    Summary

    Peter Parker, like any 14 year old superhero mutant, really wants to catch a break. And yet somehow, he never gets one. He's just a friendly neighborhood Spider-Man, nothing special, so what gives?

    Well, that's only if you don't look at his biology ever since the radioactive spider bite. Or his extensive track record of running away from his guardians and that he was homeless for a bit. Or the amount of people in his life that have died because he's some kind of bad luck charm. Or that his foster-dad is Tony Stark now.

    Or 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 strange vigilantes that keep stalking him.

    He thinks they mean well, but they're really weird. Besides that Red Hood guy. He's pretty cool. Though something about them- especially Nightwing- is familiar, that's not important. He has enough on his plate right now, considering there are multiple people trying to upend the fabric of time and space. He can figure out the other details later.

    Summary

    "Maybe," Peter thought, "I can make a life here."
    Hence the tears and the guilt and the grief, because was Peter allowed to move on? Was he allowed to… to leave it all behind? Leave all the bad things in the past?
    Peter was "The Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man!" after all, and wasn’t he letting Queens - his people - down if he didn’t fight tooth and nail to get back to them?
    or

    Peter's tired. He's so tired, and he doesn't know what to do, but maybe things will get better.
    (They do.)

    Summary

    People who lived outside of Gotham City would most often think of it in terms of its heroes and villains. About Batman and Robin, Joker and Harley Quinn.

    People who actually live in Gotham City would only think of one thing: surviving.

    Who cares about the people in costumes when your house has been bombed for the fifth time, or your wife has been taken hostage just because she worked in a bank?

    Or, in your case, when you have to make regular deliveries to places where even Batman feared to tread?

    Because let's face it. In a world full of superheroes and costumed villains, the real heroes are the ones who make sure that people get their pizzas in forty-five minutes or less.

    Summary

    “Thank you, sir.” Peter turned facing M.J. and Ned’s silhouettes that wobbled against the rising sun.

    “Call me Stephen,” Doctor Strange said.

    Peter smiled, “Thank you, Stephen.” The name felt odd coming out of his mouth.

    The laugh was slight, barely even one. “Still feels weird.” Stephen smiled; it was small and didn’t cause the edges of his eyes to crease.

    “I’ll see you around.”

    The Magician stared at him, eyes mourning something already lost. “Good luck kid.”

    Or: spider-man in gotham, just with identity.

    Summary

    It only took ten seconds for everything to fall apart. Which, to Peter Parker, felt like some kind of record. Now he's been turned to dust and thrown into green goo in a city on an Earth unlike his own. Faced with strange dreams and figuring his place in a place infested with muck and crime... it's up to Peter to figure out the kind of Spider-Man needed in an unfriendly neighbourhood.

    AKA another what if Spider-Man was with the Batman AU.

    featuring a soul stone embedded in a sternum, a group of miscommunicating siblings, clones, and a cult with a sinister plot to bring about doom.

     

    on indefinite hiatus due to writers block, an exhausting job, and other stories requiring my attention. not abandoned, however much people ask, just taking a breather x

    Edit (12/25): lil update for Christmas, last chapters fully planned and awaiting writing x
