Summary
There are people who believe that romantic connections are the province of fate and destiny, the result of an alignment of constellations and conditions that bring two people together. Others tend to discuss falling in love as the product of rational decisions that acknowledge attraction and compatibility. Some people, however, seem to think these two seemingly-opposite perspectives are really just two sides of the same coin. Sometimes, after all, destiny just requires that two people make a single choice.
A modern/AU Pride & Prejudice.

Summary
"A short, plump man in a three-piece suit stood over a costumed child wrapped in a small boat chain. The man had a smoking revolver in his hand leveled at a spot right next to the kid’s ear. His ridiculous top hat sat low over his eyes, but his hooked nose was just long enough to jut past the brim. The lighting in the warehouse wasn’t great, but Percy recognized him immediately. It was the Gotham supervillain Penguin, and Percy was on his godsdamned payroll."

Summary
His voice is deep and nasally, and distinctly not-Peter. MJ should know, she’s basically one of the foremost experts in all things Peter Parker. Which she thinks also ultimately qualifies her to designate that this is not Peter Parker, even with the little evidence she has.
And yet when she makes a questioning noise, this stranger in a Spider-Man suit that she’s never seen before points vaguely at her and says again, “You- you said my name, you said Peter… how do you know who I am?”
“Uh, I don’t know who you are,” she says. “Who are you?”
