''Real Folk Blues: A Peni Parker – Spider-Man Noir Story'' is a ''WesternAnimation/SpiderManIntoTheSpiderVerse'' fanfic written by [[https://forums.spacebattles.com/members/jnewbold54.367388/ JNewbold54]]. As the title suggests, the show narrates the odd friendship that develops between the [[ComicBook/SpiderManNoir Peter Parker]] of a 1933 FilmNoir New York and Peni Parker from the year 2140 of a future AlternateTimeline, after the latter gets stranded in the former's dimension. Peni is now forced to adapt to this new universe while the duo does their best to figure out who created the dimensional rift that sent her there and how to stop them from causing more damage.

-->'''Peni''': “ATLANTIS! That-that-that’s just not fair! My universe spends years painstakingly researching the technology for this, and you lot just get it – dropped into your hands, like a new toy! No wonder you can build Mechs in the 1930’s!”

** Noir!Rhino is also a mecha that SP//dr gets to fight with.

* PsychicLink: Peni has a telepathic connection with her spider, SP//dr, which allows her to do such things as eavesdrop on conversations

* SpidersAreScary: The spiders that bit Peter years ago are pretty ugly, terrifying, and violent. Peter adopts the Spider alias directly because of this.

* WiseBeyondTheirYears: Peni Parker, due to being SP//dr pilot since she was a young child. Outside being a GadgeteerGenius, this mainly comes in the form of her being un-phased by the more brutal parts of the job. In particular, Peter is surprised that Peni's brooding after [[spoiler: the death of several officers at the hand of Rhino]] isn't because she isn't used seeing events like that, but because she felt she could have easily prevented it. Later, she's completely nonplussed by [[spoiler: Electro getting brutally killed]]. Then again, it was his own [[TooDumbToLive fault]].

* RealityEnsues:
** The SP//dr mech is made of technology both from another dimension and 200 years more advanced than anything in the Noir-verse. This gives Peni an advantage over most enemies in 1933, but also means that proper repairs after fights are impossible due to the tools and materials needed not existing yet. She to substitute everything with sheet metal as a result.
** As pointed out above, just because some people have no problem with foreign people doesn't mean they won't feel a bit uncomfortable when interacting with them.

* {{Adorkable}}:
** Peter blushes and stumbles on his words when he meets Gwen Stacy, much to the amusement of Peni. It doesn't last long.
** Peni herself has the mannerisms and awkwardness you expect a child of her age to have.

!!''Real Folk Blues: A Peni Parker – Spider-Man Noir Story'' has examples of:

* AdaptationalHeroism: The Doctor Octopus of Peni's dimension is a rare example of a purely heroic Doc Ock in the multiverse. Peni who speaks very highly of him, with her keeping a photograph of him (in his signature outfit), Daredevil, herself, and SP//dr inside her mech suit.

* BadassAdorable: Peni Parker, who is also overlaps a BadassBookworm (she knows how to repair and maintain her mech) and CuteBruiser (she's surprisingly muscular for an eleven-years-old girl).

* DeliberateValuesDissonance: The fanfic doesn't shy away from the fact that not only are the 1930s an awkward time to be Asian in the United States, but that those with mixed heritage are even more subject to discrimination. Even people that have no problem against Asian people are still somewhat uncomfortable interacting with them, as Peni eventually learns.

** Depending on your viewpoint, Peni's brief attraction towards both Peter and Tony Stark could count as this. The former is (technically) her half-brother while the latter is old enough to be her dad, as Peter points out.

* WiseBeyondTheirYears: Peni Parker, due to being SP//dr since she was a young child. Outside being a GadgeteerGenius, this mainly comes in the form of her being un-phased by the more brutal parts of the job. In particular, Peter is surprised that Peni's brooding after [[spoiler: the death of several officers at the hand of Rhino]] isn't because she isn't used seeing events like that, but because she felt she could have easily prevented it. Later, she's completely nonplussed by [[spoiler: Electro getting brutally killed]]. Then again, it was his own [[TooDumbToLive fault]].

