    Summary

    “Your prints were a match for a missing persons case from ten years ago. A little boy who was kidnapped.”

    The officer pulls out a picture that she turns toward Peter. It’s a little boy around four years old, with curly brown hair. “That’s you,” she says.

    Peter shakes his head.

    “Do you remember how you got to that park? Who left you there?”

    “Lady, I don’t remember jack shit,” Peter says. “I was like four. No one remembers shit from when they were four.”

    Or: the biodad au where Peter gets arrested for selling drugs, and that actually improves his life.

    It’s 2019. In a universe where Thanos didn’t snap, Bucky is still making amends for his crimes as the Winter Soldier. Which includes that time he kidnapped Tony Stark’s kid in 2007. 12 years later, after tracking Nicholas Stark down again on a trip that takes him halfway around the world, he drops the teenager now known as Peter Parker off on Tony’s doorstep.

    Then Peter and Tony are left to deal with the aftermath.

    Summary

    Soulmates are definite in the universe. Nobody knows exactly why they exist, or what dictates who is bonded to who, the only thing known is that they are never wrong. But Peter"s not so sure about that.

    Living at the group home had taught Peter a lot about laying low and how to stay alive when nobody cares. But he"d always clung to the hope of the shadow at his feet reflecting his soulmate that had watched over him for years.

    Typical that his soulmate is actually a superhero that Peter is convinced shouldn"t want anything to do with him. Maybe, just this once, the Universe was wrong.

    But Tony Stark is desperate to prove that it is right.

    Summary

    Minutes tick away, and by the time Tony finishes the three emails Pepper had copied him into, Peter is a snoring ball in his lap. Shutting his laptop, he carefully leans forward to place it on the coffee table, drawing back with the forgotten can of root beer in his hands. Peter prefers his sodas flat when he drinks them—probably because he’s weird and has no sense of taste—so Tony pops the tab open with a soft hiss and settles it on the side table.

    Tipping his head back on the couch, he lowers his fingers to run absentminded tracks through Peter’s curls.

    He’s my weird kid, though, he thinks with a smile, already drifting into sleep himself.

    Summary

    Home, home, home home home. It played on loop in Peter’s brain, loud and tumbling and distracting…

    But not in a way that would have him miss the silver Audi speeding toward him in the opposite direction, a sight that made him do a double-take for two reasons.

    One, because the fancy car was a foreign presence after nothing but rusty, dented Ford pickups for the past hour.

    And two, he was pretty sure that was Tony in the driver’s seat.

    (OR: Peter makes his way home after being kidnapped.)
