    SPIDER-MAN BRAND NEW DAY SPOILERS: DO NOT READ BEFORE WATCHING!!!

    “I thought I was going to spend the rest of my life knowing I’d never get the chance to tell you how much you meant to me.”

    Four years after Doctor Strange’s spell erased Peter Parker from the world, twenty-two-year-old Peter has gotten used to being alone. After MJ and Ned's housewarming party, Peter leaves heartbroken, only to fall through a portal, be transported through time, and land straight in the living room of the man he watched die.

    For Tony Stark, it has been four years since Peter disappeared in the Snap. Now Peter has a chance to prevent the future that destroyed everything he loved, bring back everyone lost to Thanos, and save Tony before it’s too late.

    Summary

    In the wake of Peter Parker erasing himself from the memories of his friends and family, not to mention the entire universe, he's doing as well as can be expected. Three years later, he's attending ESU, trying to work three jobs alongside getting two degrees, and still going out as Spider-Man. He's fine, really. Everything is just fine. That is until a run-in with the law and a DNA test shatter the carefully constructed facade that Peter had made his life.

    -

    “Your blood matches a sample the FBI has on file from a kidnapping case.” Agent Carisi opens the thicker file. “A four-year-old boy taken while on vacation with his father about twenty years ago.”
    Peter’s breathing speeds up.
    “Authorities took fingerprint and DNA samples from the boy’s room, and at the father’s behest, we continue to test them against any that are placed within any system we have access to.”
    A piece of paper with lab results lays atop the file. It gets picked up and placed on the table.
    “This afternoon, we finally got a match.”

    Summary

    His hair is messy, sticking up in about six directions like he's never once used a brush on it. His clothes are dark and dirty and kind of hang off him strange, like they don't quite fit right, or maybe they used to fit and don't anymore. There's dirt smudged along one cheekbone. His eyes are brown and very wide and fixed on her like she's the strangest thing he's seen all week, which, Morgan will consider later, is probably rude, because he's clearly the strangest thing she's seen all week, and possibly ever.

    "Whoa," Morgan says.

    Summary

    Anthology containing:

    Instant Kill Mode

    "Is there a reason you're calling this late at night?" Tony asks, worried in spite of himself. "Tell me what's going on, kid."

    “Everything is one-hundred-percent fine,” Peter says. “Seriously, I've never been better. But I should let you know I have about thirty bricks of cocaine in my bedroom. Also, Karen won't let me turn off Instant Kill Mode. Also, Walmart discontinued my special razzle-berry pink-squeezy lemonade. Which isn't related to tonight's patrol, I'm just bummed about it.”

    Or: The five times Instant Kill Mode is activated +1

    Kids These Days

    The rogue Avengers know about the kid Tony is mentoring. They know his name is Peter and he lives with his aunt in Queens. They know he’s young. They know he’s got heart. They know he’s Spiderman.

    What they don’t know is that Peter’s messy, offbeat lifestyle has a way of sucking you in and entangling you in craziness. There’s not a single person he can’t charm, from super-soldiers to ex-brainwashed assassins to Russian spies to Asgardian gods. The kid has the personality of a Michal Bublé song—chaotic and so freaking bubbly—and the ability to systematically dismantle the walls you’ve spent your whole life building.

    The rogue Avengers don’t know any of that. Not yet. But they’re about to find out.

    Summary

    (I am Peter Benjamin Parker, and I exist.)

    - - -

    Three months after his existence was erased, Peter Parker was not doing so well. His solace came from knowing that at the very least he had managed to save his city in the end.

    Apparently, though, Peter realized as Doctor Strange explained to him that he had to give up even more, losing everything-and-then-some just wasn't enough.

    OR

    The multiverse continues to collapse in on itself. Doctor Strange discovers the source of the problem as Peter Parker. The only viable solution is to remove Peter from his original universe so that no more entities will be drawn to his presence there.

    Peter is sent to a world that lost its Peter Parker, and finds himself lost in a sea of people he'd grieved who had all grieved him in kind.

    “Uh-huh. Sure. Okay.” Peter doesn’t know if it’s better to believe the stalker or not. “And what’s your deal, Tim? Why are you squatting on my fire escape like a raccoon?”

    “I don’t know.”

    Peter waits. “...You don’t know.”

    “Not really. I just — ended up here.” Tim’s brow furrows. “You’re the only one who can see me, aren’t you?”

    Or: Peter Parker is being haunted by an amnesiac ghost named Tim — who may or may not have once been a hero.

    Summary

    “Tell me about Thanos, then. Or what the hell Contingency A-01 is.”

    “I don’t know,” Tim says again, with more fervor. “I don’t remember, alright? Last thing I remember, I was on patrol, and now you’re telling me I ended up in a different universe with half a note from my dad telling me about a contingency I swear to you I never heard of.”

