    Summary

    Peter, now forgotten by the world, prepares to die. That is, until Iron Man shows up looking for Spider-Man.

    OR

    “It’s not even Bucky's fault, really, that your parents are dead. He doesn't even remember doing it."

    A voice, in the back of his mind, whispers. "It's not Strange's fault that you're alone now."

    Peter continued, voice rising. "But you’re angry, at yourself, right? For letting it all happen. And now they’re gone, and you’ll never see them again, and what are you supposed to do, kill yourself over it?"

    What are you supposed to do, when you look at your mentor and they see you as a stranger? What do you do, when all you are to your mentor is a a jumper to save before continuing on to the people he cares about?

    "I lived with it." Mister Stark's reply was gentle, infuriatingly so, and it angered Peter. The older man would never understand, would never stop being better than Peter could ever be. He just... lived with it.

    Peter couldn't live with it.

    Summary

    Red Hood kept his distance from the Bats. They had something akin to a truce, but they always maintained a healthy level of mutual wariness and animosity. None of them knew him, not in any way that mattered, and he was content keeping things that way.

    Unfortunately, secrets had a way of coming to light.

    Summary

    “Look, I’m… I’m not really in the business of exploding little innocent laboratory experiment guinea pigs,” she said, patting Bob on the shoulder. The rodent in her hand squeaked indignantly. “So why don’t you leave here with me, and maybe we find you some clothes, and, like, a clif bar or something, because you still look sort of woozy. And then you can think about killing yourself in a way where I’m not the one pressing a button. Okay?”

    She smiled at him in an attempt at comfort, straightening her posture to give herself some authority, or at least an air of confidence. He looked at her, and then the bomb, and then the guinea pig, and then behind him to the shadows on the wall. And then back to her.

    “Okay,” he echoed, and she was pretty sure he had a bit less doom-and-gloom nothing-matters dejection in his expression now, so maybe she said something kind of right. Maybe.

    “Great. How do you feel about wearing dead people shoes? The options here are slim.”

    ---

    Or, Yelena gets sent to destroy O.X.E. Group evidence in a lab in Malaysia and finds... Bob. Bob, who was for sure a human experiment. Bob, who was definitely supposed to be dead. Bob, who absolutely knows more than he's letting on.

    Summary

    A snowstorm raging outside, the detective stood over the dead man's brutally murdered body inside a halted train.

    "Seven stab wounds, a slashed throat... the pocketwatch stopped at 1:15 AM, door connecting with neighboring compartment locked. A room full of strangers who happened to share the same car as the dead man. Any one of us... could be the culprit."

    aka. a comic featuring Batfamily in an Agatha Christie mystery.

    Summary

    Five times Peter doesn't think Tony would want to know about his trauma.
    Each chapter will be a different problem Peter tries to face on his own: panic attacks/flashbacks, bullying, physical injury, etc. There will be underlying themes of sexual assault aftermath throughout, so please be careful reading. This will be a sensitive and realistic portrayal of the effects of SA trauma with no explicit scenes. I will handle this with care! But please read with care, too.

    One time Peter realizes he 100% trusts Tony. I adore this chapter so much.

    Plus at least another chapter of pure healing and love, so I'm going to set this as a 7 chapter fic!
