    Summary

    The spider bite didn’t just give Peter Parker powers. It took his sight, his family, and any chance at a normal life.

    Haunted by loss and hunted by Oscorp, Peter let his strange new instincts take over. The boy he was faded, and something feral took its place—until the Avengers found him and gave him a reason to be human again.

    Summary

    Peter should have known that something was wrong when he found a place he could afford.

    He should have also known that something was off the second she said the price - not in a dramatic, gut-punch, spider-sense kind of way - no alarms blaring in his head, no prickling at the back of his neck - but in a quieter, more I’m-getting-scammed-somehow way. The kind that came from years of stretching rent money, from scrolling listings at two in the morning and doing depressing math in his head.

    New York didn’t do “cheap.” Not like this, at least, and definitely not without a catch.

    Still, he followed the real estate agent inside.

    Summary

    Peter came through the window wrong, and that was the first thing Harley noticed.

    Or, the "good" ending of my other fic, pareidolia.

    Summary

    The apartment was smaller than the word apartment deserved.

    Calling it a box would have been more honest. Four walls, a ceiling low enough that Peter felt like he’d bang his head trying to stand up from unpacking, and a window that technically opened but jammed half the time. The place smelled faintly of mildew, maybe because of the carpet - or maybe because this whole building had given up on life a few decades ago and was just waiting for someone merciful to bulldoze it.

    He told himself it was fine. He told himself worse things had happened. Which, technically, was true.

    That didn’t make him feel any better.

    Summary

    My pride stings a little at being so underestimated by a species that couldn’t even outrun a particularly determined turtle if their life depended on it. Look, I’m no Sha’Carri Richardson, but I’m pretty proud of my seven-minute mile. I worked hard for it. I haven’t been able to handle myself like this since I was... well, since I left Earth.

    “Y’know what? Let’s settle this once and for all. I could use an endurance test anyway. Good for my cardio.”

    Dr. Bones perks up. “You’ll do a demonstration?”

    “Absolutely. Give me two rest days and a warmup, then I’ll show you what the average human athlete can do.”

    -----

    AKA, Grace doesn't consider himself much of an athlete, but he's no slouch either. And he's got the physical prowess of his whole species to represent!

    The xenobiology team, on the other hand, is horrified to learn what a 'persistence hunter' is.
