    Summary

    Sometimes, Peter hates himself. It’s hard not to, when the guilt and grief and weight of the world press down on his shoulders, grinding him into the ground in a truly awful way, suffocating and stifling Peter into a horrible sort of silence. But when Peter’s quiet - when Peter is quiet, because there are people who know Peter now, who know him, who know how quiet he can be (how quiet he is) when something is really wrong - there are those who can make the noise for him, who can break the silent and overhanging doom of "what if" with their beautiful, beautiful presence: their impossible-to-silence selves, who make noise when Peter feels like he can’t. Like he doesn’t deserve to.

    OR

    Healing doesn't occur overnight. It takes time, but luckily, Peter has people who can catch him when he stumbles.

    (the aftermath of a "Peter travels to the DC universe" fic. technically don't have to read the first one if you are just looking for some soft (actually pretty angsty, not gonna lie) hurt/comfort and found family)
