random-opinion-that-no-one-asked-for time, i actually quite like the dynamic that Peter and Flash have in the MCU movies. the matter of their characters is another thing, but the way they interact i find quite interesting.

or rather, the i like way Flash interacts at Peter...

because Peter doesn& #39;t give a crap about Flash at all. their "dynamic" consists of Flash trying to berate Peter and Peter just brushing it off.

which is why i like it

in Homecoming, it reads very clear to me that Flash is secretly very jealous of Peter. Peter is obviously a high grade student, and he& #39;s easily physically capable as well due to being a teenager with secret superpowers

so Flash resorts to verbal abuse to try and put Peter down. except it never works, because Peter *doesn& #39;t care*. Flash gets an entire party to chant mocking names, and Peter barely reacts at all. even the idea of using his alt-id as Spider-Man to get clout is Ned& #39;s idea, not his.

after the Washington Momument scene, Flash calls after Spidey asking if he really knows Peter Parker. considering what we& #39;ve already seen of Flash, it makes sense that he& #39;d ask this. he wants to confirm the rumour cause he& #39;s worried about Peter having any amount of clout

ultimately it& #39;s not a deep characterization, and i think it& #39;s due to Tony Revolori& #39;s acting more than anything else. but i still prefer it over having a generic bully, and in truth it makes him far from a bully at all. which i think is cool