** Peter blushes and stumbles on his words when he meets Gwen Stacy, much to the amusement of Peni.

* OlderThanTheyLook: Peter has a rugged face, and the stress of being the Spider is already making him get grey hair, making him appear to be in his 30s, despite the fact that he's only 19-years-old. Peni actually assumes their cover story would be that she's his daughter until he reveals this fact.

* LostTechnology: The technology level for Peter's universe is what you'd expect for the time period, outside the existence of room-temperature superconductors, which absolutely stuns Peni. She spends a good while gripping about how it took a few extra centuries for her dimension to figure out the tech, while the Noir dimension just had it sitting around in {{Atlantis}} for Tony Stark to find.

* LostTechnologu: The technology level for Peter's universe is what you'd expect for the time period, outside the existence of room-temperature superconductors, which absolutely stuns Peni. She spends a good while gripping about how it took a few extra centuries for her dimension to figure out the tech, while the Noir dimension just had it sitting around in {{Atlantis}} for Tony Stark to find.

* HeroicBastard

* OlderThanTheyLook: Peter has a rugged face, and the stress of being the Spider is already making him get grey hair, making him appear to be in his 30s, despite the fact that he's only 19-years-old.

** Peni has multiple different types of mechas back at her homeworld. However, she's only limited to only one mecha in the Noir universe.
** Noir-universe Rhino is also a mecha that SP//dr gets to fight with.

''Real Folk Blues: A Peni Parker – Spider-Man Noir Story'' is a ''WesternAnimation/SpiderManIntoTheSpiderVerse'' fanfic written by [[https://forums.spacebattles.com/members/jnewbold54.367388/ JNewbold54]]. It narrates the odd friendship between Peter Parker from 1933 and Peni Parker from 2140 after the latter gets stranded in the former's dimension and is forced to adapt to this much more DarkerAndEdgier universe while Peter is doing his best to protect her.

* AdaptationalHeroism: It seems Dr Octopus of 2140 is completely heroic according to Peni who speaks very highly of him. In fact, Peni has a photograph where he is shown with his signature outfit alongside his mechanical tentacles and he's smiling alongside Daredevil, Peni and the SP//dr suit.

** Peni herself has the mannerism and awkwardness you expect a child of her age to have.

** The noir versions of J. Jonah Jameson is a paragon of journalism and a ReasonableAuthorityFigure according to Peter, much to the shock of Peni whose version of J.J.J. is a {{Jerkass}} ConspiracyTheorist who doesn't like her one bit.
** Noir!Tony Stark is a millionary, AdventurerArchaeologist and the most advanced inventor of his time being the designer of his top of the line PoweredArmor. Peni has yet to describe her version of Stark.
* AlternateSelf: Both Spider-Noir and Peni are alternate counterparts of each other. They both have a very uncanny facial resemblance, they both have similar names, they both are spider-themed superheroes and they both share the same father.
* BadassAdorable: Peni Parker, she also overlaps with BadassBookworm (she knows how to repair and maintain her mech) and CuteBruiser (she's surprisingly muscular for an eleven-years-old girl).
* ComicBookMoviesDontUseCodenames: Peni Parker doesn't have a secret identity being publicly known as the chief pilot of the SP//dr program. In the noir universe, she does adopt the SP//dr codename to keep her identity a secret for [[DeliberateValuesDissonance practical]] [[HalfBreedDiscrimination reasons]].
* CompositeCharacter: Both Spider-Man Noir and Peni Parker borrow elements from the movie and their comic book counterpart.
** With Spider-Man Noir, much of his background story and personality are taken from his comic book series while being a HardBoiledDetective like in the movie.
** In the case of Peni, her background story is mostly from the comic books; but her personality, age and MiniMecha are directly from the movie.
* DeadpanSnarker:
** Peter Parker, it comes from being Spider-Man.
** [[LittleMissSnarker Peni]] is an even bigger snarker than him.
* DeliberateValuesDissonance: One of the main themes of this fanfic is Peni having to deal with a lot of the social problems of 1933.
** Racial discrimination against Asian people is very present in the story, in fact, Peter has to warn Peni that she can't go out without him due to her being a half-breed girl.
** Even people that have no problem against Asian people are still somewhat uncomfortable interacting with them as Peni eventually learns.
* FaceOfAThug: Peter Parker is over 6 feet tall with a very imposing appearance. This is a major annoyance for his social life, but extremely useful for his double life as the Spider-Man.

