    Summary

    “Raphael,” she said gently. “I know it’s difficult for you to use the past tense-”

     

    “It’s not difficult, it’s just wrong,” Raph growled. He couldn’t look at her. This was the thing. The thing that made everyone look at him with pity. Like he was defective or broken. Like he was some stupid idiot who couldn’t get with the program.

     

    But it was everyone else who was wrong. Raph was the only one who was living in reality.

     

    “Leo. Isn’t. Dead.”
    _________________

    It's been two years since Leo's disappearance. The city has erected a monument in Bryant Park to honor and mourn New York's bravest young hero.

    While Leo's statue sits in the park, Raph sits in therapy. Everyone believes Raph is too traumatized, too wounded to process the loss of his brother.

    But there's something Raph can't explain, something only he can feel, something everybody wants him to ignore. It whispers softly somewhere in the deepest corners of his mind: he's still here.

    Raph listens.

    Summary

    "Maybe," Peter thought, "I can make a life here."
    Hence the tears and the guilt and the grief, because was Peter allowed to move on? Was he allowed to… to leave it all behind? Leave all the bad things in the past?
    Peter was "The Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man!" after all, and wasn’t he letting Queens - his people - down if he didn’t fight tooth and nail to get back to them?
    or

    Peter's tired. He's so tired, and he doesn't know what to do, but maybe things will get better.
    (They do.)

    Summary

    As Ace begins to perceive things and not just light, several things are odd to him.

    1) He’s not at Marine Ford

    2) He’s not in impel down

    3) He’s definitely not on a ship

    In fact, the only thing stranger than where he isn’t, is where he is. Were it not entirely impossible, where it not utterly absurd and inconceivable, well, Ace would have sworn he was on the shore of Foosha.
    .
    .
    .
    Ace wakes up after dying ten years in the past and is confronted with the fact that he was, in fact, at some point, a child.
