    Summary

    After six years of being in the foster care system, fourteen year old Peter Parker somehow managed to win an opportunity to meet his hero. The one and only Tony Stark. 


    “Not much of a talker is he,” Tony casually stated, making Peter stomach churn with unease. He had no idea where the man was going with his assessment and wasn’t really sure how to properly defend himself. Thankfully, he didn’t have to.

    “Peter has what they call selective mutism,” the social worker replied. “So, no. I suppose he’s not much of a talker.”

    Tony leaned back in his chair and arched his eyebrow. “He doesn’t talk at all?”

    “I’ve been his social worker for six years and I’ve never heard more than a peep out of him,” the social worker said, this time, turning towards Peter to offer him a reassuring smile.

    Summary

    "I am going to find Tony," the man hisses in Peter's ear, his gaze cold and cruel. "And when I do, I will kill him, slowly. What do you say to that-" The man stops short because Peter's shoulders are shaking, and before he can curl his lip in victory, he hears a snicker. When he lets go of Peter's hair, the teen's head slumps to his chest, but it's not out of exhaustion or defeat...it's to hide a smile.

    The boy lets out a laugh, shaking his head before glancing to the sides admitting apologetically, "I'm sorry, I'm so sorry, it's just- it is so fun to mess with you!" He looks around before snorting, "Tony Stark? That's your play? You're not screwing with me, right? You actually thought that would work? Sorry guys." Peter straightens in his chair with a sneer and a cocky wink, "Tony doesn't give a flying crap about me."

     

    In other words.... Peter is kidnapped and his captors think they can hold Tony against him. But they don't know what's happened in the past couple months.

    Summary

    Spider-Man can take care of himself, he sure as hell doesn't need some holier-than-thou superheroes trying to 'help'.

    He's saving lives; so what if Peter Parker is falling apart in the process?

     

    or

     

    The one where Peter is homeless, struggling, and maybe needs a little more help than he lets on. Luckily for us, there's a found family of overachieving superheroes oh so eager to help out and bring some joy into his life.

    Well. Eventually, at least.

    Summary

    “You’ll come to learn that there’s only one thing worse than having nothing.”

    Trying to hold onto his fight, Peter shoots back, “Yeah? And what’s that?”

    “To have nothing, after being able to believe you could have everything.”

    The streets are dirty, crowded, and the jagged bumps in the asphalt are hardly comfortable to sleep on. They’re home, though.

    Peter is just about finished with New York City. It’s gotten impossibly harder to find even a scrap of food, and what little belongings he does have are unlikely to keep him alive through the winter. And the memories. God, the painful memories here.

    So he saves up. Makes a plan to get out of there.

    Then, somehow, he accidentally saves Tony fucking Stark from a gang of eight mercenaries, and the majestic plan disintegrates into ash.

    The worst part about it, he knows, isn’t even that he met Tony. It’s that Tony met him.
