   Summary

   What if Peter had met Jean Grey before becoming her enemy? A fic that explores what might have happened had Peter and Jean met earlier.

   Or, a version of the events of Brand New Day where I put my own spin on what might have happened if Peter and Jean ran into each other and Jean didn’t know he was Spider-Man.
