    Summary

    “What is your endgame here, young man?”
    Peter shrugs. “Slumber party.”
    “Do your parents know you’re here?”
    Peter grins and slouches in his seat. “Definitely.”
    “What makes you think Mr. Stark wants to see you?”
    The words make him feel suddenly hollow, when he had been doing such a good job at pretending none of this really matters. He can feel his grin waver but strains to keep it in place. “He wants to see me. He is— He wants to see me. He knows me.”
    -
    Or: Fourteen-year-old Peter took the gamble and traveled from his hometown Malibu to New York city for a ‘slumber party’ that, if it were up to him, will extend to approximately twenty thousand nights. He hasn’t seen Tony in five years, and going back home is not an option. But everything will be all right. Why wouldn’t it be?

    Summary

    A story about coffee, carjackers, and co-dad management.
    Spider-Man is unpredictable and chaotic, never says no to free food and seems to spend most his time directing traffic. This rookie is in desperate need of a chaperone. And Tony doesn’t want to do it, but he’ll bear the burden as gracefully as he always does.
    Local teen Peter Parker never wears warm enough clothes, and can’t always sleep at home for reasons he refuses to go into. So if the Avengers really expect Sam to join their hippie-commune-cult, someone is going to have to look after this kid for him.

    Summary

    The first time he hit a roadblock with the Avengers was not when Doc Ock attacked a bank, or a supervillain stalked Aunt May, or his full name came out. It was when Clint Barton offered him a drink.

    ...or, a Homecoming AU where young Peter Parker handles the Vulture without Iron Man, lies to the Avengers about his age, and gets away with it. For a time.

    Summary

    The window was pushed open, and Iron Man’s head popped into his bedroom. “Here’s where I’m confused—why lock the front door but leave the fire-escape-accessible windows unlocked?” He clambered through said window. “Seems like a safety hazard.”

    Peter eyed the metal suit as it straightened to a standing position. “Did you break into my window to kill me?”

    The face plate lifted, and Tony’s eyes quickly looked over the teen. “Christ, kid. It looks like you’re halfway there.”

    ...

    A wild night on patrol leaves Peter with a broken back, and boy, does he want to be able to move without dying. (So he calls Anthony Stark, obviously.)

    Summary

    Peter never made any plans to run away, until the day he leaves. It isn’t an idea that slowly creeps up on him. He just stands over the sink one day in early spring, watching his father’s bright red ashtray bob up through the soap bubbles, and feels an overwhelming urge to get the hell out of this place.
    Two years later. Tony Stark has been keeping his identity as Iron Man a secret, successfully hiding behind his spoiled, rich asshole persona. It’s isolating, but he doesn’t even like people anyway, so it’s fine, he’s fine, he’s great. And then he gets saddled with a new intern, who isn’t just hiding secrets: he’s barely holding it together.

    Summary

    “So what have you been up to this weekend?”
    “Family picnic,” Peter says.
    “Oh, great, great fun,” Tony says and swipes away from the article about Spider-Man wrestling a giant spider on the roof of the Chrysler building.
    It’s quite obvious that Tony knows he is Spider-Man, but decided not to acknowledge it; decided to keep the secret going. For what reason, Peter doesn’t know. Maybe Tony thinks he can use the information in his favor, or maybe he just doesn’t want Peter to freak out. Either way, it serves Peter just fine, because Tony tries so hard to keep up his oblivious act that he never prods too hard or looks too deep.
    Which means all of Peter’s far bigger secrets are still safe.

    Summary

    It starts like the punchline of a really bad joke.

    A Mechanical Engineering major and a Chem student walk into a McDonald’s.

    Pretty decent set-up, right? Has all the makings of the kind of gut-splitter your druncle climbs onto the band’s stage and tells halfway through your sister’s wedding reception, effectively offending your great-grandparents so bad that they up and leave.

    In this case—and what an unfortunate case it is—the humor starts and ends in the set-up.

