Summary
Peter’s gotten used to Gotham by now. The thousand little sounds that build up to the cacophony of a city in controlled chaos. But it isn’t home, and it never will be, and the more time passes, the more that thought makes him twitch. He’s frustrated by it, annoyed that he feels like he’s forcing his way through a world that doesn’t belong to him. Worse, the Soul Stone is starting to become more and more of an issue. As if it senses something coming.
Tony's last words had been 'the threat always comes back.' Thanos won't be thwarted forever, only delayed. Eventually, he's going to hunt down the stray Soul Stone that Peter holds.
The Bats have a few opinions on that. The Avengers that have fallen into this other world have a few of their own. And there's the problem of Dr. Strange's letter...

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
Two years after the events of No Way Home, Peter responds to an emergency at Fisk Tower, where things go sideways. And while Peter was really hoping he could go to another dimension to visit Peter 2 and Peter 3, or just any other Peter at that point, this sort of dimensional travel isn't exactly what he was hoping for. With just Karen at his side, Peter crash lands (literally) into Gotham and has to learn to survive there as both Peter and Spider-Man with the help of a few Bats and Birds and a very nice blonde that reminds him a little too much of Ned.

Summary
After the world forgot him, Peter kept fighting. He was Spider-Man after all. But as the villains get worse and the heroes dwindle, Peter finally grows tired. Hasn't he done his time? He's never once shirked the responsibility forced upon him. Never once has he put himself first.
Eventually, the straw breaks the camel's back. Peter finally hangs up the cape.
Unfortunately the universe seems to disagree. When Peter wakes up in Gotham he knows he should probably find a way home. But what's the point? Normal people don't find their way home across the multiverse, and Peter is normal now. He refuses to be anything else.
So why do unfamiliar heroes keep ending up on his doorstep? And can he really turn them away?
