    Summary

    Sequel to "Office Hours." Hank was the first person Peter told his biggest secret to. The person who showed Peter that coming out of the superhero closet could be pretty cool. But now Hank's going through something that makes the "to tell, or not to tell?" dilemma pretty ridiculous, and Peter finds himself struggling with the same old questions all over again. Only this time, it's not about coming out. It's about staying in.

    Summary

    It's the MCU, reimagined with a nosy, genius college student Peter Parker.

    (All can technically be read as stand-alones, but do still build off of each other quite a lot-- like the real MCU!)

    Summary

    After the world forgot him, Peter kept fighting. He was Spider-Man after all. But as the villains get worse and the heroes dwindle, Peter finally grows tired. Hasn't he done his time? He's never once shirked the responsibility forced upon him. Never once has he put himself first.

    Eventually, the straw breaks the camel's back. Peter finally hangs up the cape.

    Unfortunately the universe seems to disagree. When Peter wakes up in Gotham he knows he should probably find a way home. But what's the point? Normal people don't find their way home across the multiverse, and Peter is normal now. He refuses to be anything else.

    So why do unfamiliar heroes keep ending up on his doorstep? And can he really turn them away?

    --

    In which Peter Parker just wants to retire but instead he becomes a mentor for young dcu heroes and his home becomes a vigilante halfway house

    Summary

    The sharp sensation that jolted his body was too familiar. He widened his eyes and stared at his mentor in absolute fear. He knew exactly what his senses were screaming at him for. Just like that freezing December night, this was not his end but might as well be given what would inevitably follow. “No - Please don’t go. Please -”

    Or: A story of the other side of the coin where the other half survived.
