Summary
In close relation to a previous work, "Parenting the Multi-Verse," this story continues the ripple effects of a mission that was never meant to go wrong. After Endgame, Peter Parker was entrusted with helping return the Infinity Stones—one final act to set the universe right. But something fractured along the way. Instead of making it home, Peter was thrown out of his own timeline… and back into it.
Brought back as a six-year-old, with only fragments of memory and instincts that don’t quite match his age, Peter is taken in by Tony Stark and Pepper Potts—who slowly come to realize that this isn’t just any child. This is their Peter… just younger. Smaller. Far more fragile. Now raising a version of the boy who once fought beside them, Tony and Pepper navigate a new reality, one where Peter needs bedtime routines instead of battle plans, comfort instead of strategy, and constant care when his body fails him. When a severe illness takes hold—high fever, worsening congestion, and a hidden complication that leaves Peter in pain and unable to communicate what’s wrong—Tony and Pepper are forced to rely on Bruce Banner to step in.

Summary
In the aftermath of a world-shaking disaster, Spider-Man becomes the easiest target for blame. Peter Parker wakes up in the ruins with gaps in his memory, a body that aches, and a heaviness in his chest he can’t explain. Everyone else seems to know what happened—what he lost—except him. Tony Stark stays close, trying to keep Peter grounded while carrying truths that will change everything. As pieces of the past begin to surface, grief settles in where memory fails, and guilt finds Peter even before the facts do. Sometimes love means staying. Sometimes it means letting go. And sometimes, healing isn’t about remembering at all—but learning how to live with what’s left.

With a second chance he never asked for, Tony finds himself in unfamiliar territory: learning how to be someone’s safe place and faced with a responsibility he never saw coming.

The Cost of a Hero by MidnightReader2001

Summary
Peter Parker thought the hardest part of being a hero was balancing homework with web-slinging. Then a mission goes sideways—fast—and suddenly, he's waking up in a hospital bed with a shattered leg, a silent comm, his life on the line, and a mountain of guilt he can’t crawl out from under. While the Avengers rebuild the city, Peter has to rebuild himself—physically, mentally, emotionally. And it turns out, getting back on your feet is a lot harder when you're terrified of falling again. Between late-night check-ins, stubborn rehab sessions, a few too many burgers from Tony Stark, and more encouragement than Peter knows what to do with, he starts to realize maybe he’s not alone after all.
Maybe being a hero doesn’t always mean making the jump.
Sometimes it just means getting up again. -

Summary
Peter Parker isn’t sleeping. Not well, anyway. The nightmares come in waves—loud, panicked, visceral—and Tony’s the one who hears the scream at 2:41 in the morning. As Peter spirals from the trauma of the Snap, Tony scrambles to help, enlisting Bruce for support. But therapy isn’t clean. It’s messy, volatile, and when Peter’s pushed too far, Tony has no choice but to step in. He already lost this kid once—he refuses to lose him again.

Summary
Time travel wasn’t supposed to allow detours. In the midst of returning the Infinity Stones, a glitch in the Quantum Realm sends Tony to a modest apartment in Queens. There, he meets a wide-eyed seven-year-old Peter Parker wielding a Nerf blaster and a toy lightsaber. Rather than panic, Tony rolls with it—offering the kid a once-in-a-lifetime “field trip” to Stark Industries. What starts as a short encounter becomes something far more personal. Tony gives young Peter a glimpse of a future he's already destined for. And in doing so, Tony gives himself something, too—hope.

Summary
Peter shows up on Tony Stark’s dock just before dawn—bruised, bleeding, and on the verge of collapse. Grief over Aunt May’s death has been slowly crushing him, and now the pressure has finally cracked. He can’t keep up with school. He can’t keep pretending he’s okay. What begins as a patch-up job in Tony’s kitchen turns into something far more human—raw confessions, unraveling grief, and a kid who just needed somewhere safe to fall. Tony steps in, not as Iron Man, but as someone who sees the weight Peter’s carrying—and decides it’s time he didn’t carry it alone.
