    It's the scene that matters, some leeway has to be given to those within it considering that we are dealing with Comic Book characters.
    Sorry, just… musings. I know what you meant. Maybe, it’s the word “normal” that has triggered these thoughts…

    Gwen and Ben, sitting on a bench sharing a blunt. Can't get more normal than that.

    Good one! The answer, as you well know, is either one, depending on which version you bought.
