    Summary

    "Hello, 911; what's your emergency?"

    He took a shuttering breath, held it, then slumped against the brick wall behind him. The broken and chipped bricks left powder he would later need to clean, and to make it worse, his building's washer and dryer were busted, so that meant going to the mats too. Today wasn't his night.

    "Hello, can you hear me?"

    Oh, yeah, Danny was taking a call; he better worry more about the dead body lying barely ten feet from him, not the fact that he needed to do Laundry, which he did need.

    Summary

    Finding himself stuck in a universe entirely unlike his own seemed like the perfect opportunity to move on for Peter.

    Having spent the last 5 years barely living and now jaded with the vigilante world, hanging up the spidersuit indefinitely to focus on being a normal 20 something y/o instead of unpacking his trauma (and the effects the aftermath of NWH had on him) is a corner he’s more than willing to cut.

    But undoing years of emotional isolation isn’t exactly easy and it seems the harder he pushes to tuck his past away the quicker it all seems to catch up to him.

    Join Peter as he struggles with the everyday problems of an ex-superhero turned interdimensional transfer student with emotionally avoidant tendencies. And did I mention broke? Because it's college. Who isn’t!

    Featuring: bad decisions, an overly invested TA, a grumpy neighbour and his equally grumpy (albeit scarier) younger brother (sorry ‘parasitical, situation-based responsibility’ ...whatever that means), a boss w/questionable morals We Are Ignoring bc Paid Internship!!, crime fighting & poorly disguised brunch Interventions he really should stop falling for. Because he’s fine. Fine!

    Summary

    There was another student here.

    Tom recognized him vaguely—while transfer students were not necessarily uncommon due to the war, they were rare enough to at least make an impression. This particular transfer student was in his year, sorted into Ravenclaw after an impressively long hat stall. He looked like he might be descended from the Potter line, but he did not share the surname so his lineage was of no particular interest to Tom. Nothing about him was of particular interest to Tom, in fact, and yet here he stood, holding the book that Tom had come here to find.

    It would be a good time to turn away. The Restricted Section was restricted for a reason—only books documenting extremely dangerous or extremely advanced magic were stored here.

    Tom’s feet, however, suddenly felt as if they were made of lead. It wasn’t magic keeping him tied down, but something far more mysterious like curiosity or even fate. In any case, the delay was all it took for the Ravenclaw to lift his chin and meet Tom’s eyes.

    This Ravenclaw, Tom realized, had eyes as blindingly green as the Killing Curse.