    Summary

    When the Avengers stumble upon Peter Parker, he is not a fifteen year old, bubbly, nerdy high school student. He is eighteen, homeless, and a drug addict.

    Peter refuses to let them discover the squalor he lives in when the mask is off, refuses to ruin their perfect little makeshift family with all his dirt, refuses to get too close.

    Unfortunately, he doesn't really have a choice.

    Summary

    “Your prints were a match for a missing persons case from ten years ago. A little boy who was kidnapped.”

    The officer pulls out a picture that she turns toward Peter. It’s a little boy around four years old, with curly brown hair. “That’s you,” she says.

    Peter shakes his head.

    “Do you remember how you got to that park? Who left you there?”

    “Lady, I don’t remember jack shit,” Peter says. “I was like four. No one remembers shit from when they were four.”

    ---

    Or: the biodad au where Peter gets arrested for selling drugs, and that actually improves his life.

    Summary

    Tony rubs the lines of his forehead. “I was thinking--we’re with each other practically 24/7 and I cannot for the life of me sneak away from you without your pesky super-ears or eight eyes knowing about it. So. Just lay it on me--what do you want for Christmas? Nuh-uh”--he wags a finger in Peter’s direction--“I don’t care how cheap or expensive it is. I don’t. Just tell me what you want, and I’ll make it happen.”

    Peter stares at him, dead into his eyes behind the stupid layer of those stupid rose-colored sunglasses, and he opens his mouth to speak and squeezes the ball of sand in his hand, and tries to say May. I want May. I want her back, and nothing comes out but a small, pained sound like a wounded animal.

    “Pete?”

    Stop it. Stop it. Stop, it hurts.

    “I’m fine,” Peter gasps out.
    --
    Or: Peter thought he's getting better at dealing with May being gone, but then Christmas rolls around and reminds him that she's really not coming back. Tony learns how to be there for him.

    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

    “Good to see you putting in an appearance, Peter,” his teacher says. The class laughs. Peter shrinks in his seat. “Do you have a good reason for missing yesterday’s test?”

    “Uh.” I was kidnapped by a sadistic megalomanic who may or may not have a very creepy, very illegal obsession for me wouldn’t go down very well. Neither would I was sequestered away by local billionaire Tony Stark and then fussed over by a lawyer-slash-vigilante and his not-so-assholeish secretary. “I… caught a cold.”

    Summary

    Tony’s face hardens as he says, “What kid.”
    “I don’t know, some twelve year old—”
    Below him, the kid coughs out, “Fifteen.”
    “—Fifteen year old—”
    Tony scrubs a hand across his face. “Don’t tell me he’s wearing a dorky shirt with a chemistry pun on it.”
    Rhodey frowns. That was oddly specific. Glancing down, he looks at what little he can see of the kid’s shirt—which isn't much since there’s so much blood now, but what could be once called a cartoon joke is printed on it. “Um, yeah?”
    “Son of a bitch.”

     

    Otherwise known as how Rhodey finds out about how old Peter is, and how badly he needs to beat Tony with a stick.

    Summary

    Peter tugs a hand through his unruly hair, eyebrows drawn together, and finally meets Tony’s gaze. “Mister Stark, I think we’re both on the wrong page. Like, at least six pages away from each other. I don’t think you’ve even read my… page.”

    Humouring the clumsy metaphor, Tony levels with the cryptic kid. “You wanna read it for me?”

    “Yeah. I’m not – I’m actually…” he pauses to swipe his lips with his tongue. “I probably seem nervous here because I wanna stay here. I just… I guess I’m scared of messing up? I really don’t – don’t want you to…”

    Leave me.

    The word blindsided pales in comparison to what Tony’s feeling. That’s not – I can’t believe I… Oh my God.

    It’s a struggle to hang on to his veneer of snarky calm. “Right. Well, I’m gonna take the liberty of telling you that you’re way off base.”
    --
    Or, Peter suffers yet another loss of a loved one and he and Tony must navigate their way around their fears and their tentative love for each other in the aftermath.