* HalfBreedDiscrimination: Discusses a lot early on, being Peter's and Doctor Strange's greatest concert for Peni. In practice, it's downplayed. The worst thing Peni get are stares, unfriendly glares and a few InnocentlyInsensitive comments from a few characters.

* HypocriticalHumor: On one chapter, Peni berates Peter for having his office always dirty. Peter counters by saying the inside of her mech to be just as untidy, by pointing out a piece of gum on her armrest. Soon enough Peni discovers her school uniform and her phone inside one of the compartments... that she lost last week!

* LikeBrotherAndSister: Peter and Peni have this dynamic as soon as they meet each other.
* MetaphoricallyTrue: Peter's lie to Aunt May that Peni might be his half-sister works because his story is technically true if taken in the right context. Peni's father is Richard Parker, she's an orphan girl, she has nowhere to go due to being dimensionally displaced and her strong facial resemblance to Peter is convincing enough to diverge any doubts.

* NoAccountingForTaste: Sadly, both versions of Richard Parker had marriages problems.
** In the Noir-verse, Richard was always wandering off without explaining to his family why, to the point that Aunt May suspected he might be cheating on his wife.
** For the 2140-verse, Richard wasn't even married to Yuri Watanabe, Peni rarely got to see her father before his death.

* OlderThanTheyLook: Peter has a rugged face and he is starting to get grey-hair, making him looks like he's in his late 30, despite the fact that he's only 19 years old.
* PaedoHunt: The cute appearance of Peni Parker has drawn a lot of paparazzi attention to her, so the mob[[note]]actually heavily implied to be Daredevil[[/note]] [[ShamedByAMob reacted by tying them up to a bridge with a sign saying "LEAVE THE KID ALONE, CREEPS!"]]. You know its bad when she has to bring bodyguards to school.
* PsychicLink: Peni has a telepathic connection with her spider, SP//dr. It also allows Peni to eavesdrop a conversation through SP//dr.

** The SP//dr mecha is 200 years advanced in technology compared to the mechs in the Noir-verse, Peni obviously has an advantage over most enemies in 1933. However, most of the tools needed to repair and maintain her mech don't exist in 1933, she has to resort to sheet metal to repair what she can to the armor.

* SilentSnarker: SP//dr can't talk, he can only express his emotions through a PsychicLink with Peni, sure enough ''annoyance'' is a common reaction from him.
* SpidersAreScary: The spiders that bite Peter years ago are ugly and terrifying-looking spiders. Peter himself invoked it by adopting the name Spider-Man due to their scary reputation.
* WiseBeyondTheirYears: Peni Parker. Apart from her being a GadgeteerGenius, she's also very aware of the racial discrimination against Japanese immigrants of the 1930s. She's also familiar with the concept of death, [[spoiler: lamenting the death of several officers at the hand of Rhino, but she's not devastated. More notably, she doesn't mind Electro getting brutally killed, then again it was his own [[TooDumbToLive fault]].]]

* AdaptationalHeroism: It seems Dr Octopus of 2140 is completely heroic according to Peni who speaks very highly of him. In fact, Peni has a photograph where he is shown with his signature outfit and his mechanical tentacles and he's smiling alongside Daredevil, Peni and the SP//dr suit.

* ComicBookMoviesDontUseCodenames: Peni Parker doesn't have a secret identity being publicly known as the chief pilot of the SP//dr program. In the noir universe, she does adopt the SP//dr codename to keep her identity a secret for [[ValuesDissonance practical]] [[HalfBreedDiscrimination reasons]].

* WiseBeyondTheirYears: Peni Parker. Apart from her being a GadgeteerGenius, she's also very aware of the racial discrimination against Japanese immigrants of the 1930s.

Peter Parker had often thought about the future. He had never expected it to come to him. Now he has to deal with a dimensionally displaced half-sister who really doesn't belong in 1930's New York. It's been that sort of day.
