    Summary

    Dante settled into the worn, faded cushions of the seat, a soft chuckle escaping his lips as he glanced at his brother. “Do you remember what we used to do as kids?” he teased, his eyes twinkling with nostalgia.
    Vergil's face contorted into one of absolute revulsion, his lip curling in disdain. He pierced Dante with a sharp, contemptuous gaze that seemed to dismiss the very notion. “Absolutely not, Dante,” he retorted, his voice dripping with irritation. “I will not engage in such a ridiculous charade,” he spat.

    Vergil may be a master at many forms of battle, but fatherhood? That's one conflict he still needs to figure out. Dante proposes an unconventional solution when Nero's birthday approaches: a good old-fashioned twin switch. For once, it's not the worst idea his younger brother has had—much to his reluctant acceptance at the wager of competing with his brother. There's just one catch: Vergil must stumble through maintaining his brother's chaotic persona...

    Summary

    While waiting in the carpool line, Tony receives an email for Peter's Reading and Comprehension teacher. And it's not a pleasant one. It's confusing. The teacher is claiming that Peter, his Peter has been arguing with her, refusing to do his work, and is failing the class as a result. It doesn't make any sense and when he asks Peter about it, he doesn't get any answers.

    It takes some time and a lot of patcience to get Peter to talk about his side of the story. But once he does, Tony and Pepper are there to help him, support him, and make everything right.

    Or:

    After being assigned a writing exercise Peter's not prepared to complete, Tony and Pepper advocate for him to receive reasonable and appropriate educational accommodations.

    Summary

    After coming to live with Tony and Pepper, Peter begins to have nightmares. His therapist tells him it's okay; that nightmares are a perfectly normal part of the healing process. Peter, however, is dubious. He's enhanced. He's supposed to be a superhero. And that's exactly why he doesn't want Tony to know about them. But the worst part of the constant nightmares is the way they make him feel like he shouldn't put on the new Spider-Suit. In fact, he's starting to wonder if he should have ever become Spider-Man at all.

    Summary

    After six years of being in the foster care system, fourteen year old Peter Parker somehow managed to win an opportunity to meet his hero. The one and only Tony Stark. 


    “Not much of a talker is he,” Tony casually stated, making Peter stomach churn with unease. He had no idea where the man was going with his assessment and wasn’t really sure how to properly defend himself. Thankfully, he didn’t have to.

    “Peter has what they call selective mutism,” the social worker replied. “So, no. I suppose he’s not much of a talker.”

    Tony leaned back in his chair and arched his eyebrow. “He doesn’t talk at all?”

    “I’ve been his social worker for six years and I’ve never heard more than a peep out of him,” the social worker said, this time, turning towards Peter to offer him a reassuring smile.

    Summary

    Steve looked up, expecting to see his friend’s exhausted face, but instead found him positively grinning with a small paper lunch sack in his hand.

    “You seem awfully happy,” said Steve in lieu of a greeting.

    Natasha and Bucky chose that moment to enter the common room as well, wearing sweaty gym clothes and with messed-up hair. “Hey Sam,” said Natasha. “How terrible was the kid?”

    “I take everything back I ever said.” Sam unrolled the top of the lunch sack and showed them its contents. “He brought cookies! You’ve gotta try one, they’re literally the best things I’ve ever tasted in my life.”

     

    Aka, the fic in which Peter volunteers at the VA with Sam, who ends up practically adopting him and tells the whole team, making them all want to meet the fabled kid. Turns out, he might be a lot more familiar than they thought.
