prefer the idea of her rejecting superheroes only to then gain powers. However, one parent could support Drew's initial desire to somehow "fix" herself (become "normal" again) while the other thinks she needs to deal with the situation as it stands (the reality of things rather than searching for a "quick fix").
Oh, I agree completely about the unique power-set potential.
Dang, sometimes I hate being a prolific fanfiction writer so many good ideas so little free time, alas....

It would also be interesting to see what other younger gen heroes she'd interact with.
I wonder if we'll ever see Carol and Jessica interact in the MCU. With Spider-woman rights issues, I can't be sure
"So you've come to the end now alive but dead inside."
Carol should be, considering she was in the USAF before she met Mar-Vell and activated her super powers. It would've taken her years to attain the rank she has so she should've been at least mid 20s then - and over a decade has passed in-universe since then. She's probably pushing 40. Jessica's a bit younger than Carol, I'd say closer to 30 - biologically anyway (her origin involves cryostasis, which is why she's biologically younger than her younger brother).
