The rehearsal room thrums with spent electricity, the air thick with the echo of cymbals. Gwen Stacy's drumsticks are a frantic, pale blur against the dark kits, a storm she can't seem to stop. Her bandmates—MJ, Glory, and Betty—call her name, their voices weaving through the fading noise. She finally slows, her blonde hair plastered to her forehead with sweat, her blue eyes glinting with a weary defiance. Leaning over the drums, she feels the ghost of Peter Parker's absence settle like a weight across her shoulders. She hides the tremor in her hands behind a sharp, sarcastic smile, a shield against the vulnerability she refuses to show.
