Chapter Text
Steven is a master of all Egyptology and other side information, you are the grand master of all things heroic! A big book called "Who's who: book on the supers of the Marvelous Universe!" aka someone who had too much time on their hands wrote an encyclopedia on all the heroes and villains on this Earth– And those who are not. Everything, outside of real identity and weaknesses, about the known heroes, villains, and those in-between is in this book! You love this book! This book has been with you since you were a kid, the wear and tear are clear on it, you have it taped up and attached to updated books about extraordinary people and The Blip . You love reading this book, it inspired you to want to be greater than yourself.
There is a page left for kids to draw themselves as a hero (or villain), the first page has a drawing you made of yourself as Spider-Man. The next few pages have recent drawings of the vigilante of London! The 'Phantom in White' in two outfits in pictures that are not of the best quality.
One day, you hope 'Moon Knight' gets the page in the Who's Who like he deserves.
Oh, what if you wrote to the publisher with the shared information from the reddit forum and—
Cease such childish musings.
You do not like how Anubis can randomly tune into your thoughts. With a frown you shove away the long fabric you were trying to figure out, it's linen and black as the night sky. Sometimes you swear you can see sparkles that shine like stars blinking in the sky.
The cloak of Nephthys, Goddess of the sky (or night from what you read). It is told to by your art friend, the one who will be the successor to be Ptah's avatar, this cloak was used to turn day into night. It's a gift to help you on your mission to seal away Set. It will take a lot of power seal away, meaning whatever Anubis is doing you have to make sure it stays between Osiris, Horus, Ptah, and now you.
Even with those four the power needed to seal Set will need to be sealed away within a mortal vessel, then the vessel sealed away too. The logistics of that is something you do not know. Anubis just wants you to gain boons and stop certain operations.
It is said in order to obtain a boon with a God, you need something that connects them to the mortal realm. Like the cat to Bastet, it can be a living thing or an object. In this case, you need an object.
"Man, can't you ya know let a person dream?" Now you lost your train of happy thoughts thus your idea for the cloak.
The judgment (judgmental) God sighs, My apologies, mortal. Resume your task.
You hum then center your thoughts once more as you grab the fabric. Moon Knight's costume has you thinking, imagining, the details you sketched out when bored. The hood, cape, the bulking armor, the fine details escape you, however, the pictures of him are never taken well.
The TV is on in background on the news with Cleopatra watching it (you think), the usual depressing stuff until suddenly breaking news alert goes off.
Little one come look!
"Guys! How many of you can just pop in here!" Shouting out.
Many if we wish, that is besides the point. Look!
Moving from the kitchen to the living room to see the cat sticking a paw out.
"Holy shit!" Jumping up and down in excitement.
White dressed vigilante spotted fighting in the British Museum pursuing what seems to be a half human half lion creature.
"Bastet protect me I'm about to do something stupid as fuck!"
Huh!?
You ran out the door in your winter pajamas and coat.

If a guy from the Daily Bugle can take amazing photographs of the Amazing Spider-Man, then you can take pictures of the mysterious 'Phantom in White' aka Moon Knight! Your phone camera ready, it's dark and raining, you slipped in through the back (heh, sneaky sneak). The two people fighting Moon Knight are distracted by him, all you have to do is snap a photo or two… or three… Or record the fight like you are doing right now!
Gosh, you're smiling big and bright as Moon Knight doesn't miss a beat in beating the bad guys to the ground.
The suit he is wearing looks like the one from Cairo. Sad. You hoped he wore the three piece suit with batons, that one looked fancy, definitely fit the 'gentleman' theme here in the UK— Ish, definitely has the nice 'Gentleman Ghost' feel. Modernized?
You duck when a pillar is thrown in your direction without you being noticed. By now, crawling away, you check your phone to see your photo gallery full of recordings and pictures at different angles.
His cape is short, good to know thus meaning he doesn't use it.
You zoomed into one of the thighs noticing hieroglyphs written on it; going to ask Steven later about that.
Weapons. Need those. Training too.
A guy is sent flying above your hiding spot.
You took a picture of the body on the floor groaning in pain then turned around to record once more the fight. Enjoying yourself as Moon Knight fights the bad guys and you are living the comic book dream.
What happened next was too fast for you to process, so fast you were still using one hand to record the events unfolding.
The classic hostage held at gunpoint with the hero forced to watch. Though you weren't scared and instead in awe as the suit changed to one with the cape.
"Ooo."
"Shut up!" Rough you up as the bad guy digs the nozzle of the gun against your head. Moon Knight says nothing as he prepares to make a move.
"Don't yell in my ear, man."
You have no idea how much panic is running through Steven, Marc, and Jake's shared mindscape.
Or how surprised they are with how you slip out the soon to be dead man's grasp.
"Yay, go get'em!"
Two types of people: you and your boyfriend(s).
