Japan,
Peter Parker and Michelle Jones-Watson were two strange couples in love. They usually feel awkward about everything but sometimes are so blunt that it embarrasses them. But they were perfect for both.
However, Peter had to find a balance between work and life in order for his relationship to work. After all, currently, they were in their honeymoon period. Once some time passes, it becomes boring and frustrating, especially for MJ. This was the reality of most couples where one was a superhero.
Hector knew it as he was also guilty of it, having spent more time working than spending it with Diana. However, now that he had changed, he wished Peter to not go through that.
So Moony and Fenris were sent to create an air of romance. Of course, Ned needed to be kicked away first, so the two wolfies forced Ned to go away and look for a mate, too, instead of third wheeling.
Then they invited Peter and MJ to their penthouse in the hotel. They had enough space for them all, and seeing Moony and Fenrish sitting close, cuddling was going to make anyone feel romantic.
The two had not even kissed at this point, so they needed all the help they could get.
"Um... can you understand us?" MJ asked Moony.
The good boy nodded, but did not bark back, knowing they couldn't understand him.
"That's so amazing. Can I hug you?" She asked.
Moony was confused about it, as the woman should be hugging her boyfriend. She was asking too much from him. What if Fenris felt jealous? But he knew people loved his squishy fur. So he nodded.
"Aaaa..." She jumped and hugged the poor boy and ribbed her face on his fur.
Moony sighed and melted in his seat. He was used to all this.
...
Hector returned to Earth after winning the elections. In his seat, he wondered about what to do next. "Okay, which evil company should I mess with next? Hmm... Blackrock seems like a nice target. It's too big and... too monopolistic."
Deciding what to do, he lifted the phone and called the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. The man heading it was his person, so his order was supreme. Fury was left to deal with other things and didn't have any problem with Hector doing this.
"Yes, start an anti-trust investigation on Blackrock and break it into smaller pieces. Also, start an investigation into corruption and tax evasion with IRS."
After ordering such, he looked at the world map and decided to fix another country this time. He had already gone to a few African and Middle Eastern nations. Now Central Asia was still left.
The previous USSR-affiliated nations were still inflicted with cancer called Communist influence. They still didn't have a free government and were easily manipulated by the Russian government. This meant the leadership was corrupt and left the nation poor.
So, he once again took out his nice camera for the live stream and went to Tajikistan. It was the poorest nation in Central Asia, with more than half of its population living in poverty.
The nation faced a common problem that many others did. It had a dominant party system, where one party routinely had a vast majority in the parliament. Not to mention it was heavily influenced by Russia.
But, instead of going to the nation's capital, he went to the far away villages facing the same problem as most other African or Afghan villages—lack of resources.
As soon as he landed, he went live on his Youtube Channel, with a billion subscribers already. Yes, he was the biggest internet personality. But he knew that his presence at the top was demoralizing for other individual content creators.
So he ordered the staff to put him in a new category of creators, called Historical Figures." With that, he ensured that other content creators did not see him in their rankings.
"So, I am once again in a new sad nation that I am going to fix. As always, I am going to pick one of the content creators randomly to walk around with me and see the magic happening.
"So, start typing the names of the content creators you want me to bring here. The one with the most referrals wins. You have five minutes." He gave the task to his audience of 300 million.
However, for some reason, people started to spam a few words. "Subscribe to PewDiePie!"
Hector rubbed his beard. "Ah, isn't he the lad with the most subscribers right now?"
Soon, five minutes were done, and PewDiePie's name was selected. So Hector snapped his finger, and the man appeared beside him. But, it appeared that he was eating at that moment and had a sandwich half in his mouth.
He looked confused, as he had no idea about what was going on. "W-What?" .c(o)m
Hector explained. "Son, you were chosen by my viewers to accompany me as I fix the nation of Tajikistan. But you can deny, and I will send you back home."
"Are we live?" He asked.
"Yup, the number has jumped to 500 million viewers. I feel pity for the poor servers." Hector muttered.
The Swedish boy quickly ate his sandwich and cheered. "Hell yeah, I would love to participate in this."
"Then come along, boy. We're walking to the nearest village. As we do that, why don't you tell me what you think about the state of the world."
"The world? I think it needs to grow as fast as possible so one day I can go and see space, the moon, or even Mars." The man answered.
Hector laughed at that, "Yes, I can see a few sick-minded ones already planning to get themselves a space alien girlfriend. Well, that's probably not going to happen anytime soon; the world is not yet prepared to unite as one single entity.
"Come, let's help the folks here."
Hector moved like he always did, and waved his hands to create a nice big well, houses, and power stations. The nation's western side had a lot of vegetation, but the easter side was dry and mountainous. Creating a lot of problems.
So he created excellent long wide roads and also laid down a train track, not the high-speed one but a regular train track. Of course, he could not meddle in the nation's politics openly, but he hoped that the government would smartly utilize these new projects.
Next, the nation needed jobs. That he could not solve with a snap, but it was now solvable as there was enough water, electricity, and connectivity to invite major companies.
*Beep Beep*
All of a sudden, Hector's other phone rang, and President Fury was on the call.
"What's the matter? I'm streaming right now." He asked.
"Sir, Russians are very disturbed by your visit. They have locked their nuclear systems, not on your but various parts of the world."
Hector roared in laughter. "Bwahaha... Ah yes, the nukes, my greatest fears. Hang the call. I will address them on my stream."
Soon, Hector looked at the camera. "Kids, it seems someone didn't like me helping this land. So they are threatening us with nukes. Well, all I have to say is... Try me bitch!"
"Don't worry. No nukes can threaten this world in my presence. They are weapons of the past, from a dark era of our times. Anyway, let's get back to work."
He once again went back to making highways.
"How strong are weapons in space?' Pewdiepie asked.
"Strong enough to destroy planets, and they are just the middle leveled ones. There are bombs that can create a black hole where it hits. It's genuinely destructive and can even destroy a star quickly. I remember having a gun that could turn anyone into the air by pulverizing them in an instant.
"You can't imagine the level of technology up there. Thankfully, the federation is powerful enough to enforce laws."
Pewdiepie sighed, "That sounds scary and interesting."
"Lad, I don't know about alien planets, but the UN will send a manned mission to Mars next month. And by year-end, we will start tourism to the moon. It's not even expensive, so you can get the tickets." Hector announced to the world.
To him, all these felt normal, but the truth was, they were era-defining. Because if what he said happened, the era of space travel was beginning.

"Pepper, maybe I should start a live stream too. Look at this man. He's so popular."
Pepper scoffed, "You just want to feed your narcissism, don't you?"
"Come on, it's just a hobby, dear."
"Yes, yes, just like your debauchery."
"I've been clean ever since I started dating you. I promise." He looked into her eyes firmly.
At that, she smiled warmly. "Should I head pat you?"
Tony was taken aback. "Do you want to?"
"Yes!"