    Telling the truth betrays every instinct he has, but Tim is nerved out beyond all reasonable measures, and he just wants to find a way home.
    Besides, he thinks, half-bitterly, it might be nice to have someone else in this lonely new universe, even if it's just for a little while.

    “I’ll make you a deal, okay?” He tries to bargain with the wizard. “I’ll help you with this Thanos guy, and you help me get back to my own universe.”

    Or: Tim Drake ends up in the MCU with no memory of how he got there, and Stephen Strange and Tony Stark accidentally both adopt him.

    Summary

    “Do you know what universe you’re from?”

    Red Robin blinks. “Um. Not exactly.”

    Strange considers him. The suit is armored but light; his stance screams combat training; his eyes — what Stephen can see of them, anyway — are sharp and tired all at once.

    And he’s a child. Not literally — a teenager, maybe — but he is still too young to be saying things like “grenade launcher” with that much nonchalance.

    “This,” Strange says finally, “is not my problem.”

    Summary

    After Strange’s spell, Peter was lonely and got reckless. He stopped caring about himself so much with no one left to care. This led to riskier and riskier moves until he made one he couldn’t walk away from.
    Peter wakes, drowning. Suddenly, he’s 14 years old again in a strange city that is weirdly familiar. Even though no one knows him still, a few seem oddly interested. All he wants is to stop feeling so damn angry all the time.

    Summary

    He clicks on Gotham Wikipedia with bated breath. And it doesn’t take long for Peter to figure out just how bad the situation is. Gotham isn’t just a city, it’s apparently a hellhole. What kind of villain playground is this world running? How could anyone let it get this bad? Where is the government? Where are the heroes?

    Peter’s heart swells at the thought. He needs heroes! They’ll be able to help him! The first thing that pops up is a website- JusticeLeague.Org.
    -
    Peter, like any 14 year old superhero, really wants to catch a break. He's just a friendly neighborhood Spider-Man, nothing special. Well, only if you don't look at his biology ever since the radioactive spider bite. And his extensive track record of running away and deaths in his life. And that his foster-dad is Tony Stark. And that his mentors are the Avengers. And the fact that he was randomly kidnapped one morning on his way to school and now he's in an alternate universe with a bunch of different superheroes that keep stalking him.

    He thinks they mean well, but they're really weird. Besides that Red Hood guy. He's pretty cool.

    Summary

    After Peter gets dusted and loses everything in the War of the Infinity Stones, he believes that this is the final sign that the universe gave him to prove he can't be a hero.

    So when he wakes up in a new world, with just his Iron Spider Suit and no clothes on his back he decides it is time to leave the hero life in the past and move on. Throwing his Spider Suit in the trash he goes on his way.

    However when a certain Batfamily come across the suit along with a slightly peeved Karen, Peter's choice of a 'normal' life goes sideways.

    (Exactly the same as Should have just Surrendered but I have made it Peter/Tim for all you lovely people)

    Summary
    Anthology containing:

    Recall of the living

    They didn’t remember. Nobody did...

    But in typical Peter Parker fashion, Peter Parker was unlucky enough to remember.

    Big and Loud

    “It’s so loud.”

    “Like I said, it’s gonna be, half-pint.”

    “Heh,” Peter huffs a sad laugh. “But I mean everything. Here. Not just them.”

    “Hmmmm,” Tony stops his fiddling--he wasn’t actually doing anything anyway, just finding something to occupy his hands--and waits. He is hoping Peter will say more, but he doesn’t want to push, and wouldn’t know how even if he did. “I know we have to talk about this, but I have no fucking idea how to.”

    Driving Lessons, or the first time Peter Parker sees Tony Stark have a panic attack

    Tony was already nervous, and Peter really needs to learn how to read the room.

    May and Pepper's Kids

    “You know, we do have extra floors at the tower,” Pepper is only partly joking.

    “Let’s not get crazy,” May snorts. “And he may not realize it now, but I’ll give it another week or two until he’s ready for a break. Teenagers are A LOT.”

    “Don’t tell him that. He’ll probably be horribly offended someone is talking about Peter that way.”

    “No, I’m gonna let him figure that one out on his own. Preferably when I’m relaxing at a spa somewhere far far away.”

    “We’ll make a date, then. Tell you what,” Pepper sits up. “I’ll go get our children and get them to actually be productive, while you and I will not indulge in maladaptive stress relief and actually take a breath tonight.”

    A Little Tumble

    But once Peter is on his own two feet in a pair of sneakers on the ground, he becomes a walking, talking disaster. Tony is now used to the frequent bangs, clangs, and squeaky curses that come with Peter joining him in the lab. Or the living room. Or walking on the sidewalk. Or sitting in the dining room. Spiderman can do whatever a spider can. Peter Parker would find a way to trip on an ant.

