Summary
“Um… Mr. Murdock, sir?” The kid asks, almost for clarification but something tells Matt he doesn’t need it. But he nods anyway, and the kid continues. “I was hoping maybe you could give me some legal advice? I’m in a bit of a… tough financial and maybe legal situation,” the kid continues, stuttering nervously and unable to look at Matt directly. Matt cocks his head to the side, studying the kid in front of him. He waits, and sure enough the kid explains on his own. “You see I don’t have a job and haven’t been able to pay rent, but legally it’s been… difficult for me to get a job, if that makes sense?” Matt is confused, but legal issues he can help with.
“Well, let’s see what we can help you with, Mr…” he trails off, gesturing for the kid to fill in the blank. The teenager shifts uncomfortably in his seat, hesitating for half a second before answering, almost like he’s unsure of his own name.
“Parker. Uh. Peter Parker, sir.”
As soon as the kid says his name, something in Matt pauses. He’s sure they’ve never met before, and yet…
He tilts his head a little to the left, listening intently to Peter as he asks,
“Have we met before, Mr. Parker?”

Ly5 blinked.
"Who?" Isse asked, confusion sketching across their face.
Joehillssays joined the game.
And as Ly5 watched, at least 20 new messages rapidly followed, each signalling the arrival of a new player to the world.
"What," Ly5 said deliberatingly, lifting his head to stare into the eyes of everyone else in the room, "is this?"

Summary
An eclipsing binary consists of two close stars moving in an orbit so placed in space in relation to Earth that the light of one can at times be hidden behind the other. Binary star systems are very important in astrophysics because calculations of their orbits allow the masses of their component stars to be directly determined, which in turn allows other stellar parameters, such as radius and density, to be indirectly estimated.
(or: Danny is not quite a ghost in much the same way as he is not quite a human; it follows that the pretenses of one would be just as hard to keep up as those of the other.)
