Summary
And then there’s a loud crash down the hall, because of course there is. A nice recliner is too good to be true, and Rhodey should’ve known better. He stands, a slight limp in his step as he rushes down the hall. “Peter?” he calls, peering into each room he passes by. At the end of the hallway is a closed door, and he can hear sounds of movement on the other side. “Kid?”
(In the wake of his secret being uncovered, Peter makes a rash decision).

Summary
Peter nods, trying to act nonchalant despite his white knuckled grip on the steering wheel. “If we get in a crash and, like, die,” he says, “it's not my fault.”
“You weren’t even going a mile per hour,” Tony says. “If we get in an accident at that speed, it’s definitely your fault.”
“Nothing’s impossible, Tony."

Winter has come, and it’s hit them hard.
“It’s like we’re—it’s like we’re camping,” Peter tries to joke, though he struggles to get the words out as he shivers. “O—or homeless.”
“The second one,” Tony says, holding his own hands over the fire. They bump into Peter’s occasionally as they both shake. “Definitely the second one.”

“We’re going in there,” Peter says. “Right now. I’ll die if we don’t.”
“If we run into a single zombie clown, don’t think I won’t leave you to actually die,” Tony says. “Every man for themselves.”

Summary
Sometimes a family is something that looks like a fifth graders art project. Rough on the edges and held together by paper clips and glue. It’s not exactly worthy of being hung upon the center of the fridge, yet it’s still a point of pride to the kid that made it.

Summary
Rolling his eyes in annoyance, Peter reaches for Tony's hand. There's a snapping sound beneath him and, as if on cue, the railing gives way. He makes eye contact with Rhodey for a fraction of a second, eyes wide with panic, before falling.
Time slows down.

¿Dónde Está La Biblioteca? (Can You Tell Me Where to Find My Patience, Too?) by peterparkersbff
Fandoms: Marvel Cinematic Universe, Spider-Man (Tom Holland Movies)
20 Apr 2024
Tags
Summary
It all starts when a zombie falls on top of Rhodey. Actually, it starts well before that, but there are more pressing matters at hand than putting together a cohesive timeline.
Unless, of course, we’re taking future generations into consideration, because nothing is worse than a story with a muddy plotline. Or a bloody one, depending on how you look at it. Bloody, covered in zombie guts, the works.

Summary
Things are good.
Not like, the apocalypse was actually one big, elaborate, benadryl-induced fever dream and all my loved ones are actually alive and zombies aren’t real, good, but… good. The kind of good where you lose 3 limbs but still have a leg left to stand on so things are still pretty terrible but not entirely impossible. Or something like that.

Summary
Everyone’s happy, things are finally looking up, and Tony… can’t find it in himself to relax.
He’s not going to outright try to crush their dreams or anything—he’s not that much of an asshole—he’s just trying to be realistic. And if being realistic means waiting on the edge of his seat at all hours for the other shoe to drop, then so be it.
