    Summary

    When they sleep, Henry keeps his own body between Alex and the door. He keeps Alex crowded against the wall to keep him covered. They grow closer as the time passes. Henry tells Alex about his family, how his dad was in movies until he got sick. How his sister is his best friend, but his brother is annoying. He’s not even sure if his dad is still alive- he didn’t have much time to begin with. Alex tells Henry about his parents constantly fighting. He’s sure they’re headed for divorce, but Alex was the only reason they put up with each other. He talks about June, everything she’s done for him, and their friend Nora who just moved in down the street. Alex learns that Henry is from London, but was only in Texas because there was a specialist here who could help his dad.

     

    “I’m sure we won’t be here much longer. My mom has a lot of connections- she works at the capitol.”

     

    Henry just smiles a bit sadly. “I’m sure they’ll find us,” he whispers.

    Summary

    Aunt May is dead. One drunk driver and Peter Parker is officially alone in life.

    He's too numb to be anything other than resigned when he's placed in a Catholic Home for Boys. And he's not Catholic, but he's pretty sure the Fathers aren't supposed to be as cruel as the ones that run this home.

    It's in this hell that Peter befriends the other boys in the care, including one Harley Keener, a sarcastic southener who shares an affinity for science. And so it's not even Peter's fault that he starts to teach the other boys how to code. They asked him to. And so what if the first thing they do is hack into Tony Stark's website. They aren't going to change anything.

    Tony Stark is not a father. He never will be a father, and the sooner Pepper admits that the better they all will be.

    However on a search for a new design to highlight at one of his charity galas, he stumbles across this random kid's old science project. Some dorky teen named Peter Parker. So naturally he just wants to talk to the kid. That's it. Nothing more.

    Summary

    ["June stopped by at lunch; she showed me a delightful channel called Hallmark, which repeats the same story every hour after they swap one round of white, straight, small-town conventionally beautiful actors for another. It was entertaining.”

    “June and I used to play a drinking game with those. Take a shot every time someone goes ice skating, sledding, or leaves the big city for their tiny hometown.”

    “Good lord, you must’ve been sloshed in the first ten minutes.”]

    ***

    On December 4, 2021, an attempt is made on President Ellen Claremont's life.

    Alex gets shot instead.

    Summary

    When Tony made an off-hand comment about adopting a child, he never expected Steve would jump on the idea so quickly. He definitely didn't expect to adopt two kids. And even if they did expect to love them dearly, they weren't ready for the fierce protectiveness that raged within them for their boys. They couldn't save them from the past, but they could protect them from the future and whatever dared to threaten their safety.

    Through fostering Harley and Peter, Steve and Tony learn a lot from them, who have experienced more than any child ever should. But they have something to teach the boys themselves: family doesn't end in blood.