    Bright Lights and Back Home

    When they arrived in the city, five of the cars swerved off towards Manhattan, down to the Tower that Tony had taken off the market with promises over the car speakers that they’d all see Peter soon. He’d felt a bit embarrassed they all felt the need to promise that specifically to him, but May had merely patted his hand and smiled gently, so he thought maybe it was ok.

    “So I guess you’re an Avenger now,” she’d teased, reaching over to pinch his cheek.

    “May…”

    “More like a team mascot,” Mr. Stark’s voice came over the speakers. “Happy, you remember the exit to get off?”

    Blue holograms, red eyes

    “You figure it out, kid?” The glass door to the lab hisses open once the retinal scanner clears him. He carries the two mugs around the corner while Dum-E beeps at him. “Just let--” Tony stops in his tracks.

    Oh no. Peter is sitting on the floor in the center of the large lab, staring ahead at a wavy, blue hologram. His Stark Pad lies abandoned in his lap. Tony hears his own voice, the message he recorded before the team descended on Sanctuary, determined to destroy Thanos and reverse his actions, or die trying.

    Bust a gut, Tones

    “I’m fine, Peter,” he says, probably more harshly than he intends to, because he immediately sighs and his hands loosen on the steering wheel. “Really, I’m ok. Would I lie to you?”

    “Yes,” Peter deadpans. Because he would about something like this.

    “You got me there,” Mr. Stark reaches out and punches his knee playfully. “But really, don’t worry about it.”

    “Promise you’ll tell me if there is?” Peter can’t help but think back to a few weeks ago, when he’d thrown a tantrum and Mr. Stark ran after him, and almost got shot by a piece-of-shit mugger. When he’d refused to lie and say he’d never die.

    “Of course, kiddo,” Mr. Stark throws a small smile at him. The Compound is probably less than a quarter-mile away. “My stomach is just feeling a little off. Probably nerves.”

    An Unwanted Christmas Gift

    Tony Stark hates Christmas, Peter and Pepper love Christmas, May has to work, and everyone gets norovirus.

    That's it. That's the story.

    Mid-winter Siesta

    “‘M not tired,” Peter rubs his eyes when they reach the heavy oak door of his room, obviously very tired. He shivers. “‘M jus’ cold.”

    “Probably because you’re tired,” Tony opens the door and walks Peter through, deliberately ignoring the mess of clothes and books on the floor.

    “May always says that, too.”

    “Probably because it’s right,” Tony has no idea if it’s right, but his mother always said it. Pepper says it. It sounds right. Maybe it’s a Parent Thing. “So get those covers I paid too much for off the floor and get in bed.”

    Peter Parker was happy with his life. He was in college and acing his classes, he had a future at Stark Industries, he and Mr. Stark were getting closer, and Spider Man was officially in the Avengers Initiative. Everything was good.

    Then Parker Luck had to fuck it all up.

    Again.

    Or, where Peter falls into another world where Batman runs the mob, he gains four sugar daddies, and is best friends with a clown's girlfriend.

    He really needs a break.

    Summary

    Tony Stark. Genius. Billionaire. Philanthropist. Ironman. (Reckless. Lonely. Father.)

    Harry Potter. The Boy Who Lived. The Chosen One. Wizard. (The Master of Death. Survivor. Breaking.)

    Tony Stark never thought he would be a father. But when a lawyer comes knocking and truths become evident, he realizes that he can’t let his son walk out of his life. For Harry, acknowledging his relationship with Tony is a last-ditch effort to gain freedom and control over his life. Although the journey might not be easy, Tony and Harry learn to heal and become a family, facing trials and tribulations on the way such as a scheming Death, a Mad Titian, Dark Wizards, dangerous Doctors, and living Wards. Minor Peter Parker/Harry Potter. No pairings for Tony. Strong T rating for talk of sensitive subject matter. No explicit sexual content, but an author who uses too much bad language.

    (Look forward to Runic magic, Quantum Theory, Peter Parker, lots of Marvel villains, and a author who tries too hard.)

    When Peter's Teacher announces that his Graduating Class's Senior Trip is going to be to Stark Industries, the place where Peter has an internship, and where he spends so much of his free time, he is... less than enthused. No one believes his Internship is real and frankly, he just doesn't want to deal with it, but between May and Mr. Stark, he doesn't really think he's going to get much of a choice.
    He's going to have to go
    At least Ned is excited about it.
    And hey, he has a month till the actual day, maybe he'll fall into a pit or get carried away by a stork-themed villain or fall into a Coma or something before the dreaded Field Trip
