    Summary

    Frank Castle tries his best to avoid other vigilantes, but apparently just staying out of Manhattan isn't good enough anymore. When he has a run-in with a child calling himself "Spider-Man" right in the middle of a gang's headquarters, he affirms to himself that it's none of his goddamn business.

    Then the kid's aunt doesn't make it out.

    Fucking brilliant.

    Summary

    *Previously titled "A Beautiful Lie"
    . . .
    . . .

    Head Down. Mouth shut. Quiet. Survive.

    Peter knows the drill. Richard Parker has been carving it into him for years now. Follow. Repeat. Do as you're told. But things get complicated after Germany, after Tony Stark. And suddenly the line starts getting blurry.

    Meanwhile, with the Avengers scattered and the Accords in pieces, Tony's a mess who's ready to crash and burn. Enter Spider-Kid, complete with bruises, excuses and a deep, dark secret that stretches far further than Tony first thought.

    Disjointed, dysfunctional, disastrous.

    Nothing can seem to describe the sheer catastrophe in waiting that lurks closer every second they spend together. Tony's depressed. Peter's afraid. They're both wrecks apart. Imagine the chaos that would come by putting them together.

    Still, who better to help a hero than another hero?

    Summary

    “What’s going to happen?” Peter whispers softly to his mother once they are alone again.

    Mary cups the boy’s face in her hands. For ten years she was able to keep her son away from the life of criminals and psychopaths. After she fled, Tony put in a rule that all hospitals must keep children in custody until a DNA test is completed. There was no way Mary could sneak Peter out.

    “He is going to come. I’m sure he will have a few Avengers with him. They will probably separate us.”

    Peter grabs her hands, “I won’t let them do that.”

    “Peter” Mary leans forward, placing her forehead on his. “Do not fight him. We are both going to do what he instructs. That is the only way to get through this. I…I’m sure he won’t allow us to see each other for a long time. Definitely not until he thinks we are compliant. If we just do what he wants, the sooner we will see each other again. Do you understand?”
    The thirteen-year-old nods his head, again allowing tears to flow. “I love you mom.”

    “I love you too.”

    The sound of the door opening causes the duo to freeze. Mary’s blood feels like ice when she hears an all too familiar voice taunt “Daddy’s home.”

    Summary

    Some forgave him (Vision) or said it wasn’t his fault (Bucky) because they had all played a role in the outcome. But that didn’t matter to Steve. No matter how many people made excuses for him or forgave him, even when the government forgave him, it would never be enough.

    Because he would never forgive himself.

    A man was dead. His friend was dead.

    And it was all his fault

    Or: After their fight at the end of Captain America: Civil War, Tony is in worse shape than Steve initially thought.
