Summary
Law school is hard. Everyone knows that. Matt’s smart, he was at the top of his class in undergrad, and he knows how to study. How to do well on tests. How to compensate for the gaps professors accidentally leave disabled students to jump over.
Matt's also stubborn, overly ambitious, and occasionally an anxious wreck. That last one doesn't come out very often, but when it does, well. It does.

Summary
Peter flaps a hand in the air, grasping for words. All he’s left with is the thought that’s been running through his head all night: “There was this dilapidated building out near Hell’s Kitchen, rotted all the way through, and I kept staring at it and thinking, This thing could go down at the smallest breeze.” Peter gestures at the roof over their head. “Even this apartment could go down easily enough.”
May rubs his hand. “Buildings don’t just collapse, Peter. Did something happen to make you worried about that?”
Peter shakes his head. He doesn’t ever give her details. He doesn’t tell her about the intimate, gnawing kind of horror that came with being trapped beneath a collapsed building and knowing no one was coming to save you; the way it felt like his bones were being ground into the damp cement; how he’d felt small and very soft, and how his thoughts keep going over the components of a building—rusted metals, long nails strong enough to jut through cement—and how that might’ve pierced him if he’d moved wrong, like a fork pulled through slow cooked meats.
(Peter learns to cope and communicate with the people around him, post-Homecoming.)

Summary
“I’m not—” Peter chokes on his swollen tongue. His teeth feel tacky and loose in his mouth. He swallows, and tries again, “I’m not a kid.”
Peter rises onto his elbows. His arms shake with the effort, and something shifts around in his side. Sandman watches him squirm and shake and gag, bringing up more blood than bile. Peter’s never been this badly hurt before. Not even after Toomes.
“You’re a brave kid,” Sandman says, ignoring Peter’s sputtering disagreement. “That’s not a compliment, by the way. You’re going to get yourself killed."
Anon asked for: 'how about something where Peter gets in over his head during a fight or on patrol and ends up injured with no access to help?'

Summary
“You look terrible,” Shane says bluntly when he greets Ilya at the stairwell. “Are you hurting?”
Ilya shrugs. He is hurting, actually. The adrenaline from the win wore off somewhere between his texts with Shane and the medic’s second consult. His face feels swollen and it hurts to speak when he says, “I am not wilting daisy, Hollander. I can handle getting hit at hockey game.”
“Well, I’m glad you’re okay.”
A strange pang hits Ilya’s chest then, unassuming and small. Ilya chooses to think nothing of it.
////
Or Ilya Rozanov on pain, love, and family throughout the years.
