    Summary

    Homecoming AU.

    Ben and May divorced before Peter’s parents died, so when Ben is murdered Peter goes into foster care. It takes just a tiny taste of superpowers for Peter to decide he doesn’t want to put up with his horrible foster father anymore—the streets are infinitely more appealing. All he wants is to be Spider-Man anyway.

    So he leaves.

    Simple.

    Simple, that is, until Iron Man needs Spider-Man’s help. Peter isn’t about to turn down an opportunity to fight alongside Tony Freaking Stark, but he also isn’t going to let his hero know that his recruit is a fifteen-year-old homeless dropout. So they strike a deal. Peter will help Tony. In return, the mask stays on.

    And that’s when things get complicated.

    Summary

    “Wow…” he breathes.

    He moves the spoon, tilts it just a fraction, and watches in aeons-slow motion as the light glides through it, like liquid or some secret, fourth state of matter. No, fifth. Plasma is a thing. Is this plasma?

    “No, babydoll, it’s not plasma,” Jasper replies with a wry smile, and oh, Guy must still be talking.

    Armand gives a curt little sigh.

    “Well, this is a horrifying glimpse into what could have been,” he says in a voice like polished glass, then looks at Molloy. “I was right not to turn you in the ‘70s, feel free to officially admit this at any time.”

    “Jesus, he’s gonna be fine, it’s a temporary high!” Jasper groans, throwing his head back, then lifts it again to look at Armand. “It’s already fading, on night one he was so loaded he couldn’t walk straight. Trust me, I know what I’m doing. Not like I was a virgin when I did him. No offence.”

     
    Or: Jasper brings a freshly turned (and high as a kite) Guy to Night Island to ask for Armand's help with the Talamasca; meanwhile, Daniel continues to live in a telenovela...

    Summary

    Snape jerks away from her, but it is too late. Stars rain down on them from the top of the stone arch. Hermione has seen those stars before, falling on Bill and Fleur.

    “Snape,” she says. “Does that mean what I think it means?”

    She doesn’t need to ask. Of course it does.

    “I believe so, yes.”

    They are married.

    Summary

    That leaves Daniel and Armand, still covered in dust, sitting in the living room.

    “So,” Daniel pours a glass from the copper pot and plops a sugar in because why not? He deserves a little treat after destroying an immortal marriage. “Does he get the penthouse in the divorce? Who signed the papers?”

    Armand’s fingers are rubbing back and forth in that little tell. They press hard enough that his pale nails turn white.
