Hello, I have added the first two chapters of a Marvel novel that I'm planning to write in the future. I decided to include both chapters because the first chapter ends in an ambiguous way and I thought it would be easier to understand the story with two chapters. I would appreciate it if you could take a look at the chapters and give me feedback. Please keep in mind that it will take some time for me to complete the ones I am writing now, and I may not even write Marvel for the third one. The chapters are at the bottom of the chapter list, unnumbered. Title is "Marvel Fanfiction Teasers." Thank you.

Sahar and Mokami sat together on the rooftop, the city lights of Cairo twinkling below them and the full moon shining with its glory above them in endless black. The cool night air surrounded them as they ate their food, and they continued their conversation from earlier. Sahar was curious about Mokami's personal life, and she wanted to know more about his family.

As they ate, they talked about their personal lives. Mokami told Sahar about his family - his mother, Mika, his twin sister, Momo, and his little sister, Eri. He also mentioned that Eire was once their neighbor and Mika's best friend, and that Nejire, Eire's daughter, was their childhood friend and Mokami's girlfriend who is currently working with a pro hero in Japan.

Sahar listened intently, but she couldn't help but shiver for a second. She tried to hide it, but she couldn't help but twitch.

Mokami didn't seem to notice, and he continued to talk about his family. He mentioned how they all lived together now, and how he missed them since he started the internship with Sahar.

She also shared some details about her family. She talked about how her parents were both doctors and how they were very proud of her for becoming a hero. She also mentioned that she had an older brother who was also a hero, but they didn't talk much anymore.

As the conversation continued, Sahar couldn't help but feel drawn to Mokami's intelligence and compassion. Although he didn't share much, from how his eyes shone when he was talking about his family, she could ascertain that he truly loved them.

Before she knew it, they were both finished with their meal and were just enjoying the view of Cairo at night. Suddenly, Mokami leaned in close to Sahar and whispered, "You know, Sahar, I feel really lucky to be here with you."

A smile blossomed on Sahar's face as she looked into Mokami's eyes. She could feel the connection between them. Despite his young age, Mokami was very mature, and she could talk to him about anything. Mostly, maybe because of the status quo, she couldn't freely talk about others in her agency. And she didn't have many friends. But Mokami was different. Not only could understand her on an emotional level, he could also relate to her difficulties, and his answers were always supportive.. So she smiled and replied, "I feel the same way, Mokami."

Sahar went down stairs and returned with a couple of tea cups and a local tea urn that would keep it warm. After she filled both cups, she passed one to Mokami and sat back.

Mokami tasted the tea and asked, "What about the cultural differences between Egypt and Japan? Do you think that affects the way heroes operate?"

Sahar chuckled, "Definitely. The cultures are very different, but I think it's interesting to see how different countries approach hero work. In Japan, heroes are seen as role models, almost like celebrities. But here in Egypt, we're seen more as protectors."

Mokami grinned, "Yeah, and we have as many flashy hero costumes like in Japan."

Sahar laughed, "True, but I think our traditional clothing is just as cool."

Mokami took a sip of his tea and said, "So, Sahar, what do you think about the way heroes operate in Egypt?"

Sahar thought for a moment before replying, "Well, I think it's different from Japan. Heroes in Egypt have more regulations and restrictions on their powers. They have to follow specific protocols and can't act outside of them. But, it's also because the population here is higher and by proxy the population of Quirk users is higher in Egypt."

Mokami raised an eyebrow. "But don't you think that limits their abilities as heroes? I mean, in Japan, we're more free to use our Quirks to the fullest extent."

Sahar shrugged. "It's a matter of perspective. Sure, it may seem like we are more restricted, but it also means we have more training and experience working within those restrictions. Plus, it helps prevent collateral damage."

Mokami leaned back in his chair, crossing his arms. "But what about the villains? Do they have restrictions too?"

Sahar snorted. "Of course not. I know what you mean, but placing restrictions prevents formations of villain groups in the first place."

Mokami sighed. "I just don't like the idea of being told how to use my powers. Here, people cannot even use it to defend themselves. There is nothing stopping a person becoming a villain, and when push comes to shove, people should be able to fight back."

Sahar smiled. "I understand where you're coming from, but I think it's important to have regulations in place. It helps maintain the balance between heroes and villains."

"Then, what do you think about the current regulations on Quirk usage for the general populace? Do you think it's fair that people who don't want to become heroes are forbidden from even practicing their Quirks? It feels like they are at a disadvantage when it comes to using their powers in emergencies because they are not allowed to train them," Mokami asked, his voice tinged with curiosity.

Sahar put down her cup and gave it some thought. "I understand where you're coming from, Mokami. But I think the regulations are in place for a reason. Quirks can be incredibly dangerous, and not everyone has the self-control and discipline to use them responsibly."

"But what about those who do have the discipline and want to use their Quirks for personal reasons? It's not fair that they're not given the opportunity to develop their abilities," Mokami argued.

Sahar nodded. "I see your point, but it's a complicated issue. If we allowed everyone to use their Quirks freely, we'd have to deal with a lot more villains who have trained their abilities to use them for evil purposes. Plus, it's not just about personal responsibility, there are also societal and legal implications to consider."

Mokami furrowed his brow. "I absolutely agree with you on this. I am not saying there shouldn't be regulations, but Quirks are part of us, right? I just think it would be better if we were trained instead of being forbidden from using them. It is like tying a bird's wings because it might hurt others if it can fly."

Sahar leaned forward, a serious expression on her face. "Yes, that's a valid concern. But as heroes, we have to work within the system and make the most of the training and opportunities we're given. We have to use our abilities to protect and serve society, not just for our personal gain."

Mokami nodded slowly and changed the subject. It was clear that Sahar couldn't talk openly, taking in Sahar's words he said. "I understand what you're saying, Sahar. It's a complex issue, and there's no easy solution. But I appreciate your perspective on it."

Sahar smiled at him. "You are questioning, that is good. Don't worry about others judging you. Question everything."
