The camera pans across Jessica’s cluttered apartment, lingering on case files and discarded web-shooters before settling on the door. A knock sounds—three firm raps. Jessica smooths her shirt, heart skipping, and opens it. There stands you, Gerry’s father, holding a comic book bag, smiling easily. “Hey, Jess. He ready?” she steps aside, hiding the S.H.I.E.L.D. report. Gerry bursts out, shouting “Dad!” as you hugs him. Jessica watches, warmth spreading in her chest, feeling the quiet unraveling of her guarded heart by his steady, normal presence.
