Summary
After the deaths of his parents, Peter Parker—along with his two other siblings—were put under the care of his alcoholic aunt. Twelve years later, Peter is juggling life as a sixteen-year-old caretaker of his four cousins, a prodigious student, and a Pizza King employee. Oh yeah, and he’s Spider-Man.
As things start to unfurl, Tony Stark—Peter’s mentor—starts to suspect some issues at home. Peter can’t let his role model know anything or else he risks losing their budding relationship or, more importantly, his family.
____
TLDR: Aunt May sucks, Peter has to pick up the slack because she’s not only his guardian, but the guardian of his two other siblings & her own four kids. Peter is trying his best. Tony wants to help.

Summary
What, outside of the famed Parker luck that Peter has become painfully familiar with, can explain his disaster of a life?
Confidence hadn’t kept his parents’ plane from falling from the sky. Preparation hadn’t stopped the copper bullets from ripping through the flesh of his aunt and uncle, tearing Peter for the second time in his short life from the people tasked with taking care of him.
Out of the hundreds of New York foster homes, Peter has the delightful opportunity of being placed into a house where the air is constantly thick with tension, the foster father a venomous snake, lurking for what seemed to be hours in an eerie calm until it's finally time for him to strike.
---
Peter has to navigate the events of Spider-Man: Homecoming while having Thaddeus Ross as a deadbeat foster parent. Can Bucky's help finally break Peter out of the cycle of dead, absent, and abusive adults that he's found himself trapped in?

Summary
“You look really well,” Jesper says then, unable to help himself.
“I know,” Wylan says plainly, with a small shrug. “It’s classic me. Came to college and got pretty.”
Jesper laughs, although he’s not fully sure why. It just feels like such a Wylan response to give, whatever that could mean; a little self-deprecating, and also gesturing to the understanding—the knowledge—that they have of each other. Is it classic Wylan, to do this? Only Jesper would be able to tell. Only they could understand each other like this, even now.
–
Jesper and Wylan aren’t friends in school, but they certainly aren’t strangers, no matter how much they try to act like it. In university, their lives continue to weave in and out of one another’s, pushing and pulling each other through their insecurities, pasts, and other relationships. But they always seem to come back to this fact—they can never be strangers.

Summary
In hindsight he knows that he saw this coming. He recognised the signs with more than enough time to have alerted May, or anyone on what he knew was progressing. But in the end, he just really wanted it to not be true. Just to be a figment of his paranoid over-reactive teenage mind, conjuring up the worst possible scenario. Maybe he had just seen it so much out on the streets as Spiderman that he was bringing it home with him, still seeing the darkness in those kinds of people's eyes… in the way they moved and spoke. Or maybe he had just assumed that the blearing alarms of his spider-sense from the moment he shook hands with the guy was just aftershocks of the armed robbery he had just wrapped up only moments ago.
Hindsight can be a real bitch sometimes.
